can someone help with my new keyboard ?

#

like the fn keys just activate the F1-F12 keys and their functions but i cant access the multimedia functions of those keys

real galleon May 20, 2020, 6:25 AM

#

you can change that with your settings @hollow pond

#

or your keyboards drivers

#

like razer cortex or corsairs or logitechs

#

idk what keyboard you got lmao

Check your keyboards manual

if anything

#

Cause sometimes its hard wired into the keyboard itself

So I just moved from US to Europe and the new house has a fiber connection. When I run a speed test on my phone (WiFi), I see around 600mbps.

However, when I tried plugging in my laptop through Ethernet (one end into the router, the other into my laptop), I only am getting right under 100mbps.

#

I don't know much about networking, but I did know to check the type of Ethernet cable and it is cat5e, which I have read supports gigabit.

brisk parcel May 20, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

does the card on your laptop support it though?

#

how old is your laptop?

#

most ethernet controllers should be gigabit, but it depends on the laptop and the budget, etc

graceful jetty May 20, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

Ah it may just be my laptop then.

#

I assumed it supported gigabit but it's a ~5yr old Dell laptop I got on sale for $400.

#

Can I check from within windows?

brisk parcel May 20, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

I'm not sure, I think so

#

let me double check

#

ok yeah

#

open system information

#

expand the hardware tab

#

and it'll be under the I/O section

real galleon May 20, 2020, 6:34 PM

#

sometimes the ethernet connection on your laptop is limited too

it depends ont he situation

do you need sound isolation? or are you in a quiet environment? how much do you care about sound quality? mic quality? etc

daring zenith May 23, 2020, 8:57 PM

My question is there any, say if budget is 150, no need for noise cancelation, wired wireless doesn't matter, sound quality matters, mic quality matters slightly less.

humble lodge May 24, 2020, 4:19 AM

#

Just don't buy a Corsair gaming mouse unless you want the left and right omron switches to go bad every few weeks/months and have the armature for the scroll wheel snap in half.

#

I learned the hard way.

#

11 RMAs in one year.

hazy fiber May 24, 2020, 5:19 AM

#

What are you doing to them, jeez

#

I've had my dark core for a few weeks and my harpoon wireless for a serveral months with no issues

humble lodge May 24, 2020, 5:25 AM

#

Nothing. They even had them tested after I'd send them back to ensure I didn't damage them. The switches just failed. Sometimes immediately after unboxing.

#

So much so they agreed to refund ALL of my Corsair products after already being outside of the RMA period because of how many issues I had.

#

Reimbursed me $200 and I got a Ducky Mecha Mini, Glorious Model O, and Glorious XXL Extended mousepad instead. Not one issue every since.

#

ever*

hazy fiber May 24, 2020, 6:11 AM

#

Well IDK. I'll see how mine hold up, but I have bought a ton or Corsair products (PSU, Keyboard, mouse, ram, case, lighting, fans, custom cooling) and have been impressed with pretty much everything except the poorly reviewed case I bought.

I've personally have had very positive experiences with thier service. And if you were to see a problem as you had, they will fix it

hasty quail May 24, 2020, 6:27 AM

#

yeah idk what's w/ your luck and Corsair @humble lodge but i had my Sabre mouse for 2yrs and my Harpoon for almost that long, and I am looking forward to my Dark Core that is coming next week.

humble lodge May 24, 2020, 6:33 AM

#

Well I originally bought the M65 Pro then they sent me the M65 Elite, Ironclaw, Ironclaw Wireless, Dark Core, and finally the Nightsword. All had the same left and/or right click issues. Some right away, some after a few weeks, most in less than 90 days. Two of them the scroll wheel arm that turns the mechanism snapped completely. Both wireless mice had connection issues. It's great that some of you have no issues, but this isn't even just an isolated issue with me. I've seen an unbelievable amount of threads of the same issues across all their different models.

#

Personally I think it's a design or cheap manufacturing issue, where some but not all are well constructed and the rest end up being done wrong. I don't think the switches are bad switches.

