You ever start and think that a lot of the music you enjoy just isn’t produced well enough for hifi gear?
Without question, especially since the "loudness wars" engulfed studios in the early 90s. Sadly, that trend still exists today.

Take Oasis, for example. One of my Mount Rushmore bands. And every one of their studio albums sounds like rubbish. Terrible mixing and mastering.

That kilobuck pricing really surprised me until I scrolled down to see it's just a placeholder. What do you think the actual price will be? I'm thinking $179 USD.


Detailed etching on the faceplates and the shell facing your ears. That's going above and beyond. So... is there any ear irritation since it isn't smooth?
not at all. it's quite comfortable and there's no sharp edge that will hurt my ears. and yes, it's so beautifully crafted that i don't know why it could be priced so reasonably.

What strain of weed are they smoking? I'd like to try. :)
Right? Here's an example. There was also a recent episode of the Darko Podcast where Srajan was talking about a former customer of his in California who swore he could do the same (and apparently never actually played his records).

most Prince albums belong in this category too imo, genius musician... awful at the actual mixes of the tracks.
