2017-10-21 01:49:03 UTC

EDIT Cleared my cart, made sure I clicked through from the link about to the KZ Bluetooth Module and the coupon worked. Both on their way! Thanks OP!

We may be retarded to each other but we're geniuses to the rest of the world

2017-10-21 01:49:06 UTC

shouldnt be expired

2017-10-21 01:49:18 UTC

I'll try it again

2017-10-21 01:52:14 UTC

It just keeps saying the code I entered isn't for this product, I tried clearing my cart several times as well but no good

2017-10-21 01:52:24 UTC

Tried both of the links as well

2017-10-21 13:30:32 UTC

do any cheap decent dacs exist?

2017-10-21 13:31:09 UTC

Define "cheap"

2017-10-21 13:31:58 UTC

under 100

2017-10-21 13:34:20 UTC

I have fiio q1

2017-10-21 13:34:31 UTC

It's good imo

2017-10-21 13:34:54 UTC

Sound better than phone or laptop

2017-10-21 13:35:09 UTC

oh yeah fiio lol

2017-10-21 13:35:11 UTC

i forgot they exist

2017-10-21 13:35:23 UTC

yea il lprob get a fiio then

2017-10-21 13:35:29 UTC

ive nevre had any issues with what they make

2017-10-21 13:43:01 UTC

dunno about the q1, but a lot of fiio stuff is warm and smoothed over af

2017-10-21 13:43:07 UTC

the e10k especially

2017-10-21 13:43:14 UTC

my e18 is pretty "sterile"

2017-10-21 13:43:24 UTC

the new Q1 just came out too btw

2017-10-21 13:43:36 UTC

bal output, not that its super important

2017-10-21 13:43:42 UTC

but form factor looks better

2017-10-21 13:44:39 UTC

if you want something not batter powered and smaller form factor, the SMSL idea measures incredibly well

2017-10-21 13:44:43 UTC
2017-10-21 13:45:06 UTC

oh yeah smsl

2017-10-21 13:45:07 UTC

hmm

2017-10-21 13:45:44 UTC

wow

2017-10-21 13:45:46 UTC

its even got a remote contrl

2017-10-21 16:32:42 UTC

I had a Fiio and it just kind of stopped working

2017-10-21 17:46:39 UTC

o7

2017-10-21 22:33:23 UTC

can anyone recommend some good chonger headphones?

2017-10-21 22:33:31 UTC

looking for sub 50USD

2017-10-21 22:41:00 UTC

superlux from the infographic

2017-10-22 12:18:35 UTC

I got some (admittedly very cheap) Superlux in-ears and I was pretty disappointed tbh

2017-10-22 12:18:45 UTC

are there over-ear a lot better?

2017-10-22 12:21:23 UTC

which in ears?

2017-10-22 13:02:06 UTC

the superlux inears are a copy of old sony ones

2017-10-22 13:02:12 UTC

never were very highly regarded

2017-10-22 13:02:42 UTC

also in typical superlux fashion there's like 6 versions of them

2017-10-22 13:07:21 UTC

thoughts?

2017-10-22 13:07:33 UTC

there's even a freq measure on the product page

2017-10-22 13:07:50 UTC

I can't decode it cause im not audiofag but hey

2017-10-22 13:08:07 UTC

seems like very V-shaped

2017-10-22 13:08:26 UTC

base and treble but only up to a point then they fall off a cliff

2017-10-22 13:53:19 UTC

@Droidbot frequency response means nothing without knowing what coupler and setup used.

2017-10-22 13:53:39 UTC

that said, if theyre using something IEC 711 compliant, it looks reasonably okay

2017-10-22 13:53:45 UTC

standard V shaped IEM

2017-10-22 13:53:56 UTC

FR doesnt mean eveything of course though

2017-10-22 13:54:28 UTC

but theyre using graphene drivers (likely a composite with something else), which tend to be quite good

2017-10-22 13:54:33 UTC

hm

2017-10-22 13:54:46 UTC

might see if audiobudget can get a sample of em

2017-10-22 13:54:53 UTC

message him about em

2017-10-22 13:55:00 UTC

he has a fairly big backlog tho iirc

2017-10-22 13:55:23 UTC

i really wish he'd stop using something with a 10 ohm output impedance, and use a 711 coupler tho

2017-10-22 13:55:58 UTC

The fit and build of those blitzwolf IEMs seems pretty reasonable tho, other than the cable

2017-10-22 13:56:06 UTC

but cables are always the issue with cheap IEMs

2017-10-22 13:59:37 UTC

according to some dude on head fi the zs3s sound better

2017-10-22 13:59:44 UTC

he got a review sample

2017-10-22 13:59:49 UTC

They're mediocre at best

2017-10-22 14:04:30 UTC

When all my current chinkshit arrives imma get some XE800s

2017-10-22 14:12:30 UTC

I have the KZ ZST pros and they sound surprisingly good.

