I was of course referring to the choice of headphones. But I left that part intentionally ambiguous.

Odd, it seems to be considered an overpriced piece of sheet by the cognoscenti.

But it looks good, and check out the profit margin.

Apple bought them for the streaming service, not the head phones.
I am extremely happy with the Klipsch pair I bought a few years ago. For the money they are amazing. They don't shape the sound, they reproduce very accurately. And they are super comfortable and block outside noises very well.

I had/have a pair of those but I can't seem to get them to fit my ear canals well enough to block out noise and reproduce anything resembling base tones. I have had a couple of pair, and am currently using the, Shure E2C (their low end/consumer in-ear monitors). The Shure's do a great job of blocking out ambient noise (read subway and plane), good sound quality and best of all have a two-year warranty that covers everything.

I agree that fit is terribly important. With a bad fit you won't, as you say, get the bass and you also will get lots of surrounding noise.
But, one of the things that I love about this pair is that they have flat frequency response. The Bose products will pump up the bass, I'd rather have the music be natural. (Cue the parallels to wine....)

That horrid Asylum board was a way-station Andrew found for us while I was building the Wine therapy site to house us after Joe got kicked off of Garr's board. Disorder is, of course, just Wine therapy in a new home. And Wt was just a board that caught the subset of WLDG users who landed there after the web supplanted usenet and the big dial-up boards. At WLDG, eventually Robin Garr shook loose the original Wt and WD core users to protect his mostly imagined army of neophytes from the depravity that sometimes afflicted his smartest participants.
And that depravity demanded a treatment I already knew well, long before any web loony bins.
Anyway, no nostalgia for those bastards. Somehow they hatched the idea that I disrupted and stole their community, because they had no idea who we were, where we came from, and they did not know why we left - nor they did not care to know. Instead, they insisted on repeatedly attacking the Wt site in its early days.
These guys can go burn in hell, along with flying monkeys, rogue G-men, and other sociopaths who made running Wt such an exercise in aggravation more often than anyone should expect.
Those in need audio web addresses, beyond our present all-purpose cave, might ask Yaniger, chip-genius Scott Wurcer, or some of our other DIY-audio geeks for better sites than anything those Asylum creeps might maintain.
Meantime, our community lives on.

Not sure, but on past occasions when they've updated the line the only significant difference I noticed was to the earpiece foam.

Can any of the stereo buffs here recommend a good FM antenna? Is dipole the way to go?
Do you need an omnidirectional antenna? If not, a folded dipole antenna (which you can make easily enough -- I recall an article to that effect in Stereo Review ages ago) is the way to go. This article looks close to what I recall.

We are in the mountains, some of which are in the way, and the barn I want music in is concrete block with a metal roof. No tuner yet, plan to pick one up via yard sales this summer.
I get passable reception for some stations via our current boom box, just wondering what the best option is for an antenna that doesn't need to be readjusted for each station.
