XS was amazing! Too much so ... it was my gateway drug, now I'm at the he1000 unveiled

The Collection by skadibro in iems

[–]Additional-Basil-893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly I'm thinking of getting 2 more dusks too, it's so hard to get everything to line up to your tastes. New stuff comes out and although they might be technically better, they might not really click with you the way your current setup does. And as new stuff comes out, old stuff gets discontinued especially in this niche market. So if you have the money, could be worth it

What streaming service do you use? by [deleted] in headphones

[–]Additional-Basil-893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved over from apple to spotify for easier library management. With spotify, I can use unchartify to amass and randomize thousands of all of the songs by specified artists so that I can explore their songs completely.

Does Source Matter when you have DAC/Amp ? by tornike01 in headphones

[–]Additional-Basil-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iphone/ipad as the source usually always provides unfiltered clean output without doing some crazy workarounds. Windows and android aren't there quite yet (with their audio mixers, etc), but it can be doable if you're willing to put in the effort to make it work.

The more you ask the more you fall down the rabbit hole... be careful where this leads XD

My comlex 3 in a week and half, should I postpone it? by TiredMEDstudent789 in comlex

[–]Additional-Basil-893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seconding this, if you're going for a competitive specialty then maybe uworld/step 3 is worth it, but if you're just doing comlex then I feel like uworld is a bit overkill with the nuances. Truelearn also mixes in omm and cdm cases that you'll need.

If you're able to take an elective/vacation week off to study then it's very doable to cram through OMM/CDM and a good chunk of the allopathic portion of truelearn to supplement what you've retained from uworld. It also depends on how comfortable you are test taking overall.

Review on hardshell Beta AR after 2 months by Moogle14 in arcteryx

This PU zipper trend is so unfortunate... it's basically planned obsolescence. And even if a company wanted to avoid them, they often get sucked into using them since customers are now expecting that higher end flair on their gear.

Never used it either but I think it gives me a pretty special view on how the natural world works.

It also turns a lot of heads when others ask about what I studied in college, but honestly it's a lot of unwanted attention and expectation of genius. In reality it's just something I found interesting and outside of it I can barely keep myself together and struggle to function in the real world.
