    Sunglass-Fi, The Optics Info Thread

    Are you looking specifically for sport optics? The brands that compete in the impact protection niche vs the consumer niche are often different. For good optics that are also impact resistant (similar to Oakley), I would recommend Rudy Project. Their polycarbonate lenses seem to be a little...

    Sunglass-Fi, The Optics Info Thread

    Part of it depends on preference, as different brands have different features. Maui Jim competes in the same market and also makes very good lenses that are highly respected in the industry. Personally, I'm a big fan of Salt Optics and Leisure Society (for their frames, as well). Salt has a wide...

    Sunglass-Fi, The Optics Info Thread

    No, they're associated with the Bushnell / Vista Outdoors group. I don't have a vintage Corning pair, but I did have a modern one and liked the optics and construction quite a bit. I had to get a spare part once and found their customer service to be responsive as well. Looks like you're...

    Sunglass-Fi, The Optics Info Thread

    I find Serengeti's to be well made and have competitive optics. Since they aren't owned by Luxottica, unfortunately you don't see too many stockists for them. Revo has some of the better optics in Luxottica's portfolio, but I wouldn't rate them as highly. I've only tried Smith's goggles, but I...

    Sunglass-Fi, The Optics Info Thread

    Thanks, I appreciate it a lot. Maybe someday I will branch out to Youtube videos or something. As for Lindberg, I would say that their air titanium frames are better suited for eyeglasses than sunglasses. Because the wire is thicker than sheetmetal, the lenses for sunglasses need to be custom...

    Sunglass-Fi, The Optics Info Thread

    They each have their advantages and disadvantages IMO, so I own both. The nice thing about the Mykita hinge is that you can clip the sunglasses folded on your shirt when you aren't using them, and they won't spring up and fall off. Also Mykita has softer silicon pads, better antireflective...

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    So I finally got around to getting mine a couple weeks ago. Thanks again @moedawg140 for letting me try yours last year at CanJam. These are easily the best headphones I've had yet. Tried a few others at and above the SE846's price range, but for some reason none of them jumped out at me like...

    DX90. 2X Sabre,1st page: Downloads, info&inst. . ! Lurker0 FW Mod link 1st page !!. .NEW FW! 2.3.0 . . . . .

    Just got mine. To me, it sounds bassier than neutral, and definitely bassier than the Zune HD I was using before. I'm noticing a huge difference with full-sized cans like the HD700. Apparently even with an amp the Zune was doing a pitiful job of powering these, whereas the DX90 fares much...

    CanJam SoCal 2015 Impressions Thread

    The way I understand it, you can set it up so that you'll only buy an item if enough people sign up to make the lowest price available. I've never used it, though.

    CanJam Music Appreciation Contest

    It seems like the samples available at canjam were mostly jazz, so it would be nice to have something different from that. Rather than people's favorite songs, it would be a good idea to use well-mastered tracks within a particular genre that would give fans of that genre an idea of how the...

    CanJam SoCal 2015 Impressions Thread

    Got an email this morning. It seems that they left it up to the vendors to contact the winners who weren't there, and the vendors seem to be contacting people at different times.   Time for me to read up on Final Audio Design. I've been out of the loop for a while and haven't heard of the brand...

    CanJam SoCal 2015 Impressions Thread

    Lol, the gf is already trying to steal it now that she knows I won something. Funny thing is, I brought her and another one of my non-audiophile friends to the event. I wasn't planning on doing the scavenger hunt, but they decided to do it, so I played along. Then after about two signatures they...

    Just got an email that I won something! Or maybe it's a highly convincing April Fool's day joke...