@daring zenith Nope in French it's switches. Same

#

@daring zenith And yeah, are there = y a t'il ?/ Il y a ?. There are websites like:

-materiel.net (more expensive)
And there're some non specialised websites like :
-Cdiscount
-fnac
-rueducommerce
-darty
And more..

daring zenith May 26, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

Ohh I forgot about Il y a and how you can use that casually to ask a question...

reef elk May 26, 2020, 2:04 AM

#

For a question, you can use many expressions but people usually say : "est-ce qu'il y a [...] ?" (Which mean: "Is/are there [...] ?" But this is casual. To be more "high level language" (I don't have the word lol) you can use the expression I gave you before : "Y a t'il ?" Which mean basically the same thing. In French, the nice way to make a question is to reverse the verb and the subject. For example:
-Tu as du chocolat ? (Not really nice but people use it casually and will understand you)
-As tu du chocolat ? (Which is more grammarly correct)
For your information, both sentences mean the same thing : "Do you want chocolate?"

daring zenith May 26, 2020, 2:05 AM

#

Huh, I thought As-tu du chocolat would mean "Do you have the chocolate"?

It's a good mic. Reviewers had bad things to say about the quality because they were too dumb to spend the time to learn how to configure it properly. It's not that hard and it's a very good mic. Better than the Yetti once setup properly.

Should I get the 58x jubilee or the arctic pro wireless + gamedac (I don’t have any dac or amp) and I play both multiplayer and single player but I usually play more single player

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

@steady plover 58x

#

all the way

#

save up a little bit and get a 6XX if you can wait a month

#

the drop comes in June 30th

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

What’s the difference

#

Between the 6xx and 58x

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

ah

#

so they're actually very similar, but the 6XX has a wider soundstage, and it's more refined

#

more "laid-back" if you will

#

it also has a larger frequency range

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:42 PM

How are they with music?

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:42 PM

I never knew finding headphones would be this hard lmao

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:43 PM

do you only listen to rock and metal? or do you just prefer the two

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

Mostly only rock and metal

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

because you might like the 58x a little better in that case, they're a little more "fun". a little more "in your face"

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

Some other stuff but not much

real galleon May 26, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

sennhesser has a very neutral sound stage

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

look at some reviews if you'd like

#

yeah me, rudester, and ghost have been talking about this for over a month lmao

speaking of, do you know what day your headphones come in Rude?

or just sometime next month

This is what I’m upgrading from

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

oh yeah

#

you'll enjoy both sennheiser cans very much

#

do you have a DAC/AMP already?

#

or a combo of the two?

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

No

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

okay so

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

I don’t have any

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

you might wanna pick up the 58X in that case, they're 150 ohms compared to 300 on the 6XX

#

basically, the 6XX need more power to really get the best out of them

#

if you had the money I would say to get a schitt modi and magni, but that's probably a little much for your budget

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

Yeah I heard that I can use the 58x with my phone easily but not so much the 6xx

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

yeah the 6XX will struggle

#

but if you want a versatile thing, the sound blaster E5 might be nice for you

#

works on PC and can be connected to your phone via bluetooth

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:47 PM

Let’s say I want a headphone for a game like cyberpunk specifically

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

What would you say I should get

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

tbh, all 3 of those aren't a bad option

#

but I would recommend you go for the 2 sennheisers over the arctis

#

they're much better for the money

#

BUT they are open back

#

so if you care about sound leak or are in a loud environment you might not enjoy them as much

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:48 PM

#

I was looking into spending around $600 for an audio setup

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:48 PM

well then yeah you can go all out then haha

are you in a quiet environment?

The most noisy thing would be my keyboard

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:49 PM

#

ok you'll be alright then

#

since open backs do leak sound a good bit

they're meant to give the audio a much more spatial feeling, more realistic

you beat me to it lmao

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:55 PM

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:55 PM

#

you'll want the amp to give the headset the power it craves

west hornet May 26, 2020, 8:55 PM

#

dac is important but you might not have a way to plug it in without the other component

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:56 PM

#

And do the amps just plug into my pc?

west hornet May 26, 2020, 8:56 PM

#

my schiit amp uses rca

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:56 PM

#

yeah, most amps draw power from the wall

#

surprisingly my G6 doesn't and it can drive up to 600 ohms

steady plover May 26, 2020, 8:58 PM

#

If I were to just sit outside and listen to music with my phone would it still be okay without an amp?

