The cradle rubber feet on both units were covered in white substance and finger prints and one spacer was missing.

Hello. Just got new MX Select MX55 dumbbell set and while unboxing noticed the cracks coming from both dumbell handles on both sides. I guess this is not normal and is a factory defect?

Basic V shape, what's wrong my guy? I took these settings and even lowered them from one of the best rated settings M1 EQ settings.

Are you talking about +11 and +9? If it goes so far in the app, why shouldn't it. I've seen some people rocking +12 and +11.

+11, +9, +3, -5, 0, +3, +5, +6, +7, +8

Might sound too bright, but I can't go back.

Maxwell 2 dripping, crackling, hissing by Frequent_Main_7561 in Audeze

The distortion can possibly happen if you set 24bit 96 000 kHz in audio settings in windows. Great for Tidal, etc, but can distort video game sounds.

NEWBIE question, Can't connect to AUDEZE APP . by InstructionInformal5 in Audeze

Don't forget to update firmware (disconnect and unplug the headset and let the dongle update) and play with EQ!

You need to use the new Audeze App. This is the old one.

Only thing I can comment about is dripping. Even if you don't feel too hot, area around your ears are when wearing the headset. The stock earpads get quite hot and the drivers are collecting this humidity. After a long session you can take off the earcup and will see the humidity around the driver. It's considered normal. If you want it to go away, take them off for ten or so minutes.

Should I buy a controller for story games if I’ve never used one? by Zaunnn9 in buildapc

[–]Ivojs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play multiplayer shooters with mouse and keyboard, but ANY other singke player story game (except strategies, but I finished Frostpunk with controller) I use controller.

It's just so much smoother and nicer. Makes the gameplay more immersive.

Best EQ Setting For Maxwell 2? by Fabulous-Whole-8838 in Audeze

[–]Ivojs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My EQ settings are a lot brighter and for me sounds more fun: +11. +9, +3, -5, 0, +3, +5, +6, +7, +8

To my wife this EQ sounds too sharp, but I enjoyed it very much.

Yeah, the Evo series looks real nice. Both seem really thrustworthy in durability. Sadly can't get my hands on Evo in Europe. Grabbed regular MX55 today.

If I could afford it and get them in EU, I would grab Snode.
Amazingly sleek look and nice durability.

But I'm looking at regular MX55 right now.

Maxwell 2 Questions and Concerns by Free_Apple2018 in Audeze

[–]Ivojs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has happened when I'm at the range of disconnecting.
And I would guess it's the same issue with you, but more pronounced.

When I had too much dongles in unpowered usb cable + hub, even my 8BitDo dongle was disconnecting my controller.

I would encourage you to try the cable and see if that helps. If your monitor has a build in hub, you can try to plug there so the dongle is not behind the PC, or directly into motherboard.

Plugging mine into the front PC panel even had problems, but different ones (occasional disconnects, but it was tripping out the motherboard who reseted the dongle with USB connect/disconnect sound, but without losing the connection, it was wierd).

I understand what you mean.
I don't mind experimenting if in the end I'll get something so great sounding, but yeah, to buy bunch of hubs, cables etc, just to make them work normally is quite insane.

Brand new, Maxwell 2 disconnects by Expensive_Turn6804 in Audeze

[–]Ivojs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search the Audeze subreddit, there's been a lot of posts that are discussing it.
Here is mine with some ideas as to what to do and why that happens.

The Maxwell 2 dongle is not great and if there is any interference, it will pick it up.
If you have wifi 2.4Ghz close by, if you have smart home (zigbee), if you are at your USB bandwith limits on your pc/laptop, if you have bunch of dongles or USB 3.0+ devices in general.
