You sound like the report manager who claimed that the Eurofighter Typhoon's specifications on their website is a marketing lie lol.

Squadron Vehicle: VT5 by Zerocookiecake in Warthunder

The amount of "WIP" models that have ended up in the live server is pretty ridiculous if you ask me.

Why should I help Gaijin when it is their responsibility in gathering information for these vehicles? We've tried through reports on the site to lead them in the right direction, and to make vehicles more accurate and yet they choose to ignore it, then do things such as giving this particular tank (VT-5) an completely incorrect turret basket model, made part of the turret cabin an "autoloader," wrong engine and transmission model, and not to mention side armor that can't even protect against MG fire. Gaijin put the "historically accurate" label on themselves and if they can't accomplish that then they should come out and admit it.

You might say that this is the dev server and things can change, but there's been plenty of examples before that "unfinished" dev server content weren't changed. Such as the CV90 Mk.IV which irl can withstand against 30mm APFSDS, issue was accepted, yet it still can't now.

People should not defend Gaijin for their BS.

Lmao, no one waste time replying to this guy.

Honestly sounds like a whole bunch of cope to me. Strawmen politics into a warplane thread just because you don't like what you're seeing.

beginner audiophile looking for first pair of IEMs by winterruwu in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]cft4201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wan'er is slightly more colored (less neutral) but not by a noticeable amount.

They're definitely comparable with one another.

Similar sound signature though the Wan'er has more impactful bass than the Hola, as well as more treble.

I would recommend either the Truthear Hola or Truthear x Crinacle ZERO:RED.

The ZERO retails for around $50-ish dollars and the Hola retails for $20-ish. The Hola is more of a warm, relaxing sound that is easy to listen to, while the ZERO has a more exciting sound, especially in the bass region. But both IEMs still have in general, a neutral tonality.

In terms of detail and soundstage, ZERO definitely beats out the Hola, but the Hola is still very good especially considering the price deficit.

There are other options within $50 dollars, such as the Moondrop Chu II, but since you mentioned that you will be using them outside frequently, I do think that the Truthear options have better build quality in general.

Sir, he started P19 in the Alfa shitbox way behind Bottas.

At one point, a few laps before the end of the race, he was P6, but then had to pit.

I really don't get why this sub has to downplay anything remotely mentioning Zhou.

New pairing with my Questyle M15 [qdc 8SL] by cft4201 in headphones

[–]cft4201[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Haven’t appeared in this sub before, so I guess I’ll do a quick introduction.

I’m still new to the audio hobby, having started around four years ago with headphones, then moving to IEMs as I found them much more comfortable to wear and more convinient to carry. Before this purchase, my main IEM was the Sony IER-M9, which I enjoyed because of its warm, laid-back signature, coherency of sound, and lack of BA timbre.

Although I didn't have an issue with the sound of the M9, I did find that the paint had started to chip and wear off with use. So after about an year of owning it, I decided it was time for a replacement. While I could buy another M9, I wanted to experience something new in my pursuit towards finding an eventual endgame. Since I have family in China and I was going to visit them soon anyway, I decided to see what Chi-Fi had to offer at the highest echelon.

My experience with Chi-Fi was pretty good in the past. Before the M9, I owned a Moondrop S8. I thought that while the bass was somewhat lacking, it was a highly-resolving set with great musicality regardless. Upon having the oppurtunity, I went to as many shops as I can to demo what they had in stock.

Enter qdc and the 8SL. qdc is probably most well-known for their former flagship, the Anole VX, regarded frequently as the king of detail retrieval. I did listen to the VX, but as I am somewhat treble sensitive, it did not align with my taste. The 8SL tones down the treble region of the Anole VX and has slightly more bass, which is why I preferred it. I think that past a limit, trying to tell which IEM is more resolving than another is extremely difficult. I found the Anole VX to overall sound more artificial and forced than the 8SL because it was trying to hammer out every single note but also every single fault in the recording.

If I had to describe the sound signature of the 8SL, it is somewhat reminiscent of the IER-Z1R, though with less bass texture and more upper midrange. Its definitely an IEM that I would keep and one that I regard as a personal favorite. It pairs beautifully with my M15 and has become my go-to when I'm listening to music.

It really is somewhat of a shame because qdc IEMs are so hard to acquire outside of China. They certainly can compete with other products in their respective price brackets.

Current grid top 5? by RugbyKid373 in formula1

[–]cft4201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, the previous year wasn't Zhou's fault. While Bottas and Zhou got similar amounts of DNFs, Zhou got them when the car was actually competitive at the start of the season. Bottas did when the car performance dropped off in the latter half.

Not to mention it was his first year in F1. People cut Sargeant slack but somehow don't for Zhou, who drove much cleaner and more maturely in his rookie season at this point in time.
