Wolf Alice - Blue Weekend

I agree. No point in being constantly uncomfortable which in turn makes you not enjoy listening. Sadly, that's where I'm at currently, which is a true shame as these Sundara's DO sound really good.

Well listening to the Sundara's with the new Dekoni pads for the past few days, the new pads really haven't solved the comfort issues I'm having. I still get the same discomfort by my right ear, but just to a lesser degree. That and I just can't seem to get these cans to sit on my head...

My Dekoni Elite Hybrid ear pads arrived a few days early, and I just popped them on my Sundara's. No pics were taken because they look almost the same as the stock pads except they are just a tad thicker on the thick end of the pad, maybe a 0.25" thicker at most. The Dekoni pads also don't...

Replaced the cheap USB cable with a short 1' Pangea cable. Also purchased a cheap red power cable to go along with the blue one I've had laying around for a few years. The USB cable is meant as an upgrade obviously, but the power cables are just for looks and better cable management since the...

Never heard of this band before, but pretty darn good music. Good quality recordings as well! Roon > Qobuz > 44.1kHz > Upsampled - DSD128 > SMSL M400 > Topping A90 > Hifiman Sundara Balanced

And now with a pair of proper XLR interconnects... 1 foot pair of Worlds Best Cables "Amphenol" Canare cables.

Love this album! I can say that 2500 watts, two 15" subwoofers in a very large ported enclosure and an Audio Control Epicenter in a car gets this album REALLY cranking! Ask me how I know... :beerchug:
