Broughton Audio Super Thread

Angel Hernandez is retiring tomorrow
I honestly thought you were kidding.
This morning I find out it’s true.
There’s some rumblings that he didn’t go on his own volition.
Either way, I feel like celebrating.


Is it too early to head straight for the Irish Whiskey?
I mean, that’s where I’ll end up anyway, so why not just call a strike a strike and get on with it?

If I’m gonna land in the dirt, it’s still a strike… right?
 
Own the Apex and Omni, borrowed the Monocomp for a bit, and I'd say that's accurate.

I have all three and I’d agree.
Overall I’d say the Apex and Omni are closer together than the Omni and Monocomp.

In terms of colour, yes. But not in terms of excellence.

I find I have the most control and least color with the Apex,
The most color and least precise control with the Monocomp,
And the Omni sits in the middle on both counts.
Maybe the control part has more to do with the amount of time I’ve spent dialing in the Apex vs Omni… but I can really be precise with the Apex. Love how it feels. Have some slight regret about selling my second one.

Word is- he just landed a huge contract with Lenscrafters, so his retirement should be pretty comfy.

Hold still Angel while we apply the drops.

I was never a really big fan of purple most of my life but my opinion has changed drastically in the past week.
Sentinel in the loop of the WL fed by the SubSonic and fudge me if it isn’t rather fandidleyatastic.

the purple bass is no slouch either.

I really hope there’s a loop on any future potential SuperFilter.

Josh, please make it purple…

@Lowendtech I’ll take that dark bass to lighten the room too! Didn’t know you played 5’ers!!
Had to take the plunge again so I figured (as usual) just go big. I’ve had some really nice ones in the past but none of them stuck around long. Hopefully this time is different but if I decide not, then it’ll go pretty quick.
Last week was pretty intense on the bass front.
