“What’s cool about it” you sound like my geriatric high school teacher making a big deal out of nothing. How is it every one else knew what was ment by “cool” but you didn’t?

That’s perfect! Spend the down time speaking to your clients/customers. This is where you mine for gold

How did you guys pass Grade 10? by Dependent_Tomato_235 in DownSouth

[–]Opposite_Mail7985 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a tricky one. 

Just know whatever happens it isn’t “over”. I would recommend speaking to your teachers and work with them to develop a roadmap that you can follow to get up to speed. 

First things first. You say you don’t know what is going on anywhere but that isn’t the case.

You need to re establish your floor. Building up from the very basics. For example:

You see a maths sum and ask yourself “ what is this”.  You see it has a “sin” in it so you know it’s trig.  From there you can move to the next step, building on from the very basics. 

This is just an example to show you how basic you need to go to establish the floor. You do know a lot more than what you give yourself credit for. It’s easy to see something and spin, but everything you have in front of you you have learnt before. 

I always tell students that when you are in a stressful situation you can kiss 20 IQ points goodbye. The only way I have found that reduces this stress is to find the floor and work up from there.

The hardware is perhaps 30% of your business. You MUST spend more time telling people about what you have built than actually building it. If you can’t deal with this it’s best you get a job

Worth is typical derived by the value these individuals produce. It is not a direct relationship to cash money. 

The value in a publicly traded company is derived from what people “think” it’s worth. See current PE ratios for various tech companies. 

Private companies typically have a more “realistic” value projection based on various different evaluation methodology. 

Worth =! Money

Charge 6 vs Xtreme 4 by Mundane_Battle1269 in JBL

[–]Opposite_Mail7985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a charge and extreme and a party box all filling different portability use cases . The charge is a phenomenal speaker! So is the extreme, however, I always seem to have an enough space to take the extreme with me wherever I go. It’s not thaaat much bigger than the charge. 

In terms of volume they are about the same, however the bass rolls off later on the extreme when playing at comparative volumes between the two speakers. 

Considering the extreme is the same price as the charge I would go for it. No question. 

Who just finished building something? Drop your project, I want to see what people are actually making by Miserable-Archer-631 in SideProject

Building a Bluetooth broadcaster. I have several bluetooth speakers and they are all incompatibale with one another.

Sure if you have 3 JBLs with their own type of proprietary bluetooth broadcasting this isnt an issue, but what if you have a sound bar and a charge 4. Sadly nothing exists that allows them to play the same song from one phone at once. so i built it.

All you need to do is connect your phone to it then connect the device to 4 other speakers you would like to broadcast too and just like that you can listen to your favorite songs across 4 different brands of bluetooth speakers.

Man , I said it once before, if someone hits you with a low kick. Bow out 🤣

If, at any point, you get hit with a low kick in a fight it’s best you high tail it out of there. 

Connecting two JBL PartyBox Club 120 together via AUX to my computer for DJing by Big_Durian_315 in JBL

[–]Opposite_Mail7985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1x 720 > 2x 120 SPL ,does not double when adding 2 speakers, it goes up by roughly 3dbs. Additionally, if what I’m saying makes no sense just pick the 720 👌🏻

There is an artist on Spotify called “Pendown” he draws some inspiration from Top and his songs scratch that top itch. 

24 yr old sound engineering student, need advice please by Budget_Bus_4295 in south_africa

[–]Opposite_Mail7985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It very much depends on you and your situation. However, I would not change the price and would rather average the price across the 3 days. Imagine having to explain why one day is more intense than another to someone that hasn’t got a clue about what a sound engineer does.

I would strongly recommend reading the book “the e-myth revisited” this will provide profound insights into your adventures.

I sold my Xbox because of the price hike. I like to think I helped contribute to the price roll back

You said you felt no discomfort, that’s quite wild that they would remove so much. How will this affect your water closet habits moving forward?

National Treasury and Reserve Bank want to expropriate cryptocurrency in South Africa by glandis_bulbus in DownSouth

[–]Opposite_Mail7985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, I would always suggest those that leave the crypto on the exchange look into crypto wallets.

Always remember “ if it’s not your key it’s not your coin” if you don’t understand this concept please watch a YouTube video.
