Welcome back Alex..

Yep, there’s nothing like returning home after a nice well deserved vacation..

I don’t get back to NY much anymore but I also miss many food items like pizza
and some of the restaurants we use to frequent. I don’t miss New York winters either..
I want heat… lol

Good morning Alex..

The weather here in Oklahoma has also been hot and humid, unfortunately there isn’t any mountains near us to escape to.
We might have to travel to a different state like Arkansas to see them..

I recently purchased and experimenting with some new Audioquest I/C cables and a Oyaide Neo USB cable for my desktop
system. Right now I’m going through the break-in period..

While I was waiting to see if HiFiMan was going to have a sale on there Ananda Headphones, a pretty good deal came up on a
preowned Sennheiser HD 800’s that I couldn’t pass up so I took the plunge.. They should be here soon.. I’ll finally get to see
what all the fuss is about..

Morning all! Beautiful low humidity day in Minnesota. (Rare, so we take when we get it) some Starbucks Morning Joe as I listen to the Chord Mojo I just picked up. Great as a dac and decent as an amp. Also picked up some IXS iems that I’m breaking in. First iems I’ve had. Not bad.
regards,
Hibuck...

Morning to ya!

Chord moji..another stellar piece of gear!

Did you get it new or used? If you dont mind me asking how much did this set you back?

Never have had the chance to use one.
Alex

Stumbled across it for $285 shipped. Soundwise, I love it. I use it primarily as a dac, but it drives my HD800's
well and the ZMF Attiticus as well.

Good morning all (brand new here). I'm sipping my thermos of piping hot coffee, hoping to wake up, and can't stop thinking about my listening session last night! I recently moved to a new house, and of course rearranged my whole setup (as one does) and also treated myself to a few new goodies...it's only money

I do a ton of headphone listening and last month bought a pair of Focal Clears to add to the collection (I had previously purchased the Elears and didn't care for them, ended up returning them). I have been listening to them a lot the last few weeks and am thoroughly happy with them. Recently, I heard good things about the RME ADI-2dac/headphone amp and bit the bullet. It arrived the other day, and I have been spending unhealthy amounts of time listening to the combo. What a singing pair. I find myself going back and listening to all sorts of things with a new perspective.

Anyway, I'm here at the office and desperately trying to focus when all I really want to do it go back home, get comfortable, and sit on the floor with my headphones, some dark roast, and a good album. Sigh

Today I am drinking my lovely cold brewed coffee listening to the Martinu cello sonatas streamed via my all tube system upstairs in my office area. Very nice way to start the day. Martinu is interesting, he's kind of like 'the Hungarian version of Prokofiev' if I had to try to describe his sound.

Alex,

Funny you should mention LeAnne Rimes. While I’m not a big Country Music fan I do listen to her
occasionally like the other night. I love the way she sings the song “Blue” which I believe was to
be a Patsy Cline song, her voice is magical when she sings it. If you haven’t heard it, give it a try.
It’s also very well recorded..

Oh yeah, my morning coffee was at McDonalds. I had the the senior coffee (50 cents) and my
wife and I had a bacon egg and cheese biscuit.. 2 for one with a coupon.. yummy.. lol

There’s some good material on that disc but I don’t think it’s her best work.
