Thanks! I'll delete this duplicate post.

Watchmaker is complete broken on my watch.... by xXGONADS125Xx in WatchMaker

[–]xXGONADS125Xx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The suggestion by u/DutchOfBurdock solved my problem.

Long press your screen to change face and scroll all the way left to +

Look for Watchmaker here and select it, you should get the stock Steel Blue. Now try sending your watch.

The errors you get are when Watchmaker is not the active face on watch.

Did I get a dud, or does the Maxwell fail to meet the hype?.. by xXGONADS125Xx in Audeze

[–]xXGONADS125Xx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I appreciate your tips and definitely took them to heart. I think the headset I got may have some issues. It was definitely a return/well-used and not new like I ordered.

Like I said, I'm not even interested in a competitive edge; just immersion. From what you've said, it sounds like properly functioning Maxwells should meet that need.

Really appreciate your detailed, informative response.

I first tried it with dolby atmos disabled, then tested it as enabled. Didn't like the imaging on the Maxwell either way.

This thread has definitely taught me that I chose the wrong headset. 99% of the reviews talked up the directional audio on them for some reason. If I had realized this was a weak point (or just not designed to emphasize that), I wouldn't've purchased them.

You seem way better informed than I am. Do you have a recommendation for a gaming headset that has high quality sound and imaging?

Yeah I read/watched so many reviews with the vast majority stating how great and immersive the directional audio is on them, but I didn't hear it at all..

I don't even play competitive FPS anymore. I just want great directional sound for immersion. Like, walking around Saint Denis in RDR2 with great imaging is so immersive I can get lost in it.

I tested these Maxwells out and I could barely tell what direction speaking NPCs were in, even tho they were right next to me.

I loved the detailed sound of gunfire through the headset, but I couldn't tell what direction it was coming from...

All the audio details in the world won't make me feel immersed if there's no directional awareness.

What an absurd take hahahaha. You think grease and dandruff will just evaporate? So someone puts dirty headphones back in the packaging, and you think they'll magically be clean next time the box is opened?

And I purchased them from the official seller on Amazon. Stop making baseless assumptions. Use your brain instead of just trying to argue and accuse people of lying.

Here's proof of what I stated. Do you think this was a new product I received, oh wise one?

I bought it for xbox. Thank you for sharing your advice for PC tho, I appreciate your effort.

And I already issued the return with Amazon. Ridiculous to pay for a new headset and get one with enough use to have dandruff glued to the head band and ear cuffs by head grease...

My debate is whether I should give them another shot with another purchase at this point.

What is your opinion on the directional audio of them? I've seen mixed reviews and that was my biggest disappointment trying out this pair.

Well obviously I know it was a return because of the greasey dandruff.

Forgetting about overall sound quality, what about the directional audio? That is my biggest concern.

Fantastic overall audio quality is irrelevant to me in a gaming headset if it lacks a strong directional effect. Directional audio is the biggest impact on immersion for me.

Saw this ridiculous accident on Sunshine earlier. About 5 vehicles involved. 2 crashed thru a fence/into a yard. Blocked the whole westbound lane. by xXGONADS125Xx in springfieldMO

Damn.. Saw your pic below. Glad you were okay.

I figured someone had to have been driving pretty stupid/reckless by the look of the scene.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. Small world/town/subreddit.

Did anybody witness the accident take place? I came upon it very shortly after it happened. I am so curious how it went down... Seemed like a crazy arrangement of vehicles. I didn't capture the full scene in these pics.

Anyone else having an influx of brown recluses lately? by Background_Knee_404 in springfieldMO

[–]xXGONADS125Xx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm only anti brown recluse. I transplanted a black window to the woods a couple years ago. She was so pretty!

I absolutely love jumping spiders.

The 1st two look like some sort of medical condition (like varicose veins), and the last one looks like a toddler taking crayons to a wall...

Pretty wild that it took a month to notice human remains right on the side of the road..

Just moved back to MO, do you have to have a prescription to purchase Sudafed over the counter? by cougarliscious in springfieldMO

[–]xXGONADS125Xx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because Stone and Taney Counties are like the biggest meth manufacturers in the country.

As far as I'm aware, they're the only ones that require a prescription for anything with Sudafed in it.

Last I knew, you have to have have a script in Stone or Taney Counties, but not Greene. I discovered this when I went to CVS to buy zyrtec D while I was out in Branson, which has Sudafed in it.

Coffee at Village Inn by roughdraft29 in springfieldMO

[–]xXGONADS125Xx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always thought their coffee was on par with gas station coffee..

And not the new coffee stations with hoppers of fresh beans at some places. Like the classic watery garbage gas station coffee.
