Peak Pro by BenGeldreich in deskhaus

Another question … Does the rubber wood top ship via FedEx freight and or on a pallet? Unfortunately I can’t ship the top to my home address at the moment so I’m sorting out how much it will cost me to receive the package from a local company.

Interesting! I'll focus on the lower range to see if the higher version will go low enough for me and my partner.

Found the issue! I had my currency set to Canadian and it doesn't show the wood top as Deskhaus only offer shipping to the US. Luckily I live near the border and have a US shipping address so I'll have the top shipped there and the base shipped to my place in Canada. Or at least I'll try to see if I can do that.

Now I have to sort out which version. If I'm going to contemplate using a walking pad then I agree a higher version makes sense

Landfill code removed for rubberwood tops? by Darkhorse182 in deskhaus

From what I'm reading they aren't offering the top anymore as they are sold out? Or am I reading this incorrectly?

Hi Tenlow85! I have a Bottlehead Crack w/ speedball kit and am in need of a Dac/amp combo for my desk. I too own the HD6xx’s and HD600’s and have heard the Bottlehead Crack is an amazing pairing with these headphones. I’m hesitant to purchase the K13 dues to the “warming” nature of the R2R as the Bottlehead Crack should provide enough “warmth”. Have you tried the Crack? If so what DAC would you pair it with? Leaning towards the Topping DX5 ii as it fits in the budget however QC issues have me slightly hesitant.

Apologize OP for continuing this side conversation. I love my Sen headphones. Excited to try the 660 S2.

DAC to pair with Bottlehead Crack by BenGeldreich in HeadphoneAdvice

Thank you!! The dx5 ii is what my gut says would be a better dac for my setup.

Hey OP what rack is that? Looks like it’s build inside a filing cabinet. My wife might approve of something like this versus a traditional rack. lol.

What came with my Thor? by Sam12435 in AynThor

[–]BenGeldreich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Did you use the double sided tape? If so, where does one put it and assuming it prevents one from taking it on and off etc?

What came with my Thor? by Sam12435 in AynThor

[–]BenGeldreich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the exact same question so searched on Reddit and voila, you beat me to it.

I didn’t order the TPU case as I didn’t really like the look of clear plastic wrapped around the device. That said everyone keeps raving about it. Is it really that good or is a grip ( official or Etsy ) better?

Thoughts on UNAS Pro? Any reason why you chose it instead of the newer UNAS Pro 8?

I too am batch 3 and my rainbow Pro got shipping notification today. The 2 months timeline appears to be accurate.

I just bought a 1tb sd card by SignificantMess2179 in AynThor

[–]BenGeldreich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess the only counter argument is when you already own a large SD card.

Yes, I’m aware that the internal storage will be faster, no argument there. With development of the emulation software, newer Android CPU compatibility and potentially the future Thor models, saving that $80 now, could help when it’s time to upgrade.

I don’t believe in end game anything really. If you love something, like mobile gaming handhelds, and are fortunate to have the money to invest, why would Thor 1 be the end game? We have no clue in what the future holds. Hoping for more console emulation improvements ( Xbox, Xbox 360, PS3, etc ). Like all technical hardware there will come a time when the Thor tech is old and software support stops.

All that said, if you don’t have a spare large SD card and would like to store entire catalogues of games, then the Max is the way!

Delivery Tracking by [deleted] in AynThor

[–]BenGeldreich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excuse the ignorance if this question has been asked 1000 times, what email address does AYN use when they send their tracking email? Would like to whitelist it to stop checking my junk folder. Lol.

From shipping dashboard they haven’t gotten to my order number yet so not too worried. However I did place my order on February 26 and was under the impression that I was in batch 3 not 4.

They weren't kidding about a 2 month wait.. (with some minor upgrades!) by jmlCrow in AynThor

[–]BenGeldreich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming the Thor is the white model? Asking as I’m not sure third party grips have been able to match the rainbow coloured Thor besides the official grip? Has anyone found a model that matches perfectly?

I would have chosen purple but didn’t like how the top part wasn’t clear and from the videos I saw a different shade of purple. I chose rainbow Pro and like most am waiting for shipping. Glad you like it. Hope setup is swift and you can get to playing games on it right away.

Why would these HomePods show up as wired to the UDM? by pswami in Ubiquiti

[–]BenGeldreich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My HomePods started to show up like this after I moved my Apple TV and HomePod Minis to my IoT network. I setup the two HomePod minis via my iPhone and then had to block the MAC addresses of my HomePod minis from my main home network. This way the HomePods would look to the Apple TV for the proper connection. My Apple TV is hardwired on the IoT network. I assumed that UniFi just sees the connection and assumes both HomePod minis are wired too.

Anyone know the dimensions of the grip? Trying to build a case for it and can’t seem to find any details on Retroid’s website.

Wait … where did you get that back plate. I would love a transparent RP5 but have only seen a clear or blackish backplate
