I know with my i12's I have to take them out of the case a good 20 secs apart

Or else they don't sync up

yeah i probably turned them off wrong and they reconnected as two sets

all good now

@meh get the mh750

clean your ear tips

use smaller ear tips

My Fiio mmcx cable for my t2 s broke on the right so I’m gonna throw it in the freezer and see what happens. Was already a replacement and I’m getting sick of having to replace stuff for it

get qcy t2

can't break a cable if there is no cable

👌 <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

@Supa Dupt try this cable: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32862069892.html

I have used it with my t2 for about 6 months now. Sleep with my earbuds on and the cable still works fine.

@Aqualiteking thank you for the recommendation but I don’t like over ear fit of those. Gonna get straight down ones next time if I can’t fix the cable myself

@Frederica Bernkastel Tin T2

Blon BL-03

All right thanks

my ears hurt so much, and only the hours I dont have them on

@meh iems?

ye buddy

The skin in your ear canals has been iritated

and having a seal in your ears disrupts earwax production.

wear headphones for a while.

have an imprint on my skull side because of headphones

its a common office disease

lmao what.

use headphones with less clamping force.

Wtf thats a thing? Headphones imprints?

only if you have a fat head

its only on the fat

basically meh needs to lose weight

so incredibly obese his body has to store fat on top

just out of curiosity what kind of tips are you guys using with your t2

its called Lipodystrophy, the fat is gone on one point because of pressure, often on legs because of shitty chairs

and yes the clamps are broken and they charge 16 euros for a piece of plastic

@meh try widening your headphones to reduce the clamping pressure.

stretch them over something heat reistant, and apply heat with a hair dryer over the band.

zsn pro w/ aptx vs haylou gt1

tyty

for everyday carry tho

@Aqualiteking it broke and I put a piece of paper in it which makes it pressure on me skull. No other solution right now. If I take paper away can't wear it

@meh https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:831032

you could 3d print one

nice idea but I would make them slimmer on the head side. but right now I dont dare anymore to put them on because of the dent of my fat tissue

You can edit the model in any CAD software.

just convert the stl first

and if you don't have a 3d printer, you have get them printed at https://www.treatstock.com

The cheapest quote for me is $8.2 USD (Inc Shipping)

damn

i've been watching a shit ton of videos from this oluv guy

its funny how a lot of the earphones people recommend him, he says are complete shit

same but with audiobudget

but Im a school dropout and cant do 3d modeling <:FeelsBadMan:589103983558393857>

3d modelling is so easy

just torrent the latest version of solidworks

it has built in tutorials that teach you how to use it. dummy proof

All you need to do is extrusion cut the back of the slider bit thinner.

What are the options for chink bt headphones?

@Lefteris how are your bluedios holding up?

still good

and i daily them

not even a crack on the pads

and the battery life is insane

phillips fidelio x2hr for 125 on amazon pog

🤢

also i think they went for $100

<:chinese_think:323022148870602752> what's wrong with them

Just save your money and buy stax

the 100 was USD on a newegg canada that only shipped to canada

go back to /hpg/ idiot

wtf

x2hr came

they alright

they really do sound like the nicer version of samson sr850 or w/e

dear buy tin t3

i have t2 and they're pretty nice

i think i still like the big bass of qt2 and similar

T2 and fiio btr3 is fine dear, and can have other cans or buds attached.

Tell me I'm wrong.

@miker shp9500 vs x2hr?

https://twitter.com/onkyodav/status/1188748836786716672?s=19

Favourite Euro-dance song?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMfxI3r_LyA

don't own shp9500 @Aqualiteking
they're clearly nicer versions of Samson sr850 but idk where the shp9500 falls in between
I'm betting 9500 bass will be nonexistent and maybe worse comfort
the x2hr pads are a bit stiff compared to eg. beats or Sony wh1000xm3 but also way bigger so it's not much of an issue

x2hr has very impressive bass for a velour + openback but qt2 still has far more bass, so does t2 with tips pushed over vents tbh

on the other hand x2hr is the first thing I've had that makes 128kbps mp3 blatantly obvious, like I can ab test with $7 monoprice earbuds but Spotify is listenable with most of my chi fi

not with x2hr

@Aqualiteking nice, I've got that one on CD somewhere

any solid sub 50€ headphones that is not based on GAMERS with microphone

takstar pro 82

the gamer edition of the takstar pro 82, the hyper x cloud series

which hyperx are 80 and which 82? are hyperx cloud ii = 82?

cloud 2 is 80

cloudX or cloud 1 is supposedly the same thing but with more accessories or something like that

You can just buy a cable with a microphone in it to convert any heaphones with a jack.

@miker I dunno. Usually I can hear the difference between 128 and 320kps if the track was compressed poorly.

