Some men buy Ferraris to compensate...but real men buy the Thick Rod™ from ThickGlasses®! XD
 
Even more disturbingly...from a distance, your avatar sorta looks like me!

You know it!

Just to be thorough, here's a little overview of the three Final Audio Design headphones I mentioned recently.

The MURAMASA VIII was an $8,000 prototype that was produced in limited quantities and ultimately discontinued.
 


The next two are yet to be released.

I heard the Pandora Hope X will be less than $1,200.
 


The limited edition of this model is the Pandora SE, which will apparently cost between $10,000 and $14,000! (No idea why.)

Hey now, I don't have the job yet. I still have one more interview to clear.

Jump over the interview. 
 

I know, but I backed it for the form-factor and battery. Won't be using it for DSD playback(much)

Lucky devil. Wish I had a small taste of what it's capable of, since we'd probably wait another 6 months for them to get into production.
I know ClieOS is getting one. Not gonna bother with the review promo since I'm buying one anyways. Do link me or PM me you opinion on the thing once you get a good feel of it.
Then you'd be happy to know it comes with an armband for workout use.

 
It's been sitting on my desk for the last few weeks. Haven't had time to use it really.

This is eerily similar to an image from Rosario + Vampire that I could never post or even describe here. XD

I remember this conversation. I hope you saw the funny praying mantis clip I shared then!

The prototype Muramasa I can understand due to it being very limited and discontinued. But both the X and SE looks like glorified Pandora Hope VIs to me. Unless they are significantly better than the VI, I really don't see the point except for collectors or hardcore FAD fans.


HybridCore It's like those armpit pics circulating around China these days. Seriously, What were they thinking?

The only reason I would ever spend that much on a headphone is if it offered a superior (or at least very unique) sound. Aesthetics are secondary, and that's covered here anyway.
 
Also, it was $8,000 before it was discontinued, and the Pandora SE will probably be even more limited.
