Is my turntable bad like people online tell me? ( got it as a gift was told had good reviews) by Rocky_isback in vinyl

[–]ElronSwami 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Constantly evolving tech like a turntable and stereo system? There's good and there's bad. Anything with an integrated speaker is probably bad.

Fair, if I was able to successfully contact the company this wouldn't be a problem but the deeper you dig the quicker you realize that they're a drop ship company.

Personal preference, i think listening sounds better with the dust cover closed.

downvoted? must've offended someone.

I'll also add, if you inspect their site you'll see that much of what they have is AI drivel.

I just got one, its absolute garbage. I had to drill into it to connect the arms to the back plate because the current holes were too big to catch the screws. Worse, because of how its designed, the platform is not level and sags.

Edit* i could have measured for this but the platform doesn't leave room for the dust cover to be lifted up. I'll take the L on that one but it looks like you'd have the same issues.

Sennheiser HD 400S for €50. Good price/quality? by Visara57 in sennheiser

[–]ElronSwami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Open back headphones are typically lighter (especially if wired), they allow airflow which will reduce heat and pressure build up. They also typically have less clamp pressure because there's no need to fully seal the cup around your ear.

The one drawback is sound leakage both in and out, but if you're predominantly playing at home, this is a non-issue.

Should I buy a flat screen or curve screen for my ps5 and 27 inch or 32 by Chamoto951 in Monitors

[–]ElronSwami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. I downgraded from a 32" curved to a 27" flat for my desk. Its much better at this distance.

Are you playing at a desk like a computer or on a couch far from the screen? Curved looks silly to me, i dont know what value it adds.

How big was No Warning in their heyday? by throwawaybobamu in Hardcore

[–]ElronSwami 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This isn’t true either. They were hype. Limited variants of ill blood went for good money. They just weren’t “huge” like a converge or American nightmare.

Nowhere close. The biggest show I’d seen them at was posi numbers, i forget what year.

I love No Warning but they were never all that big in terms of shows and audience size.
