And the grand finale...(keep your eyes shut the whole time!)

Haircut

 

[Rubycon]

I did one of those with an electric drill boring through an oak plank with a mic on each side.

When listening through 'phones, it sounded like the bit was splitting the skull. :shocked:

 

[Aharami]

i love these. have heard the haircut one before. best one

Binaural recordings? They really do freak you out sometimes. I remember trying a binaural with a pair of headphones with perfect 3-D positioning. Worst. Experience. Evar! Edit: Aww it doesn't work with my SR-60's

 

[DainBramaged]

No matter how many times i listen to it, the very end of the hair cut freaks me out. Especially when he laughs.

Wish there was a site that had a lot more example. They tend to put me to sleep pretty quickly.

 

[Kaido]

Not as clean as far as background noise goes, but if you have good cans it sounds like you're there...

Unbelievable. Listened to the haircut on my IEM's, and it really sounded like I was there. Damn, I forgot how cool binaural recordings are.

 

[Safeway]

Nod, they sounded amazing using my Shure E5c canalphones.

 

[JRich]

Sounds good with my V6's.

 

[imported_LoKe]

I need to pick up some quality headphones.

Fireworks

The Matchbox gets a particularly good 3-D effect with my Sennheiser HD280 headphones.

Haircut is an old classic.

 

[eLiu]

Wow that was great on my Senn HD280s. Please post more!

 

[AznAnarchy99]

LOL at the horrible attempt at the accent.

 

[Rubycon]

How about some sounds of nature?

Some geeses

I have no idea what is going on here

Very relaxing

 

[Rubycon]

Walking around here.

 

[loup garou]

What, no Grumpy Snail?

 

[orakle]

this is awesome.. it's like you're there.

 

[Rubycon]

More!

More water fun

bells bells bells!

Careful with that one! It can be a CRUSHER if played too loud. It's a good tweet/xover/DAC/amp(bias) checker if you know what you're listening for.

Every time I see this term I think "Holophoner"

 

[Kirby]

Wow, that sounds amazing.

I :heart: my HD580s.

 

[upsciLLion]

I really didn't like the dude with the matchbox touching my bottom. :|

My Stax 3030s can beat up your HD580s any day.

While I'm here I should also request you stop calling it holophonics. Call it binaural, or HRTF when applicable.
