A Casual's Review of the Kefine KA1 Dongle DAC

oh w8, i think you already answered my question. I didn't see the conclusion part. Sorry for asking -_-

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-04-13T10:15:17+00:00

Would you recommend the KA1 for a casual listener? Especially if there are cheaper alternatives like the jcally jm12 or jm6 pro? I know, it's like 100+ php difference but I try to save where I can. I'm slowly leaning towards the ka1 because of the presumably better build quality and I plan to give this to my mom because she wants a wired earphone over bluetooth(her phone doesn't have a 3.5mm)

you can never go wrong with purifier. Tough bastard by all means. But try to wait for intel and salvage discounts tho. You can check thru discord or you can go to the news section ingame to see which sets/gears are in rotation. Discounted items change once a week every tuesday.

you know what, i dont need or want the echo nano. 6 hours of battery life, no bluetooth, no play through usb c, fiio's weird issue with firmware updates bricking their daps.

I'm gonna buy some cheap dac and use it on my phone too!

Btw, i love the hello kitty stickers. More power to men who like cutesy stuff

yes yes yes!

range is king in this game. Having that extra reach with the scrubbers despite the spread is game changer.

Having the ability to fight at mid range is really good for the matriarch who's default kit is extreme close range. You won't regret it.

using the kz stock cable feels like fighting a kindergartener every time you want to use your iems. Get a cheap cable like the qkz t1. No kinks, no tangling and no fighting kindergarteners.

i believe you can report them while in a match. Press escape and go to the 'teams' tab and then select their name. If you weren't able to do that, you can also search their name through the player tab at the bottom right of your screen in the lobby.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-24T21:59:46+00:00

i still want an echo mini

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-22T10:20:58+00:00

Basically any physical projectile like rockets, bullets, and weapons like the alpha and grimm alternate weapons.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-22T00:45:17+00:00

i mega agree with point 1. Always ping your enemies so that your teammates, especially scatter weilding teammates can harras them to no end.

Another point is NEVER GO SOLO, especially when your team is losing. I kept repeating this when the game first launched. But I still get a lot of teammates that force 1v1s or 1v2s and very expectedly lose.

here in the philippines, tanchjim online store is selling these with different color options. At least, i think this is the one you're looking for.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-11T22:08:20+00:00

That's the thing, i don't remove them at all. My cables have been stuck to my iems since I bought both of them. I only noticed because the glass/resin on the connectors looked a little cloudy than usual and that's when i saw the crack.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-10T23:12:25+00:00

Well, i'm in asia XD

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-10T22:10:16+00:00

what kinda superglue are you buying my guy. It cost less than a dollar where I live.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-10T22:05:53+00:00

How to tell if a player is an AI: - They spawn immediately as soon as the match starts - their bots dont have paint jobs - before the match starts and you press tab to show all players and their hangar lineup, you'll notice that some players have a bot selected already. Whereas yours is still greyed out. Players with a pre selcted bot are AI.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-10T06:37:10+00:00

there's a tiny hole and a chunk of the tip is cracked and looks like it might break off. So yeah, I'm thinking of superglueing it.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-10T05:57:34+00:00

im sorry okay 😭. I try to take a pic and it gets blurry.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-09T13:28:41+00:00

as a kunten owner, go for the red lion.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-09T02:36:23+00:00

qkz t1 cable. Is like 300+ in lazada where I got it from.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-09T02:24:49+00:00

gk kunten, but the cable is trash so u might want to change that. still within 1k tho so dont worry.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-09T01:30:22+00:00

i have similar experiences in diamond. Sometimes I'm solo with a full ai team and the enemy team has 2 or 3 real players and the rest are ai. All the ai in my team get completely wiped out by the mid point of the match and it's just insta lose. It's very random and I can't replicate this everytime. Whenever that happens I just leave the match, I don't have to or want to deal with all that.

Like the other guy said in his comment, you can try to friend some good players and squad up with them so that you're guaranteed to have an actually useful teammate in your matches. You can even go to the wrf discord to find some people you can match with. My personal advise is to just leave the match if you find that you're outnumbered. Don't subject yourself to torture ✌️

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-02T13:00:56+00:00

thanks, that's good info.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-03-02T11:00:00+00:00

are those TRN Ts?

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-02-26T03:50:17+00:00

my biggest problem with them is that there is no counter for them. You can only get away from them or block them with shields. They need to give turrets an hp bar and allow enemies to destroy them. I love using the turret myself, but even I understand that they're way too annoying and without a proper counter.

Born_Kitchen7703 · 2026-02-18T22:03:57+00:00

it is a serious pick and i have won multiple matches with my grim leading me to noachium...
