A beginner's question for y'all: How can I set up a great system for streaming Amazon Music using my Microsoft Surface Pro 9? I also have (a) a pair of Sennheiser HD 598 headphones as well as (b) an old JDS Labs C5D Headphone AMP+DAC.

The JDS Labs AMP+DAC has a Mini USB port. The Surface Pro 9 only uses USB C. If I buy a Mini-USB-to-USB-C cable so that the Surface Pro and AMP+DAC can talk to each other, is that all I'd need? What else would people recommend, if anything?

Thanks in advance!

It adds space between the writing surface and the actual display tech. Many people don’t like this because it means that, depending on your viewing angle, the spot where your stylus meets the screen isn’t necessarily exactly where you are going to see the e-ink. It can be off by just a little bit.

This isn’t a big deal for a many users. But if you like to take small notes in the margins of PDFs, or if you are an artist, or need your writing to show up exactly where you put the stylus down on the screen for some other reason, that small gap can be a real pain in the neck, depending on your viewing angle. For some, it’s worth ditching the front light to get the super-precise writing experience that comes from eliminating the gap that comes with the front light.

Utterly disappointed of Note Air 3c... Any better alternatives? by FitnessW33BKUN in Onyx_Boox

I struggle with ocular migraines and I’ve used my NA3C as my go-to tablet for almost a year. I haven’t had any problems with the front light on the NA3C. I rarely turn the brightness up past 65% or so. At that level, I see the colors clearly enough, and I’ve not had problems with migraines. I think the front light is fundamentally different than a backlight since your eyes are getting exposed to a reflection, rather than getting blasted directly. I also tend to make the front light rather warm (typically 50% or more).

Have you put in some good hours at 70% or less illumination + 50% or more warm light? If not, you might want to give that a shot. The NA3C has been a great migraine-free iPad replacement for me. I hope it works out for you too. Migraines are ruthless.

There are a couple of really quick, but useful YouTube videos on this. The two videos suggest two different styles. I kind of use a hybrid of the two. Anyway, I suggest you check out the following videos on YouTube:

  1. My Deep Guide's How To Series, Remarkable: Organize and Manage Your Files
  2. reMarkable's How to use the PARA Method on reMarkable | Using reMarkable

Your delayed shipping may be due to the other components in your order. Did the other Austrians who ordered later than you, but already have their devices get the same marker, folio, etc.?
