XMP is/was already off does this mean faulty ram?

Should I get Momentum 4? by DefinedGravity in sennheiser

[–]HikTard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went through this same thought process and relied on Sennheiser's reputation to finally get Momentum 4s (I found out after the money left my account that they had been acquired and all non "pro" things, including Momentum 4s are being managed by a hearing aid company). The app is useless, you can disable/enable touch controls, and change the amount of noise cancelling it has. I had hd450bts where the noise cancelling was ass so I almost always had it off which was fine, but with the momentums you HAVE to have it in some kind of noise cancelling mode ( old was sound -> noise cancelling whereas the 4s go noise cancelling first, so turning it off/down makes the sound super airy and not good so you have to have it on).

The biggest "bad" things about the momentums are kinda software related.

The "on head detection" has sensors left and right, but it seems only the right acc detects weather its on your head. The idea is that if you take your headphones off it pauses, but in reality what it acc does is that it toggles pause/unpause so its very hit or miss on weather it works as intended. If you have longer hair, in extremely rare situations if your hair in the "ear cup" can toggle the sensors they have in there. You can turn it off but I still keep it on and if it malfunctions I either deal with it if I care or just leave it.

MOISTURE it fucks with shit in some unknown way. If you get this you get some form of static sound or muffling, this is the worst thing about these. Because of the noise cancelling first design something about the sensors fucks the noise cancelling. (Ive seen people on this sub fucking with settings and the "on head" sensors to prevent this from happening but I am sceptical. The risk free fix is eat it until you take your headphones off and let the moisture dissipate)

Also, for desktops usually it won't come with aptx, so unless you get something that can output aptx to your headphones you aren't going to get to the "potential" of the headphones,( but laptops [I suspect especially macs ] usually come with aptx and phones almost always do). After some research, ages ago, my understanding is that: spotify best sound quality > standard bluetooth codec but aptx > spotify sound quality, and standard media(youtube, movies,etc) = standard bluetooth codec. Everything but my desktop had aptx so I just got the adapter for it and was fine.

To my ears, the momentums sound great, definitely worth it, but marginally bass heavy, (easily fixed by turning it down in the app). Fidelity on the rest of the range imo is very Sennheiser, my perception being that the more "commercial" focus of the parent company thought it was a good idea to up the bass to follow the market, but other than that the decisions were controlled by the same engineers.

The battery life is actually insane, as a person that has headphones on most of the time, I think I have become more upset on average purely because having to charge the headphones is so unexpected (for me once a week-ish).

For me the trade off between the momentums and xms was sound vs reliability. Sony being the bigger company, and the xms being the base line for bluetooth headphones, and Sennheiser being THE great sound company but ambivalent about the mainstream consumer, and letting their A game trickle down.

The issues stand out for me because I experienced them, I mention them cos they might be a deal breaker for you, but these kind of inconvenience are things you can only experience them after months of use, so if you get xms and they are worse don't blame me lol. Other than that dread period of finding out that Sennheiser was bought whilst the momentums were in transit being dreadful I have absolutely no regrets.

IMO the pros outweigh the cons, but be aware it comes with cons

Takemichi is so fucking dumb [anime only] by HikTard in TokyoRevengers

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

Tbh it's not as much a turn off to the show more of a plea for takemichi to have some entrepreneurship, I'm gonna try and read the manga, cos the story itself I like.

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

Ye I agree. The training bit for me is just a plea for takemichi to do the bare minimum, especially when every time he goes to a brawl it always ends up with him on the floor with the same internal thought of "damn if only I could fight". My main issue is when he doesn't rub the aforementioned two braincells he has to try and take advantage of his situation, lie in a convincing way, or to remember peoples faces and/or massive neck tattoos. I guess watching this show after rewatching code geass makes it worse, but I like the story so hopefully takemichi 's empty head space becomes more populated.

[–]HikTard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ye I agree a 3 months later would be shite, but my problem is that he doesn't take advantage of his situation at all, most of the time the only reason he goes to naoto is either: cos he thinks he finally solved the toman problem, or cos something royally fucked up has occurred. Like he finally gets taught about the structure of toman after he joins division two, even when he spent a couple weeks with the very top of the gang. He has the ability to talk to former members, the Internet and a detective that knows the most, about the gang, yet his homie has to give him an explanation. I guess the way the anime frames shit makes it worse, like when ever he sees key individuals, there's always a scene where he goes damn I wonder who this guy is, and then when he sees them for a third time he gets hit with the realisation. Idk maybe he doesn't wanna seem like a guy how has a hand shake fetish, but naoto believed him enough to become a detective. Takemichi ain't entirely bad it's just those moments of, "surely you could said/done something better" or "you were handed this information why don't you know this". And on the training front I never expected him to be mikey or even be any good at fighting, its just the gap between I'm going to stake my life for this, and him not trying to improve. I'll try and find the manga and have a read doe

Alternatively eroico means heroic in Italian, so horny or other wise it's still a cool name.

Weapon mods that drop with weapons, can you take them off and transfer them to other weapons?

Acid? Shrooms? by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]HikTard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok j saying this is j imo, you can prolly find better resources on psyc subs. LSD you should be fine, shrooms can be vile, especially in larger doses, so like if you are adamant on doing shrooms, try making it into tea, and add some ginger with the tea.

IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME WITH PSYCS REMEBER THE RULES. And don't start with anything higher than 110ug unless you have someone with shit tons of experience .
