Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
A friend of mine recently asked me to give advise on what headphones, currently on the market are worth looking at. I didn’t really know what to tell him at the time. I rhymed of brands that I trust, but didn’t know of a specific model to recommend.
He was looking for something for regular listening, but suitable for travel, so not too bulky. I came across these upon recommendation from another friend. I had a listen and was very impressed by the sound you hear from this small package.
With solid features like hands-free phone compatibility, noise-cancellation, and a huge frequency range (11hz - 30hz). Not to mention that they fold up and come with a nice little carrying case; great for travel.
AKG K480 - Model referred to in this post.
AKG K450 - The same great sound, without active noise-cancellation.
AKG K420 - If you’re still able to find a pair of these guys, they’re about the same as the new K480, but without all the great features (but much less cost).
I bought my ticket!

Hong Kong
I’ve been through the north of China, and now in the south. Last week I even got to see a glimpse of Burma! For a long time I’ve been waiting to see Hong Kong and now I’ve got the chance. I have to leave Mainland China every 60 days to avoid problems with my visa, so I thought this time I would take the opportunity to see what Hong Kong is about. My flight leaves in 3 hours. My bags are packed and I’m heading over to Wang’fu’jing for a haircut!
“Tying up the loose ends.”
The days just seem to be flying by. My last post was three days ago already. Last week, a friend suggested that I start video blogging. I’m an all in guy. That means if I do start that, it’s going to take up a lot of time. I might do it on occasion; I do like the idea. I just don’t think I could make it a regular thing. I’ll just keep some variation; some text, some graphics and a few videos here and there -that seems to be the best plan.
