Lol, I got four of those and haven't even taken them out of the packaging yet. Then again, my office is still a disaster of moving boxes.

Fuzzy memory says... 6-7 ish years old? I got it refurbed a couple years ago as an off-lease machine. I don't remember the model, but it was this form factor: https://www.lenovo.com/ca/en/p/desktops/thinkcentre/m-series-tiny/thinkcentre-m910q/11tc1mt910q

I've had Lenovo mini PCs before that worked just fine. Come to think of it I might even have an old one lying around at my parent's place no longer being used if you're interested.

Unfortunately I haven't heard the V590 v2, so can't offer any thoughts there at all. In the past I've heard a couple of the older Violectrics (sorry I don't remember which ones) and from my fuzzy memory they all share a similar sound, so again my stance would be unless you really really love the...

I haven't heard the V222, but I have heard the V281, used to own the BHA-1 (both high and low gain versions), and currently still have the SPL Phonitor 2. I also used to have the Phonitor X with built in dac which I thought was a tiny bit better than the 2 but not enough to justify keeping it at...

If you vacuum up enough dog hair you can probably build a bass trap in the corner :L3000:

Did you DIY the panels or buy some?

I have an EP 4-screw, but I've modded it into darkish territory mostly with damping material under the pads. A combination of felt and twaron "angel hair" fibres.

I haven't listened to them myself, but my wife thinks they are ok. They are lighter, but not as comfortable since they sit on ear as opposed to over ear. They isolate very well though, enough so that she thought they were noise cancelling at first.

If you pass by, please pick one up for me. I need to get some new bluetooth headphones for my wife. She keeps breaking hers (they get banged around in her bag since she never uses a case, wears them at the gym, etc).

Maybe the V-Moda 80? I used to have the predecessors which were wired, but I thought they were quite good. https://www.amazon.ca/s?k=v-moda+80&crid=1G94DD2THLEAC&sprefix=v-moda+80%2Caps%2C106&ref=nb_sb_noss I have zero experience with this one, but it looks like they are trying to bank on the...

Speaker amps may also have more DC offset than headphone amps. A big driver that can handle tens or hundreds of watts doesn't care, but headphone drivers are far less tolerant.

My dad worked at Navcanada years ago (back when it was called Transport Canada) back in the 90's. He wasn't an ATC, he ran the cafeteria, but he was there for over a decade and got to know a lot of the guys very well. He did note that there was quite a bit of turnover in his time and cited that...
