2 pin will always be superior

2018-09-02 08:10:09 UTC  

How?

2018-09-02 08:10:22 UTC  

Mmcx holds fucking well, what more do you need?

2018-09-02 08:10:31 UTC  

it breaks stupidly easy

2018-09-02 08:10:36 UTC  

which is terrible for what he wants to do with it

2018-09-02 08:10:46 UTC  

the whole mmcx connector has to flex for it to click in and out

2018-09-02 08:11:01 UTC  

Really? It seems sturdier than pin just looking at it

2018-09-02 08:11:08 UTC  

versus 2 pin which is just 2 springed contacts clamping down on a pin

2018-09-02 08:11:17 UTC  

Hmm

2018-09-02 08:11:19 UTC  

2 pin is recessed with a plastic body so you cant really munt it

2018-09-02 08:11:26 UTC  

unless you bend it when its out of the socket

2018-09-02 08:11:47 UTC  

Well, that shouldn't happen unless you're retarded

2018-09-02 08:11:49 UTC  

Damn

2018-09-02 08:12:01 UTC  

Should've bought v80s

2018-09-02 08:12:18 UTC  

mmcx is generally fine if you dont unplug it like ever

2018-09-02 08:12:25 UTC  

but otherwise its just a shithouse connector

2018-09-02 08:12:34 UTC  

i really wish we had a good screw in standard for iems

2018-09-02 08:12:46 UTC  

you get the best of both worlds

2018-09-02 08:12:58 UTC  

How long will it last plugging it in and out?
15 times?

2018-09-02 08:13:12 UTC  

no ability for the pins to come loose, and no flexing of the entire connector

2018-09-02 08:13:20 UTC  

if only smc was smaller

2018-09-02 08:13:29 UTC  

@AstroJannah ive had some die from less

2018-09-02 08:13:40 UTC  

<:pepestressed:327933525124841482>

2018-09-02 08:13:48 UTC  

mmcx is just a really dumb connector for iems

2018-09-02 08:14:07 UTC  

it was designed for network antennas which needed to be stiff and tight fitting, but be able to rotate

2018-09-02 08:14:13 UTC  

not a constantly moving object

2018-09-02 08:14:16 UTC  

What do you use currently as a daily driver?

2018-09-02 08:14:20 UTC  

V80 also looks like it'd fit better, T2s over ear make the cable lean to the side at the highest point before going behind the ear

2018-09-02 08:14:23 UTC  

2 pin is straight up superior

2018-09-02 08:14:27 UTC  

i dont use iems daily atm

2018-09-02 08:14:35 UTC  

but i have my er4s for when i do

2018-09-02 08:14:36 UTC  

Just audio in regular

2018-09-02 08:14:51 UTC  

modded dt250, modded hd430, and my own custom headphones

2018-09-02 08:15:00 UTC  

+ a geekout 1000 and an amb beta22

2018-09-02 08:15:08 UTC  

Yeah you showed them a while back
Quite nice

2018-09-02 08:15:33 UTC  

i dont think ill ever find a headphone with better midrange than the 430 lol

2018-09-02 08:16:17 UTC  

Is it worth getting the dt880/990?
Rtings shills it alongside some other brands

2018-09-02 08:16:35 UTC  

990 sucks

2018-09-02 08:16:43 UTC  

880 is good if you can handle the treble

2018-09-02 08:16:47 UTC  

Ouch

2018-09-02 08:16:57 UTC  

it competes with the other midfi open backs pretty well
