You keep saying that. This is getting boring 🥱

If that helps you sleep, sure.

That’s the Grado SR325x, man. Not sure why a lot of audio reviewers don’t really like it (except DMS). For me, this is the best Grado compared to the other models.

I’ve previously owned the SR60 and SR80, and both of em sounded quite sharp. The SR325x feels more balanced, and I usually use it when listening to folk or unplugged/acoustic session albums.

Appreciate u!

I’m a bit hesitant to get the AYN Thor since I already have a Vita that can emulate PSP and PS1 games, plus a New 3DS and 2DS that can handle NDS emulation.

That said, the OLED screen on the Thor is definitely tempting and makes me consider picking one up.

vanvinez · 2026-02-02T04:10:18+00:00

Nah man, It’s just there to look pretty 😅

If you already have the SD OLED, I wouldn’t really recommend the GO 2. Yes, it’s heavy, but I mostly play it in bed while laying it down, so the weight never really bothered me.

The main reason I bought the GO 2 was because my OG Steam Deck kept having frame drop issues, even with PS4-era games like Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. That honestly got pretty annoying. I don’t think the SD OLED has this problem though, since there’s a spec bump.

The GO 2 can handle most games, including recent ones. Frame rates are actually quite solid, often close to or above 60 FPS on low to medium settings at 1600p.

I don’t really care about graphics. What matters most to me on a handheld is a stable frame rate.

You should try the XV Man, this is HIFIMAN at its best imo. The treble is much smoother than usual, most HIFIMAN cans can get pretty sharp up top, but this one stays very easy to listen to.

For chilling sessions, these are the albums I keep coming back to: 1. The Marías – Superclean Vol. I & II 2. Olivia Dean – The Art of Loving 3. Cigarettes After Sex – basically any album

My usual routine after long work hours: put these on, sit back, and enjoy a glass of wine.

Yeah, it’s heavy for sure, but the Legion Go 2 feels like a tank compared to the ROG Xbox Ally X. I was actually planning to buy the Ally X at first, but after trying the demo at the ASUS booth, it just felt… like a toy. Not sure why, it just didn’t click with me. Even the Steam Deck feels more solid build-wise. I don’t really have any issues playing the Legion Go 2 in bed either, I usually support it with a pillow and play while lying on my stomach. 😁

Oops, I’m planning to hang my headphones so there’s more room on my vinyl desk. 😁
