The Continuation Of The Sony Walkman 1Z/1A Thread!
Thanks and sorry 'bout that man 😅 Although I was afraid beforehand that it might weight too much for practical use beforehand, in reality it doesn't bother me at all, now I have it here. Yes, it does weight almost double compared to the 1A. But it also has exactly the same size and footprint as...- Kerouac

The Continuation Of The Sony Walkman 1Z/1A Thread!
So, about 8 months ago I picked up (out of curiosity) a WM1A from the classifieds. I was bitten by the 'Sony housesound bug' pretty hard and soon it was followed by a ZX707 (JP) and an IER-M9, which I also both picked up on HF. Although I thought I was done 'Sony shopping' after that, recently...- Kerouac

flinkenick's 17 Flagship IEM Shootout Thread (and general high-end portable audio discussion)
And here I was, thinking that you were one of the few members that had found a way to resist that damned upgraditus madness... No need to blame the cat though :sweat_smile: Anyway, that SE6 Nebula seems like a worthy upgrade, reading your description => congrats! :)- Kerouac

Campfire Chat - Official Campfire Audio 2024 Thread!
Nope. That's an Onso 06 (copper) cable, which came with my Supermoon. I had never heard of that cable before to be honest, but it ended up (synergywise) on the Andro :)- Kerouac

Campfire Chat - Official Campfire Audio 2024 Thread!
Sure thing!!! While I also have the Supermoon and Solaris SH in my current iem collection, the Andro & Vega (2016/17) still get plenty of playtime in my listening sessions rotation. I especially like to use them (based on synergy) with my recently purchased Sony daps. Btw, most of the time...- Kerouac

flinkenick's 17 Flagship IEM Shootout Thread (and general high-end portable audio discussion)
To me it feels more like some kind of 'time machine' (trip down memory lane) thread... I even started listening to my almost 10 yrs old RSD Solars again last week... ...and was quite amazed how good they still sounded (imho) after all these years :) Oh well, I guess Napoleon Dynamite and...- Kerouac

Nice! I've read a lot of positive things about the CFA Clara so far. I'm also curious how you will like them (if you get that chance) compared to your SE Nebulas :thinking: I haven't heard them myself, so I can't recommend a source for synergy. But maybe some other member(s) can jump in who...- Kerouac

I already liked the SE5U a lot when I had it (even twice) on a loan over here for some weeks, years ago... As you can see in that pic I cut the hearts out of some silicone black tips and put them around the nozzles to get a good seal and comfortable fit. But that worked totally fine for me at...- Kerouac

Nice! And I totally believe that that iem delivers superb sound! :smile: Over the past days I've been listening a lot with this combination myself... Sony ZX707 (JP) + Rhapsodio Solar (+ EA Cadmus) I ordered these Solars during 2015 and if any of the (10BA) drivers broke down in the meantime...- Kerouac

What??? Are you saying that your ciems don't even do that for you? :joy: And even 'only' €1459 / €1794 for the universal ones Btw, I really like the design of that one compared to the grey/metallic looking other ones It has some very nice 60's design vibe to it imo... I still can't figure...- Kerouac

Haha, that endgame is mainly based on the available audio budget, which I'm afraid is pretty close to zero these days :sweat_smile: But I'm very happy with all the synergy options that I have over here right now. So many different signature 'flavors' to enjoy, all of them offering different...- Kerouac

Oh man, just when I thought I was finally done with that (need to try) itching feeling, you post this! Call me intrigued, but please stop now, so I can find my inner peace (based on the thought that I had finally reached my endgame in this hobby) again :joy: I'm also curious what you'll think...- Kerouac
