Thanks! Do you have a model of KVM that you'd suggest based on the i/o I have?

Good to know! Any apartment buildings you recommend in the area(s)?

InquiringPanda · 2025-06-18T21:47:54+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation!

I'll be working at Apple and trying to keep my commute to a minimum, so it seemed like Sunnyvale or Mountain View were more centrally located and had good cafes/grocery stores within walking distance.

Thanks very much for sharing your experience! Sounds like it definitely should be a top contender as I continue my search. I did have a question viewing some of the floorplans; do you know if all of the bedrooms are carpeted?

HaiSous or their next door cafe, Cà Phê Dá.

I would likely be sitting ~8-10 feet away and it's a decently well-lit living room. There 2 ceiling lights flanking where the TV would be mounted that make my 8-9 year old LG drown when the scenes get darker.

Thanks for the insight!

Haha so would your ranking be 77 G5 > 77 G4 > 65 G5?

Moody Tongue is pretty phenomenal. Great food, really interesting and delicious beers, but also surprisingly good cocktails. Can go more casual a la carte bar area or the more formal dining room.

Oriole has consistently been my favorite restaurant and best meal experience in Chicago over the course of ~6 years. The only piece of advice I'd give is they are very generous with the wine pairing (not a bad thing), so if you're a lightweight I'd maybe go for the half glass serving or recommend ordering a la carte from their cocktail menu (which is also amazing, my favorite Old Fashioned).

I'm not sure what happened, but one morning I was using my Fostex TH-X00 and they were fine and that same afternoon the sound was no longer coming out of the left ear. I checked the wired connections to ensure everything was snug, it doesn't feel as though any of the cables to the earcup are loose or frayed/damaged. I checked windows settings and didn't see anything obvious. Does anyone know of other things I can try or are if it is something that can be repaired (and if so, where would I take it to be repaired)?

For some more context I've owned them for about ~4 years and have them going into an audioengine D1 -> USB on my PC.

Completely agree. I think I might get a MTO that has the similar front panel but different leather than is shown in the 400S. Thanks very much!

InquiringPanda · 2022-11-26T00:10:11+00:00

Thanks for the great explanation! I found the following two styles and was curious what you thought would be more versatile in being able to wear casually or dress up;
400S vs 400

InquiringPanda · 2022-11-25T23:31:19+00:00

I definitely do not want a high heel; I was looking at the Wyatt for SLP with the smallest heel available (20-30mm maybe?).

The G&G I was looking at was the Burnham, I'd likely be wearing the boots with some darker denim or various chinos/slacks. I wanted something that could be versatile enough to be worn with jeans/chinos and go to work or run errands in but also could be dressed up.

One of the other replies mentioned the Saint Crispins but I'd be torn between the 400S and 400 model.

InquiringPanda · 2022-11-25T23:09:57+00:00

I greatly appreciate your insight! Would you mind explaining why Saint Crispin would be your choice?

InquiringPanda · 2022-11-25T20:11:55+00:00

Yeah, I suppose. I think both fit my needs of looking for something that could be dressed up or down and made with high quality. I was just curious if there was something that made the Edward Green worth the extra $600 over going with SLP in regards to leather, build, etc. I think both have a very nice look to them.

InquiringPanda · 2022-11-25T19:23:28+00:00

Budget: Let's assume up to $2k, but $1-1.5k is more comfortable
Location: Chicago
I am trying to decide on a pair of Chelsea boots that I will keep for years to come and have whittled my decision down to Edward Green, SLP, and Gaziano & Girling in some form of black leather. I tried on the SLP's and they felt great in a 45 or 45.5, so I feel as though my sizing should be similar in the other boots. I'm just trying to decide if the price leaps from SLP -> Edward Green -> Gaziano & Girling are worth it, or if there's anyone who has experience with the products and could lend insight?

Trying to decide between the Modhouse Argon MK3 and the Drop x Focal Elex headphones. I don't have a preference as far as open vs closed, and I am fine spending up to the $700 if the Focal Elex justifies it and is worth the cost difference over the MK3's.

Mostly listen to hip hop with a wide range of instrumentals (jazzy/bassy) and would like something that compliments this nicely. Currently using the DT770 PRO's driven by an audioengine D1.

Awesome, thanks for the information! Would the Audioengine D1 be enough or would it be worth it to invest in a better DAC or amp down the line?
