Can you fit it in a large travel trunk? And if so, can the trunk still be moved without needing a draft horse? If yes, it's portable.

Still waiting for Lokius to become available at the EU distributor 😥

I have this cover scanned and enlarged into a poster above my desk and sometimes I wonder how the hell you'd turn it into a movie. Let's not talk about what happened to "We can remember it for you wholesale".

I never order USPS unless it's something really cheap or I have no choice. Fedex/DHL will reliably spend 2 days at customs, USPS will go through the Italian postal service (cue wilhelm scream) and can and has spent 2 months at customs, and some time occasionally vanish.

I can't speak for the rest of Europe but Italy is, essentially, a cash economy, and people will for the most part preferentially pay cash for all things up to the legally allowed limit - yes we have that because Italy therefore insanity - and also many that are well past that if they can...

Still loving these things. Wasn't sure the ECP T4 would do well with them, as its not really designed for cans with impendance this low, but they're sensitive enough it does just fine. Still wishing the cups were bigger though.

They're my choice for the Veritè. I like the stage and chill of universe lamb on v but the dips in the FR were so pronounced it made some of my favourite stuff sound a bit hollow/cold/distant. Haven't tried them on Aeolus though, because what I'd want over Aeolus pads is more Atticus-osity* and...

I'm glad I got Mg on Veritè and Aeolus but not enough to ship Atticus and Auteur back across the pond for conversion ... Is that weird? Blackwood Auteur is heavy af, when I pick it up I wish it were lighter but once its on my head it never really bothers me.

Continuum™ filter. Yes, I am a huge space nerd. I've got nothing on the multibit, so please stare at these vaguely relevant dilbert cartoons as a distraction while I escape:

Ya tell me about it. Between Yggdrasil, 2 tube amps, a very large and heavy pc, and bookshelf speakers I had to get laminated wood workbenches made to desk height, no existing desk could take it.

I'm not gonna mind if you start making mine, you know?

Finally time for the money shot :p

Okay, quick non-Aegir-related question, @Jason Stoddard How much does Yaggy care/rely upon heat dissipation via the top of the chassis? Due to space constraints one of my SET amps has to sit on top of it and it picks up a slight hum from Yaggy's power section. I'm going to have a brass plate...

THR009 off to @Sorrodje to get measured as soon as I can find a free minute here. I won't comment on sound, but I will stretch how important it is to get them setup just right. The headband is stiff as anything, and much more than my Vali there's a very fine line between "something is annoying...

T'aint wrong though, and I say this as THR009 owner. These are ****-you prices, and the thror is barely acceptable and I'm saying this as an enormous wood person. It doesn't give 1800€ more pleasure than my Auteur gives me, it's basically an equivalent, but at twice the price. And the Thror is...

The K1000 ofc! Why do you even need to ask?

Clamp is still super strong yo, had to manhandle them vs wooden floor quite a bit before they were comfortable.

THR009 just landed.

Also the headband on the Vali and Odin mk0/1/2 clamps *really* hard. Takes that baby apart and open it up.

Could be. I know they've also been working on new pads for the Vali to tame that small bump in the kids that makes them a bit nasally, makes sense that Thror has it's own pads.

Wolf Ear Audio makes an OTL "Natayo" with sticker proudly proclaiming "Made in Canada, eh". Its also cheap* enough that the ever present spectre of "Why didn't you just get a ZDS" is in another price bracket, and thus avoided. Haven't heard it myself mind, I have his SET on order though. You...

His'n'hers? :beyersmile:

Eh. I appreciate the work he does running this site, but his reviews often disagree with my opinions, and he seems to silently change his measurement settings every other day making them impossible to compare to one another. Better than Steve "everything is awesome" Guttenberg, but that's...

I didn't like the magister either, so ... good? The only problem I see here is Kennerton being put off by a reviewer not liking a piece of gear so much to never send him gear again.

What does Tyll have to do with that? If anything be worried, if the recent trends of measurements by shills being discussed by people who don't understand measurements is anything to go by. There's people seriously suggesting Topping DACs for Pete's sake, this hobby's going to the dumps.
