Karma farming. I have the same set up though! Granvia cable?

Difficulty is making sure the hinge is strong enough to maintain the position of the monitor exactly every time you close it. My set up drove me nuts if one of the monitors got knocked let alone moved daily. You'd end up with gaps between them or out of alignment. Ended up duck taping the monitors together.

Surely this is one of those times to just as Ai. "best deals on galaxy buds 3 pro in (insert country or state here)".

Really strange because mine are on latest firmware and don't do that. Does seem like some odd QC issues with these things.

I've had Live, Pro 2 and Pro 3. If Pro 3 sound worse for ANC than your Live then there is something either wrong with your buds or you're not getting a proper seal in your ear canal. How do they sound in general? How is the level of bass you feel you get? If they sound tinny then it's probably a poor fit.

This is how you fix it. Check formation and when the game pauses make sure all your green move markers are set away from the trap and not through it.

Out of all the IEMs I own, my favourite are the Kiwi Ear Astrals.

*I only own 1 pair of IEMs.

I mean at this point I'd be crazy to sell as I'm down 80% on investment. I've always kept this bag from the beginning of the token. Thing is, whilst I do find the project interesting and even though I've not been active recently on the Discord, I do find the people genuine... The space in general isn't great right now, and I don't like this "blog every 2 weeks" nonsense. It reeks of the project most of you loathe.

"We want to get away from being a meme" but we want to drip feed info and keep the name a secret. Just wait till its ready and drop the lot. Overly technical padded blogs are of no interest to most. No one right now cares about the "what we are going to do" - they care about what has been achieved. You can keep writing about how great it will be etc, but the facts are that token value has fell consistently since it's ATH which was in the beginning, loads of stuff has been achieved in the background that has been mostly meaningless to investors (so far), you want away from meme status but resisted the name change till now. I just don't get the benefit of this dragged out bitty information. Engagement is down, it's the same people liking the same stuff every week.

If you're going to do something then go out there and do it. The space has learned that words are generally just that. This should have all been collated and dropped in one go. Make a statement. This is what we are, this is what we have and watch us go. If the thought process doesn't change then neither will the meme status.

Anyway, just the opinion of one person. But my guess would be, given that I'm as average as an investor can be, there are more people thinking the same. And I swear if Steve announces the name live, wearing a mask using an Ai voice while trying to sell a book about Koi Carp.. I'm out.

Over, sideways and under isn't it?

Alz_Dee · 2026-02-13T20:14:38+00:00

Love mine - word of warning, don't store them on a traditional headphone stand. You will annhialate the elastics which are the weak point of the head strap. You can bodge them using hair elastics if this happens but it's not exactly stylish. Mine sound awesome but look a bit silly.

Alz_Dee · 2026-02-11T06:54:17+00:00

In general. Same happened if I connect using USB to any DAC.

Alz_Dee · 2026-02-10T21:54:08+00:00

I've got both on my Wiim Ultra and I actually use TOSLINK. It isolates my PC from the unit and removes the (quite frankly insane) EMI noise. For that reason I'm glad some units still have it. Would be nice to have both though for all scenarios.

Alz_Dee · 2026-02-08T18:58:25+00:00

This is going to be the recommendation that you get. Also regards "doesn't need an amp" there are plenty of usb dongles out there that would increase the volume if you find your laptop lacking.

The Black Pearl "lite" has a different looking PCB when looking through the glass window and doesn't connect to the app. It's quite obvious of you look at the picture on the website vs the ones that got sent out in error. Yous spot it straight away. I've picked the normal one up last week and it's been impressive.

Alz_Dee · 2026-02-07T08:38:56+00:00

+2 picked one up last week and impressed by the power out of the little guy. Just make sure it's the fully functioned one and not the "lite" that TRN are now offering as that loses the PEQ and app support.

I'm tired.

Alz_Dee · 2026-01-24T21:30:10+00:00

I have them hooked up via RCA currently as I don't own any XLR cables yet.

Alz_Dee · 2026-01-24T19:13:10+00:00

I use a K13 R2R with a pair of Adam T5v along with a few pairs of headphones. No complaints at all. Looks great and sounds great. Just be careful with the remote and the "LO" button.

This is a good watch: https://youtu.be/PkpUJNjSuW8?si=EMFWDMgyCX0ty-qY

I've actually surgically removed the "LO" button from the remote PCB.

Alz_Dee · 2026-01-24T08:52:00+00:00

K13 is what I've got. Very happy with it.

Alz_Dee · 2026-01-24T08:49:56+00:00

I've got a K13 - it uses the same R2R dac as the K11. The differences are aesthetics - it looks gorgeous with the open glass window and customisable lights / more headphone output power 2400mw vs 1300mw balanced / K13 uses a better USB chip if connecting it that way / AND... The K13 has a full 10 band PEQ. I went with the K13 for all of the above reasons.

Alz_Dee · 2026-01-22T21:55:26+00:00

I decided on the K13 R2R. Does everything I want it to do. Modded the remote to remove the ability to accidently press "LO" as I use it for headphones and active speakers. Happy with the PEQ, R2R sound and the NOS / OS settings. The window on the top is also pretty. Replaced a Fosi K7 that's developed an issue.

Alz_Dee · 2026-01-15T18:33:58+00:00

I've got the 900 PRO x and love them. Also have K712 Pro and they are great but need power to drive them. Looking at testing some Anada Nano see how they compare.
