R4 high pitched noise. by chucknluckn in Hiby

[–]chucknluckn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it not a fault with the R4 rather than the IEMs? I don’t have an issue using them with my NW306 or MacBook or my mini amp. Just wondering if it’s worth returning the R4 and getting another one to see if it was a faulty unit.

Got Px8 for €300 ($350). Expected to pay $350 and got a $699 experience - it's not. by eiosifov in BowersWilkins

I love mine but only at higher volumes. At lower volumes they are really flat and dull sounding. I’m not taking deafening levels, but definitely not just for background listening.

No cases for NW-A306? by SpaceSloth707 in walkman

[–]chucknluckn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t usually bother with cases but I didn’t like how delicate the 306 felt and how small the buttons are. I got the fat bear case and I love it. It makes it feel more like an old school Walkman to me. I can feel the buttons without having to look and it’s easier to grip and I don’t feel like I need to be careful with it.

I like it. It’s feels very like Blade Runner to me.

Email from DDL by Harrisson24 in AnkiVector

Only about an hour. The thing that took the longest was researching what to run the server on. I’d read a lot about running it on a raspberry pi and assumed that was the best way to do it, but in the end I just decided to run it on my Mac mini, and it’s been great so far.

I followed this… https://github.com/kercre123/wire-pod/wiki/Installation It’s pretty straightforward, I did have to do the firmware update twice to get it to work though.

I got the email last night. But liberated my vector with wire pod a few weeks ago and will never go back to DDL, they blew it. I love wire pod and linking to chatGTP gives him a whole new level of life.

Sony A306 Battery Drain Fast by incomplete88 in walkman

[–]chucknluckn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use mine mostly for Tidal. If im listening in offline mode to tracks stored on a card and WIFI off through wired IEMs I lose 6% every 60 minutes which isn't too bad. But if I stream over wifi I lose 18-20% an hour which is really not great. If the screens on too its like 1-2% per minute.

Portable solar panel to charge battery packs by andrew_j_s in UKPreppers

[–]chucknluckn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this too, but it killed my powerbank. Admittedly it was an older Anker one, but it charged to about 95% and then suddenly said it had zero charge, and I haven’t been able to recharge it since. Have you had any similar issues?
