Re: HCJ corrects audience clapping on the wrong beat

Amazing how much better it got, when they're clapping on 2 and 4. It just sounded wrong before.

Re: Best 007 themes

My favourite is Nancy Sinatra's You Only Live Twice, such a magnificent tune. But I admit I have a soft spot for Paul McCartney and Wings' Live And Let Die, too.

Re: Lightning or Wireless Headphones

I'm in the same situation the OP. Apparently the DA in the supplied adapter is of very poor quality, so the sound is actually worse than with iPhone 6. I'm thinking of going with the Apple lightning to camera adapter + an Audioquest Dragonfly Red DA/Headphone amp. Has anyone tried that?

ADSM/1 torque recommendations

Does anyone have torque recommendations for the ADSM/1? I assume they are different from the values for the KDS and KDSM.

Has anyone heard the the Sennheiser Momentums?
http://en-de.sennheiser.com/on-ear-head ... tum-stereo

I just did a quick comparison with some B&W P5's and the latter sounded broken in comparison. The Sennheisers sounded very musical and quick, yet not tiring and with solid, tuneful bass.

I was positively surprised by the quality of my girlfriend's Sennheiser HD600. Sometimes I use them late at night for movies with my Kinos. Dialogues are much easier to understand than through my Akurate 242's.

I can recommend the DUX Superspider, extremely comfortable. Unfortunately I haven't been able to afford one myself yet. As Chairs go, the DUX Pernilla 69 is also pretty hard to beat. http://www.dux.se/product_specifications/swedish/DUX_Superspider_PRODUKTBLAD.pdf http://www.dux.se/product_specificat...

The amount of perceived bass always varies depending on where you listen. I have the same thing with my 242's. Especially if your listening position is close to a rear wall, it can boost the bass a lot. I wouldn't recommend such a position. My position is about 60 cm away from a rear wall and that's...

I have the ADS, 2007 version, not 2010 version :-(
Then again, I've never tried the 3.4.2 Beta, onla the standard Cara 4, which at the time was overwhelmingly good.
