    how much was all this audio equipment? literally nothing compared to the cost of the cables to hook it all up with.

      Never ask:

      • A man his salary
      • A woman her age
      • An audiophile how much they paid for their hoard

       

      On second thought, ask all of those questions.

      • Secrecy is how employers get away with wage inequality.
      • “I didn’t know she was 17” does not work in a court of law.
      • An audiophile will proudly point at their favourite budget headset. I mean, the Samson SR-850 is just insane value for its price. Sure, it’s a symphony of plastics, the design is just a straight rip-off of the AKG K240, and the fixed cable is a bummer, but the frequency response and the soundstage are out of this world. Plus the impedance is only 32 ohms: it easily runs out of a smartphone.
