Now after couple of hours they sound amazing with my Marantz SR6007! Much better than at store with headphone amp (was some around 1000 headphone amp, dont remember the brand tho) and expecting them to get better with around 100 hours of listening.


Marantz always have put quality headphone amps in their receivers
kinda interested in whats in there, ill google when I have time

some believe burn in is a placebo or whatever you call it, cant think of the word right now

I noticed big difference in mine when I left these to play for loudish volume for 2 hours when I went to shop. Straight from box the sound wasnt really great, sounded so tight but now it sounds much better.

edit: Wow, this receiver takes so much more out of these headphones than the amp at the store. At store the bass was little light, but now.. There sure is bass!

Amazing speaker. Noticed that Marantz SR6007 is not made with 6mm² speaker wire in mind, took me 1 hour to figure out how can I get it in there with pleasing result. Gotta love how this speaker sounds and looks even tho I still have to wait for my own color and have to do some adjustments.

Here:
This is my correction:
"Are you alive? For you, here, you'll love it; here, take hold of the reins!

He died in darkmist...

He thrived where most people won't go!

You're not adrift, are you?

I've cursed my/this gift and hope you'll never know!

For you, here, you'll like it, guess what, I got a new break coming on!

Snap into my verse, punching holes in dry wall!"

It sounds like this after listening more:
"Am I alive?"
...
"I'm not adrift. Am I?"
...

Here's another link that might work if the Tunesbaby link doesn't:

If anyone else wants to guess what Jerry Cantrell might be saying, please do...

Lee rage smash.


Picked up a Sansa clip zip, For $25 for Black Friday.

Nice, Cheap, Small, Effective Flac player.

Got it to play like 20 minutes, then it froze & i had to format it.

Happened a few times.



Said fuck it, And modded the firmware to Rockbox, As i was thinking of doing it anyways.

Works great now.

Buy 64gb micro Sd card, So i can fit all my flacs onto it

Spend fucking nearly 3 hours copying 50+ gb of music to it (@5mbps for some reason)

To find out that its the wrong format, Needs Fat32. And sd cards over 32gb are by default Exfat








FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU



So now i re-formated it. And i have to re-copy all my music over to it.

Fuck.

Well turns out i'm an idiot.

I ~ALWAYS~ Read comments before i buy something, And was in a hurry last night.

Managed to buy a sd card that had all 1 star reviews, Card quit working.

Shows as a 1tb micro sd now

Anything you add / format / partition / etc. Gets erased the second you un-plug it from your pc.


Fuck.
