Ne-eewer something, 700, 800?

bm-800, sometimes rebranded as nw-800 or something of the like

should probably buy the improved, active version

my dad needs some sturdy heaphones with a decent mic (mostly for skype calls), anyone got any reccomendations (non chifi preferred)

logitech G533 (or h800 ) ? or whatever alternative hyperx has ? air ?

normaly id throw "plantronics CS520"

but if its only for random skype calls

price is overkill

logitech g533 is also pretty overkill for skype calls <:ninjaturt:499294145093959680>

yes it is

but its the "sturdy" option

:P

isnt there anything in the ~50 euro range?

and ofc added 7.1 audio wont hurt your daddy if he likes movies/music/weird surround porn

it seems like there are no good comfortable headsets that wont break in 2 weeks other than gaming ones

i mean H800 is in that range

@Tervy I think he only puts them on for skype calls

and they will probably stay in the office

so wires are option

got it

think so

also wtf the h800 is like 90+ euros here

mmmm plantronics blackwire 3210 if your dad needs to hear his background too

(sorry i defaulted to americun prices so~

all good such is life of a filthy euro with inflated vat prices

MS livechat headsets are cheap as balls and can survive a nuclear explosion

cerakoted $1 call center headset

@Julian Buy STAX best quality <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

Anyone have experience with Meze headphones?

Just got a pair of 99 Classics

Until now my KZ ZS5s were the best audio experience I've had

Complains about audio vibrations and falls for snake oil audio memes, grabs dusty vinyl record by the grooves 👍

what happened to revonext qt-2 recommendations btw? did people realize it was shit or did something better come out? zs7?

I can vouch for the TRN IM 1 pro

Great iem for the price

The sibilance issues were solved

wow they lookin good, didn't even know about this

too bad I ordered the V80 a few days ago

v80 get a lot of attention but i see a lot of negative reviews for it

@miker too expensive vs T2 and shittier highs

only audiobudget hyped it, I bought a pair and they're the worst pieces of garbage I've ever owned on the inside but the casing is hq

huh i saw a bunch of reviews that hyped it

I agree they're overly bassy but I don't really mind

can't decide if I like them over bass modded t2s

just buy kz

got my ZSNs

they're pretty nice

think I'll swap the tips for the Zircon tips though

Did i get double chinked, my oneaudio hedphones do not say pro on the package

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Original-Oneodio-Headphone-Professional-Studio-Dynamic-Stereo-DJ-Headphones-With-Microphone-HIFI-Headset-Monitoring-For-Music/32902166436.html

got the "studio pro silver"

ahahahahaha

btw i got both normal and silver version, the only difference is the ear padding, both sound completely awesome and offer one amazing thing

you can connect your tin t2 to them, and listen with your cute boyfriend

https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1heLZQFXXXXXlXXXXq6xXFXXXq/230080147/HTB1heLZQFXXXXXlXXXXq6xXFXXXq.jpg

like pic related

i m already listening with my bf to anime openings

we enjoy it very much

are these comfy ?

@𝕄𝕚𝕕𝕠𝕣𝕚

@foxhunt yes

also what was the price written on the package

if you still have it

or bothered to check

@𝕄𝕚𝕕𝕠𝕣𝕚 wait hold on you mean you can connect another set of headphones into the 3.5 on them when you're using the 6.5 to put audio through to them and it'll have sound in both?

I've had these for 2 years and I had no idea ~~not that I've ever had a reason to try doing that~~

@foxhunt don't have that anymore but I didn't get customs on it

that is good to hear

yeah i was hella lucky too, they became pretty tough on china, but mine arrived from "estonia" that is maybe how it did not end up taxed.

yes you can do exactly that, it is super comfy for mountain trip (in train sharing)

my got same package, as @Tribit i wonder if there is sound difference between that and black pro with the pro black box.

