a friend bought a superlux HD681 and was mindblown by it

2017-05-30 00:22:04 UTC  

@hale just don't get the pro's. they start getting really shoddy connection at the mcx end around 1 month of normal use.

2017-05-30 00:22:05 UTC  

I have that superlux one, it's great

2017-05-30 00:22:19 UTC  

people here can only buy shitty headphones

2017-05-30 00:22:36 UTC  

you have to really go through some shit to get good headphones

2017-05-30 00:22:52 UTC  

is it worth taking the mic version?

2017-05-30 00:23:13 UTC  

good question, idk about their mics

2017-05-30 00:23:28 UTC  

but if you want to cheap out on the mics you can use some VSTs in real time

2017-05-30 00:23:44 UTC  

it's $2 more

2017-05-30 00:23:48 UTC  

I guess I'll try

2017-05-30 00:23:49 UTC  

why not

2017-05-30 00:23:58 UTC  

its not like the mic makes any difference

2017-05-30 00:24:10 UTC  

you reckon they'd be on par with the $1 clip on mics?

2017-05-30 00:24:25 UTC  

yeah, you could go for an antlion modmic

2017-05-30 00:24:33 UTC  

or even a zalman zm-mic1

2017-05-30 00:24:35 UTC  

i've only ever used $10 sony earbuds, I wonder if I will feel a noticeable difference with these

2017-05-30 00:24:43 UTC  

you will

2017-05-30 00:24:58 UTC  

you definitely will

2017-05-30 00:25:00 UTC  

this was the same case that my friend had

2017-05-30 00:25:02 UTC  

sony mdr e9lp, those ones

2017-05-30 00:25:14 UTC  

superlux sounds fine and its very cheap

2017-05-30 00:25:25 UTC  

alright I'm ordering

2017-05-30 00:25:32 UTC  

new Tennmak piano coming out soon. I don't recommend buying right now

2017-05-30 00:25:32 UTC  

might want to get velour pads for superflux though

2017-05-30 00:25:50 UTC  

oh

2017-05-30 00:25:56 UTC  

@entropea have you tried them?

2017-05-30 00:26:15 UTC  

yeah, if there's one thing I don't like about the hd681, it's the pads they come with

2017-05-30 00:26:21 UTC  

should be like $13 on ali iirc

2017-05-30 00:26:37 UTC  

I have the pianos. I'd recommend the kz zs5 right now

2017-05-30 00:26:38 UTC  

wait, how much does the HD681 goes for?

2017-05-30 00:27:08 UTC  

wait, but aren't the superlux something EVO better?

2017-05-30 00:27:14 UTC  

that's what I've heard at least

2017-05-30 00:27:24 UTC  

it should be, i'm not very familiar with them

2017-05-30 00:28:23 UTC  

are the kz zs5 worth the two fold price increase from the tennmak?

2017-05-30 00:28:31 UTC  

yes

2017-05-30 00:28:55 UTC  

hm, I'd have to consider it

2017-05-30 00:29:19 UTC  

though piano is very bassy

2017-05-30 00:29:24 UTC  

I do like bass

2017-05-30 00:35:20 UTC  

superlux isnt that great imo

2017-05-30 00:57:59 UTC  

they're like 40 bucks

2017-05-30 00:58:21 UTC  

the next tier up is obscure chink headphones and then you have entry-level headphones
