Better bang for buck and great earpads

saw them in the stickied msg, i'll look them up, ty

can't find any proper review on head-fi, tho

i wonder if they're just a shilled meme

They're not

Plenty people here have them and can confirm

what bout the takstar pro82 or their derivatives, the cooler master mh751/mh752?

the former are pinned, but i can't find much info about the latter despite their better availability where i live

They're essentially the same

Idk about mh752

Also consider ksc75 or Porta Pro, I have Porta Pro and would rec you get ksc75 instead

The 752 just gives you a 7.1 USB adapter for ultimate gayming

The 751s do have some physical changes like larger cups that change the sound a bit but they're largely similar to the pro82

Also the 751 gets rid of the bass slider if you wanted that

At least in the US the 751 is usually cheaper so it's a better deal

got my mh752, gud purchase

mic is mediocre but audio quality is 👌

7.1 is a cool gimmick too

i got those xiaom airdots (lite? young? whatever the name is), what tips would be suggested?

i heard memory foam is nice but not sure i can just shove whatever on the airdot

Personally I've never liked foam tips

Silicone is way more comfortable to me

Try and get a variety set of tips to see what you prefer. Double flange tips are nice too

I wouldnt advise on using double flanges with those things since theyre likely to make them stick out more

foam tips are nice, but deteriorate a lot faster than silicone ones

Does it matter where I get Takstar Pro 82's from (Amazon, eBay, or AliExpress)?

I was taking a look at some takstar pro 82 rebrands

and there are even headset versions of it

Anyone know of good wireless earbuds?

I lost my fucking t2s and now I need something for the gym that doesn't sound like earfucks

another pair of t2

A pair of KZs that cost the same fit better and sound the same

t2s and trn bt20

Qcy qs2

@Wheeshnaw kz wats

my fuckin porta pros died right after i put yaxi pads on them

$9+shipping to repair them or $15 for ksc75 <:blobthinkingfast:427569198886027264> k

get the Koss KPH30i

oh fuck they skyrocketed in price

wtf

i was looking at KPH30i like a month ago

werent they like $20

oh thy are 30US

but 70CAD????

i think ill do ksc75 + yaxi + porta pro headband or parts express headband depending on how they fit

parts express headband has too much play

i wish i knew how i broke em

probably a wire wriggled loose

no i think i damaged the driver itself

one side has notably less bass

and turning up the bass with an eq makes it crackle

im a whore for bass though so im wondering if i can just eq that shit back to pp levels

oh nevermind it looks like the KPH30i is at its normal price

i think amazon is having some strange issues displaying koss products

i hate the all the taxes we get on importing stuff

<:chinese_think:323022148870602752>

y tho

mid fi prison

i'd take those kph30s's to the gym if they were 30$

audio is a trip

i purchased $15 headphones to replace my $30 headphones that i just spent $15 for better earpads and in the meantime im using my $120 in-ear earphones

i suppose that means i can never escape being lo-fi

@Windatica have u considered just buying whr1000x mk 3 and being happy

I need open backs

Also happiness is cheap

I liked my porta pros but I had to change the pads

Not a fan of porta pro pads either

The thin foam doesn’t round the sharp plastic housing behind it

Does the comfort slider on the porta pros actually do anything?

I've never noticed a difference on any of the settings

yes

it kinda changes both the clamping force and angle of the drivers

To my UK audiofools, ATH-M40X is £5 cheaper than it usually is right now (£69 , usually £74) https://www.amazon.co.uk/Audio-Technica-ATH-M40X-Professional-Headphones-Black/dp/B00HVLUR54/

finally bought a pair

grew a pair too ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

well now they back to £73 , GG

What cheap and good headphones go well with the vmoda boompro

(dont say shp9500 I can't buy them here)

Replacement pads for my 700x came in

Old vs new

pretty happy they gave my headphones that "new" feeling

That new feeling that we all once had with our headphones

@bap SHP9500 can be bought off aliexpress

@bap another headphone that goes well with a boompro is the OneOdio Studio Pro

shp9500 sux

and is probably forever overpriced thanks to * reviews

no it doesn't suck

and it's not expensive on ali

@basker is that hash?

@bap you can get the SHP9500's off Aliexpress now.

@androidcrawler no?

thanks

at first I thought theyd be fake but apprently not

i didnt know Creative was still around

I don't get why people buy wireless earbuds the battery is empty fast compared to wireless headphones and you can easily lose them

because they dont have any wires

did that answer your question?

well wireless headphones also don't have wires

yeah but they're big

they live longer and you don;t lose them that easily

and even if the battery runs out some headphones you can just hook up a cable and you don't have to charge them right away

Comparing apples to nazi oranges here

Easier with earbuds at gym

Chinked

1st day with them

pretty happy for 10$

@basker razer keyboard?

yeah BW ultimate 2013

nice

pretty old

I had the same

2014

wasd keys were getting pretty loose

so I got a new keyboard

I'll be getting my chink headphones soon

oneodio studio pro

this keyboard has held pretty well

no real issues except its not supported by the new razer software

so i cant use the macros

yeah

older razer keyboards are good

I've gone for cherry mx blacks this time

because I don't want to keep my flatmate awake with loud blues

Quick question; you talked about the WASD getting loose. Why not solder in new switches if it was still working well?