It's just packaging

same headphones

good to hear, i mean also the right and left is not marked inside shells, but that is minor detail

tbh from the 2 versions i got, standard one is more comfy

because the larger foam does not distrubute the weight right, it does get very "top heavy" with the "pro" version and does not fit so well

when it comes to music, both have very nice bass and sound fun, but sounds in the non pro version are sharper, maybe just because of the shell, if someone told me there is no other difference, i would believe him

I'm not running it on something super fancy, just 20$ external audio card

but end effect is that "pro" version is less tiring for longer listening sessions, buth both are purchase i'd recommend

not chifi but fidelio x2hr for $140 https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826138361&ignorebbr=1

only ships to canada tho :(

x2 is shit

Black version went to my friend for 50$ superlux 662hd evo went to my mom for bread with blueberry jam and i m keeping the fancy version that does look like something made of cheapest plastic avaible, but color scheme is good match for my furniture.

What the hell does "sound fun" mean?

it means they trying to justify the purchase

Can I beat https://meh.com/ with something from Ali, or for that price should I just get the Polk?

From you I expected that tou built your own <:thvnk:332928260004642827>

@timsandtoms why is the price much lower than amazon

And for chink speakers, it's either edifier r1280t/r1280db (latter has Bluetooth) or Swan d1010 (which seems to be oos on amazon)

And speakers are a big and mostly hollow box so it's usually more cost effective to just buy locally

@Deleted User has the r1280db iirc

Are the edifier r1280t a big step up vs these?

And meh is a daily deal site, hence the crazy low price.

It's from the guy that did http://www.woot.com, pretty much to the day that his non-compete was up after Amazon bought Woot.

@timsandtoms dont think u can beat the polk for 40$ lol

do you have to have passive speakers?

@timsandtoms https://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-mk402-4-2-way-bookshelf-speaker-pair--300-455

these are well reviewed fwiw

65$ tho

http://noaudiophile.com/Dayton_MK402/

id prob take the swan over them though

look on /r/budgetaudiophile

tho

Didn't know about that sub, thanks, I'll poke around.

@Julian @timsandtoms yes I have the 1280db

AMA

after i got active speakers, passive speakers never again.

and it is not bad idea to make your own speakers either

that 10/exciting sound

What are the grey straps for?

gay straps? For style mostly, but also to offer that authentic ™ triangle sound

not chinkshit but I have a question

I need to get a mic

budget's like 70 burger bucks tops

what's the recommended option at this price point?

why are you spending that much on a mic

and bm800 or nw3u

those need meme phantom power supplies don't they

nw3u is usb and bm800 can be used with some janky converter without a supply

but yeah nw3u is a clear budget winner

also, not really planning on spending that much, it's just what I'd think is a "reasonable amount"

thanks

those mics are *plenty* for voice chat use

where to cop? goybest? amazon?

I'm not really familiar on copping mics on chinkshit sites

what country are you

bm800 + Um2/UMC22 for autism points

ausfag

a small mic would be nice

since my shoebox /bst/ is very cramped

oh

hmmmm

those mics we recommended should be used with boom arms

How much quality do you wanna get?

also cant find nw3u in aussieland

@Droidbot w2c nw 3u

https://www.amazon.com/Neewer-Condenser-Microphone-Broadcasting-Conferencing/dp/B074PJVCGR?th=1

this is for burgars though

@Sdeck37 just enough to shitpost on /int/ vocaroo threads, some shitty wh40k voice acting and to chat with friends

Tbh i'd go BM800/um2 then

Check out some blue ball comparison and look if it's good enough for you

working with limited space here tbh

I might cop the nw3u

if I can find it

https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Neewer-USB-Condenser-Microphone-and-NW-35-Pro-Desktop-Mic-Stand-Kit-NW-3U-Cardioid-Mic/2309048_32833240003.html

@Sdeck37 ?

this it?

