ah

i don't have room for a Serious PRess, just kinda a POS "big ole bolts and a long handled wrench" "press"

im interested in it because it'd be a really cheap way to mass make some cheap ass headphone cups with some complicated designs

and i gave that away some years ago since it's kinda pointless

way cheaper and more time effective than cncing wood at least

i dunno, aluminum can be kind of a bitch to work with acoustically

wood is much nicer

yeah no i know

id have to do a fuck ton of rearwave damping

ive fucked with aluminum housings before

if anything you could try pressed wood

eh

would be prone to cracking would it not

just wood-fiber-slurry+glue, mold tool, press

it can be pretty strong

wouldnt look that great tho

it's literally what most speaker cabinets are made of, just in sheets not fancy designs like you could potentially do

id rather just do resin cups with shit embedded in em at that point

save wood for muh premium designs

take up whittling

hand carve earcups

god no

easier to just do on a lathe

sell audiophools $5000/pr grado cups

hand carved

im not some old ass japanese wood dweller

tho i probably will do grado cups at some point for luls

>not hand carving a relief of the nude atlantean virgin who hand-wound the oxygen free silver cables

old white cunts eat that shit up

wew

i do wanna do some float style headphones tho

i kinda love the floats

my planar drivers would probably do well

they're really cute in that sort of ugly way, yknow?

k1000 is nutty

sennheiser surrounder

oh god

i want one so bad

for pure shitpost value

does it even sound decent lmao

the new mysphere looks like some jewish brainwashing tool or some shit

https://cdn.head-fi.org/a/84153.jpg

bose released some neck thing that apparently isnt bad

adjusts for hrtf too

tbh some actual really well-engineered neck/shoulderphones would probably be the best shit ever for vr

wew https://audio-head.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/MySphere-2954-1024x714.jpg

eh the headset would probably fuck with shit acoustically

and when you turn your head it'd be fuckt unless it somehow tracked that in relation

bah, that's why we bring back sound cards to do some Real Serious DSP

would need good implimentation but otherwise yea

fuck a lower noise floor or higher sample rate, lemme throw some gflops at 3d audio processing

it's kinda a thing we have to do to make vr _really_ good anyway, really lifelike directional sound isn't computationally cheap

3d audio processing is nuts when done right

and the video card is gonna be busy drawing video

i dont get why vidya fucked it up

old games did it really well

oh i know why

literally creative labs fault

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A3D

patent trolling killed the good directional sound tech

gay

and creative has been refusing to let anyone else do serious work similar to it

this shit is nuts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3eOuqAmLAA

imagine how much better all the big dickswinging AAA HIGH GRAFIX games would be if this hadn't been killed

yknow when you hear really good binaural recordings you kinda tense up when they record like a whisper in your ear or grass shuffling past the mic, or something coming closer, that raw instinct flinch of unexpected sound because it's so realistic?

imagine if flavor of the year survival horror game had that

yeah that'd be nutty

fuck creative labs forever tbh

oh yea you seen the minidsp EARS?

https://www.minidsp.com/products/acoustic-measurement/ears-headphone-jig

o wow thats cheap

yeah im grabbing one

bed ttho

shoulda been bed like an hour ago lol

lol

night

ebay probably

inb4 piezo

@fireglow I actually have a pair of thoose speakers, they're called ТОН-2А

They're also disassemblable

@fireglow @efaxdi cool as fugg

turns out i have a pair of pioneers s j130

what do

oh shit my generic hm5 pads came in

yep, its PLEATHER

but is it bad pleather 🤔

Show me where the pleather touched you son

I read the is and the it around the wrong way

Dyslexic?

wtf

i dont recall ordering angled pads

oh i guess they didnt specify to begin with

ree never use an ER4 without a high impedance cable

i just noticed that the DAC-X6 has optical in so I can finally connect my ps3 and get fucking audio in the headphones

Patent trolling is cancer. RIP A3D. I know Valve was working on some solution to audio though for their VR work

WHERE TF IS THE FAMILY NEXT DOOR

AMAZUN DELIVERED THE PMP TO THEM BECAUSE I WASN'T HOME AND THEY STILL AREN'T COMING HOME AND IT'S 20:20 HERE

Chink gods, pray for me
