@HEKTIK the what

pixel 2 usb C headphone dongle

https://store.google.com/product/usb_c_headphone_adapter

im not sure if that works with normal usb devices though

it should, but it specifically calls for a device with usb-c

i dont see why it wouldnt

USB C is cross compatible with other USB connectors is it not?

dunno

i have a motherboard next to me with a usbc port

we live in the motherfuckin future

its a usb c connector, but you could convert it to micro usb or type a in theory right?

also doesn't this mean that every usb-c to 3.5mm has a dac on it

i await the chink adaptor shootout

```My understanding is all device currently out that uses USB C still sends an analog signal because it is still handled by an internal DAC. The Pixel 2 doesn't use an Internal DAC to push the signal and the adapter has a DAC inside of it to convert the signal.```

how awful

nah some are designed just as passthrough

i think only the pixel 2, some motorola thing, and the apple devices actually have a DAC inside

```One of the reviews I've read today (can't remember which) stated that the HTC adapter does work with the Pixel 2. That's a positive sign with regards to standards, which is what's needed if we're to have more options. ```

very interdasting

will keep in mind before i kms over the note 4x dac

its seriously beyond me how they fucked it up this badly

im actually getting a pixel 2 dongle sometime soon

gonna try adapting to micro usb

that said, my rn4x's otg is fucked for some reason

stock? mine is fine

so im gonna try reflashing to a diff rom

yuh stock

🤢 miui
<:alismirk:230784726615588865> pajeetrom, with "you tell me" as known issues

bluetooth also doesnt work

wot

ya ur shit is fuck

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

bluetooth doesnt work properly in the dropdown menu for lineageos but my old phone had that issue as well

it'll say its on when it isnt

i was seriously considering a pmp but im not sure if i want to give myself terminal autism

daps suck unless youre willing to spend a lot

phone + dongle is way better experience

thats what i thought as well

and plus dongles are cheaper

and phones are easier to navigate

unless youre gonna buy some $250+ DAP dont bother

b-but my cnc knurled knob and 6 hour battery life

```BTW. They RMA'd the phone, when I told them about the dongle heating up. ```

lol

ive had enough of the memes im buying a pair of sennheisers and im out of the china game

cheap sennheisers suck too

brainshaker test objectively correct

just drop some cash on some hd 6xxs and be done smfh

i have akg 271 already idk why i bother with chinkshit

lols

chinksumerism

like

I haven't bought a pair of chink shit IEMs in the past few months

I've bought Superlux HD668Bs which sound absolutely great

Xiaomeme Hybrid Pros with the Blutack mod sound great and look great with decent sound isolation so I'm g for now

imma go home and fire up these little bad boys

how do the superlux 668 compare to other stuff u have?

Don't really have much audio gear besides IEMs

But they surpass my SteelSeries Arctis 7s on sound pretty easy

They're open and airy and spacious and it's great

fairynuff

Looks nice. I have some big Dali Concept standing speakers, take a bit of room but nice sound

nice choice

Tfw still running some desktop 2.1 logitech set from 10+ years ago <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

stunning 😃

@HEKTIK Which KZ goes nicely with their silver cables?

wdym

@HEKTIK got a pair of their cables through Gearbest's Lucky Bags

Is this worth it?

looks like a fun project

i doubt quality will be any good though

Reviews said quality was decent. I just figured it was something to do

Wow

These tz kings sound really good

Not sure 80$ worth tho

Or 100 at regular price

Uncomfortable as fuck as well

I prefer my unicorn earphones <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

I have the fake shure se215

They are amazing

from?
