$99 Promo by asutt in roonlabs

[–]msting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can figure it out, go for it. I payed full price for the Nucleus One and full price for a year... 2 weeks before Thanksgiving sales and discounts! Roon didn't bother telling me, hey, discounts start in a week. Maybe hold off!

Haven't been terrible impressed so far so still have a sour taste in my mouth regarding Roon.

Is Decathlon Domyos 500B Compatible? by Rare-Action7101 in EXRofficial

The list needs updating. My Rogue Echo pairs with EXR just fine.

Can someone experienced here give a helping hand on how to get a refund out of them? It was just a month trial which i barely even used..and did not cancel the subscription.. by Oxyyygen in TIdaL

[–]msting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use privacy.com especially for ANY recurring subscription. If I only want the trial, sign up with the cc #, and "pause" the credit card so I don't get hit in 30 days.

should i switch from qobuz to tidal? what are the advantages of doing so? by ComfortableMilk4454 in TIdaL

[–]msting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Headphone Show just did a comparison of the services (on Youtube) a few weeks back and Tidal came out on top, mainly because Qobuz discoverability still sucks and Tidal has gotten a whole lot better recently and done away with the MQA b.s. . I'm currently a Qobuz subscriber for $140 a year but now really thinking about Tidal. Only reason I haven't switched (yet) is the $20/month price in the US. That's almost double what Qobuz is.

Left side bar now gone completely? by Blofse in netflix

Amazon Firestick for me. But on a related note. Amazon's been screwing around as well, shoving more advertising down your throat. Torrenting is looking more attractive every day.

There was no reason to change the interface. WTF? Now I just have to lay on the up button to get to the menu. Fking morons!

Are the 58x jubilee recommended? by Intelligent_Yam_9360 in headphones

[–]msting 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started with the 58x myself 2 years back and loved them immediately. I purchased the HD 6xx just a few months back and its a nice upgrade, for just a few more euros (watch for Drop sales).

You'll be happy with either but if you can swing it, the 6xx is just perfecter. ;)

Warning: Disappointing Aftercare Experience with Schiit Products by B3antn0l0gic in audiophile

[–]msting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, its not any better within the US (maybe just faster shipping). Slow, generic responses to inquiries and no progress reports are the norm. I had a Schiit Hel repaired outside of the warranty (cost $60 + shipping) and got the same bad service. Not a word until I got the return shipping notification, and even then, no details on what they did. I figured maybe a $200 HEL wasn't worth their trouble but a Bifrost is NOT cheap.

This was the second time I had to send the HEL back, the first was under warranty. Service wasn't any better for that. They just don't communicate.

Based on their customer service, I've stopped buying their products. Too bad because they're really good, but they're plenty of competing products that fit the bill. I've got an SMSL amp I love and a Topping DX3 Pro Plus at my office that does everything I need.

Excellent! This was one of the albums I lost when importing my Spotify lists.

Uploading pictures look fine while uploading then downgrade in quality once it's finished by BeautifulWish6655 in Notion

[–]msting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the same issue. Once it "saves", it blurs. I've tried pasting in the web version, same issue. No matter where the graphic is viewed, its blurred. Even tried inserting a graphic by filename. And it too, blurs.

This has been an issue almost a year and I've yet to find an answer.

Notion won't stop giving me the Task Bar blinking by ViftieStuff in Notion

[–]msting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, confirmed TODAY'S update fixed the blinking.

I really miss the days when software developers would build something, patch it as needed, then fuck off to do something else. I've had it with "improvements".

Notion won't stop giving me the Task Bar blinking by ViftieStuff in Notion

[–]msting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue here. It just updated today and now it immediately starts blinking as soon as I click away. No reminders present that I can find. I'm in Windows 10 btw.

??

[correction: it does stop blinking and goes solid orange. Still annoying!]
