Interesting tidbit: Chiang Kai-shek's body is still not burried. He is put in a coffin and the coffin raised above the ground, because of his wish that he must be burried in mainland China after the KMT retake China.

So for 48 years, he is still unburried.

Just recently, a radical group of Taiwan independence activists sued the government for violating the Mortuary Service Administration Act for letting this happen and wasting money maintaining the facility that has been "temporarily" holding Chiang's coffin for 48 years. :3

I see Hart cables. Loved them at first on my Sundara but had to swap them out because the thingy where the left and right cables meet is placed too low down, and it would catch on the edge of my desk when I lean forward to prop myself back up after slouching in my chair. Then it would rip one or both sides of the cable off from the Sundara.

After 4-5 times I couldn't stand it anymore. But it attests to how well built those things are. If I ever set up a dedicated listening couch I'm going back to those cables.


Both of my Sundara pads started peeling off this month at the underside and the left pad seam also opened up, showing the green foam inside. Bought it in Jan 2021 so the pads lasted 2 years. Although I swap out my headphones every couple of months, so I'd estimate actual use at around 1 year or so. It seems like 1-1.5 years is how long these pads generally last before they start tearing and peeling.

Currently using the Dekoni Elite Sheepskin for HiFiMan HE Series, makes the sound quite a bit warmer (hopefully I'm using the right terminology), which is fine really since I tend to reach for the TrueBass button on my ZEN DAC when I'm on my Sundara. I get no urge to go for the bass boost with these Dekoni pads.
