I am always glad to take vacations, but one of the things I would always miss out on was that my portable gear used to take a backseat to my speakers
But no more!
The DMPZ1 has been an awesome travel buddy. Made the trip from Hawaii to Australia with lots of battery to spare.
With the Red Halo/Orpheus it has been a great marriage of source/cable/IEM - with the Sony accentuating the BA
bass and enhancing the bone conduction effect.
Finally got around to ripping some albums onto an SD card so I didn’t have to tether it my ipad via USB.
Listened to albums not available to streaming services - for legal issues (De La Soul) and
batsh#t crazy reasons (the KLF - who literally set a million dollars on fire!). Even oldies like these
were well served by the Sony - it was like getting a dirty water hot dog served on a fine china.
A couple words on Melbourne. Oh my goodness what a world class city!
So clean, so walkable. Awesome parks, friendly folks everywhere.
And the food - so much variety with TOTL Thai, Indian, Middle Eastern, Vietnamese, Japanese, even Italian. They are prolific with great restaurants like their native sons King Gizzard and Lizard Wizard put out albums (20 in ten years and 5 this year)
I look like one of these fat wombats after each dinner
You know that any city with an AC DC Lane would HAVE to rock! Anyone with leftover cash from their audio budget should consider a trip here - absolutely incredible!
