For those of us with multiple headphones, which ones are you listening with now?

Started track 1 seconds ago! Appreciate the tip.

So what did you think about fox capture plan? I love comparing opinions on music. I ended up listening to three of their albums straight through.

I sold my HD800S because I preferred my Utopia. I tried to keep them both for a few months but couldn't justify it. When I used one I ended up not using the other for weeks. Then I became focused on the one I was using to the exclusion of the other. With having only one set I obviously can focus my listening on that one and not be forced to choose.

Kiwi Ears Cadenza:



Vocals are stupidly good on these things. Still can't believe they cost me a measly $35. I actually took my T50RP 50th Annis off my head to listen to these for a bit again.

At home for New Year's and having a few drinks, so probably going to slowly work my way through my collection of headphones tonight, but for now it's just the Cadenza because I can't seem to take them off.

Edit: Almost forgot the most important thing, happy new year all!

I really enjoyed it. Will be listening to other albums later. Roon tags the album as Jazz, but I believe it is more jazz fusion Rather than pure Jazz

I'm glad you dug it! Some of their other albums are actually better, IMO. So if you liked that one you're in for a treat when you go through the others. It's funny you mention the tagging thing because Qobuz has their albums tagged as either jazz, contemporary jazz, or electronic and, like you, I find myself thinking they're more fusion.

Happy New Year everyone! 🎇🎆🎉🎊

Well Happy New Year to you all! Hope you all have a great 2024! Well, I can't listen to the Grateful Dead on NYE anymore, so tonight I get as close as I can. Streaming on pay per view Bobby Weir and Wolf Brothers (featuring the Wolf Pack brass section) live from the Broward Center For The Performing Arts. By the way that's Don Was on the standup bass. If you don't know, he runs Blue Note Records.