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 8:58 PM

#

yeah but it'll be a bit quiet

#

as long as it's quiet outside you should be ok

#

but like I said you might be good with a portable amp too

#

that should come later though

#

worry about your PC audio first

#

like I said earlier though, if you prefer rock and metal the most, you might like the 58X a little better

#

look at some reviews if you're unsure, but from what i've read the 58Xs are a little better for that kinda stuff

#

but the 6XXs are better overall for sure, they have a wider soundstage and a higher frequency range

#

12Hz-32KHz on the 58X and 10Hz-41KHz on the 6XXs

#

you might like the 6XXs cause of that low 10Hz, if you EQ the bass up just a little bit, it's really quite the experience

#

like a low rumble you can almost feel in your chest 😂 I've used the 6XXs a few times

steady plover May 26, 2020, 9:01 PM

#

One more question

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 9:01 PM

#

tbh it really goes both ways, they're both great cans

#

ok shoot

steady plover May 26, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

Is the 6xx better than the 660s? I heard the 58x is pretty much just the 660s

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

yeah, I would say the 6XX is better than the 660s, it's basically a 650

#

like I said they're both super similar in a lot of ways but also super different

#

that's my personal preference though, I'm not a fan of stuff that can be super in your face, I like things a little warmer and more laid back

#

I don't really listen to metal too, and what rock i do listen to is like 70s-80s, some alt rock, and that's about it for rock

#

the rest of it is very mixed lmao

#

but for your listening case, you might enjoy the little more bass, and the more "fun" the 58x provides

steady plover May 26, 2020, 9:04 PM

#

Dude thank you

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 9:04 PM

the soundstage is a bit smaller though

brisk parcel May 26, 2020, 9:05 PM

Any recommendation for a good cheap headset with mic?
@split nimbus Great quality earbuds, with a so-so mic. They do die relatively quick, mainly through the mic bit (can be just mic or entire left side), but you can just get them replaced with an insurance plan. I've replaced these earbuds a ton of times, renewing the insurance every time. The insurance plan is $10 for two years, so it's essentially $10/pair when you get them replaced.

I was looking more for a full on headset for teleworking/voice chat, but these do look nice. Do you know if they have a version with separate mic and audio plugs?

peak rune May 31, 2020, 3:14 AM

#

Probably not for cheap

#

I also cannot stand headsets which wrap around my ears, so I can't really give you any recommendations in terms of that

#

The headphones I recommended are surround sound, if that changes anything

Not really a biggy for me. I just need something so I can get off my 15 year old set now that everything is voice chat

Anyone have a tecware phantom 104? Want a review on it as it’s on my way

humble lodge Jun 2, 2020, 8:15 AM

#

I had the Model D for about a week and loved the extra included G-Skates for more glide and the ergonomic shape but the placement of the side buttons is so awkward and hard to reach while also keeping a good grip on the mouse. If they were lower and more forward so I didn't have to arch my thumb it would be perfect, so I swapped it for the Model O. Those side buttons are small and not well distinguished from one another and no extra G-Skates but they have much better placement.

I had the techware phantom 87 for a long time and it was a pretty decent board for the price. Good build quality and average switches. If you don't like the feel of the standard keycaps you can also get a box of double shot pbt caps like I did. @turbid torrent

Depends how much more it is

#

If it's like maybe $50 more possibly but any above I don't know

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:24 PM

#

well, if you're looking for some great cans overall but require a mic, I would go for the sennheiser PC37X, they're sold out on massdrop but they are available on amazon

#

they go for $130 i do believe

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

I have a microphone

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

okay nice

#

so, if they go on sale, which i expect them to soon because of summer, the HD58X jubilee are a great option, and the bass is very well recieved. they're $170, but usually go on sale for $150

#

do you prefer open back or closed back?

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:26 PM

#

not sure what's the difference

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:26 PM

#

okay so

#

closed back is what you see on most headsets/some headphones. the driver is sealed off, not visible to someone who doesn't have them on their head, I.E. the cloud 2s

#

closed backs offer much better sound isolation, things around you will be more muffled, people won't be able to hear what you're listening to that well depending on volume

#

however, there are a few drawbacks to closed backs

#

it's very hard to give music a very "realistic" sound. it appears to be coming from the center of your head, and you usually get a smaller soundstage depending on what you end up buying

#

now I'll explain open backs

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

Open back headphones, particularly Grado ones, (can) sound bloody amazing. But they have literally no sound isolation

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

a a a, not yet i'll get to that

#

so

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

look at my man giving a full structured lecture 👏

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

I don't really care for noise cancelling, I just want something that has quite incredible bass and sound quality and has comfort to the ears

#

Those are the three things I am looking for

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

as night said, they don't have nearly as much sound isolation, and people can hear what you're listening too

#

BUT

#

the driver is directly exposed to the "outside" of the headset. It projects sound in both directions, giving you a much more realistic sound, a better soundstage, better imaging(positioning basically, being able to pinpoint where sound is coming from), and it's usually a warmer feeling

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

do people use open back typically more than closed?

