i wouldn't say the 203 is small but more like the hump is too short

tacit wing

#

then the mm711 is a choice for u then

#

that thing is a chode

#

its short and stumpy

#

its OP for claw

is g pro wireless really worth

#

Scared that the wireless connection will be bad

sharp kindle
#

it wont be @last plinth

#

wireless connection will be good

#

will

#

worry

#

wwack

daring zenith
#

@last plinth 1. GPW isn't really worth the 150$ in my opinion
2. Wireless connection is still amazing, I have a gpw

sharp kindle
#

150 dollars isn't worth it, yes

#

if Model O Wireless reservations aren't out yet

#

get a Model O Wireless

#

80 bucks

last plinth
#

Its 130$

daring zenith
#

I second that

#

wait for Model O wireless if at all possible

last plinth
#

Not 150 lol

daring zenith
#

it's being poised as a good GPW alternative at a lot cheaper

#

I got it when it was ~150$ msrp

#

it was gifted

last plinth
#

If i do get model o its gonna be wired

sharp kindle
#

even though it is a bit cheaper now, its not worth it imo

#

why?

daring zenith
#

Model O wireless is coming out.

last plinth
#

I want something like the finalmouse

sharp kindle
#

wireless connectivity has gotten so good that most wireless options from reliable brands are good

last plinth
#

I already have mouse bungee

sharp kindle
#

ok then get a model o wired

last plinth
#

finalmouse is never restocking right

daring zenith
#

yea, and I second wireless connectivity being great

sharp kindle
#

wait your the person with the floppy bungee

last plinth
sharp kindle
#

right?

last plinth
#

yep

sharp kindle
#

hmmm does it work?

last plinth
#

Ya

sharp kindle
#

well then a wired mouse should be fine

last plinth
#

But finalmouse no more stock right

sharp kindle
#

idk

last plinth
sharp kindle
#

dont really keep up with news on finalmeme

last plinth
#

looks really cool and really light

sharp kindle
#

Model O looks basically the same

#

i think its a bit heavier

last plinth
#

And these ppl are reselling for like 500

sharp kindle
#

but its cheaper

last plinth
#

okie me get gpw

#

for now

#

Might change my mind later

proper sphinx
#

Also check out the viper ultimate

last plinth
#

proper sphinx
#

Yes

#

I heard razed upped their quality, idk tho

#

Razer *

last plinth
#

nah if im paying 130$ might as well get gpw

proper sphinx
#

True

last plinth
#

I also dont like how the viper ultimate looks

tacit wing
#

Razer QC drastically improved when they dropped their Viper lineup

#

they have reps actually lurking r/mousereview and they actually listen to community feedback

#

their new huntsman mini keeb was pretty yikes tho

#

I also dont like how the viper ultimate looks
@last plinth looks should be the last thing you prioritize in a mouse

last plinth
#

yes

tacit wing
#

also dont get a new GPW now because there is a new one coming out

last plinth
#

tacit wing
#

wouldnt surprise the current GPW will drop in price

daring zenith
#

tacit wing
#

last plinth
#

Ppl at finalmouse deserve pain

#

doesnt restock mouse

#

Trys to sell shoes and fails

tacit wing
#

they make great mice but their marketing is just... cringe lol

last plinth
#

i know right?

#

You think after million of people saying finalmouse is best mouse

#

They would restock

#

but nope

#

SOMEGALUL DUMB

tacit wing
#

they're trying to be an exclusive brand and charge that much for their mice, just because

last plinth
#

they were like 90$

tacit wing
#

i really like their mice, the UL2 is a fingertip dream. but i dont like Finalmouse as a company

last plinth
#

But ppl resell

lol

#

mecha mini or apex 7 tkl?

sharp kindle
#

@wispy spade if you wanna have more customizable switches, then something like a Glorious GMMK.

#

if not

#

I would go for the mecha mini

wispy spade
#

hmm

sharp kindle
#

cause i kinda don't like steelseries keyboards

#

but thats just my opinion

wispy spade
#

im not a keyboard enthusiast i just need something good

#

i actually bought both

sharp kindle
#

bruh

tacit wing
#

GMMK i feel like the default pre-built recommendation from enthusiasts

sharp kindle
#

yep

wispy spade
#

but y dont u like steelseries

sharp kindle
#

its great on a budget

#

idki just dont like steelseries keebs

tacit wing
#

Olof boost all over again

sharp kindle
#

idk cause i havent been watching cs for that long

tacit wing
#

they really saved that up till the finals

sharp kindle
#

i got into it after 2018 boston major

#

so idk what the reaction was after the olofboost

#

but ik it was contreversial as frick

tacit wing
#

im pretty sure theScore made a video about it

#

it was a boost in Overpass

sharp kindle
#

yeah i watch thescore quite a lot

#

and ik about the olofboost

#

its just idk if reddit reacted in the same way

#

and if chat was the same

tacit wing
#

there was a CT spawn boost in overpass that overlooks Water

sharp kindle
#

yeah the new boost on overpass?

