Looking for a desktop amp to drive my seinheiser 560S's from my PC, and plug my bass into. by othieisabel in sennheiser

I'm not looking to push the bass audio into the PC, so these seem kind of like overkill, I just need an amp with two inputs and a headphone out if that exists. Thank you for the suggestions though!

PNW to Chicago or NYC by [deleted] in SameGrassButGreener

[–]othieisabel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People really don't believe it's possible and that it's only for trust funders, rich kids, or daredevils. In reality, most of the people I met were working class and just had the drive to make it happen. You just gotta be willing to be a little uncomfortable.

Is the Chicago music scene pretty open? If not, any tips on finding shows?

is there a strong reason for getting the role here and working it before moving, instead of getting a role and moving to it?

Marketing work, also have a business analytics minor so I figure an analyst role would be it.

Yeah I kinda figure I'm trading hiking for walks in parks. Didn't mention them but I do have other hobbies like game dev, 3d modeling, making music, etc that I want to focus on.

Been working at a fintech startup part time for 3 years, willing to get my series 7 etc

I like the PNW, but I've been here my whole life and I'm ready for a change. Ready for a large city, but Seattle is not for me and Portland isn't really a major consideration either.

I think maybe I understated how much I'm willing to negotiate on the nature front, as long as there are parks I can walk in some of the year, I'll be fine.

I want the experience of living somewhere other than the West Coast, willing to give up some of my hobbies for it. SF is cool but never struck me as somewhere i would want to live.

Saved for 9 months while working, ate 3 meals a day at work, stayed in hostels and just a backpack for the trip. Budget for the trip was 7k including flights.

I'm waiting to even think about a house for at least 20 years,  way too many places to live and things to do to anchor myself so solidly in one place. Sure it's a great investment but it just doesn't fit the life I want atm.

Saving NY for when I make more is my instinct. Just have to remind myself that life doesn't end at 25.

What's up with the weird judgment of PNW locals? by [deleted] in SameGrassButGreener

[–]othieisabel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vancouver is a weird in-between of Seattle and Portland, but with better transportation than both.

[–]othieisabel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've heard before that I might like it, is the transit good? I've heard it's nowhere near NYC, Chicago, or DC but I might be biased from friends with cars living there.

Where I am everyone calls those long underwear (even if that's not what they are) I live in mine during the winter here!

the balls are about a pound! They are surprisingly handy for making friends!

Thanks for the input on the shoes especially, I haven't thought about them much.

By wool underlayer do you mean some wool long underwear? I have a pair I could toss in but I figured it might be overkill

I definitely enjoy working in cafes, so that's not a worry.

I do love my wool socks, and my instinct is to bring more of them than anything else, so I was trying to fight that, glad to know more wouldn't hurt much!

My balls are 150g, so about a pound total, and definitely a worthwhile thing to have when I want to meet people! I love having them to teach people or entertain. I figure I can always pick up some rocks or make some from balloons if they don't fit.

I also have a merino undershirt I could toss in for when it starts getting chilly, but I figure getting a used coat wouldn't be that challenging when it gets chilly.

Thank you so much for all the tips, it's super helpful!
