    Avantone : Pro Planar

    Ayy finally I find another music producer on head-fi. Welcome to the select club of music makers who also enjoy good audio gear lol. As far as better gear I can confirm, I noticed a significant jump in quality when I moved from my FiiO e09k/e07k combo to what I use now, a Zen Can and Topping...

    Avantone : Pro Planar

    @mobbaddict and @Heldaeus I'm glad you two managed to confirm my experience. It feels nice to have the issue resolved. Thankfully this should indicate the unit variation is lower than I initially had presumed it to be. One thing to note is that now the cable has gotten easier to plug in after...

    Avantone : Pro Planar

    Ok so I ordered these headphones based on both what I read in this thread and what I saw on YouTube from NoThemeReviews. Interestingly, before I bought them I also saw the Max Settings review, and I almost immediately figured out the reasoning for it being so negative (if anyone cares still...

    Avantone : Pro Planar

    I think a great song for testing both high and low end is Savant by Solar Fields. Really the first ~4 minutes will do just fine.

    Atlanta Audio Club Annual Meet - May 5, 2019

    Dang that's quite the collection! I'm looking forward to it I gotta say. You were at the last Atlanta meet as well right? I think I remember some of this stuff from 2018.

    Atlanta Audio Club Annual Meet - May 5, 2019

    Count me in as well! Like last year, I hope no one minds if I bring my keyboard along again. As I am in university, I don't have much in the way of high end stuff. Although if anyone wants to try some ie 60's lemme know lol (they really aren't that bad). I'll try to be a bit quieter this year, I...

    Atlanta - AAC (old A-VCOA) Meet on Sunday, May 6th 2018

    By the way, I just wanted to make sure of this. I like to make music as a hobby, and obviously good headphones go well with a synthesizer. I currently have two that I use and would be interested in listening to them through different headphones and potentially different amplifiers. They aren't...

    Atlanta - AAC (old A-VCOA) Meet on Sunday, May 6th 2018

    Count me in, bringing the same old gear I've had since the beginning. hd598s and a FiiO e07k/e09k combo. Maybe next year I'll have some Stax to show for myself lol. Looking forward to meeting everybody because I missed the last meeting unfortunately.

    Stax Lambdas for electronic music

    How come? Has he proven to be disingenuous in the past? I only ask out of sheer curiosity.

    Stax Lambdas for electronic music

         As one can probably tell from the title, I listen to mostly electronic music. Of varying sorts, but usually with a lot of analogue synths and wide soundscapes. Because of this, and their recent price drop, I was looking at the Sennheiser HD700's for a while, as I thought they'd suit my...

    Canlanta 2016 Impressions

    I am so angry, I was so preoccupied with school ending that I completely forgot about this (I am fuming with anger). Next year it is then.

    1/9/16 Atlanta meet impressions

    Damn it! I cannot believe I wasn't aware of this! I heard talk of an Atlanta meet last year, but nothing ended up coming of it. If only I had known, looks like it was a blast. Oh well, there is always a next year, isn't there.

    Sennheiser HD 598: Ugly or Sexy

    Man, I didn't know everyone thought these things were ugly. I've owned mine for over 2 years now and every time I look at them I think, "Yes, I am very happy I bought that". Not just for the looks (which I think are amazing). But the sound as well.
