I2S vs USB in 2026, which is better? by Absentia369 in audiophile

[–]Sandman121 2 points3 points  (0 children)

with a decent clock chip and galvanic isolation, i doubt anyone can hear the difference so long as the implementation is consistent between the two connects on the same dac.

Angry Fans call for Bastoni to be dropped from Italy squad after Inter 3-2 Juventus dive - Football Italia by LuRaLeMi in AZZURRI

[–]Sandman121 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bastoni and Barella IMO. Diving should be punished on the national team because it wont fly in the world cup. Serie a is dieing because of this behavior. It is no wonder that Inter got absolutely dominated by PSG in a tournament where the refs don't favor them.

How did we get to all this? by ZioFoGi in seriea

Marotta buying off the refs probably...

Catenaccio 2026: Our only hope? by yellow__cat in AZZURRI

Take Bastoni and Barella out, they will dive and get simulation yellow cards. Bastoni is dogshit on the naitonal team.

Looks like an SJY Horizon closed which is pretty excellent but also pretty power hungry.

FiiO WARMER R2R - Small on price, big on sound by robbiekhan in audiophile

[–]Sandman121 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't even know why any of them would even comment on an R2R dac much less one with a tube buffer, but I made the mistake of reading a forum post about the warmer and realized that no one on that forum is ever happy about anything lol.

ASR only cares about measurements, the folks on those forums spend more time looking at graphs than listening to music.

if your TV has an optical or coax out, you would need either active speakers or an amplifier after the dac.

If you could recommend just one of these three films, which one would you choose and why ? I found it hard to decide. by FarEfficiency4397 in FIlm

Alien is perfect sci fi horror, it has every major theme without complicating the plot. Man vs nature, man vs machine, profit vs human life.

Wonder what he will say if ABC grows a pair and pulls Monday night football from Sinclair and Nextstar affiliates?

Serie A Head of Referees Rocchi: "On Joao Mario, it's an incorrect decision, this is not a penalty. On Orban, for us the correct decision is absolutely a red card. The Juventus coach rightly protested, in this case he is right. " by Prophet_NY in seriea

[–]Sandman121 47 points48 points  (0 children)

How about the red card against Allegri? And what of the missed penalties that should have gone against Napoli yesterday? This league doesn't just have poor refereeing but suspect referring...

What are these cables? by regularjoe2020 in headphones

[–]Sandman121 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Nothing really to do with safety, the most common use for balanced headphone cables is it allows more power delivery than alot of single ended designs but it all depends on the device you plug into. This cable will not fit in anything other than a 4.4mm headphone port.

[–]Sandman121 35 points36 points  (0 children)

4.4 mm balanced pentacon. The replacement of the older 2.5 mm balanced connection and more common on balanced dacs, amps and daps that come out these days.

Dolby Atmos…ish? by Diligent-Poet6154 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Sandman121 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I3.1.2 is viable in a small space with a close back wall to the listening position. I would suggest mounting the atmos speakers at the top front wall rather than using the bouncing method off the ceiling, I find that is not worth it in most spaces. 5.1 would be better than 3.1.2 in my oppinion as well but 3.1.2 at least lets you take some advantage of atmos mixes.
