If I had the cash to fly across the world I'd spend it on headphones instead -_-

My RMAF/CanJam essay: RMAF/CanJam 2012 - Ding Dong the Past is Dead... Pushin' it Forward

Just went live at Positive Feedback!!

 

I named my time w/ the ALO Audio Studio Six headphone amp + my Audeze LCD3's my "most cherished listening experience"

at RMAF 2012!!  But NOT just because of the gear.  PLS check out the review...

 

 

I'm givin all you guys props!!

Are the FAD prototype phones you are referring to the $8000 stainless-steel Muramassa VIII?

Found the answer to my question.

In a head-fi thread on the subject of the Muramasa VIII.

It seems the Muramasa project was shelved, with a handful or so or even fewer exemplars seeing the

light.

What tamahome77 was so impressed with is a series of plastic headphones FAD is developing.

The top price for the phones in this series is said to be $1,250.

And - as per tamahome77's auditon as posted to the Muramas VIII thread - better than both the $2000

Fostex TH900 and the $2000.LCD-3.

FAD says  it will come.out early next year.

ThanX!!  I put alot into that article.

Wait til you guys see my piece in The Daily Swarm.com this Friday!  I give ALL of you credit, and Jude, for helping to educate me on this spectacular sonic voyage into a new audio frontier - and that after fifteen years in the high end audio and music industries!!!!

 

You guys are the stars of the article (about CanJam/RMAF, and personal audio).  I'm also taking a bit of a chance here, as it's a -I'm not holdin' back sh__- type of piece where I say things that the old guard may not like,  But, f___ that.  My duty as an audio journalist is to report on the PRESENT.  Some people are simply clueless about the fact that the world is shrinking; physically (think living space) and digitally!  Well, I LOVE analog too (I'm not referring to just digital music playback here, but the digital revolution).  Well, I could go on..  But I'm psyched to give you all your due, from a person who's dedicated most of his life to the pursuit of state-of-the-art music reproduction for the home!!
