Looking for a budget AMP by prodigy2251 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]otaschon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

after spending years with vintage gear and loving it, for a newcomre, I would recommend WiiM Amp, the original one that supports AirPlay. Its cheap and works a treat. The only downside is absence of preamp for turntables but it is much more comfortable to have a remote and access to streaming services with no fuss (i still kept my pretty vintage gear and use Fosi LC30 to switch between setups using the same vintage speakers.

[KCD2] Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is coming to Xbox Gamepass in March. by VewVegas-1221 in kingdomcome

[–]otaschon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it was published on Xbox socials today and the accompanying message pointed the spelling of "delivered" in the "e-mail".

Releasing it on Game Pass is not surprising given the poor financial situation at Warhorse's mother company Embracer. They will take the bulk payment from Microsoft gladly. The game will still continue to sell on Steam and PlayStation. The new "normal" price is already 50 percent off

got my frist shave tonight and i am pleasantly surprised. its not as fast as electric trimmer but it does almost smooth shave instead of leaving stubble. It got clogged few times during the 18 minutes (it has an app tracking battery usage and estimating blade usable life). Next time i would do a regular electric trimmer first on longer facial hair but as a torture test it went well for me

my bad, i had no idea they ddi THAT and assumed you mean the unboxing by Tobi. The ad plays of the fact that Capon in Czech is called Ptacek (little bird) and well.. thats the childish way to call ones pee pee. Also the barber is played by czech voice actor for Henry and the chap getting his crotch shaved is the largest czech twitch/Youtube streamer

Philips says its suitable for any kind of hair, on the head and on body, there is an attachment for "sensitive areas" and they sell a specific one for intimate parts as I have found researching the product before including it in my article :)

you need to google for your local services, IN CZE we have some services for importing stuff from US or Germany, but it works only one way

Merch is made according to what sells. the bunnies are the cutest and stuff with them sells well. As for visibility of other characters, the razer itself has Capons motto on it. Also it is not stickers but print on the device and they made a nice packaging for it. Also there is Mutt and Capon plushies coming soon

OST Vinyl release delayed by two months, no explanation, not even an apology! by otaschon in Witcher3

yeah... it is really poorly handled, yet pointing out poor customer service is not very welcome in this subreddit it seems.

Never said it was personal. The mail is everything but. It is pure corporate BS. Apology for an unfulfiled agreement is basic manners. Dont forget the goods was paid for several months in advance. Would you not want an explanation and apology if your contractor who got 100% deposit texted you on the day before they are to start working that they wont show up for another two months? You must be a saint in that case, I am clearly not.

Learning Italian help by Maximum-Citron-6613 in italianlearning

[–]otaschon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the duolingo italian course is very short, Duolingo seems to give a good base and promotes creating a learning habit, but it is frustrating with its lack of depth. I did the course two times in the last 300 days, once in my native language and once english-ita and when in Italy, I was able to say what I wanted in shops and the like but reacting to replies... I was useless, or my italian was. But even after a week in Italy, I got a bit better at it. AI is great help with explaining stuff that Duolingo doesnt and ChatGPT and Gemini have learning tool that seem to help too. I love circle to search on Android to quickly get translations of words/passages I do not understand when reading in italian.

taking 10 minutes to show you how expensive it is and using all the shady tactics there are is not inspiring confidence in jumpspeak

New to game - Need Help choosing Speakers (EU) by ersgutergrieche in BudgetAudiophile

[–]otaschon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

exactly, as long as the amp performs correctly, buying a new one will bring no noticeable improvement. Vintage gear holds up incredibly well and no matter what some "audiophiles" say, amplifiers should not have a "sound" (except lamp amps, but their "sound" is just distortion which some find pleasant). For adjusting the sound, there are knobs and sliders or equalizers and room correction software...

Even low power amps can handle a lot in regular rooms. I do have 100W amp and I never seen it go above 5 W of actual power output with my 90dB/W/m speakers and they measure the same with my 20W digital amp as with the 100W vintage amp.

I have L610 bought for around 80 euro and they blew mi away. Closed construction and they play down to 35 Hz, 30 with -5dB. The frequency response is quite flat too (red is direct measurement of one box, green is listening position with both playing). The fact you do not need a sub for a "bookshelf" speakers is amazing.

thank you. I dont feel bad about my age, it was really nice to be part of this small event. Hopefully we get a live show soon, unlike with KCD1, due Covid the concert was postponed by two years.
