I always wondered how these would measure. They've been around for quite a while and consumer reviews always seemed rather positive. Never heard them, though. I guess you get what you paid for. $90 for a pair is suspiciously cheap. :D

I used to have a Sony X1060 back in the day, and the regional volume limiter could be bypassed by setting the region to Japan and flashing the appropriate firmware, if I remember correctly. It was many years ago. :) Maybe something like that is possible on your model as well? I use a Hiby FC3...

Hahaha, so true. Genelec; ending marriages since 1978.

...'till Genelecs-in-the-livingroom do us part.

The custom wooden stands are very tasteful. That's a spicy price to pay to keep the wives happy, though.

Would be cool to have a theme editor for the display, or the ability to upload community created visualizers. And I mean actual visualizers, purely there for show and fancy pants lights on your desk. :D Also, if they could integrate with Aida64, that would be even cooler. You could use the...

If I go all the way to the checkout, the price stays the same for the pair. Also, people have bought them during FNAC's previous sales and reported they did indeed receive two speakers.

KEF LS50 (a pair, black) for €475 seems like a pretty good deal. Found it over at FNAC. Shipping is €17 outside of France/Belgium. Could pair it with this €76 AIYIMA A07 over at Amazon DE.

I would NEVER buy a "better" DAC than the Realtek 12xx series chip that's in your motherboard for a $30 Superlux headphone. It wouldn't make sense, economically. Also, those 12xx series integrations are often pretty decent, so I'm sure any improvement on your Superlux would be marginal at best...

I hear a lot of good things about these. I'm sure they're a killer value. Things mostly are when Crin is involved under a $100. I'm still sticking with my Moondrop Aria's, though. They're good enough. :)

Thanks! I was focusing too much on the lower frequencies.

Ah, you're right. I've compared them again now and see what you mean.

"Ultimate" award, "Competion Killer" and wholly different measurements over at AlphaAudio. Strange. https://www.alpha-audio.nl/review/review-tad-evolution-2-vloerstaande-luidspreker-concurrentie-killer/4/ These look like a pair of Jamo's to me. For $20K (€14K for the pair overhere, btw) I need...

I only strop them! Obviously I'm not a "hard" user. The worst they see is a stubborn apple, zip tie or parcel. :p If I need to really cut up something more drastic, I use the Leatherman. That blade's edge looks anything but nice and defined. Also, the Vosteed is brand new. I just received it so...

Current favorite is the Vosteed Nightshade Lt. Impeccable action and ergonomics, drop shut action, cuts like a laser beam.

hahaha not my pic! Found it on Google Images. Was trying to show off the awesome Ikea builds I saw floating around. Then again, I'm sure that's what they all say when someone catches their magic treble crystals.

Build your own using cheap bamboo food prep planks from Ikea. :)

Would the landlord object to easily removeable, non-permanent acoustic panels? You don't even have to drill holes in the wall. Just put em on risers/stands at around ear level. DIY acoustics panels using Rockwool (or similar material. I use Akotherm, which is polyesterwool) are cheap and easy to...

Hahaha sorry, English isn't my first language. Thanks.

Just mount a pair of white Genelecs to the wall. These look hardly intrusive. Have the cake and eat it.