2017-10-22 15:39:56 UTC

nah ZST are shit

2017-10-22 16:12:27 UTC

๐Ÿ”ฅ

2017-10-22 16:16:55 UTC

kz zst are nice, but imo they don't really hold a flame to twenty campfire andromatas all connected into my left ear

2017-10-22 16:36:54 UTC

or one eiaosi x6 phantom power edition

2017-10-22 22:59:38 UTC

Why not just use the free earphones they give you at shitty tourist guides

2017-10-22 23:01:51 UTC

Or on airplanes

2017-10-23 03:12:28 UTC

@Droidbot I got the code for that KZ Bluetooth Module to work, I saw your post in hot-deals and the coupon was coolstan2 but you said coolstan1 before on this channel which is why it wasn't working

2017-10-23 03:19:14 UTC

oh shit so that's why

2017-10-23 03:19:18 UTC

fuck

2017-10-23 03:19:45 UTC

Algoods dude ahaha

2017-10-23 12:55:32 UTC

what are the most popular memes for headsets?

2017-10-23 12:55:51 UTC

bluetooth+mic preferred

2017-10-23 12:59:59 UTC

ZS5 and Bluetooth Module

2017-10-23 13:00:36 UTC

over ear?

2017-10-23 13:01:15 UTC

In ear, but still a meme

2017-10-23 13:01:33 UTC

Over ear, @HEKTIK 's your guy

2017-10-23 13:02:05 UTC

bluetooth with mic that are actually good? lol glhf

2017-10-23 13:02:19 UTC

mostly for comms to vidya with friends

2017-10-23 13:02:26 UTC

doesnt have to be actually good

2017-10-23 13:02:34 UTC

There's no good chink wireless

2017-10-23 13:02:34 UTC

just buy whatever is cheapest then

2017-10-23 13:02:47 UTC

get a G930 from Logitech real cheap

2017-10-23 13:03:07 UTC

i use a docked laptop and the audio is all fucky, everytime i want to change aux to a headset i have to restart to make it work

2017-10-23 13:03:23 UTC

I've got SteelSeries Arctis 7 wireless but they're expensive

2017-10-23 13:03:23 UTC

apparantly common problem with lenovo docks

2017-10-23 13:03:34 UTC

just get an external dac/soundcard

2017-10-23 13:04:01 UTC

how much will a cheap meme one cost me

2017-10-23 13:04:17 UTC

dac/soundcard?

2017-10-23 13:04:18 UTC

like $3

2017-10-23 13:04:26 UTC

oh cool

2017-10-23 13:04:52 UTC

2017-10-23 13:04:52 UTC

ill stop the dumb questions now thanx lads

2017-10-23 13:04:53 UTC

works fine

2017-10-23 13:04:55 UTC

no hiss

2017-10-23 13:05:42 UTC

i usually just borrow a set of bose quiet comfort but dont have them all the time and its annoying

2017-10-23 13:05:58 UTC

and theyre pretty aids, heaps of static

2017-10-23 13:06:57 UTC

i got a cheap usb "sound card" and it colours the audio like fuck, makes it pretty tinny. what do you recommend that doesn't do this @HEKTIK ?

2017-10-23 13:07:12 UTC

the cm108 one i got seems "ok"

2017-10-23 13:07:23 UTC

i havent really tested it but nothing sounded immediately fucked

2017-10-23 13:07:39 UTC

if you need a proper verified DA/AD converter, grab a UCA202/222

2017-10-23 13:07:42 UTC

theyre only like $22

2017-10-23 13:07:59 UTC

but youll need an amp if you want to use the DA for anything that isnt line level shit

2017-10-23 13:10:13 UTC

lemme give the cm108 a bit more of a test

2017-10-23 14:26:08 UTC

I just got my zs5 v2 they sound like shit

2017-10-23 14:26:30 UTC

could someone recommend no V shaped earphones max 50 $

2017-10-23 14:37:03 UTC

Vivo XE800

2017-10-23 14:37:51 UTC

thats confirmed a legit seller

2017-10-23 14:37:59 UTC

there are a lot of fakes around the place

2017-10-23 14:38:19 UTC
2017-10-23 14:41:18 UTC

essentially a GR07 with a slightly worse cable

2017-10-23 14:41:26 UTC

same driver

2017-10-23 14:41:48 UTC

i've seen that you can use EQ to make them even better

2017-10-23 14:41:53 UTC

yeah

2017-10-23 14:41:59 UTC

the drivers are really responsive to EQ

2017-10-23 14:42:03 UTC

super low distortion

2017-10-23 14:43:25 UTC

thanks im gonna buy them

2017-10-23 14:43:32 UTC

no worries

2017-10-23 14:45:23 UTC

maybe you know how they get together with zishan z2 (ak4490)?

