fuck

its fine

i bought a cheap $3 cable and use that currently for iems on my computer, and a bt cable for t2

When wind breaks the mmcx connectors on his iems because he was too cheap to buy more than 1 $3 mmcx cable

Mmcx isn’t designed for constant detachment and reattachment <:pepestressed:327933525124841482>

I'm looking for 2 earphones. Bluetooth based for use in the gym and normal wired ones. I saw the KZ ATES can be swapped with a Bluetooth cord and a wired one. Will the MMCX connectors hold if I keep swapping between the two

ATE doesnt have a removable cable

and swapping mmcx cables a lot is not recommended

Oh that's sad. Any wireless alternative that have decent sweat resistance?

Buy a pair of some other kzs with a 2 pin and get a kz Bluetooth cable, and then get a separate pair of good earphones for normal use @apolea

Kz zs3 is cheap and has 2 pin

Pin cables look like that might fall out, why not normal mmcx?

>buy kz
How about no?

^

Don't buy kz

@Millwood mmcx is dogshit

2 pin will always be superior

How?

Mmcx holds fucking well, what more do you need?

it breaks stupidly easy

which is terrible for what he wants to do with it

the whole mmcx connector has to flex for it to click in and out

Really? It seems sturdier than pin just looking at it

versus 2 pin which is just 2 springed contacts clamping down on a pin

Hmm

2 pin is recessed with a plastic body so you cant really munt it

unless you bend it when its out of the socket

Well, that shouldn't happen unless you're retarded

Damn

Should've bought v80s

mmcx is generally fine if you dont unplug it like ever

but otherwise its just a shithouse connector

i really wish we had a good screw in standard for iems

you get the best of both worlds

How long will it last plugging it in and out?
15 times?

no ability for the pins to come loose, and no flexing of the entire connector

if only smc was smaller

@AstroJannah ive had some die from less

<:pepestressed:327933525124841482>

mmcx is just a really dumb connector for iems

it was designed for network antennas which needed to be stiff and tight fitting, but be able to rotate

not a constantly moving object

What do you use currently as a daily driver?

V80 also looks like it'd fit better, T2s over ear make the cable lean to the side at the highest point before going behind the ear

2 pin is straight up superior

i dont use iems daily atm

but i have my er4s for when i do

Just audio in regular

modded dt250, modded hd430, and my own custom headphones

+ a geekout 1000 and an amb beta22

Yeah you showed them a while back
Quite nice

i dont think ill ever find a headphone with better midrange than the 430 lol

Is it worth getting the dt880/990?
Rtings shills it alongside some other brands

990 sucks

880 is good if you can handle the treble

Ouch

it competes with the other midfi open backs pretty well

eg the k612/712, and the 600/650

best dynamics, worst fr

Jannah's search adventure for a proper headphone continue ...

step 1 stop buying chifi junk

step 2 save for a hd800

Technically yes but I am sore loser who breaks stuff during commute

buy a few she3700's

Most of my bought products don't last long during biking

they stomp most chifi and are like $10

only €10 <:thvnk:332928260004642827>

This is your recommendation for the best pair under €10/$10?

without going to obscure shit that you cant find anymore, or having to mod stuff, yea

theyre a nice v-shape with good FR

That or lg quad beat 3

qb3 is also fantastic

@AstroJannah kz my friend

best treble ive seen of basically any iem under $300

its really bassy and the fit is weird though

Thank you HEK

for reference

compared to a generic chifi standin like the v20

which is junk imo

Should I care about that slight lack of sub bass?

For the Philips

No

Just get vidos tbh

I actually prefer buying products with a Dutch team behind it <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

there is no lack of subbass on the she3700

its actually got fairly decent extension

Nice

it only starts to roll at 30, which is normal for my coupler and measurements

Lg quad for €13.44 on frugoo

the only one that doesnt have that in my db is this junk lol

Massdrop is only for Americans right?

nah im in australia

it depends on the drop as to where they ship

I think they don't ship to NL

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

youre not missing out on anything really

its all pretty much junk

Real or phony?

real

quadbeats are cheap

i paid like 6 bux for mine

Lol I could get the Philips for €2.50 if I am not too late claiming a coupon at the Mediamarkt

@HEKTIK are the bolts that bad

jeez

also what is hd430

bolts are rash

hd430 is a vintage sennheiser

absolute perfect midrange

no bass and high treble tho lol

>trn bt cable arrived in country

😎 <:boomer:480046032546168863>

i just listen to speakers mostly

Anyone tried the headroom ms20 yet?

I am pretty happy with the ms16

is bass for zoomers and treble for boomers?

I like my bass ok?

