Just picked up a new set of Callaway Epic Max driver, 4h,5h,6-pw. Never will upgrade the Scotty putter. Needed lighter club, wippy shafts for my senior golf. Now we're looking at a blizzard so I’ll look forward to couple @doctorjuggles cables to arrive soon.Post a What’s In The Bag!!!!!

I gotta dig out all the Scotty’s for a group photo recently got a bettinardi too though and been very happy with itJust picked up a new set of Callaway Epic Max driver, 4h,5h,6-pw.

Callaway seem to have really upped their driver game the past few years. Last driver of theirs I owned was the OG Diablo which didn’t work out for me at all, but I tried their rogue ST lineup and ended up buying the LS, only to follow with the triple diamond a few weeks later haha… golf gear is a diff level of obsession and is “cheap” compared to the atrocity that’s IEM prices

I've discussed this with some friends. Whenever I have to pay 3-400 euros outside of audio I feel like I've just been robbed, when I pay less than 3000 euros for an IEM I feel like I got stupid good valueI just renovated and redesigned my entire patio for less than half of a totl iem price, and I kept thinking about the amount of money we spend on these tiny objects!

I am grateful to be able what I have, moreso when I see musicians rocking some chifi IEMs worth a quarter of my tips warchest during live performances.
Through this graph what do you tell me in comparison with KR5 and XE6? It's from my Ciem Em10, and you have a lot more experience than I do....It’s brighter, faster, less bassy - I’d generally flat out rec the 5 over the 6 unless you’re looking for either something with a lot of bass or thickness. The dynamics on the 6 are a step above as well, but staging would go to the 5, which imo is especially noticeable for rock

Not a clue honestly... very difficult to draw conclusions off a graph without a comparison IEM... Post it next to an A18S maybe - could be a bit more help then. I can only assist with tonality though, can't read much else off a graphThrough this graph what do you tell me in comparison with KR5 and XE6?

I believe it is complicated, the Em10 in general is warm, so from your impressions I still assume that the XE6 is even more.... Nothing like trying it out but I have no possibility even in my country it's complicated....Not a clue honestly... very difficult to draw conclusions off a graph without a comparison IEM...

The Xe6 responds quite nicely to sources - I pair it with the PAW S2 and I get a good quantity of treble, while the bass becomes cleaner and faster.I believe it is complicated, the Em10 in general is warm, so from your impressions I still assume that the XE6 is even more....

Speaking of which
N8II order probably getting placed today with impressions next week. Couldn't hold out, I need new toys

To be fair the majority of the money for the N8II are in my PayPal account, and everyone in the hobby knows PayPal money is monopoly money and doesn't count as real spendingYou can not handle.....
It will be interesting to see how your iems play on the N8ii with the new Dac, as far as I know, it has received a lot of praiseTo be fair the majority of the money for the N8II are in my PayPal account, and everyone in the hobby knows PayPal money is monopoly money and doesn't count as real spending

I wasn't interested because tubes aren't remotely close to what I enjoy, but then the reports of the neutrality/slight brightness started rolling in and I managed to convince myselfIt will be interesting to see how your iems play on the N8ii with the new Dac, as far as I know, it has received a lot of praise
I look forward to the day you call the N8ii bright and Head-Fi crashes from the fallout!I wasn't interested because tubes aren't remotely close to what I enjoy, but then the reports of the neutrality/slight brightness started rolling in and I managed to convince myself

First will come the burn in guysI look forward to the day you call the N8ii bright and Head-Fi crashes from the fallout!
Then I'll be using the wrong IEMs
After that, my bet would be on not using a PW FT or Orpheus
Lastly, the internal wiring and quantum stickers guys
