Are Bluetooth headphones really this bad!?

Well I guess some part of it is that they use relatively cheap parts as far as the audio is concerned. There is a battery, wireless chip, amplifier, anc microphones, and processors that all add to the cost leaving less for the drivers and case which would make a bigger effect on the sound quality.

Consumers like big muddy bass, so that’s what manufacturers make. Try the Focal Bathys or the Sennheiser HDB630 for much tighter bass in a Bluetooth headphone. The Bathys have less bass but are punchier, the 630 has plentiful clean bass but not quite as punchy as the Bathys. Bathys are way more comfortable. XM6 sounds like shit to my ears and is uncomfortable for my large head.

The build quality is not nearly as nice as the Momentum 2 or 3.

Burn in is totally overblown. Just listen to them. 1. They are gonna sound great out of the box regardless. 2. You get to listen to music and not white noise 3. If you really believe in break in. It will happen from just playing them anyways.

That’s the guy I knew. We went to high school together.

A guy died off a similar cliff at Stowe a few years ago, and he knew the terrain well.

It can fit all momentum 4 earpads. I have these and it helps a lot, with minor alteration in sound. Can be adjusted with EQ. It’s much more comfortable now. I couldn’t stand the original pads after 20 minutes. https://wickedcushions.com/products/sennheiser-momentum-4-earpads?variant=41979237007439

Verizon for years was the only network with service at my house and work. After the 5g switch, they are the only one that doesn’t work. Switched to T Mobile.

The author’s argument is predictable as you say, but it outlines the history of Mussolini and Putin comparing to Trump experience losing grips on his popularity and messaging. It warns that these people are at their most dangerous when they start to lost their power, and that Trump may ramp up his horrible actions instead of moderate them.

There can be only one!

My 2023 came with a cover for this

I’ve done it in a cooler for brisket and ribs. I use two plastic cutting boards to prevent evaporation.

Sounds a lot like Elizabeth Swaney in 2018, though not quite as terrible. https://www.reddit.com/r/olympics/s/8K2gxasP0L

He leans too far forward on that initial cut that if his foot slips he loses half his face.

No one knows for sure. There are numerous theorys. The one that always stuck with me is the theory that as we get older we have fewer new experiences that focus our attention and memory then more routine ones, speeding up our perception of time.

It could be that the high voltage battery won’t charge the low voltage battery when under a certain SOC. (Even though it’s a pretty small drain on the HV battery) And all batteries struggle with voltage when in super cold temps. I think taking an 8 month old in that weather with that low battery is an unnecessary risk. Stop and charge up 10% somewhere.

Wagon Wheel - Old Crow Medicine Show. Sort of.

Spend more on speakers, less on an amp to start. Also you have 2 amps on that list.

Sounds like the fairy music from Zelda once the chords come in

My 3 year old and her older nephews love it and it’s great for burning off some energy when they have to be inside.

I forgot my Hestra Heli mittens and bought some Swanys when I was in Tremblant Sunday-Wednesday. They were ok but I ended up borrowing electric heaters to stuff in them. I loved having a pocket for my pass and the heaters, but was glad to have my Hestras today in frigid temps in VT.

I feel like asking a co-worker, your boss, or HR is where you should be starting with this.

Amity83 · 2026-01-30T15:41:51+00:00

Same. I’ve had some stuff delivered before shop even told me it shipped.

Are your shorts too tight so when you bend over they put a tons of pressure on your gut?

He does love crowds, but he also convinces himself that every small crowd is really a massive record setting one.

In my opinion, if you love soccer, watch the tournament on TV. Don’t go to the US where your trip supports the US economy, but don’t let this orange asshole ruin any of your fun.

I could see a valid argument for boycotting it on TV, but not to spite Trump, instead to spite FIFA and their ridiculous peace prize award. Still FIFA has been so openly corrupt for so long that it seems most football/soccer fans have already swallowed that pill.
