@Deleted User this explains the blacklist

chifi phone 150 euros max price any recommendations from you guys in this room?

lenovo k3 perhaps*?

Anything that's not mediatek

doogee mix?

fiio x1 and an old nokia

can anyone recommend a standalone usb dac under $80? i'm looking for a standalone one not a dac/amp combo unit

not sure if you can find one without an amp

I can't understand foam tips

I've tried forcing them into my ear and yet the quality was subpar, probably not a perfect seal

you have to squeeze them first then put them in

let them expand in your ear

yeah, they expand really quickly back tho

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7Zc5meSooI

looks like the tips included with df10s are just shit

I replaced them with chink complys

p cheap to buy anyway, I got a pack of ten pairs for cheap

i do fine with silicone tips but I was just curious bout the foam ones

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10-pcs-QKZ-Original-5-Pairs-Colors-T400-Memory-Foam-Earphone-tips-foam-tips-Ear-Pads/32814971300.html

yeah these were the only foamies I liked

the memory foam fits really well for me

damn they're not exactly cheap :c

if the silicones with BGVP I will order won't fit I'm gonna give those a try

https://www.banggood.com/New-Bee-3-Pairs-of-Rebound-Memory-Foam-Tips-3-Pairs-of-Silicone-Earbuds-for-Earphone-Headphone-p-1125815.html?rmmds=search i have this set and they have been decent

only downside foam tips are that they are so porous that they are quite unhygienic to use

yeah they're gross

makes my ear swampy and SUCC the earwax right out

yeah and it sticks no matter how you try to clean the tips

and forms layer of EWWW on the tip surface

aka the downside of foam tips is = they dont last "forever" unlike their gygienic big brother silicon

what does csg think of chinkshit mics

I thought they're fine

at least the ones in the infographic

🤢 not BMEME-800

some of takstar's offerings are fine

i think zeos has a video with one of their 2x microphone setups

rly? bmeme? eh who am i to believe now

Bmeme works fine for me :^)

@Shuroga factor in the cost of phantom power supply for any of these chink shit mics, they don't work by plugging into the mic port

i have an audio interface so im not worried about phantom power

just build quality

its a microphone?

you plan on using it outside or something?

Any thoughts on Bluedio T3 Plus?

bass cannon

i have it and i can't say i like it

i like bass but its more like the fucking swamp

http://www.rtings.com/headphones/reviews/bluedio/t3-plus

pretty much

they're really tight too

i think i used a tissue roll or a tall cup to reduce the clamping force, but out of the box the clamping force tries to drill into your brain

What's a good chink meme available on Amazon? Friend needs some new shit

Harajuku meme shirts

almost everything chink is also on amazon

take yer pick

I didn't know benjie s5 cant into playlists...

oh well

atleast it sounds good and now i can listen to music when commuting again

@Windatica thanks for the advice. All I really want is something wireless for the train that won't leak sound and let people around me know I'm listening to Tay Tay

Here is a question you guys don't want to hear: any opinions on chink gay-ming headsets? I've been looking through and want something that's comfortable with a heaset microphone

XDDDDDDDDDDD

buy them separately fam

don't waste your time

or money

chink or not, they're not great

😦

I am never like on a desk or anything.

you can get a chink clip-on mic

for <2$

:/

rando chink headests are trash

buy a hyper x cloud or something if you really want a headset

eh, arguably they're still not best with sound

for their price

i got a pair for 30USD

better than most chink non headsets

makes sense

used?

new

huh

they're like double that around here

from gearbest if i remember correctly

oh

or just buy a bm-800 for $9 and a usb soundcard for $5

combine it with a scissor arm for $11 and you have a $25 standalone microphone that sounds better that the meme blue yeti, then buy a superlux 681+velour pads and now you have a $50 setup that sounds better than 99% of headsets

what bout phantom power

5v via usb sound card

that's probably the hardest part, because some soundcards are complete shit now that most of them have cheaped out on capacitors

doubt

usb sound cards shouldn't output any power for mics

unless modified?

look it up my dude

its the power of chink magic

i'm not exactly lying to you, but personally i would just buy a used/new interface

and skip all of that cheap chink bullshit

there is a deal for a behringer interface rn

https://www.adorama.com/beumc22.html?sdtid=10684908&emailprice=t&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_source=rflaid62905

$33USD

grab that + a bmeme800 + arm and youre set for ages

^

first things first
why would i want to record my voice

idk, i just saw windy going on about mics

just buy that ghetto $1 call center headset and ghetto rig it to your headphones if you dont give enough of a fuck

yeah 99% of the time people who ask me for advice due to my bm-800 video just want to be audible while gaming

and anything can accomplish that

lapel mic, call centre headset, whatever

>ebay

what the fuck

was that just me

3M tape that shit and snip the back off

was what

the preview was flashing on and off like 4x

nah i was editing the link

cut out the extra shit

reported

bls no

yeah lapel microphones are better for the gayming goy because gamers have low-iq

the amazon reviews for bm-800 always crack me up

comfy what's your bmeme video?

