do we ever get production/manufacturing updates or am i just kinda sitting on my hands until september

how likely do you guys think it is that thins thing goes "in stock ready to ship in about 2-3 days" during the last day of the wait period?

i own an e10k currently - came bundled when i broke my m50s regular and got the Xs a couple years ago. you think that'd be a passable dac if i used the out on the back in to a magni or something?

i don't have 6XX's yet, i just joined the drop last week. i was just saying, i hope i get ones that darken a little more like some have reported

it's great to hear about the relaxedness in that context - i hope my 6XXs settle down when i get them. i'm probably one of the youngest members on the boards - i got M50s when i was twelve, and used them all day every day for about three years. i'm sixteen now and it's really worn on me - i've...

august is an estimate, obviously. we'd probably get them a bit earlier if, say, someone really rich wanted 400 pairs of 6XXs and bought out the remaining allowance. solid state amps are probably a bit more of a safer bet if you don't own good amps already.... as in, you don't really have to...

The Shins - So Says I

this thread went places

does it bother anyone else when IEMs have a bass emphasis to them? bass is already really strong with a headphone inside of your ear and sometimes it gets to be a bit much, at least on my SE215s

it seems like it's selling pretty slowly - unless that's not how it works? i was under the impression that they had to sell 45050 or no one who chips in gets theirs - since it seems like you only get charged when the orders ship?

christ, i remember getting these for a couple of days for my birthday one year... i spent it at my grandmother's house, picking up the package the evening before we left. i remember wanting to burst in to tears at how expensive they were only to be cloaked in bass. lily allen - smile sounded on...

ashamed to have bumped the other thread because i didn't notice this one... do you guys think the current drop for 6XX is going to actually go through? i'm kind of nervous that it won't - the stars finally aligned for me to get in on something like this; praying i can get out of the ath-m50 ghetto

you guys think it's likely that the current drop will actually go through? the stars aligned for me to get in on it; hoping to make my way out of the ath-m50 ghetto.

xtc - skylarking. great album - ath-m50s make all of the questionable aspects of it's production even worse.

I'm a 16 year old dork that still listens to Ben Folds Five.

Podcasting.

Thinking about amping up my audio setup with an amp, dac, and XLR microphone. Is there a decent thing out there that does all three of these things that I can USB to my PC?

PC works best for me. I do online school and my hobbies are after effects, graphic design, and digital art so I can really just have a massively powerful PC and build my life around that. Games are distractions, so whenever I'm stressed out and I can start search a game and take a break with...

If you're on a budget, and have to get things piece by piece while looking to rise through the ranks an amp/dac might give it a little more sparkle and also when you upgrade cans you'll already have one to use instead of, say, dropping 300 on a pair of HD 650s and then another one or two on a...

I'm not married. Probably cause I play PSP in my bed.

MD is one of the most charming old formats to me, hahaha. I still play a PSP pretty often in bed.

In addition I'd prefer something closed back with a more neutral sound signature than the M50s. I'm listening to all kinds of music and a lot of podcasts 16 hours a day so versatility is the most important for me. I also do a decent amount of audio editing and I'd prefer more neutral output for...

Hey guys. I've been lurking for quite a while, I just didn't ever post because I'm pretty young and don't really have the capital to finance a hobby like this, as much as I'd love to. Recently, after two years, my M50s bit the dust. It's fine, cause I was looking for an upgrade anyway. I'd...