#

i saw that

tacit wing

well its not new, Olofboost was back in 2015

Okay

#

lol the headphones I'm using rn are for Xbox

hazy fiber
#

New workout earbuds, since I'm selling my audiophile in ear monitors for HD6XXs

#

Officially not as nice as WH1000XM4s lol

#

Navigation on these beasties is useless... Decent sound for the price ig

hazy fiber
#

Bass is decent but it feels muddy... maybe I'm just spoiled with flagship headphones lol

hollow pond
#

^^^^

#

cant ever go back

hazy fiber
#

Maybe not muddy, but a little tiny

hollow pond
#

i feel

hazy fiber
#

I'mma still keep them till Sony drops new earbuds

#

B/c working out isn't fun with headphones lol

amber oracle
#

@hazy fiber you meant "tinny"?

sharp kindle
#

@amber oracle i think he means it doesn't sound as pronounced, and a bit too "wet"?

#

where the bass feels a bit sluggish i guess

#

i've had the same experience with some earbuds too

amber oracle
#

hence why i am asking :)

sharp kindle
#

i dont think thats "tinny"

amber oracle
#

because "tiny" is not the same as "tinny"

#

but sometimes, people do mean "tinny"

#

as in, metallic in the sound

sharp kindle
#

yeah

#

oh ok

#

i see what you mean

#

gotcha

amber oracle
#

:)

#

especially when compared to actual headphones where the units have the "room" to move and express themselves

hazy fiber
#

I guess that's what I mean. I need to brush up on audio vocab lol

#

Like my headphones sound much clearer and have more defined sounds if that makes sense

west hornet

Tinny tiny

#

@hazy fiber I debated for the longest time on getting the WH1000XM3's, but I'm so glad I did. They're amazing for everything except anything that has to do with sweat.

hazy fiber
#

Exactly. I had some Bose 700s for a bit and even the last gen Sony's beat them 🙂 in my books anyway
Awesome daily drivers

@hazy fiber I see you got the outlier golds 👀 how do you like them so far? I wasn’t sure about your ear size and those buds fitting in, but it seems like you decently enjoy them

They're growing on me tho

Anyone got a tkl keyboard they could recommend me thats $80 or less

This is a good keyboard only problem is no RGB if you care about it.

#

Here’s a cheap o wireless keyboard from a Chinese company

#

It’s surprisingly good

#

I recommend this keyboard the most cause it’s hotswappable

#

And yes the company is reputable

iron vale
#

So. I'm about to spend $120 on a $200 HOTAS for SW:squadrons

#

But the Amazon reviews are mixed

#

It's the Hori ps4/ace combat 7 hotas.

#

Pros are that it's available, which basically none of the other ones are until like November, and much cheaper than retail. Cons are that many people seem dissatisfied with the action in it, though some think it's fine.

night vessel
#

If i was going to get a trrs adapter for a mic, should i get usb, or usb-c

if ur undecided on a switch or want a linear the one 2 mini

unique mulch
#

@tight pulsar i think they all make the same noise and stuff but i wnat the one thatvlooks the best

#

Rn i think the glorious gmmk

tight pulsar
#

i mean looks are up to u

unique mulch
#

Tenkeyless or the mini

daring zenith
#

Different switches feel differently

unique mulch
#

Idk which one get if i get the glorious

tight pulsar
#

id rather have a better feeling/sounding keyboard than looking cause i dont really look at my keyboard much lol

unique mulch
#

60% compact or tenkeyless

#

I dont really care about the noise but idk

#

Also i might just get new switches later

daring zenith
#

You loose arrow keys with 60%, so if you want arrow keys, go tkl.

unique mulch
#

@daring zenith also one thing, the little cable is in the middle which oersobally i think its a bit nicer

daring zenith
#

?

unique mulch
daring zenith
#

oh that's just kb model

#

nothing to do with the 60% and tkl standards

unique mulch
#

Wdym

#

Kb?

daring zenith
#

the only difference between the "60%" and "TKL" standards is arrow key and that cluster

unique mulch
#

But if i buy one will it be black and look like that?

daring zenith
#

for the GMMK, the cable is in a different position.