DEFECTIVE, I PLUGGED IT IN AND IT DIDN'T WORK

lol

kek

i wanna mod my BM800 with some damping material because the housing is so fucking ressonant

https://youtu.be/YlkiN62XsXE

nvm

found it

fantum powa

there's two, that one and one on somake/chink phantom power

I was gonna send a test but Vocaroo doesn't work for me

i honestly got so lazy that i just use my measurement mic for discord now lol

I'm not even using my bmeme right now, using a superlux USB mic

i dont have to deal with interface and shit since its USB

i can't even talk because i live in a dormitory ;;

beta

assert dominance

jeez i was annoying when i had a room to myself

why do you want a mic then

now i'm annoying because I got MX Blues

lmao

masturbate while loudly twitch streaming five nights at freddys

@spaqin you can probably see I gave up on replying to comments a while ago

you can probably see I gave up*

rip

they still PM me a lot

mostly little kids

you can still PM on youtube?

streamers wannabees

yeah

i thought they removed that function in like 2010 when they got rid of like all channel customisation

nah people still message me a lot

hi what is best microphone under $0.50c??

please ssir

rupees*

tutorials for youtube

mostly pajeet kids

notepad.exe

pajeets rustle me for some reason

https://audiobudget.com/product/URBANFUN/Hi-Fi-Mk2B

🤢 one driver

measures worse than the originals lol

yeah

also cheaper cable

@Windatica I bought one of those Bluetooth modules that has the straight connector and a pair of ES3's which I just checked the photo and they have bent 'L' sort of connection, does that mean I won't be able to use them together?

ya

cant

you could try sanding the connector to fit but i dont know if that'll work

benjie s5 got here, not a fan of the touch buttons but feels a lot sturdier than i expected

sounds same as the t6, not that i expected much of a difference really

Fuck me, what's the cheapest KZs that are compatible with the Bluetooth module?

ZS3

for the straight angled ones

to be fair, at least you can use them on the ZS5/6

i don't own ZST but i own ZS3/ZS5

i wish i had a bt cable for those

I might just wait a while, I've got ATE's and ES3's coming and I've never owned a pair of KZs before so I just want to get a feel for them before I decide to drop a bit more money on a more expensive pair

The cable was $2.99 you should have grabbed one

where was it 3bux?

Droidbot had a coupon for it on gearbest a little while ago, do a search in hot deals for it

It was au/NZ only

🤢

updated benjie s5 to agptek m20 firmware now it can do playlists

but the ui now a bit fucked up, its placed 2 pixels to the right than where it should have been

lol

that's chink for me

so like

how much of audiophile shit is just autism

a lot

i should know considering i heard a 160k headphone setup two days ago

does a good dac make a difference

depends on the implimentation

usually not

pretty easy to get a "good" dac

Pro tip, "audio grade" just means "not good enough for high frequency signals"

where do i get a good dac

Only place big price tags are really justified from a performance standpoint are loudspeakers and their amps because anything high power is expensive

just buy a high efficiency horn or some jbl thing lol

nobody needs to have a concert setup in their house do they

i heard some JBL4367's and they were fucking phenomenal

22k tho

I'm watching comfy's video on thrifting speakers and I'm kind of tempted to go out and find good speakers

passives

and buy an amp

No but if you want that more money actually means more good up to around the million dollar Mark

Damn, spending that much on audio shit seems like insanity to me

Also for dac pcm2904 is my new fave

Can you actually tell the difference past a certain point

with diminishing returns and all that

certain point of what

With loudspeakers yeah

price

what component are you talking about

Louder without distortion

yeah loudspeakers

oh just everything

yeah defo

hell you can even tell with good headphones, i was turning the orpheus up to like 110dB for moments and shit was still super clean

im not sure how but it was insane

god damn, how do your ears handle that

i'm not blacc and uaually i play things at a reasonable volume

hehe

i mean, im exxaggerating lol

i obviously didnt have a spl meter on me

but it was way past normal listening level

so like, any tips on thrift shopping old bookshelf speakers and shit?

honestly its a massive gamble

Look at the terminal for the wire

buy something that looks reasonable and buy an imm6 and EQ the shit outta em

You want binding posts not the little clips

That's a good rule of thumb for mystery speakers

Not always gonna mean they're good but the extra money spent there is a good sign

the old lepai 2020A+ amps are pretty decent if you can pick one up cheap

would pair well for some thrift speakers

damn, this audio shit is a rabbit hole innit

yeah

headphones are cheap even for TOTL shit

4k Utopia and 6k Susvara are fucking pennies compared to speaker shit

hell even if you wanna go big bux and get a 007mk2 with some mad tubes or an orpheus youre still on the lighter end of speaker systems

honestly the best way to stay out of it is just live in an apartment and use some decent cheap IEMs

yeah, i was just looking for a fun project

my IEM endgame is only gonna be about 750AUD lol
