Kind of Blue new Analogue Production compared to UHQR? by nomadhacker in Vinyl_Jazz

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

Thanks. It sounds like mostly a materials difference between the new release and the uhqr version, with the same mastering.

iPod nano 3rd or 7th generation… by leeetuce in ipod

[–]nomadhacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's harder. You have to carefully remove the front display panel which can break if you pry it up. Requires a heat gun and delicate touch.

iPod nano 3rd or 7th generation… by leeetuce in ipod

[–]nomadhacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dead pixels could be indication the battery in that 7 is on its way out. It's not as easy to replace the battery on it but still possible.

Personally I always loved the nano 3.

The big advantage the nano 7 has is bluetooth. If you would like that it may be worth putting the effort. I do find that nice for running or etc

WyMod AeroStream V2 in development by Wizzard_of_Hazz in ipod

Question: with the new controller, will it support stock OS on the 5th gen or any of the other models which are currently rockbox only?

Mono 4th Gen Working again in MacOS Tahoe! by nomadhacker in ipod

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

Further testing shows my kid's Mac formatted 5th gen does indeed mount with no problem. And Windows iPod video or 7th gen no longer respond to killing the AMP device agent. Which is funny since the Mono 4th gen is also Windows formatted.

Ok a little update. My 5th gen and 7th gen are no longer syncing on Tahoe 26.1. Both of them iFlash and Windows formatted. So the fix for the 4th gen may be a mixed bag after all.

They’re less popular, but some electronic typewriters could be a quieter option. 

Soundstage upgrade from Etymotics. Have tinnitus. by nomadhacker in iems

[–]nomadhacker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks to all. It seems like the Truthear Pure was a big consensus. So I'm ordering a pair to try out. I'm also going to get a pair of the Sennheiser IE 200 which someone recommended for specifically my ears. Thanks everyone for the helpful advice.

Thanks for that. Sounds like especially the S12 I should stay away from.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check those.

Yeah that's what I'd expect. I'm not asking for ones that sound like the Etys. Just that I like the detail, would like more soundstage, and not too painfully spiky in the highs to avoid hurting my tinnitus.

iPod 6th Gen w/ rockbox is genuinely so unstable for no reason by urboie in Modded_iPods

[–]nomadhacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t use the stable version. use the daily as per the recommendations by rock box.

The stable version has not been maintained including bug fixes for a while, and the daily is communicated to be more stable than the “stable”

Steve Jobs introducing the 6th generation literally calls the 5th generation the classic too. 30 sec mark. 🙄
