    LOL!!!! YES! An absolute must for mixing....just don't watch TV or listen to your favorite CD's thru them! (though technically, the Avantones replaced the true horrortones, the Auratones)

    Yeah, I have a pair in black, the actives, somewhere. Sure, I know they're not the originals. ;)

  4. Yes, Electronic Dance Music


    Very interesting! I have known several musicians that are into the financial markets. There was a guy I met on this board named Randy Grimm who makes all kinds of unusual, some may say horrific noise music.

    Others were into more traditional stuff, including a heavy metal bass player i met via the markets. Forget his name but he played with several popular bands. surf

    Now that's amazing stuff! And one things for sure, he knows strict discipline via music. Why not apply that towards something else most people can't do, or simply dabble in? Thanks for the post

    Fenders: Roadhouse strat, tele, both American made. Ibanez: Nylon string (China), solid body artist and semi-hollow body artist (Japan), SR505 bass (Korea), Gibson SG 65 re-issue (America). Custom 22 PRS (America). I haven't purchased any new guitars in over 15 years. I'm looking at maybe a new bass with more tonal control soon.

    Haven't played ESP, but I'm familiar with the name.

    Now that I've derailed us with watches, I'll step aside at this point. Wjk just took the top of my head off. Lol! Good stuff! Will read more.

    Damn!! I imagine that Gibson has a nice warm tone. Would LOVE to hear what it sounds like. And since I only dabbled in being serious about music, sold my ESP Eclipse with EMG's, and Mesa Boogie head. Wish I had disciplined myself to have stayed with it. Anyhow, the above is so far over my head, I'd probably do best to read. Good stuff though! You should post up some clips of this art in action. I'm eaten up with music!

    I had a pair of Aura's given to me, but they didn't work. The Avantones are great, though. Mike Senior thinks they improved upon the Aura's. If your mix sounds good in one of them or an Auratone in mono, it will sound good in any system.

    Well, do any of your watches play music? :)
