what is a skit?
molten lotus
eg comedy skit
unique wind
a short video with a made up story
dry stratus
sorry, my emotional age is 15 years younger than true age, and my mental age is 15 years older, so I don't understand these words
molten lotus
short and would probably sum up their humor from back then
it got basically bought by some company and they started printing out videos super fast and unfunny
dry stratus
a short video with a made up story
so an advertisement?
unique wind
no
molten lotus
not saying old smosh is funny but it was entertaining in 2012 we didn't have very high standards then
unique wind
he doesn’t know what skit means
molten lotus
pick up a dictionary
dry stratus
advertisements are short videos with made up stories
molten lotus
not entirely wrong but the first and foremost definition of an advertisement isn't that so it isn't good input
you could say some ads are a skit and some aren't
dry stratus
skit mark more accurate?

dude it projects through the chasis
from the gaps
why is this thing so bright
even with the filter it hurts to look at
molten lotus
yeah
lean grove
Yeah. I almost got that one
tepid torrent
How right is he
molten lotus
singxer is also in a bit of a weird spot
at one point it was really well renowed
then other products like iha6 came out which shifted attention from it, eventually people saying it's overpriced
lean grove
The sa1 came out after the iha6
molten lotus
there is also the entire modded singxer conversation which is a whole another can of worms
tepid torrent
Some people say iHA6 is the overpriced one and the sa1 is still better
molten lotus
The sa1 came out after the iha6
yeah but no one gave a shit about iha6
lean grove
Tell that to grey
molten lotus
but you aren't wrong
unique wind
cheapaudioman when he claims that op amp rolling radically changes the sound
molten lotus
Tell that to grey
grey said moondrop variations sounded better than edition xs
he doesn't have very consistent views
you can visit the sharur video archive to find out more about grey
unique wind
variations has some of the best tuning of any head/earphone but it has inverted polarity and you cant compare iem sound presentation to headphones imo
lean grove
yeah but no one gave a shit about iha6
Idk. Aura gang shilled it to no end.
molten lotus
singxer?
lean grove
No the iha6
molten lotus
oh yeah
they shill the fuck out of iha6
that literally introduced it to the most of the community i think
id honestly want to compare singxer's modded version to iha6
very curious about that

What was inverted polarity again?
I dont brain
haughty girder
and hopefully somehow make it not fail?
haughty girder
lmfao
tepid torrent
Shut
lean grove

Both are small potatoes tho. Tapping a speaker amp will get you further if you want the gobs of warmth and power.
unique wind
if someone claims to hear differences between dacs but cant hear inverted polarity do not take anything that they say seriously
molten lotus

I can get a used iHA6 for new sa1 prices lmao

molten lotus
why purple
tepid torrent
“Klaus what do you want?” “Headfone, and gun”
molten lotus
why
haughty girder
Cause purple best color
molten lotus
tbh its based to spend several grand on a headphone
tepid torrent
Purple more like poopoo
molten lotus
and have it purple to pimp out
haughty girder
Purple more like poopoo
wrong color
if you're taking a shit and see purple, time to see a doc

Oh speaking of which I'm finally getting glasses for the first time
molten lotus

i got them but i was traumatized to see i looked like my dad

haughty girder
you didn't get to choose a frame you liked?
unique wind
u misinterpreted what he said POOPOO head nexgen
molten lotus
i did think it looked cool
but then one day i put them on and looked at the mirror
and then i got hit with a flashback
either about my dad or aftereffects of the ananda powergrid incident 20 october 2022
haughty girder
I have -.5 for near sightedness and astigmatism for right eye, -.75 near sightedness and astigmatism for left eye...
haughty girder
basically I still have 20/20 vision
unique wind
-0.5 is pretty minor
unique wind
nowhere near 2020 but still minor for a glasses wearer
haughty girder
nowhere near 2020 but still minor for a glasses wearer
it is 20/20. Fuzzy 20/20, but still readable
haughty girder
I still dunno what it means lmao
unique wind
im -1.25 in one eye and -1.5 in the other if i remember right
i also have mild protanomaly and extreme light sensitivity
haughty girder
you can see at 20feet as well as a "good" vision at 50?
unique wind
protanomaly = red/green color blindness
unique wind
you can see at 20feet as well as a "good" vision at 50?
yah
haughty girder
but 20/20 just means at 20 feet, you see what a normal person should see at 20 feet
unique wind
yeah it would mean you have standard expected vision and wouldnt need any prescription
you can get better than 20/20 with glasses though which is cool
haughty girder
I don't need it at all
manic vortex
AAAAAAAAAA I wantttt
Bro if they were worth the price beyond build quality I would sell mine and buy that's actually so pretty
unique wind
maybe he meant you get 20/20 vision when you wear your glasses nex
haughty girder
you can get better than 20/20 with glasses though which is cool
ye I know
haughty girder
maybe he meant you get 20/20 vision when you wear your glasses nex
nope
unique wind
because if you had 20/20 vision they wouldnt give you glasses

