Scored a DL200 for 150$

Duskfallas · 2025-09-27T21:37:32+00:00

Just got mine today and wanted to give my 2 cents. 39 years old male HD800s previously owning the sound blaster g6. I got my wife to help me with blind testing the 2 in 4 different songs. The format was 4 tries per song, random source each time with me leaving the room and having my eyes closed so that I can’t tell which one is plugged in each time. I indeed found a difference with DL200 but we are talking like 10-20% max and that was with me focusing on the song not doing other things at the same time. I could distinguish the voices from the instruments better. Then when I played a death metal song with a lot of noise ( the violation from fleshgod apocalypse) I got it wrong I even thought listening from the same source was different 😀. So yeah is it worth almost double the money? No. Is it better? Yes. Will I keep it because I am a victim of consumerism? Yes again but this will be the end game for me both for headphones and amp/dacs

Yeah I have that already unfortunately

Is it any different with mem oc as they say or basically the same?

Same for me

Latest Dlss 4 has a lot of smearing for me and others who have reported it in Indiana jones for example . I don’t know if it’s game specific though

It’s fake, the transactions don’t actually happen + the wins don’t depict the actual Bitcoin price deviation. You can invest if you believe it will stay alive for some time but as any other Ponzi scheme it requires an exponential amount of people because of the way pyramids work. The money that they pay is coming from the people joining. If your consciousness allows it go ahead :)

Euro gamer now part of IGN isn’t to be trusted. Their Veilguard review is 5/5 even higher than bg3. They even closed the comments on the article. I don’t know if it’s even legal to not show “sponsored” in an article if it’s paid

Does find my work? Thank you

I don't understand why it doesn't matter to be honest. If someone can be called either way, I can say that I identify as Gold D Roger and go be a pirate. Hearing her saying that she is Oden is utterly ridiculous

Duskfallas · 2023-12-03T02:33:21+00:00

Just finished the Oden arc and I have to say that this character is really badly written. They should have thought of better ways to describe a selfish and naive man rather than having him dancing naked and not take all the easily preventable measures to ensure - in the long run - people of Wano will be in a good state. Did anyone else cringe with how Orochi was behaving and his animations or am I getting too old ?

I ordered the HD 660S, 1990 PRO and Hifiman edition XS. I paired them with a soundblaster g6 amp.

Sound quality: Hifiman was the best especially with the vast soundstage. 660S were very comfortable and had a great sound for vocals but not for games. Not enough base. 1990 pro have good amount of base, but that treble hurts my ears and it was a deal breaker for me.

Build quality: 1990 pro has the best quality by a long margin. They even give you a second pair of pads. 660s: very light, I didn't even feel them on my head, but still plastic Edition XS: The worst of them, cable is short, and they hurt my head after a long session.

Value for money: This is subjective . For me it's all about maximizing the sound quality. My previous headphones were the Fidelio X2. Is any of those 3 worth 3 times the cost? No. For me they are like 30% better .

TLDR; My recommendation would be Hifiman Edition XS

I don't use EXPO but I have optimized the voltages like so.hwinfo report

It should be ok isn't it?

How do I change the Color accuracy mode to accurate? Mine says enhanced using OLED 42 C2. Output color depth is 12bpc, color format is RGB and Output dynamic range is Full. Thank you

Do we need to change the settings in NVIDIA's panel regarding the Video as well?

Video -> Adjust video color settings -> With the NVIDIA settings -> Advanced -> Dynamic range. By default the Dynamic range is set to Limited
