See what Brady can do with the Cajon

February 13, 2014 - -

Brady, an 11 yr old blind special boy plays the slap-top cajon.
I would say... he really has a talent.

Note: "11 yr old blind special boy" is taken off the description of the youtuber's other posts.

Earphones

February 12, 2014 - -

I have 3 pairs of inner ear earphones for daily use.

A pair of Philips Model Unknown but the exterior is similar to the picture below. (Bought in 2011 or earlier)

A pair of Raxconn RX-108BK. Bought with from a deals website (Bought December 2011)


A pair of Audio Technica ATH-CK323M. Thinking that my Raxconn has spoilt. (Bought Feburary 2014)

Guess who won?

The Raxconn RX-108BK that i bought on a deal on December 2011. The cheapest, the longest lasting and the best.

Why? To make it simple, the sound - base and acoustic is full and solid. No "hollow" or "outer space" effect. Looks like the cheap and "not well known brand" earphones may not be lousy.
