Funniest thing to arrive inside a Chifi package, so far!

2.5* hours, that final large pitcher was the dagger lol.

It was a great experience going to my third NYC CanJam and meeting some of the WC legends, some new friends, as well as trying out amplifiers that still tempt me to add them to my household despite my wallets' constraints. That being said, I did walk away with two gorgeous toys [ZMF Caldera & WA23 LUNA], and look forward to how the gear shakes up over the next month or two.

Shout out to Zahl HM1 and Feliks Audio Envy 25th Anniversary edition for the endless temptations and hauntings.

I had also just finished 2 hours of bottomless mimosas with @tawmizzzz right before then. That noisy ass CanJam floor wasn’t the vibe for me at that time 😅🤣
This is how you do it 🤣

I’m bummed I didn’t get to meet you, @Sifo , or @tjzurlaaa and whoever else I never crossed paths with.. but there’s always next time 😏
You should get a tie made out of your linens, you'd be recognized instantly. And @twister6 should carry around his countertop! :grin:

Likewise brother. How are you enjoying the Mjolnir?

Absolutely love it. I never thought I'd spend this much money on something that I can't... pocket... but man it sounds so damn good. The way it stages/images with its crystal clear and smooth tonality is just incredible.

Hi all. I am hoping some folks ( especially if you live in the UK ) can help me with a question. I have a friend that is finding a good price on some gear he is interested in from a place called: hifonix.co.uk
Does anyone know if this is legit and a good company? Tks.
They are legit and I can say one of the best customer service in the business.

First thing I'm listening to after coming home from Canjam. After hearing all that TOTL goodness, it's nice to hear Quattro stand tall with the best.

I see you have Monachaa in your signature! Can you kindly comment on how you hear Quattro vs Monachaa?

Isn't one of these $400 and the other $2000?

I hear completely different iems. Certainly, the Monachaa tuning is a superior experience. But I would not discount Quattro for its lovely analog and speaker packed presentation. The cost of both together is still less than most of the other TOTLs.

Thanks! I've owned Monachaa myself and it's not quite the "lovely analog" type that I expected from the prototype I heard. Technicalities aside, sounds like a nice EDC or fun set to have around!
