(wireless)

then there's not much to break

and because they're in a fuckhuge case there's not much to lose either

True

@Droidbot u have seen the light

chifi sux

kz is great

you just need good source pairing <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

I liked mine. I used them for about 2 years.

@baba yeah speakers >>> headphones

reckon those iems would attract bees

Do any of y'all can recommend a good 84-87mm speaker for a car

just type car speaker in aliexpress

it will be better than u think

Have no experience with chink brands tho

about time to get some

<:alismirk:230784726615588865>

If I'm about to waste money to experiment I might as well just play it safe and buy overpriced shit here

>If I'm about to waste money to experiment I might as well just play it safe and buy overpriced shit here

That's not how it works

First you buy the chink, get chinked and *then* you get local overpriced shit

<:blobhyperthink:427568506905559040>

Sorry for skipping over few steps

is bm800 still the mic to go with?

or is there a new hot thing

There was the nw-3u in between

bm800+phantom power or neewer NW-3U

It's dead now though

but ive also seen used blue snowballs go for like $20-$30 and that might be a better deal depending on time and location

wym they're on amazon for $27

Snowballs are omni shit though

but how will i hear enemy footsteps in ~~csgo~~ ~~minecraft~~ fortnite if i don't have the same setup as the streamer

Did i fall for a shill scam for the t2’s?

Theyre being shipped now but im worried that all the praise is from a few shills

Yeah

Windatica is the biggest shill on headfi

snowball sux

get samson go

cheap

ez

Are trn v80s worth it at $24

Audiobudget is a shill but he rated them eargasm

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahXS4hlfWD0

nice hes gonna review ne the tribit

LFMAO why are there so many JBL shills

jbl shills are the kids that want to feel good on the internet

for hanging a bazooka from their neck

🚀

im a gaymen feg and i want a mic so my buddies stop complaining about my laptops built in mic, should i get the sony lapel or a sm920/bm800, would like something with less wires and im trying to stay under like $20-30

im leaning towards a lapel because i have headphones and could just clip the lapel on that cable but idk how good it would sound effectively under my chin/side of my head

<30$

Get a boya/Sony lapel

or samson go

same thing kinda

>

gayman laptop

<:thenk:329322130804047872>

hell yea

its not the best thing to game on but i move around quite a bit so its more useful than a desktop

is the amazon link for the boya the best bet? looks like it

crinicle: I have the ifi Nano BL which is useful for its direct and IEMatch outputs. But honestly, and I'm readying myself for controversy here, my favourite source for reference use is still straight out of the iPhone dongle. It has near zero output impedance, near zero noise floor, dead neutral in signature (so signature matching is a non-issue) and much less of a hassle to lug around. And this saying so even after having tried almost every DAP out there from the M0 to the SP1000, as well as exotics like the PCM-D1.

i just use my motherboard out

it does 32 bit!!!

no dsd though

Headset port of my Steinberg

Good enough for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sup

Can someone recomend me good quality headphones/earphones for csgo?

in 6 days it will be $20.99 with the AliExpress Brands Sale

Tnx

no

I don't use the headphone jack but I have one <:hahayes:330459104495665153>

just get a s9+

@Julian https://www.essential.com/audio

actauylly get that

mqa as well!!

I'm not crazy, right. Those HD668Bs have skyrocketed in price?

At least by like 30nzd

@Julian MQA is literal botnet

All songs are signed with a signing key and for them to unlock "hi resolution" parts of the song you need to pay for hardware that can "unfold" these parts (like the essential hd audio thing that snaps on the back)

🤢

and going from MQA FLAC > FLAC is effectively useless and you might as well just listen to 16bit music

because MQA is ~14bits when not unfolded

KZ BTFO and he thinks the Hybrid Pros are pretty good for the price

He's right

HybridProHD are great especially after the bass mod

They don't get enough attention considering their very nice sound

Damn he looks like my ex's dad

Wholesome middle aged dutch 😊

wholesome

```I have rose mojito and shozy BK and I need something bigger in stage...because my cousin got a mx760 diy from China and he is not telling model name to me. That sounded way better than my mojito plus comfortable. So after reading the review of NiceHCK graphene black metal model from slappypete, I think it is the niceHCK graphene.
```

see no name chi-fi is better than high end chi-fi

```I got the NiceHCK graphene 2017 black...

@slappypete review was right.

This thing is as good as shozy BK with less in face mids and extended treble.
```

chifi sux

im gonna get a pair of these

do it

i mean 20$ = 250$ earbud??

