the mi6 beats the S8 in most tests from what I've seen

my rule is, if I can wait 3 weeks for it then I get it from China, if it's urgent I get it locally/Amazon

@refinery for example: try and find a better/cheaper duck roaster

idk how much those things are supposed to cost

unironically

i dont either, but they are probably more than that locally

i trust the chinks in that regard

@refinery have you checked the infographic?

that gives you a good idea what's best to buy from chinks

where is it

<#247481427803897866> ?

yeah

Infographic: http://chinkshit.xyz/infographic.pdf

the only thing the chinks didnt manage to conquer yet is used goods

cant find used tenga eggs anywhere on aliex

e-readers

since we get that question every thread

if they make an e-reader they're set

yeah i need a boom stand and pop filter for my microphone

prob just gonna go with aliexpress or something

don't care much for quality

wonder how the bm-800 holds vs a blue yeti

Ok so let's rank the best chink countries

@refinery bm-800 beats a blue yeti but it does require phantom power

blue yeti is only memed because twitch streamers are paid by blue to do so

>tfw no chink made home gym

do you need phantom power?

i got my blue yeti for $50

seems pretty close to the yeti in sound

yeah you can't really plug a bm-800 direct into PC, it requires power

the blue yeti works by packing phantom power inside of it

the USB connection charges it up

I don't mind though, it means I can easily upgrade to better mics like the audio technica ones one day

or Rode

what do you use for power

interesting in getting a bm-800

I used to use a chink phantom power box, now I use a focusrite scarlet solo

got it refurbished off ebay for fairly cheap

you can use a USB sound card to power the BM-800 decently well but nothing as good as full phantom power
