The aesthetic is mhmmmmm. If they advertised it as a sculpture I'd buy at that price. As LE Emperor? I haven't even heard it yet, hard pass.

TIL what I lose in taxes every month is budget fi

. My wife: but didn't you Damz Hurst it twice already? Also I'm not getting you a custom Viento

Not even a knock on the sound. I love to own a VC/VO at one point and I almost pulled the trigger on a Camphor Burl one last year. But I'm not ready to commit what I'd need for a setup like this given ny sunk cost fallacy for porta-fi. Rn6 it is

I needed that validation for passing on every VC I see🤭

See:Delusional, Misled, Rejecting reality. They'll be back in 2 months with a Mattw (Collection of iems), pulling multiple Damz Hurst and Scubis along the way. You can check out of this hobby but you can never leave.

You called? It's a bit more nuanced than that though. Otherwise I would have liked the Ragnar At a roughly 30% of an iem's value (My own limit). 6-7k cables would be roughly accepted when flagships are in the 20k range. Pssst, I claim royalties on that idea UM. Send cheques to my Paypal...

Blessed are those who can't treble. Meanwhile me: Where is the treble on this? HISSSSSSS They got the naming and aesthetic down pat. If only they had decided to go with something other than PVC insulation it might have convince me to break my self imposed limit on cables this once. That being...

Another smooth transaction with Brad! Sell to without worry!

Now do Iron Man, Mr Fantastic, Winter Soldier etc. 🤣🤣🤣

Oh I agree 100% I do appreciate that, more of a personal thing where my OCD bugs out before I can accumulate it to the point where it looks nice and not a blemish on a otherwise pristine item.

I guess its a matter of perspective. Great way of looking at oxidiation and wear as character and all that. Personally, I buy things because I like the look brand new and try to keep it that way. And nothing is convincing me otherwise

Posted at 12:42 AM my time. Thats a lot of math, clearly I'm the only one who has Math hours between 11:30A to 3:30P Maybe surge in visits to their sites. I don't think I could get into watches. My OCD would not let me wear them, and the moment I see any sort of patina, I'm gonna sell at a loss 😅

Great experience, was patient due to logistics issues with the delivery method. Sell to with confidence!

Curious what shipping method you used? 85 CAD seems pretty steep. I just paid for a small packet with Canada Post and sent it on the way. Took almost a month to get there 😅

Yup, those are sorted out. Turns out that Toni had tested on iems that had the old school UM/QDC 2 pins and them being extruded allowed for longer 2 pins. From communications with iem manufacturers it was also the type of 2 pin sockets as well. Some are open at the back but a lot of them are...

Clearly a sign that you need customs. I had a hard time keeping Kr5 in my ears and knew any kinetic bass models would be a custom. Thankfully the M4 showed me that FiR was going to give an identical sound going custom. That said, other things: Pull a Damz Hurst and sell my second bird I said...

IEM Neckbrace to ensure optimal listening position?

Back to basics tonight. I haven't listened to M4 much the last few months with all the TOTLs going in and out. Yes that's a 1Z and a Cardas Clear. but it's probably the cheapest (relatively) setup I have. Everytime I go back to the M4 from a long stint with the big boys, I'm little concerned...

Someone beat me to it 😅 I concur, key point is that the 1Z is just that much more resolving. And when we're in the thread of pursuing the last x%, it makes a difference. I don't see why we can't combine our most profilic buy iem for the nth time and sell them shortly there after folks into one...

Why not combine the two? Pulling a Damz Hurst 🤭

On hold till end of month for interested buyer.

I haven't gotten to it with the 1Z on my rotation yet. But I've used it primarily with the 1AM2, For me at least, I don't want to pair it with something too warm since Rn6 leans towards warm from neutral.

Welcome to the club! Did you go with the stock faceplates? @warrenpchi I humbly submit my submission for a "jwilliamhurstJR" flair in addition to "resident treble fiend" and "y'all get any more of those upper mids" I had the Feiwan off the 1AM2 for about a week before I got the 1Z. And the...

In case anyone is looking for Black/Red Trailli. I'm doing a @jwilliamhurst (Second Odin, then second Bird and selling off both after getting them) Had @harshkamboj not graced my ears with a trade for Fei Wan, Trailli might still be in the stable for me, I gave it a week but 1Z + Feiwan is just...
