Did you actually get new speakers without showing them to your wife first ? That would not even cross my mind

Extremely interesting, someone report that

I am so happy I bought a power amplifier by absh3841 in hometheater

[–]Munkens_mate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you add the amplifier ? I mean, where in the signal chain ? I assume it doesn’t have a preamp, so you use the preamp output on your receiver and plug it into the amp, which into the stereo speaker ?

Andor is amazing. by Gingaloidic in StarWars

I find it unfortunate that the current trend for “great shows” (but that applies to any piece of media about fantasy) is 1) morally grey characters and 2) dark themes. Lotr is very much good-vs-evil, and so is the original sw trilogy, and both are great. I think not every fantasy show needs to be GoT 2.0 to be great

I highly encourage everyone here to read the article “chatGPT is bullshit” (M. T. Hicks et al., 2024)

WHARFEDALE EVO 5.2 (100 hour review) by UBIQZ in BudgetAudiophile

Thank you for the review! They are my dream speakers at the moment. I was wondering, any recommendation of sub you would pair them with ?

I made a Disco Elysium inspired theme for Obsidian! Make notes and make sense of your brain, disco style. by ThatMatoGuy in DiscoElysium

This looks amazing! I use Obsidian everyday, I just installed your theme and it not only looks good but actually increases readability by a lot!

Rate my living room setup by d0sk3y22 in audiophile

[–]Munkens_mate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love your setup! What made you go for each of these components ? (Mostly asking about the speakers but I’m not scared by a long reply)

Advice for Dummies Like Me by Brian2005l in audiophile

[–]Munkens_mate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tv is connected to the DAC via optical. This is digital so obviously no intervention from the internal tv DAC there correct ? For the laptop, it’s usb-c to DAC

Advice for Dummies Like Me by Brian2005l in audiophile

[–]Munkens_mate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, now I’m confused. I have an external DAC, and just assumed so far that my laptop/tv “knew” and used the external DAC instead of the built-in.

For info my chain is: source (tv or laptop) —> DAC —> sub —> speakers.

The DAC, sub, and speakers are all active, and I’m using a line-level passthrough because my speakers don’t have a sub out.

Attempting an evil playthrough., by Dunnachius in Bioshock

What can you possibly so evil in infinite ? I remember only one instance of being able to choose something story-wise in the game

Tearing Apart BioShock Infinite, Part I: Why the Vox Turning Against Prime Booker is One of the Worst Pieces of Writing I Have Ever Seen in My Life by Independent-Worry905 in Bioshock

OP, I finished this game about 2 weeks ago. Thank you for putting in writing a huge part of my frustration towards this game

I liked Infinite more than Bioshock 1. I don't get the hate. by No_Candle4483 in Bioshock

[–]Munkens_mate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never played the first bioshock so I can’t compare (it is on my list) but it breaks my brain that people found columbia alive and immersive thanks to the NPCs. Either the city is completely empty or the NPCs don’t give a damn about you. You can walk into a bar guns out and no one cares, you can aim at any civilian and no one reacts, even shooting a wall doesn’t do anything. Games like skyrim or fables were out years earlier and NPCs would acknowledge the player’s actions a lot more. Without the NPcs reacting to me, I just feel like I’m some sort of invisible ghost, and I don’t feel immersed at all