I'm a lazy bastard

also rgb

switch to <#531212403858472967>

before a faggot arrives

😂

My takstar pro 82 arrived

someone said that it would be an upgrade from the m50x

dont think so, mid and highs are less clear on the takstar pro 82

bass by itself is better tho

but it doesnt feel as good as the m50x

still a great headphone for the price

really good, really comfy

deffinitely one of the best picks up to $200

I've compared to some other headphones

T2 > m50x > takstar pro 82 > akg k240

are these any good?

yes qcy is gud

$10 markup just for buying it on amazon

🤔

difference between t1 and t2?

everythign

t2 is too good

also, t2 vs t3 what is the consensus?

I've heard that t2 pro sucks

yea

more bass heavy or something

its a sidegrade more than anything

t3 are an upgrade but currently not worth the price performance ratio of the t2

any other good wireless in ears?

id love to open those and see identical to anyone else driver and stuff there

and people just paying out of their ass for the brand and idioticy

This kinda shit is why western companies are either dropping prices or dying

Looks like my V-Modas are kicking the bucket, and I'm about done with buying $350 headphones from them the moment my previous pair goes out of their "great" warranty. Yall got recs on higher-end over-ear headphones? I need them to be compatible with a 3.5mm cable.

Also: strongly prefer closed-back

pro82

What's the sound profile on those?

nvm they have a graph on the product page

Anything better than that though? I don't care about budget, really.

Do all 2-pin iem connectors suck or have I just had bad luck?

KZ ZS5/CCA C10, found the connectors really loose on both

Lost a ZS5 unit when I was running, C10 came off and fell down stairs

Just want to know if it's a kz thing, if I got a different brand would they be more secure? Or should I go for MMCX?

uh

do you have a tendency to plug/unplug them often

i think it might just be a kz thing because mmcx connectors vary in tightness

the t2 have notoriously tight mmcx connections

2 pin > mmcx in my experience

My Peacock P1 are 2-pin and that connector works flawlessly. My little sisters had some KZ earphones and their connectors worked fine as well

You shouldn't be unplugging them very often regardless of connector type

no, I don't really unplug them, just set them up when I first get them and then whenever they fall out

should go for fixed cable or tws as I have become shiva, destroyer of headphones

Fixed cable is an easy way to lose the entire pair of headphones if your cable goes bad

Learned that the hard way with RHA t20

what the hell are you guys doing with your headphones to run into so many cable issues? i don't treat my t2's all that nicely, but i still haven't ran into any cable issues, yet every thread on reddit/4chan etc complain about cable breaking, or connection being bad.

If you're out and about during the day but using wired headphones, the cable is likely to take damage from numerous sources as time goes on.

Ja jaaan

My tin p1s finally arrived

Only took 3 months

Fucking massdrop

neat case

Is it even possible for them to sound clearer than my pc37x's

high end headphones in earphone form??

gotta say, it's at least worth the wait

Aw shit, here we go again

@Wheeshnaw are they worth it?

I'll let you know in a month

Any decent chifi wireless NC headphones or should I not bother going cheap on that?

Alternatively, and I realize this is a weird question, but are there any wireless earbuds that don't have tips e.g. they're shaped like ve monks or yincrow x6s or airpods or something? I have a really bad problem with getting tips stick in my ears, even with decent pairs (yes I clean my ears)

@doji give me a sec

https://medium.com/@scarbir/best-cheap-active-noise-cancelling-headphones-under-100-e965dad626bc

budget ANC

as for TWS earbuds? no clue

Thanks very much for the link

I am considering the edifier w830bt

are there any good chink desktop speakers out there?

$100 tops

there was some decent models cant remember the brand name form top of my head

@Windatica might remember when ever he is online

the only good chink desktop speaker is the edifer 1280db , R1010BT

edifers it was

thanks

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32823289275.html?

R1010BT can go for like $50 with coupons

and the 1280db goes for $100 on refurb according to someone from the headphone discord

actually that might ave been referring to a single unit

also

👀

F

can't buy until I get paid at the end of the month

> he doesn't have a couple of paychecks saved in case of emergencies

I do have some paycheques* saved up

unfortunately new speakers don't constitute as an emergency

@Windatica 1280db are $100 new lol

the only difference between the T and DB is bluetooth/digital input, right?

@Julian

yes

thanks

db version has them both, of course

yeah

I'll go for thee T

don't need/want bluetooth

my qcy finally arrives

I really like them and have been using them all day

well memed my good sirs

well memed

which ones

QCY T2

The funny thing is someone is selling them here for 55$

no one is selling any locally

time to flip loadsamone? 🤔

@foxhunt Im guessing you did the research, what is the difference between t2s and t2c?

They are even discounted from 70$

No idea

Has the tin t2 been beaten yet

Probably not at the $30 it goes for now

I'd say yes, by multiple companies, at $50
