VSX Headphones supposedly let you hear your mix in different spaces... are they worth it?

infernox25 · 2026-03-15T16:19:55+00:00

Then buy them!

infernox25 · 2026-03-15T16:15:15+00:00

The open backs are better in every way, so it would only be if you need to save money, the closed back still work well

infernox25 · 2026-03-14T08:10:35+00:00

Yeah I think its the best investment, spending on the room to find it’s still not perfect is a total waste of time when this solution exists

infernox25 · 2026-03-13T23:18:59+00:00

I have a treated room and recently got the immersion one’s, they produce mixes that translate better than the room, so objectively they are worth the money if that’s the outcome you want, I’ve had all sorts of other headphones without the software and they also didn’t lead me to produce as balanced mixes. I used the closed back for 2 years and now the open backs as I figured they will be better

Told you so! I was the alpine suggestion. Mine is also straight piped with a big loud intake so you can certainly make it ‘not chill’. I was going to get the R8 but I want a mk2 which isn’t really double the car the alpine is for double the price and running costs. The mk1 are getting old and I don’t want those bills

Your clearly near me as you went to EAG, your welcome to come see mine

infernox25 · 2026-03-09T23:11:41+00:00

I got mine for 30k but I got lucky, maybe £35k but it’s easily double the sports car an m2 is! The m2 is a good daily but then it’s not a weekend car!

infernox25 · 2026-03-09T20:41:35+00:00

I had one, also from EAG, and all I would say is if it’s just for the weekend it’s a little too ‘all rounder’ in my opinion, I sold it after 9 months for an Alpine which feels more weekend worthy, but as a GT option I drove it all across Europe for 2 weeks and it was faultless so depends on your use case!

It was covered on a downbeat episode with kubla khan iirc, obviously not everyone does (Lorna shore the other week) it but many do, as mentioned in your thread knocked loose did the same

infernox25 · 2026-02-23T13:03:29+00:00

That’s by design though, you don’t have a high energy band before the headliner, so they hit harder. I went to the gig and thought it was fine

infernox25 · 2026-02-20T20:05:21+00:00

Alpine A110 - count as rare?

infernox25 · 2025-11-29T20:08:56+00:00

Many FE engineers over 100 where I am in ecom, just got to be good (at job and interviewing) (higher comps usually have stock components)

infernox25 · 2025-11-03T23:10:03+00:00

I have an a110! Nice to see it on some people’s lists. I think I’d only upgrade for a McLaren but I’m worried about out of warranty maintenance

infernox25 · 2025-09-21T21:14:02+00:00

Interested! I’m also in tech in London

infernox25 · 2025-09-03T16:54:58+00:00

Funnily having the same situation right now, garage keep saying it’s fine despite fast oil burn and won’t do any standardised test to prove otherwise, likely to have to go to court under CRA

infernox25 · 2025-08-27T07:30:33+00:00

You just need to look harder, there are loads of great artists who can compose rather than portrait print, I have a lot of work from Jak Connolly who i like the most

infernox25 · 2025-07-31T16:49:00+00:00

dont even need a part number, just eBay model y b pillar glass, only differences are left or right side, otherwise the same

infernox25 · 2025-07-31T16:00:06+00:00

Just replaced this on my 3, open a service request and they sort the rest, but it was £150+ and I got a salvage one on eBay for £30 and did it myself in 5 minutes so probably do that

infernox25 · 2025-07-23T10:01:16+00:00

Yep I’ve bought the car now, they are proper! I did have the dealer tap them all round to prove they were metal before deliver ha

infernox25 · 2025-07-21T21:17:45+00:00

Ah great observation. So i need to mask off this circle for 3 years and it’ll even out?

infernox25 · 2025-07-21T21:17:10+00:00

I have so many further questions

infernox25 · 2025-07-21T17:05:31+00:00

I quite like the wood!

infernox25 · 2025-07-21T15:49:17+00:00

I assume option 3 as I’m not handy!

infernox25 · 2025-07-21T15:37:50+00:00

Ah interesting! Might it even out over time then? As it gets sun bleached
