Brooklyn Meet Impressions (July 30th)
Figured I'd get this rolling for pics and what have you. I'm exhausted, so I'll be posting more tomorrow, but I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out and making this such an awesome meet. Great gear and great company (and great food, if I do say so on behalf of my phenomenal wife). ...- Dev Avidon

Brooklyn Meet
I had so much fun at the Detroit meet that I figured it would be cool to host one in my own backyard. My apartment is not super big, so it'd probably be about 20 people max, but it's a nice wide open loft, and I should be able to set up enough space for everyone to set up their rigs. Just want...- Dev Avidon

Ultra-high isolation customs
I own a set of TRIPS, and very much enjoy them, but I'm finding that they pop in and out of my ear canal when I sing at gigs, and so I'm looking to upgrade to some silicon based customs, both for work and to brave the L train at rush hour. Anyone have any experience/opinions/alternatives to the...- Dev Avidon

Review: RME Babyface
I've started doing a review series for a local Pro Audio shop called Pro Audio Star, and while, understandably, much of the gear I touch on may not be of interest to the average head-fier, I thought the Babyface might. Simply put, this is some of the best conversion you can find on a...- Dev Avidon

Pro Audio Hi-Fi
I've started doing a bi-monthly review series for Pro Audio Star, a pro audio shop literally around the corner from my place in Brooklyn, and realized that some of the pieces I'm working with might actually be of interest to the Head-Fi community. For example, I recently did a review of the...- Dev Avidon

The Smiths
Per Uncle Erik's request, here's a relatively brief chronological lowdown on the Smiths, and the relative nature of their studio recordings (I don't touch on the live album because I still can't find my copy...). Their first two singles in 1983 were "Hand in Glove" and "This Charming...- Dev Avidon

The Audiophile's Dilemma
Going through my collection of The Smiths today, I found that I had a huge number of duplicates as a result of the fact that I obsessively bought all the original albums when they came out when I was growing up, and didn't have the heart to throw out or give away the "best of" type albums that...- Dev Avidon

Rack Mountable Multi-Channel Headphone Amps
So, I have bounced around a bunch of my pro-audio buddies on this one, and checked out the usually gearslutz, etc type forums, but I am of a different breed than most professional musicians (for whom DB level is usually the beginning and end when they're talking about cue mixes), so I figured I...- Dev Avidon

New Matrix M-Stage?
After reading all the high praise I ordered a Matrix M-Stage from David Gao at Hllyaudio and got this reply: "Can you wait for two weeks, the new version will be available soon. The sound will be better." Needless to say this was the first I had heard of a new version, seeing as this...- Dev Avidon
