Well I never suffered as some did nor jumped on the negativity train as I was never and I mean never slighted by the engineer (Salesman, Con Artist, Swindler or a host of other titles) issued upon Bob! Still own 75% of the TA releases as well as both R1 & R1 Zenith and love them all but hey as I said I understand where many are at with the old TA:thumbsup:

But back to the Jomo's, they were so sweet looking they inspired me to que up this one:grin:



And for those who may not be a fan of this awesome multi talented musician or know some of his work made famous by others this one is still better by the composer IMO:wink:

Been using the Cayin N8 with a TH900 headphone for on the go listening. Well just picked up the JVC iem and it sounds like a headphone and makes on the go listening easier to do.

Bolstering my anticipation even more:scream: LOL I guess I'm as guilty as anyone out here when it comes to neglected gear and it is "Nobody's Fault But Mine" (Seems I've heard/read that somewhere before):rolling_eyes: It's all relative when it comes to next big thing too:thinking: In all honesty there is so much good stuff one really just needs to find what they like and stop and enjoy it for a while then reach into the goody bag and enjoy another setup the same way:wink: Since I have you here let me also thank you for all the music you have posted on your profile as I really like a lot of it (Plant 43, Mikron, Carl Finlow, Silicon Scally, Absolute Fiction and Umwelt (Are they a German group)? Some of it is a little dark for my liking but I like uptempo Electronica:thumbsup:

Lol, many Electro groups can have German sounding names or style and it may in a way be an aesthetic tribute to Kraftwerk? But Umwelt is from Lyon, France. Carl Finlow is Silicon Sally which is English. But yes, I have always been into that style but now more so for some unknown reason? Glad you enjoy! Cheers!

I posted some brief early impressions here:
https://www.head-fi.org/threads/jom...iscussion-thread.811527/page-28#post-14663753

My full review is almost finished and will go up on @twister6's blog soon (depending a bit on his planning).

Good stuff Wyville:wink: Referring back to your reviewing of mini training rigs (although I'd never really take this one to the gym) it is probably my smallest rig in stature but to this day the ASG Rockets are the best micro driver I've ever heard and for me sound wise this tiny rig is huge:grin: Kindly referred to as my "Titanium Tornado" the finish on these two are like a perfect match:thumbsup:

I have never heard them myself, but remember reading some very positive things about those! They certainly look like they would work very well for training. And definitely a perfect match! :D

My portable setup for the past 4 months. I don't carry a DAP when out and about as I need instant response for calls and texts. I've cycled through pretty much every thumb stick USB DAC/amp and I've finally found my out and about setup. It's nice not having to use an USB A/C adapter. Sure, the Impacto eats about 10% battery per hour with mix resolutions, but I really only listen to the setup for 2-3 hrs tops, and if I really need the long haul, the battery solves the problem without noticeable weight.
