CanJam London 2016 Impressions Thread (August 13-14, 2016)
This was my first CanJam, and I was pleased that the promised friendly atmosphere lived up to expectations and beyond. I didn't make detailed notes, but did make a brief jot down of some of the things that either particularly impressed me, and/or I decided to buy as a result of the listen. I...- stewtheking

Audioquest Dragonfly Black, Fiio K1 and Cozoy Astrapi: A rambling comparison.
Compared the red to the black at CanJam. Red seemed more detailed, but brighter than the black, and as my current IEM's are already a little bright, the red is not for me...- stewtheking

Audioquest Dragonfly Black, Fiio K1 and Cozoy Astrapi: A rambling comparison.
...seem to do justice to. Were it not for the annoyance of the apple CCK on the end, it would comfortably be the prettiest of the three. It's also *heavy*, in a way that just delicately whispers 'classy'. Conclusion: I've got to give it to the Dragonfly. It's just a really polished...- stewtheking

Anyone watching the Mahut / Isner match at Wimbledon? Longest match in history!

Do the World Cup horns (vuvuzelas) irritate you or not?
For various reasons, I think it would be foolish to ban them from the games (mainly the 'cultural heritage' aspect), but they do sound bloody awful. There have been various conversations about using filters to block the noise, and various prattling morons saying 'it'd be totally impossible, it...- stewtheking

Shipping up to London
The science museum is fantastic, well worth a visit. Plus it's free, so you can dip in and out without feeling like you're wasting the entrance fee if you aren't feeling it. If you are in early September, I would HIGHLY recommend taking in a Prom at the Royal Albert Hall...- stewtheking

Interesting graphic on BBC news about supercomputers today, using treemaps. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/10187248.stm Not the most relevant to the thread, interesting none the less.- stewtheking

pencil fi?
I picked up a nice new toy today. Happened to be passing a stationary-stand, and saw a Kuru Toga. In a fit of whimsy, I decided that I had to have one. The self-rotating barrel thing is really cool, and despite the thing being made from 10 different flavours of plastic, it doesn't feel too...- stewtheking

Head-fi featured reviews??
It's also slightly confusing what happened to the 'featured full reviews' section. My LONG K1000 review (to which my sig-link used to point) seems to be missing. I imagined it would end up in there.- stewtheking
