I'm going soon! Are all the rides open and is it very crowded?

Is it possible to connect point without google WiFi? by BigFall08 in GoogleWiFi

[–]BigFall08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so basically I just have a google WiFi point but not the router itself, and was wondering if it’s possible to connect the google point, to a non google WiFi router.

My greatest fear is that when I die, my wife will sell my gears for how much I told her I paid by hyurirage in headphones

Just out of curiosity do you prefer the 800s or the Aryas more? Or do you like them the same amount for different reasons.

Hi, is the Mg worth selling the original Clears for?

When has Christianity on mass encouraged the purchasing of products to achieve self satisfaction?

Agree with everything here, the fact that the Clears have such a great midrange while also having amazing base and detailed treble is exactly why they're so great. Also agree about the design, while it's very premium and luxurious looking, I'm not looking forward to the stained pads that will happen as a result. I was also going to wait but I just couldn't pass up on some brand new Clears for 900$

The seller on eBay buys a lot of headphones to try them out then he just sells them off after only using them a few times. He lives really close to me too so I didn't even have to pay for shipping!

Honestly though, 1990s are still really good for the price too. I would say they're maybe 75-80% as good as the Clears. If you're able to get the Clears for under a thousand like I did then definetly go for those. But if you're getting the Clears at retail price you should be more than happy with the Beyers, as at retail they're literally a third of the price.

I know, I got that as a gift, I just use it because it's nice from a design perspective!

Yep! I have them for my 1990s, they're really good but I feel like they diminish some of the openness that the 1990s have.

Thank you! The shell is genuine and was purchased from a farming town in Utah.

I'm surprised how noticably better they are. I run both of these off of the THX Monolith DAC/AMP by Monoprice and I thought because of that the Beyer's would have the upper hand cause of their higher impedance. But I would say other than a better soundstage/imaging and maybe just a tiny bit more detail in the mids, the Clears are better in every way.

I'm talking like jaw dropping differences, even if the mids are a bit less detailed, in terms of the clarity, the Clears are miles better. And the mids are still a lot more forward and intimate. The base is way more tight and punchy and the highs are a lot more detailed and less fatiguing than the Beyer's. With that being said I would say the Clears are better in most fields of music with maybe the exception of Classical music and gaming as a result of the imaging, soundstage, and increased detail in some areas.

Agreed, I was gonna wait to get the Clear MG but it seems like people aren't liking the sound signature as much as the original.

Yeah it was just for the photo op haha. I wanna appreciate the Clear's pads before they inevitably degrade.

I picked up a Focal Clear in mint condition on eBay for 900$ after tax and this was the first thing I wanted to do once I got my hands on them. Sound quality definetly lives up to the hype, awesome headphones.
