or theyre just memes

*Only the finest magic for my ears then*

no they meatspin in your ears

they're on a pivot

you can see plenty of spinfit reviews on the internet

iems suck jsut get earbuds tbh

~~For home yes, but in the gym iems are a nogo imo~~

wtf

earbuds suck

a breeze will take them out of my ear

yeah same

idk how people get them to stay inside the ear

The hell did i write there

Yeah, you're right. I somehow thought you meant to just headphones.

earbuds never go out of my ears tbh

are you guys autists

I use some KZ ATE indeed

its just 0 isolation

and bus is like 100dB of noise

i like them in quietp laces tbh

but yea on the streeet (unless it's quiet)/transport ill take apair of iems

the power supply for my chink bmeme800 phantom power literally fucking melted

i knew it got hot, but jesus

thank christ i unplugged this shit during the night

<:pepewot:327934404234313739>

wtf is this quality

AC output?

its the AC power brick that plugs into the phantom power supply

im opening it up

call me BIG CLIVE

smells like burnt plastic :(

wow I'm so surprised

mine blew up too

for my old phantom power thing

Rather surprising

i think im going to try making a new power supply from a phone charger

5V/2A vs 18V/0.600 A

Hrmm

The phone adapter might create a lot of switching noise which might need some hefty filtering to clean out

Maybe a cheapo wall wart with an AC output?

A voltage multiplier is fairly straightforward to make, and they're nice in that they don't create super high frequency noise

i think that's the job of the interface and not the power supply

@Droidbot never tried the x1 series

@Windatica kek rip

w8

the fucking phantom power requires 18V AC

i dont have trannies laying around for that 😡

yeah, the one that came with mine was a brick

feelsbadman

im using the microphone without an interface but it sounds p awful

open it up and see what melted

good enough for discord

for sience

im trying

i don't think i can pry this open the way i had in mind

also i think i might have to buy a whole new interface all together

buy a used 2i2 or something

the used interfaces on ebay all look absolutely awful

i'm just trynna buy a CHEAP one, not drop $20 on an interface that looks like it was made when i was born

shoulda just got a second hand snowball 😡

$20 for an interface?

really all i need is a power supply

Geez, be thankful, you won't even get a used one for under 50 here

Euro even

awful

wait wtf

AC/DC adaptor

interface says AC18V in

which is it

DC

i don't see a full bridge rectifier in there

this board looks like it was part of a hobbiest kit

so much wasted space

and every part is silkscreened

Is there nothing on the backside? Else what spaqin said

nothing besides traces and joints

I think it's halfwave rectifying by the looks of it

it uses a barrel plug as input

lick the caps

omg

Hrmm

that diode may be just for safety

Might be a voltage doubler from the look of the diodes?

in case someone plugs in a musical instrument adapter

And TIP122 with the zener as a reference for a cheapo linreg maybe

Too tired to trace that out

why are these traces so BIG

THICC traces save lives

big voltage fam

ya

b-but my amps

you want
1) thick traces
2) clearance

it just looks like thick traces

clearance is not so

THICC traces for THICC amps

Prolly was just cheap to make with through-hole parts

with this much wasted space you would think the clearences would be at least 1mm
