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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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 :)- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac

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...- Kerouac