unique mulch
#

Im clueless about keyboards

daring zenith
#

if you buy (Pretty sure that's a GMMK) a GMMK, that's how they should look.

unique mulch
#

Oh ok

#

Bc i heard u could also customize it from the pc too

gusty magnet
#

What are some good logitech keyboards

hazy fiber
#

Logi is overrated imo

#

Not specifically keyboards, I just think they are overhyped

gusty magnet
#

Ok

tacit wing
#

Logitech kinda did made wireless relevant in gaming

#

and their Hero sensors are incredibly efficient

gusty magnet
#

I got the g502 its nice

#

Hero sensor in my opinion is good

tacit wing
#

still, i wouldnt look at Logitech if i am looking for a keeb

gusty magnet
#

I would do custom but i dont have $200 to drop

hazy fiber
#

Wireless keyboards are kinda stupid if you're at a desk tho

#

Like you're just adding latency and the need to charge it every now and then for one less cable on something you don't generally move

tacit wing
#

i wont buy a wireless keeb because i like coiled cables, but a wireless mouse makes ALL the difference if you play low-sens and do large flicks

#

so much so, i don't even want to jump into wireless mice bc im afraid i can never go back to wired

gusty magnet
#

I had a wireless and got a wired and i dont think ill go back to wireless

hazy fiber
#

I agree. Wireless mice are so much better

#

Especially as you can (with most good mice) just plug it in to make it wired again

#

You don't get that dreaded drag in fps

iron vale
#

@tacit wing I went with the 703 but wasn't a huge fan/felt like there were tracking issues. Went back to the new mx518 and got one of those mouse cord desk bungies that keep the cord elevated and it feels basically the same.

#

As far as freedom from cord drag

tacit wing
#

As far as freedom from cord drag
@iron vale some people go as far as paracording their mice for a lighter cable

#

more and more peripheral companies are starting put paracords in their mice out of the box, one of the mainstream ones being Razer

#

the paracord on my Viper Mini feels wireless without a doubt, but the slack on my bungie doesnt have the same freedom as a wireless mouse, if that makes any sense? lol

does anyone know of any keycaps that fit a huntsman te and has japanese characters on it

sharp kindle
#

@white pecan aliexpress should have some

#

probably not the best

#

but

#

they probably have some

white pecan
#

is there a keyboard you recommend then

#

bc i dont mind selling the one i have for another which can get better keycaps

tacit wing
#

bc i dont mind selling the one i have for another which can get better keycaps
@white pecan GMK Wasabis

white pecan
#

are those keycaps?

tacit wing
#

yessir

#

the best of the best

white pecan
#

do you know if they will fit the huntsman te

tacit wing
#

well theyre cherry profile so yes

white pecan
#

ok

tacit wing
#

i think they are out of stock atm

white pecan
#

i was reading that the bottom row werent able to be swapped

#

but i gotta just look and see

tacit wing
#

for the Huntsman??

white pecan
#

thanks for the recommendation tho i was looking for black keycaps and these are the only ones ive seen

#

and yea

#

something like that

tacit wing
#

naaaah i think the TE switches are all standard

#

i have a friend that has HyperX puddings on that keeb

white pecan
#

oh thats good

#

i didnt want to sell the one i got but if i had to i wouldve

tacit wing
#

i think Corsair keebs have a non-standard bottom row

#

except for the new one that just dropped like yesterday

white pecan
#

ill have to look it up to make sure

tacit wing
#

Razer Optical Switches are standard cherries

white pecan
#

bc i was reading some keycaps that i want were not compatible

#

idk im not familiar with keyboards

tacit wing
#

well you have to look for cherry profile caps

white pecan
#

ok

#

so would thes work

tacit wing
#

those are Cherry profiles so yes it should be compatible

white pecan
#

ok

tacit wing
#

i reckon it says "Razer can't use it" because their old switches arently probably Cherry stems

white pecan
#

ok

#

and i can return them if they dont work?

tacit wing
#

like every review of the TE has some aftermarket cherry keycaps

#

on youtube

#

well i mean its Amazon so yeah

white pecan
#

ok good

#

imma order those then

#

i wish they had a cheaper option for black tho

#

i like those but im not ab to drop 150 for keycaps lmao

#

@tight pulsar you ever heard anyone play any instrument live?

#

(and not suck at it)

tight pulsar
#

haha yeah @amber oracle

amber oracle
#

which instrument?

tight pulsar
#

i play in a few bands

amber oracle
#

piano?

#

ah, then you know the "sound" that you get in a room that has wood walls?

