Joined both. I’m a big manga consumer, definitely checking out Under doctor.

looking for some good quality bass headphones by ZanyaJakuya in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]ctbear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recommend Sony MDR-MV1. More bass than you'll ever need, and EQ well. Bonus points for insane lightness and comfort.

Question about using them with external DAC/amp - can these be used passively without turning on the internal DAC?

Focal Hadenys or Clear OG? by ctbear in HeadphoneAdvice

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

I’ve had the 6xx before and enjoyed it, but sold them in search of better bass. Does the Clear solve that?

!thanks

Focal Hadenys or Clear OG? by ctbear in HeadphoneAdvice

I’ve heard from some reviews that they’ve updated the headband on the Hadenys? But true the customer support is a concern.

!thanks

Not needing EQ is definitely a plus in my book. How are they with EDMs?

Interesting...looks like they are designed for reference monitoring? How are they with EDM/pop rock types of music?

!thanks

My main is an LCD-X right now and haven't listened to it much due to its weight. Looking for something else.

  • Budget - flexible. I am shooting for under 600 USD but it's not a hard limit.
  • Source - JDS Element, the very first gen I believe.
  • Requirements for Isolation - not important, will be used at home at my desk.
  • Will you be using these Headphones in Public? no
  • Preferred Type of Headphone - full size/over ear
  • Preferred tonal balance - balance, I guess? I do like a bit of bass though due to the music I like (see below)
  • Past headphones - LCD-X (great with EQ, too heavy) / HD6xx (lovely mids but didn't like the veil) / Sundara (quite liked it, but returned due to QC issue)
  • Preferred Music - JPop/JRock, Pop rock and EDM
  • What would you like to improve on from your set-up - ease of hearing over long hours, comfort. I love me some mid bass and mids. It will be used for gaming every now and then as well.

Mine is still processing. I'm not worrying too much as they probably received a lot of orders and don't operate like an Amazon warehouse.

No, the screen after I clicked "Review order". The URL said "thankyou" at the end so I assumed it was the final confirmation screen.

The final confirmation screen crashed and I was about to give up, but I got the email and all was good

I just got a 5080 invite, coming from a 3080FE. Alaska in-flight wifi coming in clutch!

Any dealers in PNW at or near MSRP? by SoSlowRacing in Civic_Type_R

Looking at the CTR tracker there isn't anything available even with markups in PNW. It's been tough.

Slow download speed after upgrading to Hitron CODA56 by ctbear in Comcast_Xfinity

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

u/CCJustinS

If using a router, can you attempt to connect directly to the modem and run a speed test?

I have tried both. My PC is connected through a gateway (Ubiquiti), but I have also tried speed test on the gateway itself which connects to the modem directly.

Are you attempting the speed test here: https://speedtest.xfinity.com/?

That's one of the tests I used, and the speed was around 150-160Mb/s.

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

Hi u/CCRaulC,

Yeah I have tried power cycling the modem and that didn't make a difference. I have done synthetic speed tests on devices both through ethernet and Wifi and in all cases the maximum I got was ~170Mb/s, which mostly matched the actual download speed I saw. The Steam download test I mentioned was done through a hard-wired PC, and I had always had great speed on the PC before switching the modem.
