Yeah, we're all build different and prefer different signatures. Audeze has moved away from thick and dark over the last couple years. I like HiFiman as well for its strengths. Itching to hear the HE-1000!! Headphonebar will be getting them in. Gotta make a trip when not so busy.

They're a real treat. Im loving them. If i had the money... they'd be as good as mine. You're lucky to have a high end store where you're at!

I realize I've never posted a pic of my actual Lab..............

Here she be!!




This is where I spend my days churning out crud.

I could really use some matte black headphone stands with stainless steel accents though.

Edit: One day I'll post the reverse side when it's a bit cleaned up.

 Nice setup if one needs a stand and is a lab member, maybe he should PM someone that knows someone that knows were they are made and knows how to get the goods. You know what I mean lol.

You guys were soooooo right about these, I cant get over the price still. There is still companies that care about getting quality products out there at a reasonable price, I didnt think there was any companies left lime that. So Vince the A73 are that good for the price? How long was the shipping waiting period for them?

Speaking of laptops, I got a notification from Microsoft for a free upgrade to Windows 10. Did any of you guys get that?

According to the news, Win 10 is supposed to be released at the end of July. I guess MS is just getting the word out early and trying to get people to reserve - probably so they can do a slow, steady roll out as opposed to everyone trying to upgrade at once. It is free, and you can just cancel/ignore the upgrade if you change your mind. If your machine can run Win7, then 10 shouldn't be a stretch.
 
On the other hand, 7 is pretty damn good (I use it) and should be more than functional for quite a while (since I need a new laptop anyways, I'm not going to bother with the upgrade considering a new machine probably will already have it installed).

They are on Penon Audio for $149 it includes shipping and you will usually get them in a week. I'm just warning you though, the soundmagic e80 review is going up soon and it's going to be rated very high as well.

I'm sticking with 7 then. I'm not going to try to fix it if you guys say it isn't broken.

Thank you for the insight I'm honestly pretty ignorant about computers aside from the basics.

Probably a good choice. Honestly I thing the biggest reason MS is pushing the new OSes (8 & 10) is to get cross-platform uniformity - but who uses a windows phone/tablet in the first place
