that's chink for me
so like
how much of audiophile shit is just autism
a lot
i should know considering i heard a 160k headphone setup two days ago
does a good dac make a difference
depends on the implimentation
usually not
pretty easy to get a "good" dac
Pro tip, "audio grade" just means "not good enough for high frequency signals"
where do i get a good dac
Only place big price tags are really justified from a performance standpoint are loudspeakers and their amps because anything high power is expensive
just buy a high efficiency horn or some jbl thing lol
nobody needs to have a concert setup in their house do they
i heard some JBL4367's and they were fucking phenomenal
22k tho
I'm watching comfy's video on thrifting speakers and I'm kind of tempted to go out and find good speakers
passives
and buy an amp
No but if you want that more money actually means more good up to around the million dollar Mark
Also for dac pcm2904 is my new fave
Can you actually tell the difference past a certain point
with diminishing returns and all that
certain point of what
With loudspeakers yeah
price
what component are you talking about
Louder without distortion
yeah loudspeakers
oh just everything
yeah defo
hell you can even tell with good headphones, i was turning the orpheus up to like 110dB for moments and shit was still super clean
im not sure how but it was insane
god damn, how do your ears handle that
i'm not blacc and uaually i play things at a reasonable volume
hehe
i mean, im exxaggerating lol
i obviously didnt have a spl meter on me
but it was way past normal listening level
so like, any tips on thrift shopping old bookshelf speakers and shit?
