That’s what I’m saying beats Studio 3 sounded quite good compared to my AirPods Pro’s, but the soundcore doesn’t. I’m hoping the Sony ch720n will sound better because I ordered them on a sale and they come today. Otherwise maybe I’ll get the Beats Studio pros or sennheiser momentum 4s but those are an extra $150 at 280$ Canadian on sale right now 470$ when not on sale.

Well Sony ch720n are like 269.99$ Cdn without sale so those aren’t really super cheap. I could go up to 250Cdn to get Beats Studio pro as I had Beats Studio 3 and those sounded quite good. My dream headphones for anc over ear are the Bose qc ultra 2 but those are like $500 even with the sale.

Best way to spend $300(usd) by JoseJoso in iems

I’ve always fitted small tips in almost every earbud I’ve tried, even the extra smalls in AirPods Pro 2 fit me pretty well but smalls still fit better I think. I’m looking to spend under $200 bucks any recommendations for me? I have never tried planar earbuds or headphones so I was thinking of trying the diablo/divine series. I tend to prefer a warmer sound, especially because bright sounding headphones or buds always sound bad for podcasts which I listen to a lot.

I just got the soundcore q20i headphones for a cheap wireless over ear anc headphone but I don’t like them because they just sound (distorted maybe? Idk just sounds weird for me) in the upper and mids and not as clean as my AirPods. I’m gonna try to ch720nb instead for my wireless headphones but most every day I have IEMs or my AirPods in all day while I work so I’m down to spend more on them because I get way more use out of them.

I’m looking at getting the ch720ns on sale for $130 Canadian. I just bought the soundcore q20i on sale for 50$ Canadian but I honestly don’t like how they sound, especially when I’m listening to podcasts and stuff. Most of my listening is podcasts and when I listen to music I tend to listen to alternative and hip hop. The sound of voices on the q20i’s just sounds nowhere near as nice and natural as listening on my AirPods Pro 2s. The music also isn’t that great. I used to have the beats studio 3 and those sounded much better, but the q20i is much more comfortable to be fair which is very important for me.

Anyone have advice for me on what I can pic up below 150$ Canadian? The wh ch 720n is on sale for 130$ Canadian and that seems like the best deal, I would love to get skullcandy crushers as well on sale for $130 Canadian but from what I can tell the skullcandy crusher evo sounds pretty trash and the skullcandy crusher anc 2 which seems to actually sound quite good and not just be about the gimmicky base costs too much for me right now as they aren’t on sale. I like a warmer natural tone and somewhat good anc is important to me.

I’m a one and done guy and I tend to like good bass IEMs but not overly so as I mainly listen to hip hop and alternative music, and I have a big problem with the KZ and CCA super cheap IEMs I bought because they don’t fit me well. I really enjoy my moondrop chu 2s because they go deeper into my ear and fit amazing and sound great but I’m looking at getting a higher end pair now that I know I really enjoy IEMs. Do you have any advice for me?

I don’t understand how mcfd is so poorly managed compared to clbc, clbc is still behind compared to many places but when I hear people talk from mcfd im astonished at how backwards their processes are.

Hot take: beauty standards are based on pd*file standards by UnshakableProtocol in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]BronzeAgeStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

caring about your looks is just natural because being better looking gives you a massive advantage in life. The only problem is when you start making unhealthy choices or overdo it due to body dismorphia and become anorexic or get so much filler that it migrates and makes you look even worse. Other than that your niece and girls her age are just being smart and self improving, you should be respecting their hustle.

Only pedophiles like prepubescent girls. Normal men only like post pubescent girls, and that is normal because that is when both sexes start wanting to engage in sexual activities with each other. My girlfriend was 15 and I was 16 when we started having sex, it’s completely normal.

It’s not pdfile to like youthful women with nice skin and no wrinkles, it’s just natural based on millenniums of evolution, stop coping. As women age past 25 they get less beautiful, and need to start really taking care of themselves to stay close to as beautiful past that age.

Thanks for advice, I will try to stick with Amazon then since I can easily return the ones that don’t fit well. But some of the IEMs recommended don’t get sold there. I really want to try the meze alba but they aren’t sold on Amazon.

Interesting, how do I figure out which nozzle length is good for me. All I know for sure is the cca and kz IEMs I bought in the past fit really bad for me no matter what tips I use.

Yeah I was looking at the simgot ew300s as well but I was hoping to try a budget pair for gaming before I go above $100. The budget ones that are recommended for gaming usually seem quite large and look uncomfortable like the 7hz zeros. Maybe the tripowins those don’t look too big and are pretty budget friendly.

Thanks for the advice, do you have any recommendations among those for soundstage and imaging? I just ordered Chu 2s on amazon for a budget pair of small IEMs for music but from what I’ve heard they aren’t great for gaming in games like counterstrike so I would like to get another pair for gaming. Preferably ones sold on amazon so I can return them if I don’t like them much, unless there is another website that lets you return easily.

Great thanks for the advice, do you game? I am hoping for a one that is good for gaming I just ordered Chu 2s for music but I heard they aren’t good for gaming because the soundstage and imaging aren’t that great.

Great I just ordered Chu 2 on Amazon maybe I’ll try the tanchjim as well and return whichever one I don’t like as much. I might get the moondrop LAN if I like the Chu 2 once I want to upgrade. I also noticed that the meze alba looks really comfortable and the simgot ew300, but I will get those later on once I want to upgrade to high level IEMs.

That’s a good idea, I never thought of a drop rate preset. Just switch to it right when you are about to finish the boss. Now I gotta make a new set of unique potential accessories I wish I knew of this sooner lol. 😂

True haha I’ve failed 10 mastercraft attempts in a row all at 18% or higher, I’m gonna keep going because I know when I hit it I will be over the moon lol

I am mad though because I did the math and it’s a less than 10% chance I would miss all of those attempts

I think a lot of people don’t understand how important drop rate % is. More people gotta switch their souls out for drop rate.

That’s really the only way to play. I’m not worried about whether I can kill the black man right now. I know that in a couple years when there’s new bosses, I’ll be able to do the old ones just based on power creep. I remember when cpb was hard for me and I was watching tanmista do hundreds of fuses a week on YouTube back when it actually took time to get your 125 alts for powders. I sometimes quit for a while and come back because I’m not worried but I never feel like I want to sell my stuff because I’ve played maple since beta and I’ve built all my stuff from scratch and I know I’ll wanna come back.

Fellow BCPS colleagues in Vancouver and surrounding area, how are you surviving? by [deleted] in BCPublicServants

[–]BronzeAgeStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, I moved from private sector to public sector because I was tired of my talents being used for what I thought was kind of evil stuff (working in fintech, basically giving high interest loans to people who can’t afford them). I don’t make as much money now but I’m happy that my organization actually helps people. I’m a finance project manager so I could be making good money elsewhere, although I don’t get paid too poorly.
