I finally did it. I got my Headphoneus Supremus title after some 2 years and 3 months of contributing to this great forum.

Over that period of time i've gone from having a modest collection of phones comprising just a pair of Beyer DT531s, Stax Lambda Nova and Stax SR001 to now where I own.... well see below for a list of stuff

Damn, let that be a warning to all the newbies and veterans alike. The standard greeting of Welcome to Head-Fi and sorry about your wallet is well earned :p


Anyway, I hope that in the two years that i've been here that I haven't spammed the place up too much and that i've made a good contribution to the forum making it the fantastic place that it is.

What's really surprised me is that it's only take me Two months to go from 1000 to 1550 posts

I suppose that's what unemployment does to a person. Nothing much else to except sleep and post on Head-Fi.


Anyway, here's to Head-Fi, the greatest audio forum on the 'net bar none! Long may it continue to thrive.

Congratulations! I would have to say I look forward to your posts, they are interesting, on topic and are well thought out. Now that you are Jude's pet (shown by him fixing your title), be sure to get into the secret forums, they rock!

I became Supermus a while ago and I've been wondering if there is anything beyond it. I have a nasty feeling that I may have shot myself in the foot once again with my mention for the alternative to Headphoneus Supremus, but welcome to the club of ultra-phone-geekery.

Okay. Now you've intrigued me. Are there truly secret forums or are you being nasty and teasing us little people???

Thanks for the replies fellas. Much appreciated. I guess I should do a special review on something to celebrate the new title, but I can't think of anything so I wont

Hehehe.... So Duncan, what got you so excited that you felt the need to part with £2000?

Seriously though, keep up the good work.

So you noticed eh? Well, they still count fairly and squarely.

D-EJ915... I haven't spent any money on my kit since becoming supremus either

I might have a couple of cable reviews in the pipeline. I've been busy DIY'ing some recently that you may be interested in looking at. Fiddler has also been busy with some DIYing and i'll quite likely be reviewing his work as well very shortly. I'll keep you posted.

Congratulations, Mick! It's nice to see a useful poster get his rewards.

And, speaking of useful posts, I'll be anxiously looking forward to reading your cable reviews.
