    What headphone(s) do you own ?

    Over Ear Audioquest Nighthawk - favorite since I'm one of those oddballs that can listen to these with no EQ since they sound like Ear Speakers to my ears. Audioquest Nightowl - closed can but like the Nighthawk with some changes to appease the haters but I prefer the OG NH tuning. Denon ah-d600...

    Review and Measurements of Project Polaris HP Amp

    I splurged for the armor variant but I also liked the see-thru version. I picked up some used Final A4000s for the soundstage qualities knowing I'd likely have my eardrums begging for relief from the hyped upper midrange/low treble tuning and the Polaris helps take the edge off of those IEMs...

    Review and Measurements of Project Polaris HP Amp

    I just picked up one of these to pair with a Grace m9xx and my treble sensitive ears love it. I've dabbled with tube amps before but didn't want to go down a tube rolling rabbit hole so I've been researching solid state options that might give me a tube like presentation minus the hassle and...

    Emotiva MC-1 Review (Home Theater Processor)

    If anyone uses the MC1 with a gaming PC it is susceptible like many receivers to the GPU under heavy load adding a nice horrible sound to the speaker outputs on more demanding games. Since I've had this happen on two different Nvidia GPUs (2070/4070) and different PC builds I don't think it is a...

    Axiom speakers - thoughts?

    I have the On-wall variants of the M5HP, VP160, M22, and M3 in our family room where we have zero space for traditional speakers. I wish Axiom was still a budget brand with ultra low cost from 10-15 years ago but I'm quite happy with the used models I picked up over time and decided to order the...

    Triad In-Room Gold LCR Speaker Review (by ErinsAudioCorner)

    I found a used center channel variant for $300 + shipping and shipping a mini coffin sized speaker at the time was about $100. I don't know how old the speaker is but it was in good condition and came from "The Music Room" where I've found a few nice used bargains over the years. All in all I've...

    Emotiva MC-1 Review (Home Theater Processor)

    Roger that and I'll report anything that is probably a deal breaker for most. I was already mentally prepped that I may have made a mistake based on some of the feedback I've seen in various forums but I have a long history liking Emotiva speakers/amps since the ERM 6.2/6.3 era and figured I'd...

    Emotiva MC-1 Review (Home Theater Processor)

    I picked up one of these in spite of the review/measurements since I don't have the coin for a super expensive surround processor that may measure only marginally better than this unit in terms of engineering analysis. I can say it is a noticeable upgrade over the Arcam 390 receiver I was using...

    7Hz x Crinacle Zero:2 IEM Review

    I picked up a pair of these recently and they are perfect for my treble sensitive ears. They pair very nicely with an Astell/Kern SR15 and no EQ but also sound very good with EQ similar to the review recommendation. I swapped the tips for some SpinFit W1s and I'm getting a good seal + tight fit...

    Arcam AVR390 AVR Review

    If anyone else is looking at one of these as a used lower price option I had a 390 in my secondary room for about a year and fed the pre-outs to an external amp. It worked pretty well and Dirac correction made a notable improvement since I had to mount surround speakers high near boundaries and...
