Are those Rosson headphones on the stand? They look beautiful but I’ve never heard them.
shane are you hoarding controllers?..
I had to get a box just for my stupid remote controls! 8 of them.
Are those solitaire in the corner? How do you like them? Can’t find much info on them and what I do find seems super mixed reviews tbh
I’m going to have to ask of you to dispose of them. Do you expect me to go back to normal after witnessing that??
Pretty happy with this, best allrounder ive had. might sell it if the aeon 2 noire is solid. hoping the amp will match okay, its the only amp ive got around
That is a nice amp/DAC combo.
im serious about the controller thing
the first thing i noticed coming off of the 789 with ares2 into v280 with ares2 was the gigantius soundstage, so when i saw the 8xx i thought to myself i may as well go all out on soundstage, going to be interesting
I am still trying to figure out what all effects stage. Its so wierd. My iems on my dap are huge as hell. My focal clears on my dap → portable amp → clear are huge as hell. Now put the clears directly on the dap or the iems on the amp? Smol and congestested all around. Realy annoying sources don’t just work the same on all gear if I’m honest
Edit: I hate myself a little. Mistyped “small” and apparently I use “smol” so much thats what it decided to correct to…
It’s funny that you post that. I used to have an english bull terrier. We were inseparable. If anything took my attention away from him, he would destroy it. Many remotes died horrible deaths until I learned to put them on a top shelf.
I have mentioned to my wife many times that if we still had him, he would cost me a FORTUNE today in smart phones.
I know this is a repost (posted in listening spaces), but I like to keep these pics in this thread to have a history.
This is my endgame now. Not that items won’t be updated from time to time. IE. Different solid state amp, different OTL amp, different hybrid amp, etc.
Feeling VERY good about this collection now. Nothing I really Want to move and nothing I really Have to buy.
Pleasantly surprised by the LD MKIII.
Bifrost 2 > Loki + > Jotunheim 2 > Focal Elex.
Monoprice 49" Dark Matter DQHD 120Hz monitor.
I’m getting close. Would like one of those MG Clears some day.
I think this counts as endgame. Of course there’s upgrades in the far future, but this is more than endgame material imo and will last me a long time.
Berkeley Audio Alpha DAC Series 1, Singxer SU-1 DDC, Classe CA-150 Amp, Violectric v220 Headphone Amp / Preamp, Holt Hill Audio Cionnsailes speakers, Beyerdynamic T1.2 cans, Questyle QP2R DAP, Jomo Flamenco and Final Audio B3 IEMs.
I gotta try out Flamencos at some point, currently looking at getting Tangos and some custom Hakas.
Neat setup. The Playstation thing in the middle makes the whole setup look like a spaceship.
Btw had no idea Monoprice makes monitors!!!
Thanks,
The thing in the middle is a steering wheel, I just don’t have the wheel on atm.
It is a very nice monitor.
Looks sick. Love the room treatment and wooden stands too
