  7. Looks like they cheaped out on the input transformers (LL1544A I think). Bass response is poor on these compared to their bigger brothers (LL1690/LL1676) as is level handling - they'll clip from a lot of modern sources - which will ultimately limit the output signal.

  14. In one paragraph he bemoans how little streaming services pay artists, and in the next relishes his experience listening to bootleg Sonic Youth recordings.
  15. I don't know why anyone, other than the hardest core of audiophiles, would want any headphones with a wire anymore. So no specific recommendation (except that the B&Ws are overpriced for what they are, but you probably assumed that already) but a recommendation to look at Bluetooth phones.

  21. You didn't eat it? A floor would have to be pretty dirty to keep me out of an apple pie.
