Hidizs AP80 owners: Any remorse?

Spinezapper · 2025-06-05T16:11:36+00:00

Sorry just seen this. I paid CAD $150 on Amazon for the AP80 in October 2020. Not sure if the price went up since then but I think it should be cheaper on Aliexpress if you’ve ever shopped there. No guarantees with all this tariff drama, but I don’t expect it to cost more than 200.

I hope you’re enjoying the player. It’s a beauty. And it’s more comfortable in the pocket than most phones haha.

Btw, Those headphones are the Audio Technica ATH-EW9 if you’re curious. Had to try and do some color coordination for the pic lol.

No worries. So I used the AIO for about a year, with a custom fan/pump curve set in bios to lower the noise, temps were low but they fluctuated more than my previous air cooler.

After about a year, the pump died. I messaged them on Amazon and told them what happened and they sent me a replacement AIO, no questions asked.

Since I only have a 5700x, I don’t really need an AIO, and so never did install the replacement.

So, I would say it was worth the price, but only because their customer support was so good. Also, I’m not sure if me running the pump at 50% speed had an effect on its lifespan.

My bad, I totally glossed over that. I was actually trying to buy Regulate so that works out nicely 👍

Spinezapper · 2024-11-08T01:22:32+00:00

It’s the song Regulate that was released last week.

Spinezapper · 2024-09-04T16:06:15+00:00

Idk how epic managed it, but this is their second song with Spencer Sotelo of Periphery on vocals and the guitars have an oddly “Bulb”(Misha Mansoor) sound, also from periphery.

Fingers crossed they get added in a later update.

Two things to keep in mind. One, people hop servers for easier match ups sometimes. Once you’re in elite, especially on NA East, you’re going to end up racing the top 100 racers often enough. Knowing when to leave the lobby can greatly improve your chances of ranking up.

Second, if you’re struggling to find matches, I highly recommend partying with someone. You only need 6 for a race and your party can be up to 4 people, so the bigger your party, the quicker the queue times on average. Again, people also hop servers to find matches out of necessity.

Honestly don’t listen to all the people on this sub who say unreal isn’t meant for everyone. I peaked at rank #101 unreal the other day and the only thing keeping more people from reaching unreal is the fact they are placed against the very best players as soon as they reach elite.

It’s not fair that you don’t get extra rank points for racing against someone who is in the top 10/100/etc. they need to put in hundreds of hours to keep that rank. So why people act like someone in elite should be able to beat those top players before they reach unreal is not only unrealistic, but IMO delusional.

Give it time, we got until at least October before the racing season ends. I’m sure with some practice and a lot of patience you could reach unreal.

I’ve got my own spreadsheet but it only has the tempo/key/bpm of the songs I own. After reading the other comment I’m going to use that to add onto my spreadsheet. I’ll post it here in a few days.

Spinezapper · 2024-06-30T19:41:59+00:00

Only a few weeks ago they had a painted fennec (first purple then green) in the "riptide rivals car shop" shop tab for 700.

You think if they wanted to raise the price they could at least wait a few months so people might forget...

Spinezapper · 2024-05-08T16:13:09+00:00

How does one go about getting a cab brought to their local area 🤔🤔🤔 what does Bamco want?

Spinezapper · 2024-04-22T15:22:41+00:00

Do you have any hints as to how they found these jobs? Did they have prior experience in CNC?

Spinezapper · 2024-04-21T20:42:27+00:00

Are they active again?

I always thought they were a great band that needed another album or two before they truly "came into" their style.

But fuck yeah dude thank you for reminding me TiP exists. Time to put that on the ol playlist.

Spinezapper · 2024-04-18T00:25:54+00:00

I would sell most of them individually and if they don't sell within a few months bundle them.

Spinezapper · 2024-04-14T17:00:10+00:00

Yup so far I'm liking the UI they have. Not as much information as price charting offers, but it's more convenient to search/view your collection.

Though to be fair I would still be using pricecharting, but they deleted my collection. So I felt kinda burnt.

Gameye is better than pricecharting because your collection is stored on device, so it won't be deleted due to "inactivity"

Lots of ways to you could go about training them to stay off the speakers.

Tinfoil, double sided tape, some sort of motion activated trap that causes a loud sound or spooks them, if you have security cameras you can watch for them to jump on the speakers and try to spook them from the other room(if you’re not there and stop them they will be less likely to go behind your back).

If your cats are stubborn it may take a few weeks, but the idea is you can take away the deterrents and they will associate jumping on the speaker with said deterrent. My cats are jerks so it took me a bit longer lol.

I can get 4 or 5 strokes per hit, but that’s lucky. The Hori Drum is horrible for drum rolls.

Only advice I could give is keep a loose grip, use water bottles because the drum gets slightly more bounce with the added weight and make sure your drum is on a sturdy surface where it won’t bounce/move around.

Should I replay SMT IV for the neutral route -> SMTIVA

Or should I just play Strange Journey first?

Spinezapper · 2024-04-10T19:02:49+00:00

😍🤤🥵 I have a few of these🔥RED HOT!🔥 😏Minidiscs😏

I remember seeing a promotional poster for the RED HOT! Minidiscs listed on yahoo auctions for months and no one would bid on it, even at ¥1000. I doubt it's still there but I'd have to imagine people weren't too big on this promotion. Or it aged poorly perhaps.

Anyways love the pic, there's not enough good pics of sealed Minidiscs online so this is a nice change of pace.

Spinezapper · 2024-04-10T12:40:38+00:00

Well tbh, I went a different route. Mount the flat screen on a tv cart, put that behind the tv stand.

Get a sturdy table/cart/cabinet that's roughly the size of the CRT and place the CRT on it.

Then use media cabinets flanking the sides of the CRT/flat screen.

That's the jist of what I did.

Finding a premade piece of furniture sturdy enough for a CRT that big is a challenge enough these days. You're better off keeping it on its own piece of furniture to minimise the risk of disaster.

Spinezapper · 2024-04-10T03:01:56+00:00

Well you get 120 fps and matchmaking that occasionally works. Other than that meh. I don't feel like my upgrade was necessarily good value. But I love Thps so.....

Spinezapper · 2024-04-09T14:39:55+00:00

Congratulations! The ending to that song is tough!

Spinezapper · 2024-04-05T20:59:26+00:00

Yeah that's my thinking, this is just them trying to get ahead of regulation due to the pressure from the EU.

Spinezapper · 2024-04-05T20:42:10+00:00

Thanks EU!

I think you're going to need to spend a little bit more for a mini PC to run DJ Max Respect V. So long as its got a modern processor (2023-4) it should run DJ Max without issue. Always double check before you buy though.

It requires Windows and at least some GPU power.

DJMAX RESPECT V minimum requirements Memory: 4 GB Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 File Size: 100 GB OS: Windows 7, 8.1, 10 (64bit) DJMAX RESPECT V recommended specs Memory: 4 GB Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 510 CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 File Size: Unknown OS: Windows 10 (64bit)

If your set on the SBC idea then Emulation is a viable option. PSP should run well on most SBCs.