<:boomer:480046032546168863> 💨

😤

😩 👌

if your bass aint at max what are you doing

*siippp*

<:boomer:480046032546168863> 😎

```don't regret doing them though, as my idea for life is pretty simple-Do good and good things happens~so I had to give them a try, and the result were just O.K. Now that i look at it, I don't think I am helping most of us by doing, Pro-Stuff for super fair, I should do "almost pro-stuff" like the Monk plus for dirt, as most of us don't really have the exp and knowledge to "get" them.

Instead , I will do a monk brand~and make no-brainer deals like the coming VE Odyssey.

Honestly speaking, I hated the fact that a lot of ppl can't see how good the monk plus really is for its low-low 5USD price tag, but my recent exp (which I will talk about in another post later) has made me understand that only a handful can see past Price-Tags, I even can't with areas that I don't fully understand, and I always think that I am one of the smart ones~so I finally made peace with it and decide to just "fuck it" and do what I wanna do, so if they can't appreciate me as much as I know I deserve, that is their loss, no mine. Those who always judge the book~ well, I don't wanna say anything mean here, but few can afford to keep their brain mostly on idle these days, lol.

So the name Odyssey symbolize a journey that I had , and a Journey your monk will need to be "full". And it is also the name for the first video game console from 1972, which I think is very fitting. ```

so he's quitting

good

he barely speaks English christ

this is on his usbc-3.5mm dongle product page

send

I want to cringe

>high oi

yeah ok back to the fuckin trashcan you go lee

um its meant for MONK

and ba

according to him

``` also before I go to bed today, like-always , VE is fucking honest about everything.

the balanced editions of the odyssey is the same as the single ended one, but with 6braided shining wire.

meaning it is not true-balanced~```

🤔

???

balanced

not true balanced

just balanced

so, its a scam

how does wild lee do it??

being fucking honest about everything

wait what

ve

:??

im so fucking confused

what an emotional roller coaster

Duck tape usb cable to headphone connector=balanced dac

would buy again

sp he

so he's not quitting

he's just trying to hype up his iem

idk

https://youtu.be/3a9X7frKsVo

Eww

anyone getting the 10 buck hifiman iems

update on the hd fix. the company is using wires that’re coated with insulated substance. so i think i have remove those wires and solder directly to the speaker connections

yeah its cancer enamel wire

i fixed my old hd2010s by replacing the enamel wire entirely

i didn't have the patience or the brain power required to tin a hair of copper that was under the enamel cancer

https://twitter.com/tttaudio/status/1036384348419710976

so new driver

https://twitter.com/tttaudio/status/1036384350206480384

better cable?

@Windatica cancer how

you have to scrape off the coating and sometimes the tinnable cable is literally hair-thin and hard to handle

also that cable looks exactly the same

I don't mind the cable on the t2

also

@tttaudio

🤔

@Windatica u can burn enamel off

yes i know

Lads, my roomate got a soundbar. Should I do headset or sound system for gaming?

<:wholesomethonk:373550351082848267>

get regular stereo headphones "gayming headsets" are a scam

Not gaming headset, but what about home theater system vs headphones

get headphones if you're playing online games and system if just for casual immersive shit

proper speakers will annihilate headphones in a decent room

^ also depends on the room

I'd always go for headphones

room is the biggest factor basically

unless you do near field, but that also has issues

**for gayming**

why not get both? <:wholesomethonk:373550351082848267>

i mean, if you can do speakers, and dont have a bathroom as a room speakers will be the easy choice

headphones kinda suck in general

I live in japan, my room is small as shit

My neighbors will be able to hear everything

fuck that then

get headphones

Dear, buy kz

I live in essentially a matchbox so I keep to IEMs and headphones but speakers are bretty cool

Speakers are comfy

But they always tell yu to look for certain used speakers or buy some that are like 200€ for a pair

newsflash

cheap shit sux

idk I like my edifier box

Okay guys

I'm looking for a new pair in-ears

Which ones should I buy that has a good bass, sub-bass and a big audio stage

im looking for the same thing

@ChairmanKaga http://noaudiophile.com/IK_Multimedia_iLoudMM/ just get these :^)

50hz flat out of a tiny speaker

@Deleted User tin t2 pro

Isn't v80 better for bass centered iem?

@bentech#6969 Cheapest deal?

not out yet

or just get tin t2 lol

you missed a sale so it'll prob be 50$ now

@ChairmanKaga time to blast ふしぎプルプルプルリンリン on full volume with speakers until your NEET neighbour comes knocking

being an "audiophile" is truly a cruel and autistic fate

@bentech Well what is the best tin t2 seller/deal

whatever is the cdheapest lol

So there is no best seller?

Alright, thanks.

What the fuck is the difference between these and the other ones?

Because this is 4 dollars cheaper

HIFI DJ

Isn't wooeasy still doing the audiojew discount?

Just get from them

Millwood, tell me what the difference is.

Can you see any difference?

Just sellers competing, I think

Get from wooeasy to make it cheaper

http://s.aliexpress.com/r2mQJZ7n

This one

Put "audiobudget" in message to seller and cancel out of payment

They should adjust the price and message you, then you can pay

Unless they stopped the promotion

audiobudget?

@Millwood How much do you save?

15

$

No way, that's a fucking steal

What do you mean by cancel out of payment, though

i mean

-15$

not like

its 15$

I know.

Still a fucking steal.
