5ba each sidde ol

The liquid metal housing with it’s non-grain boundary is 3 times stronger than stainless steel and has excellent acoustic character that retrains harmonic resonance to archive a firm and more coherent sound.

that sounds like somethin youd hear from a normal western audio cable maker lol

i kinda want to try silve cables

but it'll prob just be a wastae of 50$+

wtf even is liquid metal

ye

isnt it just really hot metal

mercury?

have fun with that

do people actually use balanced cables iwth ther iems

i see so many o naliexpress

autists do

i mean, balanced amps *kinda* make sense with iems, because lower noisefloor is important, but a good SE can achieve the same levels fine

i just use my phone tbh

my phone sucks

massive noisefloor and a really bad aliasing

ye fair enuff

what do you use then?

god damn the new fiio daps look good

fiio e18, tho ive been tryna get my battery powered go1k to work, but my phone doesnt wanna otg literally anything other than my e18

dman 400 tho for the x5ii

400gbp

tbh i'd rather get a nw-a45 over any fiio dap

the battery life alone sells me over the fiio

didnt realize sony made a affordable dap now lol

ye that looks good

i'd get one but i like big screens lol

if i can verify that a cheap chinkphone has i2s, ill grab that and hook up a dac/amp via that, though itll have to be powered elsewhere

might see if i can get a used x5iii
