| About Me: |
On the move. Isolation, durability & comfort are more important for me than SQ. |
| Headphone Inventory |
Current EDC headsets: Samsung HS3000 - main set, 'coz it's wireless. Terrible SQ. Logitech Ultimate Ears 350vm - on airplane flights and as a backup when HS3000 runs out of juice. Sometimes: Denon AHD2000 – pros: design, SQ. Cons: too warm. Audio-Technica ATH-A700 – light, comfy, good SQ. Not using: Audio-Technica ATH-AD700 - open design lets in too much of outside noise Brainwavz beta – well built, bad fit, poor SQ, no isolation. Sleek Audio SA6 – good SQ, crappy cable – fails too often. Etymotics HF2 - durable, OK SQ, filters fail (clog) too often, unreliable. A few Sansa Clip+ earphones. |
| Source Inventory |
Mobile phone (audiobooks) Ultrabook computer Sansa Clip+, Sansa Clip Zip – overhyped crap. Don't last long; either headphone socket fails, either screen. |
| Music Preferences |
Acid Jazz, Ambient, BreakBeat, BreakCore, ChillOut, Contemporary Classical, Digital Hardcore, DownBeat, DownTempo, Drone, Dub, Easy Listening, Electronic, Experimental, Glitch, House, IDM, Indie, Industrial, Instrumental, Lounge, Minimalistic, Noise, Nu Jazz, Post-Rock, Trip-Hop and more. Depends on the mood. |
