Episode 024 - A new cable believer

May 19, 2015 ohm

Head-Fi admin, Steven Segall disciple, and deadpan YouTube audiophile gear reviewer, Amos Barnett, returns to co-host OHM AIR post-hoc Fujiya Avic's latest headphone show. We talk Linum cables, the demise of lightning/thunderbolt, sucky interfaces, a modern iron maiden, garrotting with Aurisonics's cables, and a custom earphone I reckon is destined to become the gold standard for trance fans.

Episode 019 - Matthew Osborne, aka Mr. Leica

April 6, 2015 ohm

In his first visit to OHM AIR, photographer and photo instructor Matthew Osborne gives the shoutout to bellows and large format photography, Leica, Leica owners, Leica weddings, rangefinders, and more. I have followed Matthew's flickr stream for yonks. He's an addict that uploads brilliant images daily. His weddings style is unique, engaging subjects as pieces of art rather than set-piece snapshots.
