Overkill source but I really enjoy the Final E3000 for what they are.

WOW...
2nd gen Monk (Old Monk Black), CMIIW... in mint condition.. you got good & SR stuff there...

Compare to the new Monk V2s, Old Monk quite spacious soundstage sounding... while new monk V2s, more Mid clarity, IMO it seems a better version of Monk Lite (40 Ohm)

Dang, those all look nice, your cable work? :beerchug:

This is an early stack (albeit tiny) the Shuffle attached to the BW AP001 has always just sounded awesome to my old ears :grin:

I've gone through several pod rings but they still look new to me:v:

I will say the **** 4In1's also sound incredible on this rig as well :wink:

@Redcarmoose , I noticed the bold IMR on the 2023's mine were actually first runs I believe. They even look brighter but it could be your excellent photography too :thinking:

The new Benjie X6 touchscreen (but no longer available but you want their new X1 like this anyway) with BrainWavz Koel's cabled with BGVP DM5 cable :wink:

Hiby R3 Pro Saber 2022 and the 7Hz Dioko with the NiceHCK PurpleSE cable which just arrived and matches so nice with the Diokos...

Sweet setup and great recording, how sweet it would be if Hiby had that color purple in their chassis. :thinking: :v:

Thanks! That would be gorgeous... if they made the R3 with that new color from the R6 Pro II I'd replace my red one with it 😍

It's not related to sound but it's so nice what you can do with different cables... it's kind of a style statement where you "feel better" with personalized things. Also it's the proof that one don't need to spend more than $20-30 to get a nice cable that has great quality, looks good and sounds good.

Now I'm thinking which one should I get for the Shozy Black Hole Mini in stainless that is on the way :D

You know I gotz a serious case of cable envy going on with that :wink:

THX @fokta , I'm feelin' yo vibe now:grin::v:



Of course whenever I get the Monks out I always grab my Panda's as a couple of Tom's improvements hang right with the Monks:thumbsup:




They absolutely sound spectacular on my CMOY John built to specifically drive my 712's, you can hear a pin drop in them provided your listening in a relatively quite place :wink:

Well it’s called the Penon Vocal and it’s really a blessing with darker IEMs and it is the first cable I have come in contract with that boosts vocals?

This here is the ISN EST50 that gets a great boost in vocal performance as well as bass pace!

The other is called the SHOZY B2, which typically can come with the ISN SC4 cable, but the Vocal Cable adds the midrange, actually upped midrange Pinna Gain and opens the stage too. The cost is $69.00 for the Penon Vocal!

But the SHOZY B2 and ISN EST50 were the best I’ve ever heard them today, with this cable?

Oh no Mr. Bill, hit another nerve on the 4In1's! Guess it is tied to another unmentionable out here :scream: For $78 this setup literally gets it:wink::v:

Love Caligula's Horse. How does the RN6 fair with metal? I have the Mentor now and really like it, but I am curious.
Rn6 is excellent with all of the metal I've thrown at them so far. They really sound fantastic with prog metal, like Caligula's Horse, Haken, NeO, etc.

I think I'm 4 or so weeks out from hearing Mentor on tour so I can provide some comparative notes then.

Sounds good. Thanks!
