Third set of these I’ve purchased. Not a sextett but it’s a 600 ohm K240 Monitor. Got them from the original owner and he says he bought them in the 90s and they’ve mainly been stored since. Given the condition I’d say he’s being honest. Something about this headphone I’ve always enjoyed so happy to have a nice set finally.
Edit: Elear and Zen Stream too, so all last years purchases are in house
I myself wanna get a pair of classic pre china k240’s myself especially now I have the gear to drive them. Love how my 55 ohm sound even now. Something really attractive to their sound even though they aren’t really my preference and overall kind aboring but when paired with the right music shit just absolutely sings.
Bought this tiny lens last year! Right around Christmas! But usps for the first time had issues with me and it took them a while to get here! It’s a 23mm F2 so equivalent of 35mm on full frame. It’s nice because it’s imo the perfect framing for day to day things like carrying everyday! On my fanny pack.
Love those f2 lenses 🤌 the 35mm (50 equiv) is on my camera 98% of the time. Looks good!
I had a 35mm (50 equivalent) 1.5 and it really was 
and I will be getting one again in the future! Specially for portraits oof baby! But yeah I got this one mostly for carrying around with me everywhere. Very diverse, altho tbh I’m missing DSLRs so I might just get a DSLR in the future more actually photography purposes
Don’t try 1.2… lol you will be hooked.
Haha I bet, yeah bokeh is pretty addictive. Altho I don’t necessarily want much more shallow depth of field, more than I do background separation. Altho for that I’ll get a longer focal length
They’re also mucho dinero. I think 1.8 is a good sweet spot with digital. They are VERY sharp and decent enough in low light.
Word, they really crank up the money for the extra depth of field. Cheaper buying a longer lens. For bokeh
I got a chance to play with a 50mm .95 Zeiss lens one time… drool. But retail on it was like $6k at the time. This is going back some years.
About to start the year off right… buying a used susvara.
ey! gz!
Nice! What amp are you pairing with?
NICE!
Still undecided tbh, but I’ve been thinking about 2 amps in particular though. The first is the Enleum 23R, and the second would be the KG CFA3 I’ve been hearing about over on headfi. The amp is going to have to wait a bit though, so for now I’ll probably pair it with either my Jot2 or MLP being driven by my amber 3 until I’m able to get something that’s actually decent for the Susvara.
Just fwiw, headamp should ve releasing a CFA3 towards the end of the year if you want to wait for that instead of going diy
Thanks for the heads up! I may wait for that to come out then before making a final decision (or I may just go for the 23r lol).
Nice! That the one on reddit for about 4k?
I think so, I found it on head-fi but the guy said he also listed it on reddit. But yeah I got it for 4k, I definitely feel like I got a good price there as he hadn’t had them long and is (was) the only owner. Anyways, they should be showing up sometime next week. I’ll keep y’all posted!
