Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me....
.... and so on. Hi! Just want to dedicate my first post and say thanks to all of the guys participating on the content of the forum that made it an awesome base of knowledge!
Me, personally, I am just a complete beginner really, but I was fascinated by the idea of owning a quality sounding setup since my early teenage years. I was always fascinated by top-notch quality and technically advanced items for that matter. Time went on and I reached a point I was done with in-ear "headphones" for not more than 5-8 USD that kept breaking year after year after year, so I was looking for a quality item that would fit my low budget and tremendous inexperience. Went through different forums to learn the very basics and then I just thought "wait a second, what was that brand my long forgotten friend was all drooling about back then?" And that's how my Sennheisers HD465 spotted the light of the world. I knew they were not the best headphones around, but I liked the sound coming from them anyways. Completely different world from what I was used to, really! And the best headphones in my social circle by far. I also noticed their sound was much better, deeper and richer when plugged to my desktop rather than my laptop and I started to look forward to be finally home to be able to enjoy music. Knew I was hooked. And after years of good service and genuine memories (like all of them crazy parties in Norway with my friends and a DJ table
) the 465 headphones are sick now. I mean sick sick. So.... here I am!
I was also peeking in throughout the years to collect the missing knowledge. What do I need, why do I need it, what are the possibilities and what to make out of it when the time comes. Hours after hours after hours, countless of evenings.... BUT!
L-L-L-Ladies and gentlemen, it fills me with great pleasure to present you with my shiny new audiophile combo:
Matrix X-Sabre (not yet, but 99%)
Bottlehead Crack w/ Speedball
Sennheiser HD650 w/ Cardas cable (would rather spend the money on another tubes for the Crack than the replacement cable, but it came w/ the headphones... and I would probably buy one at some point anyways)
Foobar, yadda yadda...
... and all there is is just to climb higher! So glad to finally greet the community! Hi, how you doin', Head-fi??
Thanks for reading n' all,
Love, Pavel
