Moving in to my new man cave.IMG_20210325_195343.jpg
Nice!!! My only man cave is in the crawlspace under the house, but I only bump my head occasionally on the floor joists now that I've gotten used to it. :smile:

My last piece came in, an RCA switcher. This is my living room system for the foreseeable future:

All four amps now have access to the Schiit Loki, if so inclined.

I posted pics of my home office / music room man cave but thought I'd add the mobile setups since they get plenty of my daily ear time as well.

On top of this list is the Audeze LCDi4 for my daily 5-mile hikes through the neighborhood hills and trails. For being alone with nature, music and great expansive sound, this little wonder just can’t be beat.

And here’s my car system: the JH Audio Layla CIEM driven by Chord Mojo. I can’t imagine anything better for the car. It makes the normally stressful commutes around SoCal so much more tolerable and actually quite enjoyable.

And, finally, my pandemic-furloughed trio of the Sennheiser MTW for the gym (weightlifting and racquetball), Sony WH-1000XM3 for business travel, and a waterproofed iPod shuffle and Underwater Audio waterproof earbuds for lap swimming. I have to admit that I miss using them but mainly I miss these activities that had to be abruptly abandoned a little over a year ago.

Before me and my wife moved here we lived in a much smaller house where my listening space was in the laundry room. When i stretched my legs out my feet were inside the washing machine! I wish I had taken a photo for comparison^_^

I don’t want to sound preachy, but I would seriously advise against wearing CIEMs whilst driving.

Here in Germany it’s very illegal.

Yes, not the safest driving practice but I only use it for long freeway drives through routes I'm very familiar with. Over here, it's quite common and you see drivers with the familiar AirPods sticking out of their ears all the time. It's not legal here either per se, but they don't really crack down on it here. It is legal to have one ear with a Bluetooth ear bud for phone usage so, if people see a cop, they just take the other one out.

I think I remember reading about TWS earphones that were designed for use in motorcycle helmets...

I’m not gonna lie, I’ve definitely used IEMs under my helmet when riding a motorcycle. Not safe, but deaf people can drive without hearing outside sounds though, right? :thinking:

@CJG888 - in SoCal (South California), CIEMs in your ears while driving is the least of your concerns... :wink:
