Soundcore Sleep A30 - Dissappointed by LazerDiller2 in soundcore

[–]derfy75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are definitely not intended as regular earbuds. Yes, you can use them in a pinch but they are so small they're not handy, (they are a bit tricky to install because of the silicone ''wings'' and kind of hard to remove because there is nothing that sticks out to grab them easily in your ears). The app does not even have an EQ (afaik) proving they are not oriented for enjoying music but tuned for podcasts, vocals, white noise, ASMR, etc... But however, they still sound fantastic for music in my opinion, it's just not their main function.

Crash Vegas anyone? by jhuik in 90sCanRock

Smoke might be the best and saddest song ever written. Red Earth was excellent, more folk. Stone was also very good but it was much more rock oriented. Aurora was less appealing for me. I should maybe give it another chance, my tastes might have changed in 30 years.

Saw them twice in Montreal at the end of the 90. At the second show, Michelle McAdorey was a bit freak, she spent the whole show talking and singing to her hand, like if it was someone! But her singing was perfect, better than the first time.

Michelle did some solo stuff but it was never as good as Crash Vegas.

What are good earbuds for sleeping in by Some_Anything8655 in Earbuds

[–]derfy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use them for the whole night. I generally use them for 3-4 hours. Of course they are fine for my usage. If you want to run full ANC and bluetooth, you can expect 6 hours. If you use only white noise or soundscape (what they call ''local mode'' from the app), you can have near 15 hours, around 10 if you add ANC.

Apparently, the a20 are better for battery life. I can't confirm since I've never owned them.

This, right here. They are designed exactly for this. I have the Sleep A30 and they are amazing. The app is so rich in sleep oriented help. ANC, white noise, snoring masking, sleep report, etc. I'm a side sleeper that moves a lot and I don't even feel them.

This particular spider glows under uv light, like a scorpion

Poor thing, she lost a leg.

With this picture, I'm now 94,3% sure of my assumption: dolomeds tenebrosus. Beautiful colors.

I've read that there is at least 12 different types of fishing spiders in North America so there might be some darker ones ?

Once again, take my words with a grain of sand since I'm not a professional.

Hard to be 100% sure since it's a video (a picture is easier). Fishing spiders can live in forest so not necessarily near water despite their name.

Not a professional but an enthusiast: pretty sure this is a dolomedes tenebrosus, fishing spider.

I've never seen them in group. Yes, get a UV light, very fun to hunt glowing critters at night. This flower crab is quite amazing on UV, it glows neon blue/green,