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

it depends on your use case and the environment you're in

#

so if you're in a loud environment, I wouldn't recommend open back as you'll be able to hear everything around you much better

#

they do have some sound isolation, but not much. and they do project sound, but it's not as bad as most people think

#

an example of a typical closed back would be this:

📎 719KtJ-RAFL.png

#

the hyperX* logo covers the driver, you can't see it

#

this is what an open back looks like:

📎 hd58x-jubilee.png

#

that ring thing on the inside of the earcup is the driver itself

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:35 PM

#

i'd probably go with closed back

#

i live behind a very busy highway

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

alright so it's question time about what you should go with

#

the highway is definitely a factor

#

how loud is it usually? is it easily audible/annoying most of the time?

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

it's both yes lol

#

especially when people speed down the highway with the loudest engines

west hornet Jun 2, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

generally open back have a bigger sound stage, closed back are more common but open back is starting to get more popular. If it is very noisy near you closed backs are probably better. I know beyerdynamics has some good closed backs

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

when you're using your current headphones, how much do they block out the sound of the highway?

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

none. they're speakers lol

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

ghost we'll get to that lmao

#

hmm alright

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

My volume is typically on 40 and it hardly blocks out the noise

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

wow that must be a loud highway i feel bad 😂

#

didn't know it was like THAT busy

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

It's not exactly a highway but we call them highways here, it's an extremely busy road

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

sounds close enough tbh

#

anyway

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

It's as noisy as one lol

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

closed back might be your best bet, but your budget might be a little bit of a limiting factor, I'll have to double check a few prices

#

I recommend the 58X and the 6XX to most because of the incredible value, and it opens up the world of open backs for most people

#

but that highway's gonna be a problem, I would say that open backs will block out probably 15-20% of that volume

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

Honestly, if you have a ton of background noise I would consider noise cancelling. It's a very handy feature. Great for travel too if you're into that

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

Hey @brisk parcel I want headphones that are better than apple earbuds at the cheapest price possible do you know of any

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:43 PM

Jukebuds

they're not headphones tho

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:44 PM

they're one of the best closed backs for the price

why the hell is black $30 more

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:45 PM

Check out Sony and Bose's linup. I have some more pricey ones but some of their cheaper options are slick too. Shure/Audio Technica are also awesome if you're an audiophile

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

because of the finish I think

#

tbh I never liked audio technica

#

their stuff was too "surgical"

#

I prefer warmer and more laid back sound

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:45 PM

I like these sony speakers they're nice @hazy fiber which headphones do you prefer if you don't mind me asking

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

@devout fiber what's your budget to step up from the apple trashbuds?

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

The ones you sent me were nice but just wanna see my alternatives

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

Well it comes down to personal preference. Hard to beat shure/audio technica's accuracy tho

I use Bose 700s/ Shure SE535 personally, but I can see if I can find the cheaper models I can recommend

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

as cheap as possible. I'd be fine with the same exact performance as I am cool with the apple earbud sound i just want headphones not earbuds

#

if that makes sense

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

yeah I gotcha

#

lemme check a few things

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

Audio-Technica ATH-M40x - under $100 for excellent wired studio grade headphones (they have bluetooth for more)

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

ok Yams, do you prefer open or closed? is your environment quiet or loud?

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

either works

#

probably open

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:49 PM

Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones WHXB900N - Cheaper/older version of the Sony equivalent to the Bose 700s. Excellent noise cancelation and good sound (tho bass heavy). Has bluetooth

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:49 PM

#

I like bass it's okay

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

oh @brisk parcel are wireless hardphones good? if so i'd like those

#

don't wanna have to deal with the wire

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

Shure SE215 - Super accurate in ear monitors. Not the same level as the SE535, but very accurate. Not great bass, they go for accurate

