Thanks!

Here’s a first-impressions post:

HiFiMan Sundara

I got the Sundara today. I’ve listened to them throughout the day. Here’s my mini early impressions: Packaging: Great. Inspires confidence, unlike some other brands… Build: They look great and feel better built than my 6XX. We’ll see how lucky I’m gonna be in the future, with so many people having quality complains with Hifiman. Fingers crossed. [image] Fit: They’re not bad, actually. Weight is distributed nicely and pads are big and wrap my ears well. Top band is alri…

More music:

Forrest. – Why Not Me (ft. Biskwiq) (Lyrics) [CC]

Forrest. – So Good (feat. Khai Dreams) (Lyrics) [CC]

Forrest. – Your Soul (ft. Biskwiq) (Lyrics) [CC]

Rainbows

[Pr3ssAltF4]

That first tune tho. I’m about to buy it lol.

[BluJay614]

Ended up caving and bought the MP3 on Amazon. Couldn’t find them on FLAC anywhere.

[Pr3ssAltF4]

Yea. I’m buying this.

[BluJay614]

I only really liked three of the songs, so I passed up on the whole album.

[fxxr]

My replacement DT 770s arrived. Interestingly, this box had more papers in it… make me wonder if the previous pair was not truly new…

Anyway, they sound great! They’re bassier than I remembered, lol.

I think I’m ready to add the mini-XLR plug and also try the napkin treble mod, maybe.
I’ll try to hold off until Friday to do this right, during daytime, with lots of light and time, but we’ll see

Mangird. I wanna say Man-bird to be honest

[Bitsy_Ross]

RCA cables and Speaker stands, now just need some new speakers too thinking, Klipsch RP-400M’s

[Nick_Mimi]

I had choices, the RME-ADI-2FS made the most sense for me and my needs. It’s been a few days and still going through the features and all it’s abilities.

These come in a subscribtion, like thing? Love Slime not so much a fan of shion but Rimuru cute either way haha. also that boosted gear… I will never forget that time haha. BOOOST BOOOST BOOOOSTOOOOO ( dub had such a better dragon voice)

Placed a deposit on a SW51+.

Waiting game begins.

@Bitsy_Ross

now just need some new speakers too

That’s what I thought – Because if it’s Soundrise stands, I think these Edifiers cost less than the stands.

Agreed, Slime was funny. Rimuru is great, and while Shion is not best girl (that is Raphtalia, FIGHT ME), but she is still good girl, and I enjoy her.
Dont know what Im gonna do with the boosted gear, as jewelry isnt really my thing (beyond a decent watch or some shades), but I agree, the Dub did have an awesome dragon voice.

@Shiivu

These come in a subscribtion, like thing?

Yes, Otaku Box. It is a monthly box, and subscribers can buy previous figures.

Anime box with scale figures, voting, and ecchi!

As a note, while this link will give $5 off, I do get a $5 kick back from it in the form of a credit towards next months box. Personally, use it or not, I dont care. If you wanna give it a shot, why not save a bit?
