Music for a Large Ensemble - Steve Reich Lots of color in this work. Urgent, perhaps bordering on anxious. If you liked Variations, you'll like this.

Actually I haven't listened to her music in a while before Trigger Bang. I like that it's a bit eclectic. The only other ones I know are Smile, Chinese, and *** You. I totally get what you mean about lyrics and music. At times I find lyrics too distracting or just find myself listening to the...

Lily Allen - Trigger Bang (feat. Giggs) A chill banger. A bit of hip hop, a bit of pop. There's a lot going on but it works.

Steve Reich - Eight Lines I found this to be a bit jarring and demented at the start, but it gets better. Minimal, yet lush and kaleidoscopic. I like this recording the most, it's faster and more lively.

A little update: I got them back this week after 2 weeks. I think I ended up with an entirely new pair since the box was sealed and everything inside was untouched. I'm glad but it's a shame they couldn't just repair the original ones. Maybe the hinge parts weren't available? Anyways, I...

Great thread! Rosalia - Malamente The music video is wonderfully strange.

Steve Reich - Variations for Winds, Strings, and Keyboards While it's definitely minimal, there's an ornate richness to this piece. Lots for your ears to chew on. I don't like to listen to this too often as its meditative quality can be exhausting. You may go crazy, but it's worth it!

Thanks. That's a great idea. There was a used A5 on sale last week that would have fit the bill. I'll keep a look out for some deals, but for now I think I'll stick with the A3 for now.

Thanks for the links. You're right, this seems to be quite simple and doable. I noticed this mod uses a lot more plasticine/clay though. Hopefully the permanent sealing and cementing is optional. In comparison to stock Mk3s this seems to require less power to drive, which is good (?), and even...

Thanks, I'll check it out. Ya, I agree with you on that. I imagine more dampening means more power needed. But I also feel some of it has to deal with ear sensitivity too. It's gonna take all of my willpower not to buy anything else while I wait. :sweat_smile:

Hey all, I ordered the Mk3s on boxing day for about $150 CDN. Unfortunately, they arrived with the left hinge broken off so I had to send them back for repairs (retailer sold out). :( I'm gonna have to wait 3-4 weeks for them, but I hope the wait will be worth it. When I get them back I'm...
