Barely used and comes with all original accessories and boxes. I emailed Focal and they confirmed these would have 4.5 years left on their warranty. They stated the warranty is transferable to the new owner with a copy of the receipt which will be included. Local pickup SoCAL OC, cash only...

I used to have the yellow one! with the anti tap feature. I specifically remembering turning on Megabass for that Smashin Pumpkins song and saying wow!

I had the Lazuli and the Kimbers but ended up selling them and just using the stock cables. I did try some customs off eBay with my original Utopias and found them to be just as good.

Another thumbs up for ES labs, yeah they are a little pricey but are well worth it imo

Schimmel C208T but can't play a tune myself but it matches my wife's brighter personality.

HHKB Type S for me!

I drink a lot of whiskey of all price ranges. I think Cutty Sark's Prohibition Blended is quite nice for around 50 usd. I had the 38 Royal Salute but can't really recommend it for taste. Beautiful nose but the taste falls off too quickly. Macallan is usually my go to and surprisingly enough...

I would recommend Maison Francis Kurkdjian's Baccarat 540 Extrait (the ruby bottle). It's basically maraschino cherry concentrated with some weight behind it. The Gentle Fluidity and Ala Rose is popular as well. I havent tried Aqua Media yet, but will try it when my 540 runs out.

With attention spans diverging into ultra short or long forms, will it be either 45 seconds or 45 mins in the future?

Hmm how did the topic completely change by this page from the original? Now with the wireless Sony DSP stuff is it even more confusing?

Good way to avoid that is to just use Harman How to Listen program to test headphones and train your ears. It's right that cans should be used to listen to music not the other way round

I like the shell design what is the weight of each?

Is it possible to make a compact version? A vertical orientation might be really nice.

Sony MDR Z1R...you can't beat physics. It's the huge drivers that shell out almost speaker like impact but with clarity.

hey new to head fi but not to hifi. hope to learn more though
