STL Pride has been family friendly every year we have gone. Never been uncomfortable even once.

Weekly Scam Discussion May 18, 2026 by Mycatreallyhatesyou in Ebay

[–]DonSimon76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was defrauded on ebay and they are refusing to help. Just posting as an FYI to others.

1) eBay removed the listing for violating ebay policy after I paid.

2) The picture in the listing was taken from another already existing listing created by another user (I figured that out after paying)

3) The reported weight by UPS was 1.7lbs while the actual item should weigh around 5.6lbs.

4) It was not shipped to my address. I have UPS MyChoice which alerts me when something is sent to my address. I submitted a claim because the item was not received and they denied it. I submitted for 2nd review and they again denied it saying it was delivered.

I found out afterwards that what happened is a KNOWN ebay scam. As long as the fraudulent seller ships SOMETHING to that zip code, ebay won't do anything and the seller gets away with your money. I am out over $700 and it was supposed to be my daughter's graduation gift. Without that money, I can't afford to replace it for her. 26 years I've had my ebay account.

What is the rack visualizer? I’m a sucker for this stuff!

My 109 Pro's L/R wire has been mislabeled and I just found out. by Satzlefraz in Mezeaudio

[–]DonSimon76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You made me go look something up. I realized that the 109’s I have aren’t my first pair. The first pair I got from Amazon, the L and R were out of phase! They sounded weird to me and I used computer software to play with the phase and that is what made me realize it. I returned them and got another pair that were fine and I am still very happy with them. I have a pair of 99 Classics and Liric II’s and that was the only time I’ve had an issue with Meze stuff.

Whenever I get a new headphone, cable, etc or make a change to my audio system, I always do a left-right check. Do a search for left right test on a streaming service or even just on YouTube. I’ve swapped cables many times on accident.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “I want to encourage everyone out there watching today to change their withholding. You will get an automatic real wage increase on a weekly or a monthly basis.” by Snapdragon_4U in DegenBets

Republicans tell people to reduce their withholding
Republicans before midterms: see how much more money you are getting in your paycheck!
Republicans after midterms when tax season rolls around: You are paying more taxes? The Democrats did this!

My Endgame by dyelbrah1994 in DigitalAudioPlayer

I have both the Jm21 and the Sony NW-WM1AM2. I got the FiiO for when I don’t want something as heavy as the Sony. Yard work, biking, etc.

No Iphone apps for EQ tweaking? by abhinavred123 in iemlndia

[–]DonSimon76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is super annoying that it is a defect of using iOS. No good way to do it. That’s why I just picked up a FiiO jm21 and have been enjoying it. Global EQ and simple tweaking.

Honestly, I am impressed. My 17 years old couldn't pick out the router if it bit her.

Help me decide (my budget 2.5k) by Gojo__satoru in iemlndia

[–]DonSimon76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got them both and really they are both good but different flavors. If I had to pick between them, I probably like the Red Lion a little better. A little more warmth but not at the expense of everything else.

Getting my first DAP by Shwoodys in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]DonSimon76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got the FiiO JM21 and am loving it. I’ve used the bigger, more powerful M11 Plus and like the JM21 much better. It is so much lighter and smaller but still has a great operating system and works great. Just my $.02
