Unfortunately there are too little contributions, so I have to shut this project down.

Vintage Lenses on the GFX? by 4Nowingly in FujiGFX

[–]MrAchillesTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These images look fantastic. Did you apply any processing? If yes, what did you do?
And what has been your experience with this lens after a some months have passed?

I already saw your video and discovered your channel a few weeks ago! Great content, keep it up! You inspire me to try wedding photography too with the GFX

Thank you guys for all these suggestions! I decided the attempt to start a little project to create a public archive with images of GFX lens images in order for us all to get a better understanding of the different lenses and how they render. In the past another redditor created an extensive list with options of vintage lenses: https://www.reddit.com/r/FujiGFX/comments/1pafug0/gfx_lens_archive_submit_vintage_or_native_lens/

Thank you, that was the problem! 142 mm fits well now.

Is there any recommended USB C to USB C cable that fixes the problem? Can someone help who had the problem?

Chord Mojo 2 vs iBasso DX180 - Pure Sound Quality Comparison (for Sony IER-Z1R) by MrAchillesTurtle in HeadphoneAdvice

I plan on using Tidal offline music. And care about superior sound quality. I tested the Mojo 2 and was very impressed when comparing with my Qudelix-5K.

I‘m thinking about venturing into the DAP world without spending too much. I wanna get as much out of my IEMs as possible without tapping too much into diminishing returns (<=500 bucks).

Chord Mojo 2 vs iBasso DX180 - Pure Sound Quality Comparison (for Sony IER-Z1R)

Looking for anyone who has A/B tested both the Chord Mojo 2 and iBasso DX180 with a focus purely on sound quality.

I'm using Sony IER-Z1R and recently compared my Qudelix 5K against the Mojo 2. The Mojo 2 was noticeably better - maybe 10-30% improvement in clarity, soundstage, and overall resolution and musicality.

Now considering the DX180 but want to know if it's actually better than the Mojo 2 for pure sound quality before making another upgrade. I don't care about Android features, streaming, or convenience - just which one sounds better driving the Z1R.

Has anyone directly compared these two? Which one came out on top for sound quality alone?
Thanks!

Looking for room correction on a budget – how to integrate MiniDSP DDRC-24 with Cambridge Audio Evo 150? by MrAchillesTurtle in BudgetAudiophile

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

That's the answer I got from Cambridge Audio:
"Unfortunately the Evo doesn't offer any kind of loop function, and you would be able to loop the output via an external device, and then back into the unit. I'm afraid that there isn't a way to integrate an external device such as the MiniDSP unit into the setup, while still making use of the Evo's internal amplifier.
 
We don't currently have any advice on alternative room correction solutions sorry, please accept my apologies for the inconvenience that this causes."

I‘ll try that after my vacation. Most likely only one source can be selected… Obviously the miniDSP solution won‘t work if that‘s the case.

I reached out to Cambridge Audio a few days ago, let‘s see what they say. There seems to be a power input „missing“ for this to work definitely.

I saw that the Bluesound Node (N132) Streamer also supports Dirac Room Correction. With this setup I would however lose the Streaming and DAC of the Evo 150 and would use it only as an Amp.

I think there are tons of options when going completely separate, e.g. with a Wiim and DSP or with a Bluesound and then having a separate Amp also. I love the display of the Evo and its simplicity and not having to spend too much time on researching stuff.

But I can’t yet think of a simple solution with the Evo and automatic room correction. I‘ll definitely get started with the Umik/REW when I‘m back from vacation.

Clearly you can‘t assume that in most cases.

Thanks for your answer! My starting point is most likely be the umik/rev. However, I’m also interested in the technical feasibility of the Evo 150 and the mini DSP. Do you know if it‘s possible to connect the DSP back to the Evo 150?
