chifi, heh

I'm still going on my sennheiser MM70s i bought four years ago

they've been through the washing machine twice

also >mfw audiophools pay $$$$ for dac >build a dac measurably just as good for $20

mfw i just use the onboard sound

i mean tbh unless poor design that's fine these days

audio dacs are a Solved Technology you can buy an ic for a couple bucks that does it all perfectly within the entire range of human hearing

my father's in the audio recording business and he said they're fine these days

the box you put the board in is the most expensive part of an audio dac

>mfw I didn't have sound drivers installed on openBSD and didn't notice for almost 3 months

everything else he just uses a focusrite audio interface

you can get those for like $100 now and it's studio quality

wow are there drivers for openbsd now

also >mfw audiophiles whine about their low noise opamps >open up analog mixing board >lm741 everywhere

well it either works or doesn't @fedora

lmao

i should try bsd after i get bored of hackintosh

next meme to fall for i guess

audio engineers in taiwan keep their analog mixing boards around and all the audio racks of hardware equipment

go for freebsd over openbsd imo

but everything's jusut done in software

with a good audio interface

freebsd sucks, don't use an operating system that not even the core devs use

the hardware's just there to impress producers

right but remember audiophools only listen to analog production vinyl records of the beatles

so their precious analog mixing board filled with lm741 is funny to me

i've got a soft spot for vinyl because that's what i remember our family using sometimes

when they complain about anything less than a $30 opamp in theuir headphone amp

the syntrend in taipei has a floor dedicated to audio

and 1/3 of it is a place where you can buy new or old vinyl records

i doubt i'll ever buy from there but it sure looks cool

http://upload.review33.com/avforum/201607/201607281121453400.jpg it's a nice place

if i had the room i'd probably get into vinyl, but mostly for archival of obscure old music nobody cares about

install OpenBSD

tape too, i really like compact cassettes

god i hate how default xfce looks

whaaat

even though its my favorite de

XFCE is the most sexy DE out there

Don't fall for the Gnome bloat

i dont like that theme, too shiny
