    Ah, another thing, I would think a barrier at 2475 would maybe be almost front running bigger guys sitting on 2500/25 on barriers using there defense to help, but if it was massive I guess they had some cash. Plus they were talking some ACB BS at 65/70... can never know if thats true though. I have absolutely no legit connects anywhere besides what I get on this retail feed so I always have to try and use my head a bit.

  3. I have an Apogee Duet and an (Apogee killer) RME Babyface (actually one blue, one silver).

    babyface is so badass and upgradable so i have to go that route and the RME stuff is so solid from what i hear. Gotta hand it to Apogee though at first with the duet, such a sick device at the price. No converters even came close at that price range.

    thats crazy you have them both... good stuff man. I am a poor bastard with some Behringer gear right now lol.

  5. Thanks, I don't have a lot of conviction in this trade. I just do what my systems says do.

  6. I use the RME for headphone listening and XLR to some Genelecs (w/sub). The converters on the RME are insane, better than my Benchmark. I usually listen thru my Denon D7000 or Ultrasone Signature Pro. Senn IE80 and HD25 when flying.

    Totalmix is so much better than Apogee that I don't know where to start. Plus, the EQ in the totalmix is phenomenal. I can't listen to FLAC w/o my totalmix EQ settings.

    I do a bit of EDM production, but just as a hobbyist. Spend some time on gearslutz.

    I hear ya, I gotta say though if my system told me to go in 50% margin I might tell it to go F itself.

    LOL damn atticus... Ultrasones too. You have some nice stuff.

    I spent too much time drooling at gearslutz, but I belong in the low-end theoy on my budget. I had a good feeling you had to spend some time there too with that gear doing research they have some crazy dudes over there.

    I got a pair of ATH-M50's for listening/tracking/mixing some stuff for now, on the cheap not bad at all, I dont really have any good high end gear.
