Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
I always have a pocket square. I do have a few self-tie bow ties but haven't rocked them at work yet. For footwear in the office I'm usually wearing balmoral brogue cap toe boots. Not quite Beatle boots, but boots nonetheless.- singlestack

Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
I'm trying to single-handedly bring back 3 piece suits in the office. I also love pocket watches but don't wear them on a regular basis. Also dabbling in detachable stiff collar shirts. Requires subtlety to incorporate these elements into daily wear without looking too costume-y.- singlestack

Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
I still have my Mjolnir 2 with Gold Lion tubes paired with Gumby A1 (upgraded to Unison). It's hard for me to move on and try something better since this is already so good. With the 8 watts at 32 ohms when balanced, I can't imagine needing anything more powerful unless I one day get my hands...- singlestack

Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
I'm one of those weirdos who loves anachronisms. I was probably born in the wrong time period. Love straight and safety razors, fountain pens, mechanical watches, vintage fashion. If it's old and requires more effort, you can bet I'm probably drawn to it.- singlestack

Exceptional in Every Detail: Say Hello to the IE 600
Seems like it would be a little clunky to have an adapter sticking out that far. For the price of that adapter I ended up buying a braided cable also on Ali that was meant for the IE300/600/900 series for about the same amount. Just waiting for it to arrive. I guess if you already have nice...- singlestack

Exceptional in Every Detail: Say Hello to the IE 600
I found some braided cables for IE300/IE900 on Aliexpress. Ordered one in 3.5 and one in 4.4. Going to give them a try. The stock cable is kind of annoying and keeps wanting to coil back up from how I'm storing them.- singlestack

xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend
Just revisiting my 990kbps LDAC experience. I was playing with the Bluetooth tonight again and I can get a stable connection without any stuttering as long as I stay within maybe 10 feet of my phone and I keep the phone screen off.- singlestack

I guess it's kind of random. My box was labeled Made in Germany.- singlestack

This may be another dumb question, but isn't the dB figure arbitrary as well since the actual volume you get in your ear would be dependent on how sensitive your earphones/headphones are?- singlestack

That's great news. I just updated my firmware last night. I'll have to test that out today when I get a moment.- singlestack

xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend
This may be a stupid question, but do I need to download all the firmware updates on the iFi Hub, or just the most recent v1.45? I downloaded the Bluetooth update, but none of the 3 XMOS ones on the site.- singlestack

Oh? 2.4 signals impact the connection? I wasn't using it them at the time but all my wireless computer peripherals are 2.4.- singlestack
