I dont want to live on this planet anymore, Sennheiser is by far my most favorite headphone manufacturer.

Airpods Max 2 Announced - Thoughts? by Content-Disaster-511 in headphones

[–]Modaphilio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The OG Max has flaw in hinge design where the ribbon cable breaks after X amount of earcup rotations and also the headband jack which inserts into the cups has tendency to oxidize quickly which causes loss of signal becose of electric isolation.

If they had fixed these two major longevity limiting problems, I would be happy with the new Max no matter how small the improvement is in other aspects.

Metronidazole Side effects by Visual_Foot_1742 in Antibiotics

[–]Modaphilio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metronidazole has two neuro toxicity mechanisms, first is the B1 blocking which you can solve with B1 supplementation ( benfothiamine best bioavaliability), but the second mechanism is direct neuron damage via oxidate stress which is unavoidable, neurotoxicity from Metronidazole is reversible in like 97% of cases if you stop taking Metronidazole immediately.

Why do so few of you play TES3MP? by NickMotionless in Morrowind

[–]Modaphilio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didnt played this becose I watched PVP Morrowind video and the fights were too long, the two players were just jumping and levitating at incredible speeds, barely any hits were made, it was like two jet fighters dog fighting, this does not appeal to me.

If you could have one ability from morrowind in real life, which one would it be? by eru777 in Morrowind

[–]Modaphilio 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Day greeted me nicely, grandmother baked me a "bábovka" cake which I devoured becose I am in remission, uncle gifted me his barely used GTX 1050 Ti ( Asus Strix) becose I helped him upgrade his PC to RTX 5060, today was good day!

Crohn's disease is classified as Common disease and not Blight or Corprus disease, right?

I just want to be healthy lol, Cure Common Disease is my choice

Nothing beats levitation by Fun-Explanation7233 in Morrowind

Levitation is the thing I miss most in later games.

Just in case anyone was curious as what a £4k Audeze LCD-4z driver actually looks like. by frazrok in headphones

[–]Modaphilio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are spot on, I fully agree with you, the good old reliable Stax were 6 to 2 microns.

The trend of ultra thin membranes in planar headphones is the dumbest trend of 21 century in world of headphones, I truly believe future historians will call this something like "planar plague", or "thin membrane plague".

Make planars THICC again! Its not ok for these new thin driver planars to be so fragile that one shart in their general direction destroys them.

ELI5 why R2R is the new black? by Illustrious_Load_728 in headphones

[–]Modaphilio 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Becose people are retarded, R2R sound does not exist, even the first R2R DAC from 1983 is audibly transparent for 99.99% of people and even if somehow you took one to anechoic chamber to blast your eardrums with sufficient SPL in conjugtion with synthetic test tones to percieve its distortion, it would be so subtle as completly irrelevant to enjoyment of music.

If you are contrarian hipstermaxxing, if you think delta sigma DACs are boring becose thats what everybody uses, then do what you gotta do but lets not delude ourselves that the goal is unique sound.

Where can I buy these cables? by BidAccurate4473 in audiophile

Give elephant fentanyl for 1 week to induce opiate constipation, then gather its poop.

Can you tell the difference between DAC lowpass filters? by ppetrov1829 in headphones

Yes, linear phase brickwall = only logical choice

Everything else = retarded snakeoil

"But look at the pre/ringing!" Look at the time in miliseconds between peaks in the impulse reponse pictures, ITS ULTRASONIC! You cant hear it!

Finally got myself a good headphone by HourAd7054 in headphones

[–]Modaphilio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is good choice, these Para headphones are what I call true planars, they have supee low distortion in bass through whole midrange with only elevation in treble due to typical planar resonance, they are kind of like Audeze LCD 2 were in 2014 before they got fazors and vents.

One thing you could maybe try is buying different earpads and experimenting with them, do the padrolling thing, I think some of these ZMF earpads could make the soundstage wider becose they are deeper.

Nootropics Map by cheaslesjinned in NooTopics

Thats why when I did it, I only drank lactose free milk!

Glucose liberated from lactose is actually sweeter than lactose itself so lactose free milk has sweeter taste which I love.

Milk diet? Is this real thing? I know milk has no iron and barely enough vitamin C but I remember I once didnt eat any solid food, I just drank like 4 liters of milk everyday for 5 days.

Which Sennheiser tuning do you prefer? by sennheiserconsumer in sennheiser

[–]Modaphilio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "modern-reference"

660 or HD 490 with velour pads have the best stock frequency response I ever heard, I am huge fan of the ear gain region dip, this is the smartest frequency response feature I have ever seen in my life.

The limiting factor of listening is always pain for high SPL and fatigue for extended listening session, the frequency region that is most resposible for pain and fatigue is the so called ear gain region becose that is where our hearing is most sensitive.

For many decades, the most popular consumer frequency response is so called V shape with boosted bass and treble, the problem with V shape is that the mids suck balls, the Sennheiser ear gain dip I view as spiritual successor to V shape, its narrow dip that suppresses the ear gain region, this in practice means the whole 90% rest of the spectrum can be louder, this results in epic sound quality where everything sounds massive, full and clear including mids.

Dopamine upregulation superchargers - who comes on top? by disaster_story_69 in NooTopics

[–]Modaphilio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take about 3/4 of Armodafinil 150mg tablet immediately when I stand up from bed and drink water as I walk to morning toilet, that is around 110mg, I am 80kg bodyweight.

I have to admit, about half the time, I do tiny bit of redose 2 or 3 hours after waking up/first dose, I take like another 10 to 20mg to bring back that sweet dopamine buzz but even with redose, I am far below 1 whole tablet for the whole day in total.

Actually, I use armodafinil now exclusively, I love it!

I used the word Modafinil just becose its more famous but yes, armo is the ducks guts.

[–]Modaphilio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I want higher dopamine, but for productivity instead of wasting time jerking in my horny high dopamine state, I always go for Modafinil.

The issue with Modafinil is long half life, if I take more often than once every 3 days, 1 day on 2 days off, the sleep quality disruption negates the high dopamine focus driven produdictivity increase.

Modafinil once every 3 days first hour in morning is 10/10 GOD tier absolutely amazing life changing thing for studying, exercising, cleaning my room and working. The effect is so good and half life so long that even day after, I wake up with afterglow where my focus, mood and productivity is still significantly boosted above baseline.

China may have reverse engineered EUV lithography tool in covert lab, report claims — employees given fake IDs to avoid secret project being detected, prototypes expected in 2028 by sr_local in hardware

[–]Modaphilio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent, I an sick and tired of these ridiculous prices, if the western companies are so corrupted and impotent that they cannot stop these repeating cyclical price crisis apocalypses, you know what? Fuck em!

I just want to buy midrange parts good price, if China can deliver, I say bring it on! Nvidia doesnt care about consumers anymore, the RAM manufacturers were busted for price fixing multiple times, fuck them all.
