These look amazing

@foccius right? I do too. Someone please reissue these albums!

@zeus I actually grabbed all these from a record plant’s flickr page. They have a ton of samples of variants they’ve done posted there.

Dropping the link here for anyone else who wants to match variants to their favorite albuns

So I actually got the Ace 2 and have spent some considerable amount of listening time (they’re a gift to a family member, but I still have access to them for sighted testing and measurements.) The bass driver for the hybrid configuration is flabby, but holy hell is the xMEMS Cowell tweeter monstrously detailed. It’s like listening to a Stax estat inside a car with cheap subs (not entirely my cup of tea.) It makes sense because the tweeter is literally sat right in front of the bass driver.

Still waiting for the Cypress full-range drivers to be implemented in 2024~25, but yeah, no hyperbole, groundbreaking.


I’ve always found Picture Discs to be tacky, but the rest of those variants look really cool. The day I get my hands on a nice used direct-drive turntable to actually play the damn things is when I’ll start picking up more vinyl.

Mana Sama I love you but I cannot possibly spend that much money on you :sob: I am but a broke lady!

I loved that one long coat with the blue inside from his brand, but 1). only male sizing so rip me, 2). 440 euro excl shipping and taxes??? Nope, not within my budget

I wish I could write something up for the best of 2023 threads, but somehow I didn’t listen to much new music this year… and I still haven’t even gotten around to listen to sukekiyo’s new album.

I shouldn’t laugh but I literally can’t help I’m crying:

I had youtube search history enabled sometimes earlier this year because the default home screen looks fug and hollow w/o it turned on, and this is the first time something VK-related pops up in my watch suggestions so I guess the algorithm thinks it figured me out LMAO

This may be a bit crude, but the biggest takeaway I got from the new madmans esprit MV is that that one scene is the perfect clip for the “This is my kingdom come” meme, lmao

Do you know this?

When you see the name or look of a band before you hear their music. Somehow even just a band name can make me exited about them. But will I like their music?

One example for me was Kakumay. Somehow I think it’s a pretty solid choice for a band name. But i was a bit hesitant to actually listen to them. Luckily I like their mudic as well.

Also splendid god giraffe… but that is such an absurdly cute name I don’t even care if their music is good. I just need that name printed on things :joy:

the bad thing about winter is that it’s my chill season so I just lay on my bed and not want to do anything all day so I haven’t been motivated to exercise lately or get out of the house on my off days :sob:

it’s also pretty distressing when my weight hasn’t changed all this time, but at least that’s better than getting worse lol