Can you tell the difference in quality between these two files?

i dont want microphone tho

i want just headphones

the way you worded it seems like you did want microphone

check the pinned messages

sorry, i meant to say i dont want something that looks like its made for gamers

just overall solid sound quality with no nigger bass

yes, one of the filesizes is 3x larger than the other :/

the repeating bassline that goes like
BOOOM. bwapp. 1-2-3-4
the 1,3 and 2,4 are much more distinctly different sounds in the 320kbps one and actually sound like real ?snare? drums

from listening on revonext rn-qt2 relatively high volume in a subway lmao
will update with x2hr results

note that I know very little about music / music theory

on x2hr - yeah I don't know the song well enough to hear much of a difference

@miker up to about 256K AAC or 320K MP3 is considered transparent range

well

noticeably transparent

there isnt much high end on the 320 anyways

just get flacs

if you want, or get 320 kbps if you cant find flacs

What software is that @eggy

That is super interesting, there is more high end freq in the 320mp3 file. I can barely make this out at the beginning of the song, but can't tell the difference for the rest of it

@miker I don't want to spend money of a new set of headphones to find out there is an indistinguishable difference between the 9500's and x2hr. So thanks for taking the time to tests those two songs.

@Aqualiteking spek

the song doesnt have much high end besides the snare, voice kinda, and the trumpet synth, so it wouldnt be that noticible

but you can deff tell at the trumpet part

I can barely make out some difference in quality. Insane that your ears can pick that up.

I can pick out the da da da peak things

as being not so distinct on the lower kpbs

and more distinct in the higher bit rate version

Taking the plastic cover off my trn cable

I hate wrapping it over my ears without the plastic the cord goes straight

yeah, because that plastic has a metal wire in it that keeps the cable coiled

lol no it's not that advanced

its just plastic/rubber bent with heat

no metal wire

I started with a gym and I'd like some in-ear headphones that are wireless, cause my wired ones keeps pulling themselfs out or stucking on machines

any good options?

is this good?

Yes

But here we like the qcy t2s

Blitzwolf are also good

playtime around 2h or less?

i cant find playtime on single charge, only propaganda >32h music playtime

I don't know about others but I like airpods/airpod clones for gym, since they don't block surrounding noises and thus let my ears breathe a bit

it can get really uncomfortable, but it might just be my defective ear canals

I found some airpods 2 for 35 burgers

unliscensed production

can anyone recommend a good laryngophone

anyone interested in tin t3? they are going on sale for 50 dollars on 1111

>looking at earbud reviews

kz e10 tws are good ?

no

https://www.scarbir.com/tws/kz-e10-tws-review

if they made the earhook a little fatter they could make a TWS 2pin module

that already exists

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32954012728.html

that's too fat

fat or no battery life, choose one

Any foam tips that work for true wireless earbuds?

Comply has special tips for some of them

What a meme

Are the t2pros still the goto

t2's are go to

probably best bang by buck by a mile

Yeah

Not the pro

hey

are there any amps for phones

that you can power with 18650 cells

I don't wanna deal with shitty inbuilt batteries

just a nice reasonable portable setup that i can use with my phone

have we settled on optimal eartips for t2s
and best way to cover the vent (or not)

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/189466684938125312/636561983138955293/e78e098.jpg?width=507&height=676

@androidcrawler you will end up like this

what the fuck is that

I just want a device that is like another smartphone that takes 18650s

orr wait

@miker electrical tape

you know what 5.1 sound card thing

the external one

can i use this as an amp?

huh
what about eartips tho
i just cover the vent by pushing the eartip over i

guys?

just use a dongle

what kind

I was thinking of maybe getting that planar from tin hifi in the future

and they say you need an amp to really hear all the sound range

I was thinking of a small power bank like device i could carry in my pocket with my phone

or should i just get a dedicated music player

I don't think there's any portable amp that has a removable battery

Let alone one that takes 18650s

Unless you count the V20 as a dedicated music player

mpow m5 or sabbat e12?

i got a note 4

tin t2 chink hq replacement cable?

and best tips?

best tips are whatever that your ears like

replacement cable check pinned messages in <#365921969004216320>

You might consider spintips

They are a bit pricy but very comphy

Are KZ's 2-pins standard or a proprietary format?

Seems like the latter

think they're just 0.75m spacing not 0.78mm spacing

Hi dears, I just bought a Shield TV but only have optical or analogue inputs into my speakers. Is there any good chifi options that would work?

I was eyeing off a HDMI Toslink splitter on eBay for ~$30 AUD but if I can get something better and cheaper I'd be happy

who here getting t3? does it seem worth it?

@miker settled on what?

Are there any chink headphones worth while?

Aside of superlux
