"I Give it a Year" - had a few laughs, but otherwise just kind of stupid...Im only mentioning it because if you get the opportunity to see it just for the Stephen Merchant scenes, it's worth it. The guy is hilarious over about 5-10min of total screen time. 

  The original holds up so well, too...I get into it every time I come across it. Fantastic film. 

  Yep, I swear by his crossfeed circuit. I love that I can only really notice it when I dont have it. If it stood out on each track I'd consider it a poor design. It helps headphones sound more natural, thus less noticable that you're listening that way.    I've been using his gear for years...

  Definitely not my experience. Jan's crossfeed circuit allows for a more natural prsentation across the board to my ears. It's usually when I am without it that I can tell the difference...not so much when I have it engaged. To me, that's a sign that it's a beautiful design. 

    You usually don't like Spielberg, Bond films, or Wes Anderson? Might be easier to just say what you DO like...the list would be a lot shorter, methinks lol

  That's what kept happening to me when I listened while laying in bed...I'd doze off lol. 

  That's actually a great idea...listening while watching a sporting event. See, this is why I ask you guys...GENIUS!!

Some of you guys re-watch Rob Zombie films? 

  Glad you enjoyed it. I can always tell when I love a film, because I think about it quite often in the days following the viewing. I absolutely love simple films about life...no big explosions or manufactured drama...just a snapshot in the lives of two people. It had realism and depth, and I...

    I'm envious of that! Definitely gotta work on it. I think Im going to move my headphone rig to the bedside...that way I can lay back and enjoy the music in comfort. I think maybe that's partly why I struggle a bit at times. 

  Yep, as much as I love the pelican case for transporting them, no way I'd wear them while out and about. 

  Oh really? Some of the criticisms Ive read seemed to indicate it was fantastical in certain aspects...maybe I'm thinking of the wrong movie

I picked some brains a while back on another forum pertaining to speakers, so thought I'd do the same here but focus more on headphone users...   I'm curious as to how you guys listen to music. Do you listen primarily when you're doing something else, such as driving or working? Do you...

I get the feeling La La Land is going to be sort of similar to Birdman, in the sense that critics really appreciate the artistry and technical merit, but many will find the story sort of abstract and borderline boring. For those who have seen both, is that accurate at all? Or am I way off base? 

  Yes indeed! Good to see you :)  I went on a self-imposed hiatus last year when I was in the process of buying a house...the temptation was just too great and I didn't trust myself lol   Glad to be back, cause I really enjoy the movie talk, especially with regulars like yourself, tdock, and...

Hey guys...glad to see the movie talk is still flowin' in here!   Some recent scores from yours truly:    "No Escape"...critics did NOT like this, but the people did. Unrealistic as hell, but I admit, I was entertained in a big way. 7.9/10   "Paterson"...I'm biased. Jim Jarmusch is my...

Hey guys...my first post in a long, long time...decided to buy a house, so I exiled myself from Head-fi so as to avoid any distractions lol.    Glad to see so many still loving their X, and also so many NEW X owners...truly an amazing headphone. I've had mine over two years now and still just...

  Congrats!! :)

  For some reason it's always the nicest looking ones that people say make the biggest difference 

The premise of that film would typically appeal to me in a huge way. But for whatever reason I have zero interest. Your feedback just reinforces that.

    Wow, I wish I was back in college, because I would SO write a paper on this film. I was absolutely fascinated by it. At first I thought it was just a satirical fish-out-of-water movie, but it was far more than that. It makes you think on so many levels, both about Hiter's reign in the 30s...

Im always intrigued when the topic of a headphone's (or speaker) bass comes up. This is something that is always good to flesh out a bit, because in my opinion there are two main camps - those who truly appreciate bass, and those who just get off on low end noise. My idea of bass is clean...

Ive had it for a while now on my X...it makes a big difference yep. I posted some pics a few months back in this thread (or may have been the lcd4 thread)...ill PM them to you if you like. I cant say whether the price will be worth it for u, but I find it a fantastic upgrade.

Definitely not hollow...it gave a nice weight to the overall impact. I love how these things image, and they created a nice little soundstage that provided some dimension. Vocals were beautifully clear and the dynamics of action scenes were very impressive. The scene where those creatures that...
