Anyways, that's what I'm getting. Will report back once I get it and test it

2018-11-08 12:36:54 UTC  

yeah but everything is in chinese

2018-11-08 12:37:01 UTC  

and you need agents to buy stuff from it no?

2018-11-08 12:39:09 UTC  

I think it depends on where you live

2018-11-08 12:39:24 UTC  

Taobao has integrated forwarders for Australia

2018-11-08 12:39:33 UTC  

So you just buy, gets to the warehouse, pay and it gets sent

2018-11-08 12:39:38 UTC  

All through Taobao

2018-11-08 12:39:47 UTC  

Getting an account set up is a huge pain in the ass

2018-11-08 12:40:02 UTC  

But I did all that already back when I bought those rads + Gentle Typhoons

2018-11-08 12:40:50 UTC  

once aliexpress becomes mainstream we'll all be moving to taobao anyway

2018-11-08 12:45:56 UTC  

It isn't mainstream now? <:thonk:288060975775612929>

2018-11-08 12:50:08 UTC  

@kylemd how much is that in real currency

2018-11-08 12:50:34 UTC  

You mean USD or AUD

2018-11-08 12:50:39 UTC  

usd

2018-11-08 12:50:55 UTC  

100.84usd

2018-11-08 12:51:37 UTC  

what the fugg

2018-11-08 12:51:47 UTC  

you call that dirt cheap lol?

2018-11-08 12:54:47 UTC  

The cheapest you can get that model through eBay or Amazon here in Aus is $279AUD = $204USD

2018-11-08 12:54:54 UTC  

So yes, it is dirt cheap

2018-11-08 12:55:15 UTC  

Also I don't fancy going through another 3 or 4 TRN cables and waiting for them to get here every time one dies

2018-11-08 12:56:31 UTC  

$100 for a cable

2018-11-08 12:56:36 UTC  

JUST

2018-11-08 12:57:31 UTC  

Also keep in mind it supports LDAC, which is apparently even better than AptX HD

2018-11-08 12:57:42 UTC  

None of the chi-fi cables support that

2018-11-08 12:59:31 UTC  

Ye but... $100 for a cable that'll probably break in a year is a scam

2018-11-08 12:59:54 UTC  

just get some airpods at that point 😎

2018-11-08 13:00:09 UTC  

Lol fuck that

2018-11-08 13:00:34 UTC  

I use IEMs for probably around 9hrs/day, 8 of which I'm in front of a computer

2018-11-08 13:00:56 UTC  

It's handy that I can move around the office and not have to constantly take an IEM in/out

2018-11-08 13:13:03 UTC  

what's the battery capacity

2018-11-08 13:17:26 UTC  

how did you get your trns to break

2018-11-08 13:18:01 UTC  

I'm sedimentary so I guess I don't have any reason to break mine

2018-11-08 13:22:36 UTC  

@kylemd LDAC is good shit

2018-11-08 13:27:37 UTC  

@Windatica first one was sweat I think. I was ripping apart tables and stuff in our spare office and it was like 35c in there at the time

2018-11-08 13:28:05 UTC  

Second one is probably because I only use my right IEM while at work, and used to let the left hand dangle (rest in my breast pocket)

2018-11-08 13:28:37 UTC  

I started disconnecting it at some point but I think it had done enough by that point, left side died a few weeks later

2018-11-08 13:31:35 UTC  

@kylemd im trying to look up the tin t2 iems on taobao but can't seem to find them

2018-11-08 13:36:17 UTC  

That's because it's not called the "TIN T2" in China, it's called the "天天动听T2" dear,

2018-11-08 13:37:58 UTC  

Cheapest is 299CNY = 43.12USD

2018-11-08 16:05:02 UTC  

my ears are cuckes
