I'm really interested in the Modhouse Tungsten, double sided magnet version. Though, I seem to miss every ordering window.
I was there a few minutes before the release window and had my options copied and ready to paste when the window opened. Got it done. Within a few minutes, They were sold out again.

I didnt want the bog oak color of Rognir as I had a Thridi that color and didnt like it. The Wenge looked like the same shade as bog oak from the pictures online…but since it was the only color left….I had no choice if I wanted a new one. Well to my delight the Wenge is a lighter and much better looking shade to my eye.

There's a Vali second hand on the local market for about 300$.
How is the Vali? is there any point buying it or will it be redundant in my collection?

Wow...that seems to be quite a good deal if its real.

I've tried all 3 versions n the Neoteric is the best version in terms of details while retaining great bass.
OG had a intimate bass banging presentation. Rolled off treble. Love this one too I prefer the screw headband than the self-adjustable one.
2nd version a bit too fun V-shaped for my liking.

With a collection like this, $300 looks more like a $300 loss than a bargain.

The first thing you'll notice is the loss of resolution compared to your other headphones. The Vali are great headphones at a certain stage of audiophilia. But if you already have higher level headphones, I don't see the point in downgrading.

Thanks for the honest advice.

I'm considering getting a better cable for my HLP, as Kennerton supplied it with their cheap cable.
What do you fellow Kennerton owner say? does Kennerton sound scale with better cables, or should I just get something basic that I conformable?

Good point.

I have disabled the signatures on this site cause of some people that have a signature with more words than most novels... I did miss that info in this case :)
