    Hi, I am moving and sadly have to part with my Focal Radiance. I am the second owner but have taken good care of them, and they are in good condition. Comes with original box and Dekoni pads ($50.00 value) that I prefer over the standard pads (also included). I took some quick pictures, but let...

    CanJam Chicago 2023 (June 24-25, 2023)

    Hi everybody, I'd like to come on Sunday but I don't have a car. Is there a chance anybody is driving from the North Side or Evanston? I'd be happy to chip in for gas/parking. Alternatively, is there a better place to list this? Thanks, B

    Hi all, I have a MEST MKII for sale that I recently bought (second-hand). I like the sound signature, but decided IEMs are just not for me. Comes with original accessories but missing one set of Spinfit-style earbuds from previous owner. I have included a couple extra pairs of Xelastecs to...

    How many people here get irritated by 'normals'?

    Those are overtly political questions so I am only going to answer the first part. I wouldn't have gone to school where I do if I didn't share those ideals in a very abstract way, but I am firm believer in engaging the system as it works and working from moderacy to those ideals through...

    How many people here get irritated by 'normals'?

    I have to say moofasa, you've been pretty harsh on people who have offered u a no opinion, and in my opinion its unwarranted... First of all these gross generalizations that evaluate education quality on the basis of state are ridiculous. The quality of schools in the US fluctuates greatly on...

    How many Head-fiers can claim Perfect Pitch?

    you might also try MacGamut, its pretty good software.

    How often do you bathe/shower?

    Only if I exercise, which usually works out to once a day. But its exams week.

    Can you do 40 push ups?

    I'm not very athletic, but I can do 40 standard push-ups with ease. Some of the other physical fitness tests listed earlier are not really indicators of physical fitness; triceps and boobs are actually pretty useless except for looking good, although I agree with pullups. How about leg pressing...

    Is the HE90 (still) the most detailed headphone?

    I agree with catscratch. Granted I have never owned an HE90, but the Qualia tries to sound detailed. Its the first thing you notice since the midrange on Qualias is deemphasized and they might possibly have more HF extension than HE90s. The HE90s are sennheissers, they don't jump out at you but...

    Opeth Through Two Paper Cups And A String (hater thread)

    I'm an ex-opeth fan too, but I really don't understand what you're saying. I kind of feel like you might share my sentiments but I dunno... Opeth started out as a death metal band with proggressive tendencies, and sometime after BWP became a prog rock band with death metal influences. The...

    Any modern metal out there with singing?

    Since post-metal is already being discussed, here's an interesting thing to think about. Most post-metal bands have two guitars, one melodic and one distorted rhythm guitar. Vocals are used rarely, mostly to emphasize heavy sections (ex. Panopticon). When I first picked up Rosetta's "The...

    Do you like any Asian rock band?

    I can really only think of Japanese bands. Envy Melt Banana and of course, BORIS

    Got any good Post/Sludge Metal?

    DA: You'll probably like: Mouth of the Architect-Quietly The Ocean-Precambrian Rosetta-Wake/Lift Personally, I think that the Galilean Sattelites is a pretty mediocre album. There are only two really good songs, Departe and Itinerant and the quadraphonic thing is kinda cool, kinda...
