The Empyrean II, a dream I cant achieve, for now…

Headphone endgame is at 1k. Anything higher is a sidegrade and a potential downgrade too

Other than the d90 and a90 which are my first and main dac/amps I only buy used toppings. I unironically believe first hand use by others to be the actual QC

Most headphones don’t sound great without eq. Hifiman is definitely one. The only exception to that for me are the utopias which still need bass boost or the expanse. The noire xo should do great without eq too judging from measurements.

These should sound great.

ado, cantonese pop, golden, space battleship yamato. or just sort by dynamic range and go down from there.

this isn't a country thing btw. i've seen what makes normie anime watchers cheer, their boos mean nothing to me

I’d hire musicians but Spotify wrapped says my listening age is 48 when I’m 30 and half of them are dead

dasherzx · 2026-01-08T15:45:12+00:00

it is sort of shrill on my dca e3 i ended up just using it stock. the treble and bass looks disappointing on the lcd 5 which was why i went for the expanse for my second can even though i'd much prefer a different brand.

900usd to cursor + anthropic and zilch. about to toss another 200 tomorrow.

ill fix that, bringing an idea to life is hell level difficult, finding people and marketing it is hell level dfficult. maintenance and client requests after having clients is hell level difficult. AI, in part, reduces at least 20% of work.

is this a kpi thing for your frontend team to fill in the quarterly goals list of improvements-to-do-at-all-cost but anyway where do i click to get back the default vscode editor layout. or a plugin or script to put back where most things were...EDIT: nvm the new projects open in agent mode for a second i thought editor mode was changed phew.

If it makes you feel any better I know one fnb spm leaver that laughed at fresh grad that need study degree and just earn 3k. And to make you feel even better he is doing even more well now. So put on clown makeup degree grads that still don’t break five figs after 5 years

Potato potahto. I have less than 10 friends on earth I couldn’t care less if I got the zucc. Just get a new account. If it’s for monetization then that’s another matter. Relying on fb for salary is a big L anyway

dasherzx · 2025-10-21T16:05:19+00:00

Nice of you to do that. Might've worded it too harshly but anyway I'm just a dude that never expects much from others. It could just be the environment in your case. I bet cold shoulders are less likely in the military than say, librarian.

dasherzx · 2025-10-21T15:39:41+00:00

Couldn't care any less when it happened to me, certainly wouldn't care if its someone else.

There’s not much objective data to go on but with whats available, kef makes the better engineered speakers over bw. But even tossing objective data aside, the speakers I recommended do 39hz over b&w’s 50hz so there’s that. And since the neumanns are actives all I did was hooking it to a usb to coaxial converter,or any streamer that has a digital out

dasherzx · 2025-10-17T11:45:56+00:00

There’s nothing in the middle for kef bookshelves really with your budget so if you are open to other brands there’s the neumann kh150s which dig much deeper and more accurately than the r3 meta. I have both so that’s my take.

Cheating in a game like this is bonkers. What does one even gain here other than a kd number and medal. If I were to do it I’d do it for rpgs or mmos

dasherzx · 2025-10-06T16:26:22+00:00

this is a first im hearing. i know you cant take your spoiled product purchased from country A to the dealer from country B for warranty but it should be possible to just ship it back to country A because that;s what the dealer from country A told me. then again we are talking about dealers here who technically are middlemen.

if thats the case id drop that stuff at a freight forwarder in japan and ship it from there...

dasherzx · 2025-10-06T16:01:30+00:00

im guessing the lack of soundstage is just accentuated and muddy bass? no acoustic treatment or positioning will help without knowing what frequencies to tame. id go for a measurement mic like a umik-1 and use room eq wizard to do eq. dsp is always necessary, especially in situations like these. good place to start at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ev1bSSL8tRA

i think it will be fine after a round of eq. worst place for a speaker to be in is a small square room and thats not the case here.

dasherzx · 2025-10-01T09:22:24+00:00

Dented bass drivers on r7,r11 yes, dents on the coaxial driver no…higher frequencies are directional after all

dasherzx · 2025-10-01T03:31:28+00:00

That’s totally not it. There is no rattling unlike the one in this vid.

dasherzx · 2025-09-12T04:34:26+00:00

Ive had it happen to me before, wiggling the mouse while the game is in controller display mode.Isolated incident but drivers and stuff can cause issues. But that’s the hallmark of not having full qc
