• The executive view of what is affordable may well very but at $260 with plenty of cheaper options at or below this price I would be somewhat wary of spending this March. I personally have just bought a pair of Lypertek Z3 for a mere $119 which I am sure are sonically easily the equivalent of almo...

  • I think this is right. Using DSC I was able to get from gold to platinum in 6 months July-Jan19 figuring that would likely be my only chance of getting to Platinum, effectively for 18 months as my year starts in July. Depending on the announcements ("enhancements"??) this may well be bae once onl...

  • I'd be more worried that, despite a Southern California desert roadtrip, all the pix are boring & grimy downtown LA (other than the Gehry Disney Hall?). What, no actual Joshua Tree desert shots? Obviously they left the photog in LA, lost opportunity.
