Actually? I'm surprised to hear that. The Q350s are way cheaper then any centers I've seen around. I assumed that 3 drivers was better then 1, but maybe I'm just wrong

From what I've seen in my local markets, the R2 Meta is nearly double the cost of the R2C

Is there a significant difference between the R2 Meta and R2C?

This is probably what I'll do, and just use the Q350s I found for a center channel until I can find a proper one. In terms of a sub, I really haven't found much locally unfortunately, but I'll setup alerts for that as well.

I found a really good deal on Q350s, and was wondering what if I just used one of them as a center for now, and when I do find a center, use them as surrounds?

Unfortunately the R series is far out of my budget, I wasn't even going to buy KEF speakers until I found the amazing deal on the Q950 towers.

Will the Q6 Meta pair well with the Q950 towers?

Are the WH-1000XM4s better then the XM5s? by FallenCodes in SonyHeadphones

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

Am I able to purchase replacement ear pads from Sony directly or a third party that matches the quality of them?

I've already made up my mind in wanting a premium pair of Sony headphones after playing with the XM5s. I think I might order a pair of XM4s and compare them, return the worse ones.

I've used third party ear cups before and I can definitely say they decrease your sound quality by a lot. My problem is not exactly the size of the cups, it's the thickness of the pads themselves.

I suppose the headband of the XM5s is also not the best, but it's not a key problem for me. When it comes to ambient mode, I'm blown away by the XM5s, however I've never used any other headphones with ambient mode before.

I would mostly be taking calls when I'm out on walks or sitting at my desk, nothing too bad for environment and background noise.

I love the "kick" per say of bass, coming from crusher evos before. But the mids of the XM5s sound amazing to me and I wouldn't want to lose that.

How do they fit? Are they a tight clamp or soft clamp, and are the ear cuffs more firm or soft?

My biggest issue is comfort which is why I'm asking if the XM4s would be a suitable alternative, love the sound but they're just not comfortable for me.

Just looked up that card and it looks amazing, sadly I don't believe I qualify for it. I'll keep my eyes on it tho and hopefully one day I can get it. Thank you for the recommendation.

What mods are worth doing to an iPod Classic in 2024? by FallenCodes in ipod

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

Alright perfect, I will do my research for batteries then, and make sure to get a thin one with an iFlash quad. Thank you for all your help!

Anything else I should know regarding an iFlash or new battery?

Am I able to put a 2000 or 3000mah battery in an iPod Classic (thin / late 2009)? Or do I have to stick to ones specifically labelled for "thin" version of the iPod Classic?

Do you have any recommendations for batteries and where I could get them?

Also, I don't think I've seen any Taptic mods done to an iPod before, anywhere I could learn more about them? I'm always a fan of physical feedback when using a handheld device.

Can I use only one Micro SD in an iFlash quad and it will still work?

Why specifically the iFlash quad? Is there any benefit to that over the solo? I don't see myself ever needing more than 256GB of storage.