@Hiruzen can only ship from ameriga

for some reason

from and to*

and do I need a meme phantom power supply for the nw3u

no its usb

No, that's the Plus of it

gotcha

confused the 3 with the 3u

ah fuck

they don't ship to aus

@Julian

wow

no

look

I'm not that retarded yet, this is what they told me

(((they)))

nvm maybe I am retarded

they have a warehouse in the US that only ships to users in the US

I didn't see the from and to* edit

I assumed they could ship from the US to here, but they can't

<:pepeturt:499291994649133067>

yeah we tried messaging the sellers

thinking about it, shipping to the us, and from the us to aus would just be a waste of money

Get a BM800 @Hiruzen

I have no space for a phantom power unit

you can use it with janky usb converters

I think its a cable for usb power+aux cable that way

Just get the neewer

they don't ship to aus

(if you can find one)

For that price u can look for some Samson Q2U

Or used and overrated Yeti

As I understand chinkshit can‘t into microphones

@soddomist thanks friend

I might just cop some blue snowball on sale or something

Your welcome friend

Blues are overpriced and overmarketed af

they're ok if you can get them for discount but for the most part yes, overpriced

Fuck the TRN BT20s are nice. Wish the controls for them made any sense though

Has anyone used bluedio t2s

I am thinking of getting one for my daily commute

What is the battery life like

@Noskcaj i was thinking of getting some, do they have any hiss, and how is the battery life?

No hiss that i've noticed, bluetooth 5.0 i think improved that a lot. I've only went 2 hours between charging, but they havent ran out on me yet

i had some bt10s and they had a lot of hiss (i dont know if it makes any difference, but i was using trn v80s)

i lost them and i wanted another BT so i was thinking of getting the bt20, but not if they were as hissy as the 10

tell me about DAC's

are they snakeoil?

in most cases yes, dacs usefullness is mostly dependant on audio source device (32bt 192000 Hz audio source vs 24bit 48000hz for example) , other determining factor if you get use is what and how your audio files itself were recorded,edited and published (how its meant to sound vs how it sounds Digital or Analog) at best dac takes digital waves and turns them into analog out (smoothening the differences) at worst it modifies the audio itself with some after effects like extra smoothening,balancing, peak cutting etc.............. and then we get to preferences,different forms of ears, music styles itself....

TLDR: considering current audio devices DAC is mostly used as amplifier instead purely Digital to Analog converter to get slightly better audio from shitty audio source where it is band-aid to repair open bone fracture at best __**so it is indeed snakeoil on any sane device**__

oi the E10K is ok

same for e07k

yeah probably equally ok, friend pay extra for dac ((upgrade))

just get the apple dongle

only $12ish

i recomend chord hugo ii as a good affordable dac

very good $/pref

Found my endgame iems

Galaxy buds

Is the Tin T2 the top choice right now ? Budget wise

yeah but if you get it for $35 for less

tbh its probably still top choice for $50, but most people got it for the $30-$35 price and view it as such

if youre interested how to get the discount

Nice thanks @Julian

no problem friendo

my dudes, i got my pal some tin t2s for christmas, but he just now got around to trying them out, and apparently they have their polarity reversed
is there any way to fix this? or maybe some revered polarity cable i can order?

what do you mean reversed polarity?

as in left and right reversed?

if so, just switch the cable around from one side to the other

no not the left and right

hold on let me get an example

https://www.audiocheck.net/soundtests_headphones.php

scroll down to "wiring"

and click these buttons

oh his tins center sounds like twisted is supposed to, and twisted sounds like center is supposed to

if he's got a problem like that, and he got them with ali, he could try and go for a refund

message seller first

I ordered them on 11.11 will the seller even still bother?

not sure, I've luckily never had an issue with ali before

youre not losing anything if you try

ill send a message and see what happens

is there any latest and greatest meme

T2 fren

Best meme 24/7/365

trn v80 superior

my v80s should arrive soon

hope they're good

i love them

but

you know

thats me

yea 🤷

I'm loving the GR07s

has anyone ever tried the I-into i8?

i picked some up for a lark and they have the most ridiculous bass of any iem ive tried

according to the listing they explode

Blow up eardrum dear friend
