dammit man, share a link to where you bought them from!
Ordered a Schiit Asgard 3 w/ Multibit DAC for my home office setup. It should be all that I need since I will only be using it while working.
Did you get a B-unit?
Did you also get those? In that case how do you like them?
Just arrived today.
The only IEMs in my inventory - everything else is circumaural or earbuds. Z’s review convinced me on these.
My only other experience with IEMs was some Sennheiser Momentums I tried in 2017 and hated. I don’t think I was putting them in the right way, which caused a huge drop in sound quality.
I read some stuff on earphone fit and tried it with my new Moondrop Starfields today. So far, so good. I think I’ll totally be getting my money’s worth on these. It’s a very alluring sound. Since I’m a total IEM noob I can’t really say anything other than “they sound way better then the Momentums I was probably inserting wrong three years ago!”
Yes, I did…even though it was only 10 dollars off.
So I’ve waited patiently for my Lawton cups (which actually arrived today), but I’ve wanted another open-back headphone to compliment my LCD-X, which would reside at my computer setup.
I also needed another amp for said setup (I returned my RNHP-#2 in anticipation of the Fidelice RNHP).
With the Coronavirus likely locking us down here in L.A. in the near future, I ordered myself a Focal Clear Pro and another RNHP; next day delivery!
I was in there peeking. I need another amp like I need Corona Virus, but I was thinking “If it’s $175.00…”
Yessss. Make the stack reach the sky…
What was your reaction on seeing the cups in person? I have been debating doing a tune-up, but it would cost more than the headphones did. I got a deal on a demo pair. I am thinking maybe I should just buy the Cascades and sell the TH-610’s if the Cascades are what I hope they are.
Dude, the cascades are amazing. I regret not buying them off of my friend when he offered them at an amazing price. The TH610 are great also though. I do prefer the Cascades over the TH610 by the slightest of margins, for fun usage. For something more balanced, the TH610 are the better fit.
joined 4 cheap months of tidal…
now i need to figure out if i’ll hear any difference between high, hifi, or master
As @Hazi59 said, I’ve heard nothing but good regarding the Cascades.
I really like the cups. I’ll post some pics in the TH-00 discontinued-now sort of Lawton thread.
Which wood did you buy? I’d love to see a pic of the cups before install.
Cool!
What do the insides look like?
Thanks.
Unfinished wood with a about a 5/8” thickness foam circle attached. For anti-resonance, I assume.
I’ll take pictures of the mod and post.
There is so much to unpack here:
1.What does a city like LA look like during quarantine? It must be an amazing contrast to it’s usual energy. Even my little costal NorCal town is weirdly quiet now.

The Clears are great and the combo with the RNHP is amazing.

Another RNHP. He said “another.” I love it!
