https://www.massdrop.com/buy/massdrop-plus-universal-iems New Massdrop IEMs from.... Massdrop? Yup. Massdrop introduces their first audiophile product under their own brand name: the PLUS universal in-ear monitors. Since everyone is off at RMAF, I figured I’d go ahead and start a thread on...

3.2.15   Bjork  -  Vulnicura         It's something I remember well: my 10-year-old self watching Bjork's "Human Behavior" music video over and over, eyes wide and filled with wonder. Growing up, she was one of the few female artists I truly admired (the other being Paula Abdul, mostly...

1.8.15   Panda Bear  -  Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper         Noah Lennox is a good foil for bandmate Avey Tare. Instead of manic screams, he sings with steady longing. Instead of violent, acid fried head jangles, he prefers to dabble in the sunbaked domain of west coast radio...

Updates: Haven't been too well this past month, so there've been little in the way of updates on my part. I have a lot I'd like to talk about in the coming weeks. Anyway.     12.5.14   Mr. Twin Sister  -  Mr. Twin Sister       Great is my affection for this band. On their early EPs...

Note: Decided to do things a bit differently going forward. Instead of delivering one long post every month or two, I'd rather just make a smaller post every day or two. I'll start with two week blocks and see how that goes.     11.14.14   Ariel Pink  -  Pom Pom       Ariel Pink has...

      d i a r y  o f  a  s o m e t h i n g  s o m e t h i n g τρεις             A continuation of this. Talk to me or suggest something for me to write about. Talk amongst yourselves. Share you thoughts on music or headphones or whatevs. IDK.  

. - * - . . - * - . . - * - . . - * - . . - * - .   "It's not an ordinary snowman. It's a man from outer space."       Crappy rundown venues, heckling drunks, a noxious cloud of exhaled cigarettes: all of these things are highly unpleasant. Yet the night still seems valuable. The humanity...

        .-*-..-*-..-*-. .-*-..-*-.   "Oh universe, sing in reverse."     A backwards origin story:   Any original meaning passed down has been lost, and everything within has been rendered into incoherency like the liquid fat dripping from a cremated body. The diary of a something...

the EnigmA       Presenting a new closed-back orthodynamic headphone: the Enigma.    This is the latest creation from head-fi member and sound engineer, LFF.   No official launch yet, but folks have listened to these at the recent Bay Area Meet, so I thought I'd go ahead and start...

Audio-Technica Ear Suit W11LTD           http://popculture.blog.so-net.ne.jp/2012-10-12   Not sure how legit this is, as it looks identical to the ESW9 aside from the text "limited edition" on the cups. Could be a place holder from the actual thing.   I say this because...

The Diary Entries of a Little Girl Nearing who is now In Her 30s! Or: How I Learned to Stop Being Productive and Love Posting in MF's Thread   Part 2: Electric Boogaloo     [for Ardgedee]             Welcome to the new new diary thread. The old one was a little...

There seem to be a few other "clubs" scattered 'round the head-fi summit, so I thought I'd make one for past and present Qualia owners, as well as anyone with general interested in them.   Though they're not without their flaws and idiosyncrasies, these headphones remain one of my all-time...

                Wondering if there are any players here. If so, what do you play? Whom do you play? Do you play on the competitive level or in tournaments?   Do you count and watch frames, you obsessive person?

  SR-507     Five zero seven: Bright and beautiful sounding,  This thread is for you.

Hello friends and compatriots.   I've taken it upon myself to give our "tribe" another clearing in which to set up our grass huts and start hunting, gathering, and making pottery in lewd shapes or whatever barbarous things we do to pass the time. Hopefully this doesn't offend any of the...

Alright.   Having thought about it for some time, and having contacted Takei about it, I've decided to take the plunge and order up a TakeT H2+ and its accompanying TR2 box. This thread is meant to document my journey with this rather esoteric giant among world class headphones. I think it's...

Hello fellow Head-Fiers.   The purpose of this thread is to talk about stays in the hospital. As someone with a chronic disease that requires hospitalization every now and then, it's a topic I'm curious about.   -->What do you do for your audiophile fix when you're in the hospital...

So I've heard about this drug called 300B. It's an expensive habit, but users say it makes you hear things in a whole new way, that it gets you to a place most other tubes can't.   For those of you hooked, tell me all about your tube trips.     1. What makes 300B special to you over...

Hello fellow head-fi members,   I thought this was the best place to put this thread, as it has to do with shipping more than headphones.   I'm trying to work with a reputable head-fi member to get a pair of AKG K1000 shipped from Denmark to where I live in the US. I've got the money for...
