Ja, it's quite the looker.

I did share a tragically funny story with Jonas at VE that happened two nights ago when my sister and 4-year old niece visit. It involved my adorable mischievous niece, her love for sliding things on (air hockey) and my EXT case used as a hockey puck on my granite floors.

I'll stop here and let you imagine my reaction.....

I didn't read the word case at first and processed "my EXT used as a hockey puck on my granite floors"...I literally stopped breathing for a second when I read that.

Haha, I went back to proof, edit my post and added a photo of the delicious dish I cooked to distract from the horror of my post.

I just heard from @Barra-- he's going to put me in touch with the Fir Audio rep to arrange a Canadian tour kit...wow!

That is very exciting. I have always been curious about Fir Audio, especially with the new technology they have released kinetic bass.

She loves playing air hockey and decided to my EXT case as a hockey puck on the granite floor.

Given the size and shape of it I think I would be tempted to do the same hahaha.

How did you explain it to the police when they came to arrest you? Because I would probably have been arrested for my reaction to something like that. Green mist and all that! 😅

Very good read - bandcamp has done a lot right by simply not getting massively involved and relying on human behaviour. Lets see how/if bandcamp changes over the coming years to continue to stay relevant!

Interestingly, that is pretty much the subject of a college assignment I'm working on!

I miss Napster. Just think how good it would be now with improved computing and internet speed.

@HiFiHawaii808 how is Mest with RS6?
I was listening the MEXT and Indigo yesterday with RS6. As soon as I listened to Indigo with RS6, I stopped switching. It is a sublime pairing. The RS6 has become my favorite DAP. 3 months ago I did not know the difference between R2R v. Delta Sigma DACs. After my experience with the RU6 and RS6, it's R2R or bust for me. As much as I love my Hugo TT2, I am seriously thinking about auditioning a Holo May as big as that monster is.

You are becoming the Audio Product gateway to Canada. What a great way to get a chance to hear everything.

I really like RS6, pairs fantastic with Thunder and Dark Sky, unfortunately I can’t get good fit with Latter, instead Aroma IEMs are perfect for my ears.
Also Mest Mk2 wasn’t perfect but for sure better than DS.
I thought many times to sell W2 for RU6😜
