Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A
I have been waiting for this for a long time... I think I got the phones early, but no manual, no nothing. And positioning is so important. Thanks for posting!- jvcinsc

iPhone DAC
That last part times 100. The number of parts I have to carry to power/charge everything else is crazy. Waiting for everything to go...wireless charge? Something? But I know it will never happen.- jvcinsc

Apple AirPods Pro And NEW AirPods Pro 2nd Gen (from 23 Sep 2022) - Impressions
I saw your thoughts on these in the other post, thanks for chiming in here. The APP are my go to "on the move" in ear, but I think the Bose will work well for travel, but the fit and the NC work for me. If you forced me to buy only one, it would probably be the APP, but part of that is I'm...- jvcinsc

Bose QuietComfort® Earbuds
Another old ears here. I have a ear shape that doesn't lend itself to many in ears, and the Bose system just worked for me, so that's a deal maker. I find their NC a good as it gets for me as well, although that's a combination of factors to all add up. If I ever fly again, it will be nice not...- jvcinsc

Any thoughts/info on the newly announced Grado GT220 true wireless in-ears?
Very interesting = I wonder what they can offer vs. the other myriad of solutions out there. "Signature Grado Sound" is going to be hard in that form factor.- jvcinsc

Shure SE846 Impressions Thread
Sorry for the late reply on this, but the search pulled this up and was exactly what I'm looking for - under a helmet! Other than the durability, is the profile ok? You don't have issues with them touching parts of the helmet?- jvcinsc

New IEMs from Monoprice - Hi-Fi Reflective Sound Technology Earphones
+1 I would love something super low priced that sounds reasonable. The motorcycle helmet going on a off wreck these, and it would be great to have a bin ready to go.- jvcinsc

Apple AirPods Pro And NEW AirPods Pro 2nd Gen (from 23 Sep 2022) - Impressions
The Apple Watch and the APP are a great go to for a low impact audio solution when walking - I love not having to carry anything at all, and if you set the noise cancellation to "transparency" you can keep safety in mind as well. There are some good "Prime Day Deals" on the APP, by the way.- jvcinsc

Those look like a super-clean solution, I assume the specs don't measure up for your use?- jvcinsc

WORST headphone you ever heard?
I forgot about this. I think this has to be a winner. I know they are "free", but it's almost like punishment for forgetting yours.- jvcinsc

whats the absolute best open-back COMFORTABLE headphones?
Agree on HD6xx. Light and easy. Some people find the SR1a the bomb for comfort, if that's your thing. Very open for sure.- jvcinsc

WORST headphone you ever heard?
Although beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I'm surprised that like motorcycles and cars, there are so many fewer truly bad options out there now. I think of the classic Tyll Ultrasone review and can't think of a headphone that "interesting". That being said, there are many gaming headsets...- jvcinsc