2017-10-23 14:45:32 UTC

I dont have the Z2

2017-10-23 14:45:36 UTC

I have the Z1 though

2017-10-23 14:45:48 UTC

2017-10-24 09:30:06 UTC

2017-10-24 14:59:13 UTC

2017-10-24 14:59:16 UTC

2017-10-24 14:59:36 UTC

rip

2017-10-24 14:59:53 UTC

didnt you do some mad custom moulding shit with sugru?

2017-10-24 15:00:02 UTC

ya that shit didnt work out at all

2017-10-24 15:00:07 UTC

it was chink sugru and it was awful

2017-10-24 15:00:12 UTC

i still have some of it unopened

2017-10-24 15:00:12 UTC

kek

2017-10-24 15:00:36 UTC

it bled onto your fingers like dough that had too much water

2017-10-24 15:03:54 UTC

i kind of want to try vidos but id rather not leave the "people who actually enjoy music" camp

2017-10-24 19:32:28 UTC

i wish iems went into my ear properly

2017-10-24 19:39:58 UTC

do what i do and buy a fuck ton of tips

2017-10-24 19:40:31 UTC

ive tried many sizes and the foam ones

2017-10-24 19:41:19 UTC

i use triple flange almost exclusively

2017-10-24 19:41:32 UTC

will probably also buy fuzzy and spinfits

2017-10-24 19:41:50 UTC

im afraid of losing them though, just yesterday i put my zircons in my shirt pocket and an eartip fucking vanished

2017-10-24 19:42:18 UTC

triple flange are cheap, not sure if im willing to take spinfits out

2017-10-24 19:46:19 UTC

mm ill try triple flange

2017-10-24 19:46:56 UTC

they always get loose and dont go in deep enough for me, same for you?

2017-10-24 19:47:21 UTC

no? i get a perfect fit for 1-1.5 hours at a time

2017-10-24 19:47:28 UTC

i mean normal tips

2017-10-24 19:48:18 UTC

the only iem i use normal tips are the ES3, i think the shape helps with the isolation

2017-10-24 19:48:23 UTC

same thing with the ZS3

2017-10-24 19:50:40 UTC

hmm

2017-10-24 19:51:42 UTC

when i use my kz ate the whole body sticks out and you can even see part of the tip

2017-10-24 20:17:17 UTC

ZS6 for 26 bucks, neat.

2017-10-24 20:17:28 UTC

28 shipped

2017-10-24 23:04:46 UTC

got piston fresh today

2017-10-24 23:04:54 UTC

paid ยฃ2

2017-10-24 23:05:31 UTC

these beat the other ยฃ2 earphones (s320 I think) I own by a reasonable margin

2017-10-24 23:07:13 UTC

very normie v shape as expected but the detail's pretty alright

2017-10-24 23:07:39 UTC

they don't pass the sibilance test though, unfortunately

2017-10-24 23:07:58 UTC

Son of Man is fucking painful

2017-10-24 23:24:23 UTC

@HEKTIK what is the best earphones i can get for 40-50 USD

2017-10-24 23:24:27 UTC

Doesn't have to be durable

2017-10-26 00:46:41 UTC

its just electricity my dude

2017-10-26 03:07:48 UTC

if it's short, buy a longer cable, dummy

2017-10-26 03:08:13 UTC

if you buy short cables, of course it's a short circuit

2017-10-26 03:11:39 UTC

Can't find a replacement for it? Unless im not looking good neough

2017-10-26 05:38:22 UTC

@Lawman open them up, and take the cord out. replace with another or shove a removable 3.5mm socket in there

2017-10-26 05:38:38 UTC

>updated

2017-10-26 05:45:15 UTC

fuk

2017-10-26 05:47:48 UTC

i mean, its kind of more of a higher tier rather than updated

2017-10-26 05:48:01 UTC

it fuckin miles better than the old silver cable

2017-10-26 05:48:06 UTC

and even that was miles better than the stock

2017-10-26 05:48:14 UTC

this one is super smooth

2017-10-26 05:49:36 UTC

microphonics still isnt amazing but eh

Fonge S500

2017-10-26 05:54:58 UTC

Essentially a Fonge T01 in a worse feeling but better fitting shell with more mids

2017-10-26 05:55:01 UTC

and more bass

2017-10-26 05:55:17 UTC

t01 for fit, s500 for sound, though both are pretty bad

in terms of sound

2017-10-26 13:01:04 UTC
