    You're missing out! I was quite tentative at first but once I tried, not going back! It's like having tea AND hot chocolate together. Win=Win! 😂

    Seems like the Biscuit Dunking party is surging to an early lead 😄

    Haha I am sure it does and ofc they can be, but traditionally they go with wine, especially sweet type (like Vin Santo), at the end of a meal. I'd know, my dad is from the area where these type of biscuits come from, and I have watched him dunk them in his red wine since I was a toddler back...

    Italian biscotti (as they are intended in the UK, like Cantucci - because in Italy biscotti simply means biscuits) are meant to be dunked! Just in wine, not in tea...

    Yeah nope. My mother in law has tons of them stashed around the kitchen, but despite my terminal sweet tooth, I don't go near them..

    Yeah I hear that. I would be curious to see if they can be found in a shop somewhere, so as to have a play with them but not 100% sure myself. And yeah, me too. Too old and antisocial for multiplayer gaming. The only game I still play is very much solo haha

    Someone on Reddit suggested Asus Kithara. They are a gaming headset in collab between Hifiman and Asus, with a Rog (?) brand. The few reviews /opinions I have found seem pretty positive and they are said to be very close to the Arya but with smaller cups than the Ananda /Arya - and they are...

    Have to say the Focal do look quite classy and plush... How do they feel, comfort-wise?

    Old tech outlast new?

    It's "almost" as many components and consumer products are built to fail just outside of warranty 🤣

    Hahah yeah. Well I think the Ananda were originally marketed at something silly like £700... There's also a pair of HE1000 on the bay for £650/best offer. Might be too much for me atm tho, with upcoming "domestic" expenses and strife to save money towards a long dreamed about speakers...

    I have also been looking at the Beyerdynamic for a while. Just a bit concerned about many reports of them being very bright /sharp. But I guess, if I can't find them in a shop, there is always Amazon free returns....

    Oh no don't get me wrong, I prefer the oval shaped cups, but these are just TOO big. Did a bit of a side by side and they are easily twice as big as my Sony WH-1000xm4 (admittedly these are snug - probably also to maximise noise cancelling) and probably 1.5 as big as the Sennheiser HD650... And...
