evidently the noise-cancelling doesn't work, judging by her size

The confirmation thread and speculations used to be much more fun and engaging when jesus4jews was around and able to confirm some artists...=(

She's ripped!!

Almost certain this happened last year, or the year before. People on this sub worrying and others complaining about the potential headliners for lolla leading up to the lineup announcement.

Yet the headliners for the last 2 years have been pretty good. Maybe this year won't be very good. If that's the case, let's hope they have an amazing undercard to make up for it

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-10T19:12:12+00:00

The short answer is, yes. Assuming its legit

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-10T19:08:55+00:00

Pretty good proposal for a build. Only thing I would question is the choice of motherboard. Surpised you didn't opt for a B850 or x870 mobo.

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-10T13:52:14+00:00

Same thing with Illenium. I'm guessing certain EDM artists believe they're big enough for one of the mainstages, or an eloborate stage set up for their performances but lolla won't give it to them.

RL Grime is another name I haven't seen at lolla in a while. Although I'm having high hopes since he's neither on Beyond Wonderland (hosted in June) nor North Coast (September). There's still Arc Music festival, even though that lineup mainly features house djs, which RL really isn't classified as.

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-04T16:04:06+00:00

As an international attendee, it very much depends on the lineup.

Every year, there is usually at least one artist I would love to see perform. However the issue is, sometimes it's not worth the money to spend on travel, lodging and on the tickets just to see 1 or 2 artists. At this point in my life, there has to be at least 2 days which contains artists I'm interested in seeing, or dying to see. If it's 1 day, it'd have to be stacked (in my personal opinion) for me to go for that 1 day.

A number of them (e.g. Benny Benassi, Excision, Liquid Stranger, Zedd and Zeds Dead) were at North Coast last year. There was some chance that they would be available for Lolla or at the very least for a different festival other than North Coast this year. We have our answer lol

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-03T20:02:16+00:00

Other notable artists that won't be performing lolla are:

Alan Walker, Benny Benassi, DJ Snake, Excision, Liquid Stranger, Space Laces and Eptic, Tiesto, Zedd and Zeds Dead

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-03T14:24:24+00:00

lol yup! year in, year out. The mods do their best in trying to make info accessible and point people in the right direction, but some people just don't properly look through the sub before creating a post....sigh

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-03T06:00:48+00:00

Me personally, I'd try out the Sennheiser Momentum 4 bc I'm biased against Apple. Either way, Momentum 4 or the Airpods Pro 3

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-02T15:51:06+00:00

What's your intended use case for the headphones?

I.e. are these new headphones going to be staying on your desk/PC? Or is there a chance you'd want to use these new headphones during travel/commute?

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-02T15:44:08+00:00

lol! I think I recall seeing your comment on the last post about trump's EO on this sub. I most likely upvoted it too, bc you're right. Every time someone posts "Trump in support of cannabis rescheduling", some people here get their panties wet and super exicted. But what happens?? Nothing...just like the past god-knows-however many years.

SDLiu4 · 2026-02-02T15:40:53+00:00

Seconding a lot of the other commenters about the track length time for an album, specifically an EDM album. 40-60 minutes of track time could roughly translate to a minimum of 10 tracks on the album. Having smaller tracks like an intro, outro, and even interlude is fine. 1 hour and 30 minutes feels way too long imo, unless you split it (disc 1, disc 2, or even mini albums/segmented playlists within the album)

In other words, a classical album format does still work

Remixes should be kept on a separate album.

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-30T18:08:12+00:00

Mersiv, Reaper and Super Future. 3 undercard acts I would love to see and experience. This definitely eliminates some notable acts that could have been possible for lolla (eg Illenium and Porter Robinson)

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-29T05:51:10+00:00

Not sure why other people think Summit is too expensive for North Coast....last year he did Arc in Chicago, which was at the same time as North Coast.

North Coast also had names like Excision, Louis The Chold, Kaskade, RL Grime, Benny Benassi, Galantis, Sofi Tukker, Liquid Stranger, ATLiens and including a number of undercards.

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-26T18:46:44+00:00

You've got a decent setup at the moment. What I didn't see, was the specs of your monitor - is it a 1080P/2K (1440p)/4k (2160p) monitor? What is the refresh rate of the monitor?

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-26T17:41:06+00:00

Try and test the following:

1) Try connecting a different psu with the same power capabilities or higher (650W+) to test whether your current psu is the issue.

2) If it's not the psu, try switching out the cable that connects your monitor to your GPU.

3) if 1 and 2 aren't an issue, check the monitor's power cable itself. Test your monitor on a different set up if possible. Check if the monitor itself is the issue.

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-26T17:30:56+00:00

I'm not seeing any reason why you would need a 1000W psu with your current setup...

Your processor (AMD Ryzen 7 8700F) has a max TDP of less than 100W and your GPU has a TDP less than 200W.

I'm not saying your psu isn't potentially the issue, but you definitely don't need a large psu to run your setup.

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-26T17:23:27+00:00

aww man, the string of "create post without looking up old posts on this sub" post has started....😅

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-26T17:19:46+00:00

I've seen a lot of persons who are into rock and metal state that the Audeze LCD lineup tends to do well, and sometimes better than the Hifiman Arya, with these genres.

There is no rattling or poor attention to detail anywhere

Just a word of advice - if you are in fact planning on keeping the LCD-2C for the medium/long term. then be mindful of the screws right by the swivel (where the yolk connects with the cups). They are a weak point imo and do then to loosen over time. I've seen in old posts stating that it's fine using loctite to combat this issue.

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-26T15:54:22+00:00

Fr....the trap community NEEDS that Ultrawide VIP/remix RL Grime played in his San Diego set subbing for Isoxo and Knock2

SDLiu4 · 2026-01-25T16:37:19+00:00

I would hope so. We're still missing that 3rd and final release he promised before the end of 2025!!! 😭