how much does a 21 speaker dolby system cost

it's not so much an audio tech/engineer channel as it is just a dac/amp/headphone channel
with occasional speaker talk
manic vortex
how much does a 21 speaker dolby system cost
Depends

it's not so much an audio tech/engineer channel as it is just a dac/amp/headphon...
I looked at audio engineer math and decided to stick with cs
unique wind
if you have in-ceiling speakers even 5.4.2 is gonna be way better than stereo
molten lotus
ive my doubts
manic vortex
at what point does it become actually worth it
I'm the last person to ask lmao
unique wind
u dont need 21 speakers
molten lotus
never heard surround sounding better than stereo so far
so i have my doubts regarding lower end surround and atmos
haughty girder
maybe he meant you get 20/20 vision when you wear your glasses nex
Does this seem abt right?
unique wind
r u using music to judge this
molten lotus
yeah no multimedia
haughty girder
so i have my doubts regarding lower end surround and atmos
You don't need to doubt it. They all suck
lean grove
at what point does it become actually worth it
I guess it depends a lot on if you're even using Atmos for movies.
manic vortex
so i have my doubts regarding lower end surround and atmos
High end surround is an experience, but I've heard some midrange systems that were absolute beasts
molten lotus
isn't there atmos mastered music
haughty girder
midrange - costs 10k
manic vortex
midrange - costs 10k
2k
haughty girder
nahh
unique wind
isn't there atmos mastered music
theres some stuff on apple music thats designed to be listened to with airpods
idk if itd work well with real atmos
unique wind
y not
molten lotus
theres some stuff on apple music thats designed to be listened to with airpods
how are these related
unique wind
it's not that expensive it's just a major pain in the ass to cut open your ceiling
manic vortex
aint no way you can get a decent atmost with 2k
U can I've seen it done
unique wind
how are these related
because thats the atmos music youre referencing
it's fake atmos mostly
meant for headphones
molten lotus
im not buying you can get good atmos surround better than 2.x setups for music
no way
unique wind
for music maybe not but for movies yah
unique wind
the most expensive thing in that 2k setup is gonna be the avr
molten lotus
how much are ceiling speakers anyways
haughty girder
that's... still a soundbar
manic vortex
the most expensive thing in that 2k setup is gonna be the avr
I'm pretty sure they used some switch and computer splitting magic but idk enough abt it
unique wind
how much are ceiling speakers anyways
like $50
molten lotus
not like rear mounts
unique wind
looks expensive
molten lotus
i know
molten lotus
i cant say 5k speaker rigs are my expertise
unique wind
i think the bidirectional and omnidirectional in-wall surround speakers are cool
unique wind
shit like this
molten lotus
that looks like a room treatment nightmare

Room treatment is a nightmare period

ive a banger idea
lets put the same driver
8 times into the speaker
unique wind
passive soundbar
molten lotus
that looks really cursed
unique wind
literally just three passive speakers that happen to be connected
with separate inputs on the back
molten lotus
what is the context you use this in
unique wind
when you want a bar shaped speaker but nicer i guess
it's for home theater
it's just a conjoined L/C/R
molten lotus
oh when you said passive
you meant it that way
i thought it was literal radiators
unique wind
passively powered there's no electronics inside
although i question why the center speaker isnt mtm
why is it tmm
