Abyss - Astell & Kern
What do you do when you have no money, you're depressed and bored, and simply want to replace the shitty Focal Spirits you have in the hotel?
Well, clearly the answer is to buy an Astell & Kern player, which makes sense given the crappy iPod I have.
To take it one step further, you buy a pair of Abyss headphones at full retail; don't cheapen the experience by looking for a discount. They are a close second to the my SR-009's, but obviously don't work on portable gear. Now I have to go to the boat and drag the Esoteric and EAR amp to the hotel!
Behold the professional pictures I took after 3 beers and 4 single malts:
Ivan, if you read this, don't sweat the turntable, my family need not eat for the next 4 months to fund this.