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

wireless are usually fine yeah, but they tend to be a tad more expensive

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:50 PM

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:51 PM

Bluetooth headphones tend to come with a wired option that you can use when they die

i don't think I ahve bluetooth on my PC

You can get a good usb adapter for like $20

I'll give you two wired ones first, both of these have a great value IMO, I love both of them. @devout fiber
Philips SHP9500: they're one of the best open backs i've used for the price. they're not really cheap but they're the cheapest quality you can get
https://www.amazon.com/Philips-SHP9500S-Precision-Over-ear-Headphones/dp/B00ENMK1DW/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=shp9500&qid=1591123970&sr=8-1
and these babies. the GRADO SR60e: very similar to the Philips, but they have a warmer sound IMO, things are more laid back and casual. it's hard to find them in stock but they're worth it
https://www.amazon.com/Grado-SR60e-Headphones/dp/B00KYTNU9U/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=sr60e&qid=1591124036&s=electronics&sr=1-1

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

They have 4.6 stars out of 2.7K reviews so it's not looking unpromising

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

@silver roost I can't make a personal recommendion as I haven't tried them, but they look well reviewed

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

ooh da_heck

#

Those are expensive

#

I'm a huge cheapskate

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

@silver roost I've used them before. they're not too bad, but the bass is lackluster if you want some good bass that also doesn't wash out the higher frequencies

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

Okie, last recommendations that I've personally tried here:
Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones WH1000XM3 - Best noise canceling, cheaper than the Bose, more comfortable, better sound. Retails at $350 though

And a counter recommendation: avoid Skullcandy. They are cheap, but they are cheap. Service is pretty poor, and you'll need top use it a lot if you buy from them

#

Also, I second the grado SR60 rec from @brisk parcel

#

I've used those, excellent sound quality and well built (they get hot in the summer though)

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

The link I sent I can't find anywhere near me for $51

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

@silver roost they're also a little pricey, around the same as the DT770, but they're another great option:
https://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-569-Closed-Headphone/dp/B01L1IIF1A/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=598c&qid=1591124215&sr=8-3

#

they're tuned to as low as 10Hz as well, it'll give bass a more "resonating" feeling, almost like you can feel it in your chest

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

@silver roost there are some used ones of that model you sent on ebay for under $50 if you want to get those

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

plus it comes with a detachable cable

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 6:59 PM

Don't exactly know if I want used headphones

#

That's fair

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 7:00 PM

#

@devout fiber I can look for some cheaper ones if you'd like, but the designs are a tad funky

#

there's really only one that I recommend, the Kossa Porta-Pros, but they look a bit odd lmao

#

they're also on-ears, and not over ears

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sony-xb950n1-extra-bass-wireless-noise-cancelling-over-the-ear-headphones-black/5739303.p?skuId=5739303 same link as earlier, might settle on these then, they have good bass and good reviews and it's very cheap

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 7:02 PM

so they don't fit like most headphones do

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 7:03 PM

#

maybe i'll just stick with earbuds...

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 7:03 PM

@silver roost if you want one more recommendation for closed backs from me, the monoprice retros aren't too bad:

#

@devout fiber I can help with earbuds too if you'd like, but spending the little extra dollar is worth it

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

lol $30

#

cheap but

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

I try and get people to not settle for less, cause once you open yourself up to better sound you'll enjoy music more than you thought you could

silver roost Jun 2, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

for $30 it doesnt seem promising

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

yeah well the whole reason I wanted new headphones is becuase I don't like earbuds... I wanted over ears

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 7:05 PM

as for closed backs, the retros that I recommended to NJ would fit your budget if you really wanna go that low

I know some people like to go cheap, but your ears deserve better

hazy fiber Jun 2, 2020, 7:07 PM

If you are in a noisy environment I wouldn't recommend open tho. That's why I haven't actually used my grados for a year

#

I mean my hearing is not that good to start with so...

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 7:07 PM

If you can afford to get the GRADOS or Philips then I would try them out first, see if you think the extra money is worth it

#

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 7:08 PM

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 7:09 PM

#

I know what you mean I used to be the same way

#

but tbh $60-ish bucks for a headset that's gonna last much longer is more worth it imo

devout fiber Jun 2, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

my $15 apple earbuds have lasted me a very long time...

#

they've even been through the washer a few times 🤣

brisk parcel Jun 2, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

in a way it's really not too expensive, like I'm dropping $170 on the 58Xs I talked about, I wanted to grab the 6XXs for $220 but they sold out and I would rather mod my 58Xs to sound closer to the 660S, which is a best in class.

#

earbuds typically will last a bit longer at that price, at that point the quality lies in the cable

#

if you have a cheap cable, it'll break easily

Like the 700s are amazing and super well built (like they can take a serious hit), but the Sony WH-1000XM3 are (in my opinion) better in price, comfort, & performance... though not durability
