I saw a video of it on youtube and looks pretty fancy. I never ever listen to CDs, but if I had a nice house and listened to music on CD I'd love having one. Definitely got the villain look

I think so too, nice to see my luck that like three days after ordering my most expensive audio item ever an upgrade is announced. Will use these for a week to see when the new ones show up in stores on this side of the pond. Got 30 day return for any reason so that should be fine.

I'm sure I praised your previous B&O purchase and now I need to look into acquiring some more. I have a Beomaster 1900-2 that I need to re-bulb and replace a capacitor or two in.

I used to work for a few B&O franchises and to my knowledge they never put out anything like that, they were always about clean looking design. The EQ in that particular unit is under the lid... and I lied, I have a 2400 which has a touch panel rather than the pitted buttons. Really need to get it out of storage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBPT4lsC5T0

Ah, then no. The only EQ/graphic poo poo I have in my audio collection belongs to my PA kit. I do need to buy some for hi-fi though because let's face it, it's loving cool as poo poo.

I really like smaller stereos in the 80s/90s that had good spectrum displays but I can't find any. They make new component EQs with them though.

Like DJCobal said, other brands such as Sennheiser as offer just as good products for much cheaper. With Bose, you're paying extra for the brand name. They're basically like Beats, except for the Mitt Romney crowd.

Ultimate Shrek Fan posted:That's not so bad. I bought my truck 8 years ago, 3 months before the price of all trucks magically dropped by about 10,000 You remind me of the apartment we bought in September 2008, like a few months before the market crashed. Upside: we wouldn't been able to get a mortgage in 2009 as I hadn't sold the other house yet. Downside: we couldn't sell the old apartment unless at a huge loss Upside: we rented it out at cost and now at a decent profit while housing prices are up and over 2008. The tenant is paying off the mortgage. Downside: complicated tax forms Biggest downside was the huge stressful time it all gave us. Wasn't worth it.

Wanamingo posted:Bose The more offensive product is their car stereo option in some cars. It's not much of an upgrade from the average. But you see the name and you're like oh ok let me crank this poo poo...oh. It reminds me of the laptops with JBL, Polk, or whatever logos. It's a laptop ffs. I fixed one with an Altec Lansing badge, it just sounded like a laptop. colas has a new favorite as of 12:47 on Jun 7, 2016 |

I would agree with wrt to regular headphones, but their noise cancelling option tend to be among the best. Even the wirecutter agrees there. They do have Sennheiser on that list, but as their luxury pick as they are more expensive than the Bose. http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-noise-cancelling-headphones/ I only take my Bose when I'm flying, otherwise I use my Audio Technica ATH M-50.

I got computer parts. No pics cause, they are computer parts. i7 4790k Corsair VENGEANCE PRO 16gb ram, in red cause that's the fastest color. Gigabyte LGA motherboard Corsair carbide plain rear end case Thermaltake SMART 700W power supply A friend is giving me a ssd and a 980 ti in a few weeks, so I can rough it for a bit with just the on board video. Gotta track down a good mouse and keyboard and see if they still sell the Microsoft Natural designs. Also gotta grab a cooler for the cpu once the new card rolls in, but that's like a month off. Tomorrow will be pc building day, and may god have mercy on my soul.

Not even gonna lie, blew my loving mind when I looked up that card, cause I was thinking it was like some 200 dollar card he was upgrading. Nope. Turns out he's going dual 1070 or some number like that. Shocked the hell outta me.

I fly around 10k a month for work and my BOSE noise cancelling headphones are a godsend. Screaming children? Dinging plane sounds? Flight attendant? Not a problem. I paid slightly more for them, but the noise cancelling just works.

 New boots for work. They haven't required safety toe so far, but with someone losing their toe recently in our company, I thought It would be safe to ask for a pair as my birthday president. They are so comfortable.
