    The discovery thread!

    I've got about six hours on the H60 now. One of the things that is most striking to me is how well it normalizes all my music. What I mean by that is music from 80's and 90's CDs have the same fullness and thump as newer releases. It isn't uncommon for Iron Maiden to be followed by Freddy King...

    Sitting here trying to catch up on 20 pages and AE's trusted partner Uni Uni delivered my ISN H60. 9 days from order to receive. (East coast USA) My OCC849 cable looks to be a day behind. Listening to it right now. Aerosmith Walk This Way. Right out of the box, with stock cable and stock...

    Just pulled the trigger. I looked and I did have both stores.

    Thanks. You are really poking me towards the edge. I need another iem like I need another hole in my head. :) The Andro is just so sensitive and low impedance. I love it, but it's really sensitive. And maybe hoping for a bit more cymbal shine from it. This AE sale would get me in the H60...

    I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on the H60 and OCC849 in this sale. I recently picked up a CA Andromeda white used. I really love this balanced sound. Using it with Ray Samuels Audio Predator amp, everything just sounds balanced and full. Especially at lower volumes. Around 75-78-80...

    As a guitar player and a fan of Widespread Panic and Tedeschi Trucks, etc.. I would suggest the Simgot EA500LM. I would burn it in for him and put on the middle nozzle. I think it is Silver and Red. That combo gave me the right amount of brightness and air to the guitar strings while still...

    I pulled the trigger this morning on the Libra, two sets of the Divinus Wide Bore (M), and one of the severely discounted Xinhs cables. I so DO NOT NEED the Libra, but... Meh.... 12 bucks. Why not. @Rambone, thanks for the heads up.

    Very enjoyable read. Morning tunes and coffee went perfectly with your review. Well written, enjoyable flow, hit all the capabilities and made me add the TSMR X to my investigate list. I feel the same way about switches that you did. I'll try them out eventually. Thanks.

    @majo123 for your cinch, you can use O-rings. I picked up some from the hardware store for my KZ ZS5 cables. Amazon sells different colors and sizes of O rings in kits. I think I saw white and green, and maybe red. Let me think about the Y split. What size cables are you making? IEMs? Or full...

    I feel like a rainbow unicorn. I received a pair of heat treated Hunters, AND I received the upgraded silver cable and upgraded balanced Kobicon connector cable(my choice for balanced). And I don't use them. I like the KZ ZS5 iem. I wish everyone would have been as lucky as I was. I feel bad...

    I know what you mean. I get quite disappointed when I don't get Amazon gift cards for Christmas. It's like people want to give me a variety. I don't want a variety I want more CDs Ha ha.

    I have always been interested in Queen 1, Queen 2, and night at the opera. All the stuff, basically. I have the 3CD greatest hits, and A kind of Magic. But the greatest hits is woefully light in all the good stuff. I haven't done a deep dive into Tidal. I was just looking at their...

    Follow up to my Tidal investigation. I have Tidal Premium subscription. Looking at the website, Premium equals AAC 320 streaming. HiFi level utilizes FLAC and ALAC 1141kBps. I listened to some Steely Dan, but get no appreciable difference from my ipod mp3 320 with RSA Predator (as mentioned...

    I did find the quality settings. I had to change it to high-quality. But I was not familiar with the David Bowie album, so I will need to find something I know and listen to it again.

    So I am a technical project manager for wireless carrier Sprint in the states. Sprint launched a new wireless plan on Friday called Sprint Unlimited plus. It comes with Hulu and Tidal. I downloaded Tidal today. First album: David Bowie Live Soundtrack from Spiders from Mars. Here is what I've...

    Try one of these out. I got one years and years ago. I would use it with a shuffle. There is a 3.5mm male inside the bag Then the 3.5mm female outside to plug your headphones into. The bag itself has a double, heavy duty zip lock plus fold over to make it waterproof. I have used it many...

    Yes. They have a ton of roller coasters now. Even the newest one they opened is wood. It is called Twisted Timbers. They have all makes and models of coasters. My favorite is the Volcano. You shoot straight up as soon as it starts, like lava. But my absolute favorite thing to do is sit down...

    Wife and son went to King's Dominion (Theme park) yesterday morning. Spent yesterday labeling cases and storage containers for iem and tips. Then a Walking Dead season 5 marathon. I put the medium KZ Starline tips back on The KZ ZS10. My seal is good and not slipping like my spiral dots...

    This very song is coming from what is considered as their best album: From Mars To Sirius, but if it is the prog metal vibe you are looking for, their latest album, Magma, is absolutely brilliant. Here is another one from the From Mars To Sirius album, guaranteed to move a crowd every time they...

    Norah Jones is definitely different. I checked out the video. Like the music. The vocals are not my preference. I really liked the Gojira. I'm going to have to check out more and see if they are a new band for me to pursue.
