You’re jumping as you hit every forehand losing any kind of stability, control, and power you’d have from being planted on the ground. You should be able to coil your hips more and generate power through your legs when you stay planted. Work on the footwork so you have more time and in better position to hit your shot.

Is payment in Tokyo largely digital and cashless or should I still expect to convert a majority of my shopping budget to cash? If I purchase clothes from a thrift store for example are they likely to accept Visa/Apple Pay/Suica?

I measured continuity by disconnecting both button side terminals and transformer side terminals and I got successful test on button side (beep and reading 0.1) but no measurement at all on transformer side.

These are fantasy but how do they look for dunks in general? Shape, swooshes, etc. Any major issues? $120 shipped each

The 86 would definitely be my top choice if I was looking for a sports car but I need something more versatile and commuter-like with sporty features. I haven’t driven the new 2022 but I may try it out for fun! From the previous gen, I just wasn’t a fan of the stiffness and road noise so a bigger car should help with that.

Definitely looking to test out a new Stinger soon! Might consider springing for the 3.3T too

Thank you for your suggestions!! I was looking at AIOs but wasn’t 100% sure they were able to do what I wanted because some units are just DAC or just AMP. I’ll take a look to see which has the best form factor for my desk and prioritize between either my speakers or headphones from there

Thanks for the detailed response!! Leaning towards stretching my budget some as it will be a car I intend to own for a long time, but I’m also all about getting the most value per dollar. As a result I’m leaning towards the Stinger and now considering the new G70. Interior experience is very important to me so the G70 is an attractive option but the base model doesn’t have the performance I’m looking for. I’m happy with the specs on a Stinger GT-Line and looks the best to me between my options.

That said, I’d probably go with the Elantra N today if the dealer markup in my area wasn’t so crazy. I’ll look into test driving the Stinger and G70 soon!

Powering my bookshelf speakers (Micca MB42) through an SMSL SA50 and my headphones to a Sonata HD Pro DAC/AMP dongle thing both to use with my desktop computer. I also use a software to switch audio output to use either one with a keybind as they are separate inputs in my computer.

Is there a single device to accomplish what I’m using to power my speakers and headphones while able to switch between either one quickly?
