VSONIC GR07 Impressions Thread
Quote: I have not received a response from VSONIC yet. I don't want to use my headphones without the mesh on there. Ear wax in the driver doesn't sound like a great idea.- BlueAlien

VSONIC GR07 Impressions Thread
Quote: I lost the retaining clip. It shot out of my tweezers, hit my forehead and disappeared. I emailed Vsonic and asked for a replacement. Hopefully they will come though. If not, I will have to try and make one.- BlueAlien

VSONIC GR07 Impressions Thread
I was listening to mine today and the left side was barely audible. I changed the balance on my ipod to correct it but I think the left side is clogged with wax. How can I clean them out? EDIT: Well, I figured out how to remove the mesh and clean it. Everything went well with the left but...- BlueAlien

I just received my Bifrost and Lyr this week for my AKG k702's. Being both my first dedicated Dac and headphone amp, I am blown away by the sound. I'll have to start tube rolling soon too!- BlueAlien

Just purchased Schiit Lyr and Bifrost!
I received the Bifrost and the Lyr today! They sound amazing compared to my computer's audio out and the Marantz. Even using the Lyr as a preamp for my speakers sound great. I do have a question about the Bifrost. I am using USB to connect it. In my playback devices, I have a digital option...- BlueAlien

Just purchased Schiit Lyr and Bifrost!
I finally caved and purchased the Schiit Lyr and Bifrost. I currently have AKG k702's which run off of a Marantz 2252. I notice a drastic sound quality improvement as the volume increases to detrimental levels. I will be doing a co-op at Cisco for the next 6 months and figured I can now...- BlueAlien

K701 thread
Just received a used par from ebay. I'm running them off my Marantz 2252 and they sound amazing compared to the 240mkii's. Much more comfortable too. I'll have to try out some vinyl with these.- BlueAlien

Quote: A similar thing happened to me when I started running in vibrams. I went on easy runs for a while, but as soon as I up'ed my distance, the top of my foot started getting bad pains. I took it easy for a while and now I can run my normal distances just fine in them. Best of...- BlueAlien

Bicycle-Fi!
I ended up purchasing a 2012 Trek Fuel EX 8 for $1700 after taxes and shipping. I went with the Matt Ti color. I should get the bike in about 2 weeks! I can't wait to hit the trails around San Luis Obispo! In the meantime, I'll just have to continue road biking to curb my impatience.- BlueAlien

Quote: Thanks, I think someone else also recommended the superfly 100. I am probably going to end up spending around $1750 after the discount. And it seems like the discount prices were about 40% lower than msrp.- BlueAlien
