Thanks Moe - trip is actually business, but I'm allowed to take Tania this time which makes a nice change. Around the World in 20 days - so it's a bit of a whirlwind (lots of timezone changes).
Wokei - X5ii is crazy powerful. HD600, high gain, 60/120 and its more than enough volume for me.
Same refined, clear and clean signature as th X5 original - but they've added something. It seems a little more lively - involving. Just first impressions - too early to tell yet.
For anyone who's about to get the X5ii though - CAUTION - headphone out is on the right, line-out is on the left. Just as well I had the HD600s - because if I had been using the DN-2000J I think you might have heard a shriek of pain![]()
Yep - gotta love Twin. He keeps me on my toes.![]()
BTW - just noticed your custom title. Nice. Did you ask, or did it just appear?
Its a sign..someone is trying to tell you something...![]()
Hi everyone. Thanks to Wokei for the invite, and he said the rule was to post a pic of my gear. I probably won't ever do that, but what I will do is introduce for the first time, my new headphone (inside the accompanied box) to this Head-Fi thread. I'm pretty sure it shouldn't be too difficult to find out which headphone is in the accompanied box:
Take care everyone, and happy listening!

Hey bro, good seeing you in the thread![]()
Hope the he-1000 treats you right~
Does a title only appear after you reach 3,000 posts or more as a Headphone Supremus? It gets assigned and you can't choose it? Interesting, if so. Always wondered how it worked.

Nope - has nothing to do with post counts, and is assigned by mods/admins. I think it's pretty much either by request, or at least with prior approval.
My elevation to Contributor was "out of the blue" though - just appeared one day. For that one I was quietly chuffed - like being recognised by your peers for contributions to the community.
To my understanding custom titles have many meanings. They can be rewarded for certain tasks or applications, they can be used to identify banned members, caution traders, aliases of banned members, members of the trade, sponsors etc. They can be also be used as some tongue and cheek from the moderators.![]()
They do not just appear after a certain post count, they're assigned to individual members, like Wokei, for specific reasons....

Cool, thanks for the clarification Luke.
On mobile Contributor shows, but other "custom" titles don't, as well as other identifiers such as Headphone Supremus. I always thought Contributor was after a certain post count as well. Hmm...
