Oh yeah. They are great fun for techno and the hardcore leaning Drum&Bass.
For electronic hardcore and speedcore, the treble is murder.
Since Friday evening, they have been running on the LakePeople G103-S doing everything from a movie, gaming (MassEffect 1) and a lot of “mindless electronic”.

And here, even the bass is too much:
Unfortunately I couldn’t find a Dignas case for my LPGT, so instead I ordered a Valentinum case instead. I’ve used him several times before for my DAPs but I have to say this might be his best work yet. The leather is a terrific quality and feels so soft and smells amazing too lol
I finally got around to upgrading my PSU for my Chord Qutest (previously using an iFi X-Power).
So far it’s a solid upgrade with typical results from improving power in gear (blacker background, greater dynamics, better imaging and separation).
I’d like to eventually add a Supanova cable since I’ve found it does similar things.
Just bought a new streamer…
looking to get a DDC and LPS this weekend.
Make sure you get a DDC that accepts input from a Coax SPDIF source, there’s not nearly as many of those. The WiiM limits you to SPDIF out only.
whelp 
great point… all of the DDCs I was looking at only have USB input. The only one I found thus far with coax input is Denafrips gaia which is crazy $
Might need to rethink this a bit 
What’s your total budget? Include cables and any other must have features? We can move this to the help threads.
Denafrips supports it with the Hermes as well
My airpods died this morning. Got the new Airpods Pro 2, these legit sound good.
They really shine with Spatial Audio driven material, but even in two channel stereo they sound good.
My HE1000SE is arriving today. Pretty hyped.
I’ll be interested to hear your impressions. I’m curious how you think it stacks up against the sus. Some feel they’re close, others not so much. Hope you enjoy!
Early first impressions is that they sound much “thinner” or more transparent than the susvara. They sound kinda close to an estat in that respect. There is some emphasis on the upper treble and the sub-bass is definitely noticeable. It has less body than the susvara but is almost there in terms of resolution. I could see someone preferring the hekse over the sus depending on their preferences, since the hekse is more forward while the sus is laid back. The hekse also sounds really quick. I think this would be a great one-two combo with something like a utopia. It’s probably the most resolving at it’s price category in the used market imo.
Another HE-1000SE inbound!!
I had envisioned the HEKSE filling exactly that role in my setup. Looking forward to comparing notes!
Not necessarily a “purchase” but my replacement susvaras have been shipped. Excited to hear them again.
Genelec G Three active monitors, found a nice deal on them and wanted something on my desk so when I don’t use headphones it doesn’t come from the 2ch far from me on the left
This is definitely overkill but I’ve been looking at these for a while, couldn’t resist when it showed up on USAM lol
Oh, man. I’ve been pining away for a pair of ‘naked’ Genelec’s.
(I know they call the finish Raw)
These two are coming in next week. I think it’s the first time I’ll be directly comparing two dacs. Erco will be used without a hypsos.
