Cool, thanks! I'll also copy your post over at the Free FLAC thread.

 
I'm glad you mentioned that thread...thanks.  Didn't know it was out there.  Interestingly, it only allows references to FLAC files so now I'm wondering if there's other threads on other hi-res freebie formats...LOL.

Linn's 24 bits of Christmas is back!

They have one free today to kickstart this year's giveaways. Here's the LINK.

Great news!!! I got the ones from last year and were great, downloading the one from today, thanks mate

Ditto on the "Boxed Shipment" status for the Like New HD 700.  Also ordered on Thursday.

My Like New should arrive tomorrow. But then I paid the $499 price
 
Still a good deal.

I think it's just lossless in general as most places have both FLAC and ALAC. Even goes to stretch to just free music in general (that's not illegal) as sometimes someone just posts mp3 or aac albums that are free.

lol I should have read your post first, but whatevers. I liked the q701 immensely except it was a tad bit too bass light and those damn bumps. seems like both problems have been fixed and its only $50 more than the $149 q701 drop. seems like a solid deal.
 
i probably don't *need* it or will use it that often with my he-560, but hell why not. it's black friday!!!

I'm also looking at the possibility of a wireless headset (Sennheiser RS170 or RS180) but even with the "KLEER" wireless tech they claim, I'm super skeptic. How good can the amp be built-in the headphone? It is on sale though $180 and $190 on Amazon and Sennheiser site. Then again, I can go portable with the HE560 and Ibasso DX100.

  Hey all, I'm listening to my new RHA MA750i IEM's that I got for $80 last week.  I must say, I'm pretty impressed with both the build quality and the sound quality.  As I'm relatively new to IEM's, I'm having trouble deciding which tips to use and getting the best seal.  But so far, with a good seal, the sound is really nice.  Very balanced sound signature, slightly mid-focused without being dark or veiled.
 
It looks like they're still $80 shipped from Newegg (compared to $130 on Amazon).

I've got the RS170's, having replaced my oooooooooold Senn units of many years.  They are what they are.  I need to change out the earpads on the 170's they were soooooo bad.  They do a good job for listening to TV and the like when you don't want to wake anyone up, but I wouldn't buy these expecting too much.  That's my take.

You mean the used ones?  That's a heck of a good price if you buy them new.  Again....don't expect too much and I think you'll be pleased....well, aside from the literally crap pads.  They're ridiculous.  Further, they don't even list the proper replacement pad but I've got that worked out should you get the 170's and want to upgrade...just ping me and I'll set you up with the product code.  They're not cheap but they're soooooo much better.

128GB are a fairly new size, not going to be cheaper until maybe February-March of next year.

Tiger Direct had some for $20 yesterday. I wouldn't be surprised if we see that price in the days ahead.
