hifi

Purple rack for the purple app

Today @matthewb & I are at Audiofest - a hi-fi conference

it’s a weird sub-culture but somebody’s gotta document it, will post more later today.

Farcaster-native research: https://paragraph.xyz/@matthewb | prev. Juicebox, Nouns, RAW DAO | casting about coffee, hi-fi, and other rabbit holes

first up is this system with Vimberg speakers, Metronome DAC/streamer, Vinnie Rossi hybrid tube/solid-state amps and preamp. $120k+ USD total.

pretty meh, nothing special. had some weird colouration, tonality didn’t sound right to me. honestly if I were an outsider to the industry and walked in, I’d never guess this was worth the same $$ as a really nice car.

here’s a thread with some system descriptions and reviews from the show:

co-host of /music // musician + dj // photographer // internet money // venture curious // cars // inside wireman

The first time I listened to my favorite music on really good headphones, it was amazing. The whole world got deeper and brighter. It was like being born. Old boys be chasing that dragon. I get it though.
