    Oh my... if only I could go back in time :thinking: Luckily I can still use it in my (day)dreams :)

    Oh wow... another nostalgic trip down memory lane :) I had the Tralucent 1+2 myself back in 2015/2016 and for me it ended up (for budget reasons only) as part of a trade deal with an original Lotoo Paw Gold I remember that I mainly used it with a Rhapsodio 2.98 SG (98% silver & 2% gold) cable...

    Tahsin Sevgel Audio Devices Model2

    Whoa! That's a nice (good looking, informative and creative) introduction post to this new thread @ranfan :) I've been listening to and have been enjoying the Tahsin Sevgel Model2 a lot(!) over the past 2 weeks, and it certainly deserves some attention! For me it already has become some sort of...

    I listen to lots of genres myself and often in 'play all songs / shuffle mode' on my daps to keep it as varied as possible. So a soft pop song by London Grammar or Damien Rice can easily be followed by a rock song from Opeth or Nine Inch Nails for instance... For me there's only one golden rule...

    Congrats!!! And here a special (not sure if it has been posted before in this thread) song to celebrate 🥳🎉

    Well, that seems more like some sort of A-B-C testing to me :wink: Btw, when I saw your former post... ...I decided to do some A-B-C cable testing myself over here I have created a test playlist with 275 songs quite some time ago on my LPGT. As you mentioned that you listened to jazz...

    Hmmm... did I already mention that I like blue? :wink: A nice 'detail' (yep, sarcastic mode on) is that this combination also sounds fantastic (sarcastic mode off) to my ears :)

    Nope, sorry man. I guess that I'm just not a bootlegs kinda guy :sweat_smile: One funny annecdote that comes to mind though: in my 'puppy' days I went to Pandora's Box (some alternative indoor festival) in Rotterdam. During the Echo and the Bunnymen show (which contained a lot of Bob Dylan...

    Now, here's something new (just a teaser for now) to share with you all... So true and just for the record: my favorite colour is (and has always been) blue! :sweat_smile: 'Then: out of the blue Love came rushing in... Out of the sky Came the sun' Here's a live version of Roxy Musics...

    All this 'as the artist intended' talk made me think of my (good ol' Neil Young) Pono days :smile: I sold it eventually as I became totally fed up with the 4hrs battery life of that player. But now I'm sometimes feeling kinda sorry as I still believe it sounded superb (beautiful warm and...

    Effect Audio cables thread

    Well, I haven't heard/tried the 2 iems that you mentioned above, but imo this synergy combination was hard to beat on both eyes and ears... To my ears the Eros S AE added (compared to the CFA stock cable) some extra body and 'oomph' to the quite analytical sound signature of the Stellar...

    Effect Audio cables thread

    Yep, the best sounding (April 1) cable you'll never hear! :) But hey, who knows... maybe when you order 2 (or more) of those, EA might consider to give you a special 5-10% discount on that specific order? :sweat_smile: And after that they probably would be able to retire with the entire EA...

    Effect Audio cables thread

    Earlier this week I posted this pic (with a short story underneath) in another thread... Could it be just a coincidence that my two favorites of these CFA iems (both in the front row) had the best synergy (to my ears) with EA cables? I don't think so! :) Regarding the ConX system: I must say...

    Campfire Chat - Official Campfire Audio 2024 Thread!

    Just some friends gathering around a Campfire, having a good time while discussing (some of their own & some on a loan) iems :) From the top left, counter clockwise: CFA Ara / Andro ES / Solaris SH / Supermoon HK / Andro (OG) and Vega (OG) So, what did they end up agreeing (based on their...

    Effect Audio cables thread

    Yeah, I think that both the Andro & Vega OGs are still great sounding models these days. Many times over the past years I wondered if I should list them in the classifieds, like I did with multiple other (c)iems. But every time when I put them in my ears, I always realised that they bring...

    Effect Audio cables thread

    Now then, it has been a while (busy with that strange thing called life) since I posted on HF... and at that time these were my main listening combinations: EA Axiom + CODE 24 & CA Vega OG + CODE 24C But some things have changed over the past weeks. For starters: I hunted down a used UM Mext...

    Effect Audio cables thread

    So, this weekend I finally had some time (also some sort of welcome escape from hectic family life for a few hours) to start up the 'old engine' (LPGT) and give the new CODE 24 & 24C cables a try :) I put the CODE 24 on the EA Axiom and the 24C on the CA Vega (original version), as I had used...

    Effect Audio New Release | CODE 24 & CODE 24C Limited

    Whoa... this thread has escalated quickly (and mainly) into a cable debate over the first few pages... Anyhow (just here to help and not to debate)... I haven't had the time yet (got the 24 & 24C in 2 days ago) to do a serious A-B test myself. But I just noticed this post with multiple...

    Effect Audio cables thread

    Before I start writing about the strange things that just happened to me this afternoon, first of all Happy New Year and best (musical) wishes to all of you out there!!! :) Well then, I realize that the following may sound a bit (probably ''bring on the straitjacket'' kinda level) absurd, but...

    Lotoo PAW Gold Touch - Touchscreen, 4.4mm Bal, USB DAC, Bluetooth

    Same here! :) Last week I also picked up an extra leather 'coat' for my LPGT... The only thing that worries me a bit for the future is that at some point (still going strong atm) the battery has to be replaced :thinking: Does anybody over here already has experience with that? I think Lotoo...

    Effect Audio cables thread

    Same here... although I prefer to do my burn-in mainly by listening :) So far, so good... and I just thought that I even heard some Christmas bells in the distance... announcing something special coming up soon :thinking:

    Feedback by 'Kerouac' on listing 'SOLD'
