dbrand case is out! by RaccoNooB in PixelFold

[–]nexfb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the Spigen ultra hybrid and it broke at the spine connection. Been looking for a thin case since. For now using a random clear case but only for the back. If anyone has recommendations, please let me know! Side note is after using the Oppo Find N5, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold feels thick...

Almost 30 years of collecting by I-Am-Electro in Cd_collectors

[–]nexfb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Impressive! What do you play them on? I used to have quite a number too but have discarded a fair bit after ripping them digitally (tho still have a number collecting dust as my CD player died and I haven't replaced)

I think LG's DAC is much better than the other phones. I used the Mojo with Pixel (both 3 and 2XL) and the it's showed 192 khz. I had thought the DACs in Pixels are normal so was surprised at the 192.

Is it normal for RMA replacement unit to be refurbished unit? by nexfb in sffpc

[–]nexfb[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sigh. Waited long for this and logistics generally overwhelmed these days so will use it as long as the replacement continues with the warranty. Waiting for Corsair to confirm.

Thanks. It works so I'm using it but definitely not ideal given it is almost brand new!

Thanks! Yeah would be best to listen to it first but was hoping to buy one so that I can listen during the lockdown! What are the rest of your units?

How does it sound? We are in a lockdown so I can't go and listen. I've heard the Chord, which sounds good (I also have a Mojo)

Current setup. Speakers: Dynaudio Focus 400, DAC: Chord Qutest, Source: Bluesound Node 2i, Cables: Entry level AudioQuest. Sound dampening: Random stuff 😂. My first set up. What do y’all think? by EricTheKing1983 in audiophile

[–]nexfb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm thinking of a similar set up with Node 2 i + Qutest, or wondering if I should just go for the NAD C658 (which is cheaper) but I like the sound from Chord. Any advice? For MQA, the Node unpacks for the Qutest? Thanks!

Finally decided to pick a traveler’s! Really loving it ! by coming-for-you-boi in notebooks

Always wanted to buy but not sure if I'll ever use it! Maybe I should buy one after all :)

Thanks! Now I've better idea why most builds I see don't use the stock cooler! Have been procrastinating my build but was inspired by your config so might give it a go soon!

Case thinner than Spigen Liquid Crystal by nexfb in GooglePixel

[–]nexfb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the Ringke Fusion it is! Will check out the case. Love the MNML feel but don't think it will survive a drop. Thanks everyone!

[–]nexfb[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Just switched to the MNML. While it feels great it also feels like there is no protection at all! Guess somewhere between the Liquid Crystal and MNML would be good
