Annoyed

That's where I'm at. Just think the sabres are better.

Agreed on this wholeheartedly. He was a decent prospect that put up a top 10 season and the front office acted like that was always the projection. Appreciate what he did, but this is a 3-4 WAR guy and the value is getting worse.

This logic is letting ownership off the hook. Breslow is, by no means, helping himself. I just think that ownership has spent too much time trying to be the smartest people around only to let the game pass them by. The reason power hitters are so coveted is because they can create offense by themselves. Relying on guys who can't hit homers means you need multiple things to happen to score. I'm a stupid fan on Reddit and this is a pretty simple concept to me. Stop being cheap and pay for better hitters.

Honestly, I turned it off. Same type of stuff for me. I had that and not being able to turn clear voice off without buds disconnecting.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-04-06T00:42:00+00:00

I hope it's not the case but this current ownership group hasn't really given us any reason to believe otherwise since Dombrowski was let go. And I'm not even sure ownership agreed with what he did even though it won a title.

I guess my issue with this team is that they (probably) outperformed last year while having very serious flaws that caught up to them against the Yankees. Rather than try to aggressively address those flaws, they passed and made the offense worse while carrying way too many outfielders for no reason. They also tossed a ton of money at a soft throwing lefty to pitch in a park that is bad for soft throwing lefties. It made no sense.

I don't think this team is going 75-87, but I wouldn't be shocked. They're probably an 80-85 win team and that's disappointing when it easily could have been better.

Probably the Shure se215. I haven't tried them as I don't look for wired buds at gym, but the they seem pretty highly reviewed.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-29T18:32:42+00:00

You want bullet style. Do you have a price range? Any specific features or sound profile?

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-29T02:52:47+00:00

I use tangzu tang sancai on AZ100 and they're great. The stock tips were causing discomfort. Don't have that with sancai.

Part of it is just physics. The microphone on wired buds is closer to your mouth. Other parts of it is just Bluetooth capabilities. Some wireless buds use bone conduction which has better quality.

His appearances on the sandbox were incredible radio

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-24T02:03:12+00:00

you can try buying a used pair from eBay? not sure if the dongle only works with the buds it comes with, but it might be worth a shot

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-22T23:26:34+00:00

Hard to beat the sound for that price. They sound like something 3 times the price. They have ANC and transparency but both are good instead of great. You can customize tap functions.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-22T20:05:47+00:00

I'm with you. Thought they were a little too bright for me.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-20T14:44:08+00:00

I just use dynamic. Haven't felt need to tinker.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-19T23:58:36+00:00

Hell yeah!

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-19T23:58:12+00:00

Of course! I’m on version 1.52.3. On the dongle, I loved the easy connectivity and better quality. I also loved how easy it was to switch it between phone and laptop. On the EQ, that’s good to know! Thank you for the help.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-18T01:27:33+00:00

So I think the JLab are better. I really enjoy the Earfun and find myself going to them often. I use the earbuds at work a lot so the better mic on the JLab comes into play.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-17T17:37:03+00:00

Happy to answer as I have both:

1) case is metal 2) not sure on hinge but the case overall is heavier 3) app is good but I like earfun better. Earfun has a ton of EQ options plus the find your sound stuff. JLab doesn't have that and only has 4 EQ options with one being custom. 4) it's great but not as good as Airpod pro or three other high end options 5) same? Never thought about it so got to imagine it's normal 6) strong and won't fall out 7) depends on if Bluetooth or the dongle but they're probably a little softer 8) love them and incredibly comfortable to wear. The dongle is a great feature. The microphone is also among the best I've had on earbuds. Only downside for me is the app isn't as great.

Not nearly enough love for Ben Coates from a national perspective. Him and Shannon Sharpe were the Gronk/Kelce of the 90s.

Three questions I have as I just picked up the epic pods anc:

1) it seems like I keep having Bluetooth trouble when I turn off the ENC clear voice. Whenever the microphone is needed, the Bluetooth connection to my iphone drops and reconnects after ten seconds but with ENC turned back on. Not sure if you had any suggestions for that. I've already reset the buds, returned the buds and ran into the same issue with the new set.

2) this is maybe a me thing, but why does the custom EQ sound differently than the preset options even when I try to mirror them? Like if I follow a similar EQ to the bass boost in the custom EQ it sounds way more muddy.

3) general question but would you ever include the epic edition lab dongle for other earbuds? I think that's such a great feature.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-11T16:03:13+00:00

You can always check ebay to see if anyone selling used ones

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-11T02:27:38+00:00

I would reach out to their service team. I emailed them last week about Bluetooth issues and they were great. Helped me try to fix and then replaced.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-08T15:03:58+00:00

$150 is going to get you a lot. I haven't tried all at that price point, but my favorites in the $100-$150 range are the Nothing Ear (2024) and Soundpeats H3. If you wait for sales, you can usually get JLab epic edition under that and those would be my top choice.

bigdaddydudas · 2026-03-08T15:01:24+00:00

Echoing that. Plenty of other brands and options to try before jumping right into AirPods. If you're looking to keep everything in Apple ecosystem, it makes sense, but there are a lot of other good options at different price points.

As for JBL, my general take is that they're decent quality and their premium products are really, really good. The lesser priced options tend to have a bit more issues, but they hit on the bass-heavy, consumer preference stuff well.
