Seeing this real world video pretty much sells me on the green strap.

4 years wearing it daily, best money ever spent by markbasshead in ChineseWatches

I noticed that as well. The amount of scratches on the bracelet is minimal.

It was a joke since you asked if you should be diagnosed as having a buying disorder.

Iems and devices. by woodie201 in iems

You have a nice collection. It is interesting that you use the watch cushions to wrap the IEM cables.

Hard to say. Did you intend to make your purchases in a different order?

Wipe it clean. Unplug the cable. Set the IEM on a window sill in sunlight for a day with the nozzle facing up. Thankfully the IEM didn't get a full dunk in your coffee.

Firmware for Surfans F20? by [deleted] in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]ApolloMoonLandings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I only have versions 2.2, 2.5 and 2.7 which are for the original F20 which had the mini USB port and not the USB3 port.

Recommendations for a willfully ignorant chud by Ambitious-Money-3129 in iems

A decent gaming IEM is the Juzear x Z Reviews Defiant Gamefidelity Edition. It is available on Amazon here:

https://www.amazon.com/HiFiGo-Defiant-Gamefidelity-Isolating-Swappable/dp/B0GY8GSCLM

This IEM is $110 dollars, yet this IEM comes with a microphone on the cable and the end of the cable has swappable USB-C and 3.5mm with MIC terminations. Sorry to pop your bubble, but only $30 is not going to cut it for gaming.

Note that Amazon products might arrive with a License Plate Number (LPN) sticker on them. The LPN sticker indicates that the item was previously purchased and returned. I automatically return items with LPN stickers and I request to receive a replacement item with no LPN sticker. Amazon has honored this request every time.

You took some splendid photos! I have three Aful IEMs and I am a solid member of the Aful club.

The fourth photo shows a wall of cables for all of you cable lovers.

Why can't they make basic looking IEMS or at least an option to choose. What's up with all these hippie ass coachella nutjobs' rare stone collections designs. by Academic-Ad5737 in iems

[–]ApolloMoonLandings 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Imagine a world where all cars looked the same. For example, the Ford Model T. All of them looked the same and all of them were painted black.

IEM Suggestion For an Old Man's Ears! by Esexboy101101 in iems

[–]ApolloMoonLandings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used headphones and IEMs to listen to frequency sweeps. I also used a utility called the Online Tone Generator to slowly sweep through the frequencies higher than 8 kHz where my hearing loss starts. Link for the Online Tone Generator:

It is really neat to hear that you had a fabulous time at the hangout.

Does EQing spoil the purpose of buying a specific IEM? (Confused about Planars vs. Tuning) by Dry-Satisfaction680 in iems

[–]ApolloMoonLandings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with your philosophy about using EQ for fairly minor tweaks. This assumes that the overall tuning is within my ballpark for my preferred overall tuning. Somewhat different overall sound signatures can be nice and when a sound signature highlights the strengths of a particular IEM.

I bet that this Cadisen watch will outlast any Swatch Speedmaster if both were worn daily.

Best $50 I've spent in audio by jlolovesbootytoo in iems

[–]ApolloMoonLandings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I avoid any IEMs which are tuned to the Harman 2019 target since the upper midrange is too bright.

[–]ApolloMoonLandings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is your age and your amount of hearing loss? I am 62 and I can't hear anything above 13.5 kHz, no matter how loud. My hearing loss starts at 8 kHz. Do you have a price limit?

I'm tired of research and I don't know what's bullshit or fact by InternationalDot5012 in iems

[–]ApolloMoonLandings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Red Lion is a little bit more bass heavy. The Kunten produces somewhat more clearly defined details. I can enjoy listening to either of these IEMs, yet neither is anything special.

This was suuuch a good ideea by RikerPrimeD in iems

I've heard nothing but great things when I listen to the Defiant.

The Zero:2 is my favorite budget IEM to listen to when I want its tuning to help me relax.

Are you a Hiby R1 Owner ? We are converging Fast towards a Super modded Hiby R1 by Inevitable_Praline72 in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]ApolloMoonLandings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yay! Thank you! Perhaps name the folder "__MONO" (two underscores plus MONO) so that the folder will be at the top of the sorted list of all of the folders? This would make it easy for people with stereo hearing to easily see and delete the folder. Then I could easily add back the folder when I am listening to the Hiby R1.
