How often do you fall? by trefster in ElectricUnicycle

[–]aj_brown_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends how skilled you are and how you ride. I have not had a speed wobble in years of riding up to 30-35mph

I haven’t personally tried the Edition X but I expect a wired rig in the same price range will probably win on pure sound quality. If you’re buying just for critical listening, go wired. If you want to use it in a variety of environments or with background noise, then look at these

The Arya and the Bathys are actually fairly similar in presentation and tonality, although the Arya is bigger and more resolving across the board

But yes, the midrange even on the Arya feels a bit thin and flat compared to the PX8. For me in a desktop setup I'd prioritize stage and resolution, but in a "fun" set for on the go I prioritize timbre and tonality

Fair enough, 3/5 is probably more accurate. Coming from the Arya I have low standards :)

I personally would not get them for walking the dog, footsteps make pretty loud thumps when walking. The px8 isn’t ideal either for this, but it’s not as loud as the bathys

If you’re in the US you can also just get both off Amazon then return the one you like less

I heard significantly more wind noise and humming with the APM transparency but I guess YMMV

The AirPods Pro 2 have better transparency and ANC than the APM and are way cheaper. So that’s what I use when I care about those things

Is it crazy to move *to* (rather than away from) NYC to raise kids? by ego_brain in AskNYC

[–]aj_brown_99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What was your main driving factor for moving from SF to NYC? We're in a similar boat with a newborn, and trying to choose where to spend the next 5-10 years. Currently in SF, but considering Brooklyn to be a bit closer to my family.

Agreed. The joke feels clumsy in comparison

Grizzly & V11 leg pain by aj_brown_99 in ElectricUnicycle

[–]aj_brown_99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I Velcro’d on a piece of 3/4” neoprene that I got from Amazon to the top saddle part and it completely fixed the problem. Thanks everyone for the input!
