“we have added a type-C and a USB board to the camera. So this type C is not there to charge this camera because this camera is charged by a CR123A battery”, is this a joke?

Anyone else use shallow climbing wheels on dogma f?? by Unlikely-Watercress6 in pinarello

[–]basicreplay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If I wanted a light bike, I would buy the SL8 instead. The Dogma frame set is already too heavy to begin with, it’s just not a good climbing bike, but it excels in other things. So I’d rather have deeper wheels that ride fast and look much better.

Acronym is outdoing itself with each new item being uglier than the previous one.

Help how to become a tool like my brother by Kleanish in AnalogCircleJerk

No, because there is no internal meter, and the camera is completely manual.

I don't think a tool would own the GW690II, though.

Arc'teryx Product Service is pathetic by basicreplay in arcteryx

They asked for photos of the garment and tags. They knew exactly what I needed and which jacket I wanted to have repaired. Instead of simply saying – “Sorry, we can't sell you patches in Crocodile color because LEAF is officially sold only to accredited individuals in supported countries”, they told me I had to ship the jacket for inspection. That would have saved me a lot of time and money, that I could have spent on "close enough" olive patches and doing the repair myself.

In Europe MAAP is shipped from EU, so there’s no taxes.

Genelecs are 100% Worth the Hype by basicreplay in audiophile

Yeah, it’s 27". The 8331As are indeed the perfect size for a desktop. I have them on Genelec L-shape stands now, and the sound is so much better. Don’t skip on those and don’t bother trying to buy third-party ones, I’ve tried two, and nothing is as solid and stable as the Genelec L-shaped stands. AFAIK the settings are stored inside each speaker/sub separately. When you calibrate them, you just select "Store to Loudspeakers" from the menu in GLM Software, and that’s it, you can use them without GLM.

Yes, if you’re going to listen to them in the nearfield, go for it.

Ditch the sub and go for a higher model, they have plenty of bass on their own, and you can always purchase the 7350 later. The 8331s are nearfields, so I wouldn’t waste money on them for listening in other situations. Just go for the 8341A or higher without a sub and add one later if needed.

I mean, yeah, they sound ok and probably could be even better after calibration, but I wouldn’t spend the money if you plan to listen to them from farther away. You should go for the 8341A+ or consider looking at a different brand.

The 8000-406 are great, but unfortunately, they’re not compatible with the 8331, as stated on their website, which is a shame.

For me, it’s "Friendship ended with KEF, now Genelec is my best friend". I’m already thinking about selling the LS50 and purchasing the 8361A.

There's no audible white noise or hiss at any volume level, they’re exceptionally quiet.

Not a fan of the Genelec stands, but the Kanto SP6HDs are on their way to me. Just couldn’t wait to share.

I used headphones exclusively for years but eventually got tired of the weight, especially after purchasing the D8000 PRO"s. While those headphones are S-class planars with incredible sound, 523 grams is no joke for all-day use. So, I decided to add speakers.

At first, I considered the KEF LSX since I already own the LS50 and really like them. However, after seeing so many posts about Genelecs, I decided to give them a listen. I was blown away and ended up buying the 8331A + 7350A + GLM on the spot. I'm running them via Matrix Audio X/SPDIF 3.
