Still didnt join kek

I don't know if it's a testament to the quality of chi-fi when I A/B them with $1,000 IEMs and come away with the impression that they're just not that different or if it's a testament to how overpriced IEMs are.

Really makes me think

😐

maybe ur ears are just lofi

possibly

but i do notice more of a difference with over the ear headphones

but tbh no headphone I've tried even comes close to the enjoyment I get from even entry level speakers

like the lsr305

<:iosthink:328535776843268105>

🤢 enjoying anything

I actually dont trust in myself telling apart a flac version of a song from a youtube rip

one of the reasons I dont want to splurge out on an lsr305 setup <:downs:355737951918882846>

i'm sometimes like 'holy shit the drums here sound bad in this song, that must be 128kbps mp3' while it's actually a 320 or even a flac

Eh flac from YouTube is easy

Spotify Vs flac is hard if not impossible

https://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2015/06/02/411473508/how-well-can-you-hear-audio-quality tfw they all sound pretty much the same to me <:downs:355737951918882846>

then again I did the test using a set of GAYMEN hyperx cloud 2s

I got 4/6

either WAV or MP3_320

spoti is 128

free is 128

highest with premium is 320

Free is 96kbps.

>paying for spoti

Premium is 192kbps, and you can use extreme quality which is 320kbps

I'd consider WAV or FLAc being extreme, but youknow, the *normos* at spotify don'tknow

<:tipsfedora:383326576609329162>

I kinda doubt the majority of people who use spotify even bother changing the default quality

320kbps is worth it, compared to 192kbps.

You just gotta have good earphones.

i.e. ones that aren't less than $10

Yeah 320 is easily worth it

I can barely tell a difference between FLAC and MP3 320 on my DAP, though

any new audio memes lately

im bored

QT2 and QT3

🤢

anything good?

and i forgot to order a second channel for my china amp

😭