why he won’t tell you model name

<:thenk:329322130804047872>

🤢 trusting other people's opinions on chi-fi

LOL

they do look pretty cool tbh

🤔 the mold costs more than the iem

They literally look like middle eastern sweets 🤣

Turkish delight lookin ass

curious if this was entirely diy

it doesnt look hard but im autismo and definitely could not pull this off myself

also it looks like they either pulled out the 2pin connector or extended it

you would think someone who went through all this effort would take more than 1 pictures

wait they removed the housing entirely

Not sure how to do that mold without extensive effort.
Maybe 3d printing the form, but I'm not sure if you can polish resin to something like pic related.
Looks interesting for some bored holiday days though.

I’m thinking diy ciem maker who already had a mold for other projects

Not hard to make casts when you already have a mold

Oookay TRN V20's are horrible.

took me this long to realize that, the soundstage is cramped as fuck

there's such much sibilance what the actual fuck

u are just used to KZ godness

🤔

its okay tfz king is even better

could just buy t2 or gr07 but honestly its the KING

Friend got me T2, and I'm paying him back at the end of the month. They're godlike.

🤔 buying good chifi? someone ban this kid

the real nitro is dead

lmfao

I do like the ED16's though. Probably the only good shit KZ has ever made.

I'm officially done with that fucking company.

Friendship ended with KZ, now TIN is my best friend.

Don't know why I didn't listen to you at first

rarted

@nitrokojote have you considered kz as10

those can suck a cock

yeah dude its better than previous kz

just like the other 10 driver

and ed16

and zs6

and zs5

or wait

🤔;

tbh I've spent too much on this crap.

should have just bought se215s and been done W/ it

t2s are good tho

SE215's are too dark.

might buy T2's in upcoming sale and give my QT2 away

taping them can be done with regular tape right?

ye

can someone post a picture of how it looks after taping?

It looks like a piece of tape over a pinhole

👍

thanks <:thvnk:332928260004642827>

only use the finest acoustic masking tape

tfw no special tape at home

hope it's good enough

you can use any tape

different tape have different acoustical mighty morphing dynamicability

<:wholesomethonk:373550351082848267>

I thought KZ was dead for a long time now @nitrokojote

Not for normie that is
Also surprisingly you haven't damaged at all windyboy

wym

i no longer keep needles around ;)

I mean a cable lasts me usually 3 months but I am that faggot who stashes thy pocket along with a phone and wallet

don't do that

@nitrokojote i told u v20's suck from the start

lofi deaf nerd

chifi sux

yin

fug

I bought the 69

😩

yin is better.

I might, yins aren't that expensive anyway.

$remind

Hi chi-fiers
Anyone got a discount for the kz bluetooth cable?

kz bluetooth cable is bad

unironically bad

unless you're buying it for like $2

or listening to am radio with em

am radio omegalul

no but seriously the BT cable is horrible

don't buy it

Just, use the TRN cable

TRN?

It's quite on the expensive side

I've seen those kz cables with the two plastic thingies on the cable itself, are those new?

those are pretty bad too

Ohw ok

Btw

IDK if it's general knowledge, but please for the love of god D O N ' T (and i repeat D O N ' T) cover the little hole near ZS6's silicone tips, it permafucked one balanced armor and basically I had to seal the other IEM's BA with loctite as well

that's not a problem since nobody wants the zs6 anyways <:alismirk:230784726615588865> penetrate me with treble

>Using ZS6's

oh

god

I had to send mines to Goybear back another month

it's a good thing if the BA's a permafucked in those

I know, but it sounded hideous

Bellsing BA's lul

They sound so bad.

I'm seriously considering biting into the T2 meme (If I manage to sell mine)

I just got my T2's.

They're great, fucking buy them.

Don't waste shit with KZ

I used to have KZ ZS6's. Fucking hated those.

One quick question tho

do they wear like around the ear or like regular earbuds?

both

do what you want

<:iosthink:328535776843268105>

I wore them around the ear when I owned them, but I tried straight down like regular earbuds and they wear fine

You can use them both ways, I prefer around the ear.

Lemme see if I can turn my kz to a friend

Surprise of the day: Nokia 7 Plus box earbuds are singleDD and cheap as fuck but they actually don't suck and wear flat, meaning you can use them in bed

New bed earbuds bois

Clarity is poor on the high end, so they suffer in a couple songs. But mid and low is clear as hell

Reminds me of a pair of Samsung earphones I used to use.

They fit real nicely in my ears, but they basically fit flat.
