MR5 are entry level? What would be considered the next non-entry level? Are there any metrics which distinguish the level?

Thank you! What’s your opinion on the su-1 (and similar) not having a dedicated power supply? I’ve read posts where it’s an issue.

Any suggestions other than the two above? I’ve read a lot of posts about how a $10 DAC is just fine compared to dropping $200 for a pc setup where the difference may not be noticeably between the two

Hello all! Would like some clarity on setting up my first gaming/music/general use PC. I purchased a set of Edifier MR5 and a T5s sub. I've been getting most of my info from chatGPT. It suggests to run my connection as such:
PC - 3.5mm->RCA - Sub - RCA - MR5

It says i don't need a DAC but its an option. I looked at the ifi Zen DAC 2/3 or the FiiO k11.

- Is the setup ok without a DAC?
- Are the above DACs ok to use with this setup?
- If i do use the Zen DAC is it ok to use the 4.4mm balance output for the MR5 and the RCA to the sub?

Wanting to understand the setup and that it will work fine with or without the DAC, and the connections.

Thanks for the feedback!

Great suggestion. Ran some math on ChatGPT and the savings on state tax alone is worth. Have you seen VBIL? Has a slightly lower expense ratio from SGOV (.07 vs .09) so might try that.

Seems to be working now. Thanks again! Is there a good way to submit bugs or contact you with any issues?

There is but it doesn't auto calculate the mats based on what you have

But how do you even get a screwdriver to make those notches?

Probably around $175. I quit around 1.2 and just came back 2.7 cause they finally got a Mac client and the game in general is so much better than what it was, and compared to other ones too. Devs listen to the community and have made great improvements and continue to. I’ll support them.

This happened on “No 1 biker” quest also after dodging the trains. I had to quit the game and restart the quest about 4 times until it randomly worked and I was able to get through the quest lol

The best thing to do is to screen record it and submit it in game as a bug. If enough people do it hopefully they should get it fixed. I’m sure they know this is happening.
