No but close-- it's in the middle of a 1 hour lake loop trail that's about a 5 minute drive from my house.
Yea now you are just showing off. Aka, I'm super jealous.

I don't mean to. I'm very grateful for where I live. Here's another shot from the same trail without my face in the way:

Yep! BC is amazing.
Tofino? BTW, 7Hz Timeless is fully burned in with 300 hours on it and I think you're going to like it. Let me know when you're back and I'll get it over to you. It's a pretty impressive piece of kit comments are just starting to Roll on the 7Hz discover thread.

Gotta add my own beautiful BC shot

A little while back we were working on a guy’s private island leaving for work at dawn by boat.. short of some heli trips to work back in my forestry days, this is about the most picturesque commute I’ve ever had.

I'm just stuck in suburban hell. Though I do have gorgeous country just a little over an hour away that I really need to get to more often.

And been 20+ years since I have been to BC, really need to make a trip back out that way hopefully in the not too distant future.

Be sure to look me up if you're ever in the area!

Oh wow. Canadian sceneries are so beautiful :) I wish I could visit there someday. Can't stand the cold though, so probably during the summer. Seems nice to go for a trail + IEMs. I hope the bears are friendly too

The EM5 are strange and I would say unique shell - they fit and stay in but I suspect could be tricky for some. The mx shell of my first Blur fit me very well, my next Blur is a pk so if that fits, I'll know I'm good for the bulk of options out there. Curious on the Ksearphone Bell style too.

I ordered a Yincrow X6 today too, high praise for a very cheap bud - about $11 from AliExpress, it'll be a good 4 weeks before I have it though.
If you're buying buds from AE, there is one I'm currently eyeing. The FAAEAL Rosemary https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001607851892.html (or visit store)

Curious to how they'd sound. As I like their tuning on my Iris Ancestor. Warmish and clear less detailed neutral sound. The timbre is quite natural too. Iris has 32 ohms, Snow Lotus 64, and Rosemary 150

Happy Thanksgiving to all and Jeff for this awesome thread. As soon as I heard the DT600, I had to send it over to @Rockwell75 as I was pinching myself in a disbelief how nice it sounded.

Amazing thing is depending on output impedance you can change its sound signature to bright neutral with a subbass boost to cater classical music fans like me.
Found the DT600 on Amazon :) Real tempted to give these a go. Their TOTL T800 too. Has 8 BA drivers. Would be interesting if they can compete with Moondrop's. Especially at half the price https://www.amazon.co.jp/s?me=AIT30RG3UKAKO&marketplaceID=A1VC38T7YXB528

LBBS is my current favorite. Very agreeable timbre with a highly resolving driver which scales up nicely when amped.

High on my list! Just wish it came with 4.4mm option.