#

not thin wood panel, but actual wood walls?

tight pulsar
#

not wood walls afaik

amber oracle
#

hm

#

different question

#

you ever play anywhere where it was concrete or stone all around?

tight pulsar
#

yeah

amber oracle
#

where the "bounced" sound is "sharp"?

#

and yes, concrete "eats" some sound

tight pulsar
#

the same kind of sound of a sharp tuning slide?

amber oracle
#

kinda yes

#

compare that to the sound of playing in a place with carpet

#

not 10cm deep carpet, but normal carpet

#

can you imagine how that "sounds"?

tight pulsar
#

yeah

#

would that be how warmer sounds?

amber oracle
#

that is "warm"

#

that difference

#

ish

tight pulsar
#

okay i think i get it

#

but something like 58x and 990 pros wont be like overwarm or something super different right? ik u say the 990 pros are super neutral

amber oracle
#

i dont find the 990's warm

tight pulsar
#

yeah i think ghost said the 58x are warm and u say the 990s are neutral

amber oracle
#

and its been too long since i had a pair of 58x on my head to remember them

tight pulsar
#

didnt know if its a super noticeable or large difference

amber oracle
#

i think the 990's might be the starkest/biggest contrast

#

because of their neutral sound

#

but, i think the musician in you, the technical side of that part of you that is, would adore them

#

because you get what you hear

tight pulsar
#

lol calling me a musician is a compliment jk

amber oracle
#

anyone that plays an instrument or sings is a muscician

tight pulsar
#

but i still have a little bit before im buying so ill look into it more

amber oracle
#

and they might not be aware of it themselves

#

but the "way" they "listen" to sound is generally very different to people that dont play/sing

tight pulsar
#

nah im just kidding im decent/good at my instrument

#

what do you mean by that?

amber oracle
#

you ever listened to something that is technically really really effing good together with someone that has nothing to evaluate the quality with? (experience wise)

tight pulsar
#

yeah a few times

amber oracle
#

try and think back to their reaction to it?

#

was their reaction a mirror of you?

#

as in

tight pulsar
#

not really

amber oracle
#

did they only really start talking AFTER you put words to what you heard?

#

as in, they "lacked" the words to describe what they heard?

tight pulsar
#

yeah and they didnt notice the subtle things like smaller crescendos and stuff

amber oracle
#

that is the "way" they listen

#

you cannot help but "hear" things like that

#

which is also why you enjoy good headphones

#

because it helps you hear those things "cleaner/easier"

tight pulsar
#

hm

amber oracle
#

not something you had thought about before huh?

tight pulsar
#

yeah lol

amber oracle
#

i would like to point back a number of sentences

#

"and they might not be aware of it themselves"

#

:)

tight pulsar
#

ya

#

quick question

amber oracle
#

aye?

tight pulsar
#

for the 990s would you suggest the 250 or 80ohm ones?

amber oracle
#

250

#

because you have amp etc

#

or at least will have at some point

tight pulsar
#

ya

amber oracle
#

and they are still useable on phones etc without

#

just dont expect battery life from your phone if you use them

tight pulsar
#

ill probably pick them up in a week or so and then get a bstock schiit stack

amber oracle
#

because they will pull ALL the power they can get away with

tight pulsar
#

yeah ill probably use them a lot more my pc than phone

amber oracle
#

:)

#

you know Florence and the Machine right?

tight pulsar
#

dont kill me no

#

i assume theyre a band

amber oracle
#

Florence + the Machine - [Ceremonials CD1 #01] Only If for a Night <- this album, but especially this track

#

on a pair of headphones that can deliver the goods?

#

oh yeah

#

The lead singer has a stupid range

tight pulsar
#

ill take a listen when i get home

#

thanks for the info, where/who is a good place for reviews?

amber oracle
#

head-fi

#

simply for the range of experience and number of reviews

tight pulsar
#

gotcha

amber oracle
#

because i doubt you have 10 random studio technicians that you can blabber with for weeks

tight pulsar
#

yeah thats a no for sure lol

amber oracle
#

:)

#

you like AC/DC?

tight pulsar
#

ya most their songs

amber oracle
#

start looking for the Donnington live concert

#

the blu-ray version

#

that is a very lovely mix

tight pulsar
#

slightly related question have any alt/rock/metal/that stuff music suggestions?

amber oracle
#

i probably do, but can we do a voice chat at some point to hammer out what you actually mean by that?

#

because i am old enough that most of those genres have changed about 720 and then some degrees since my youth

tight pulsar
#

yeah i should be free in a bit if ur talking about today

amber oracle
#

sure

#

10-ish minutes?

#

or you need more time?

tight pulsar
#

lol u make it sound like ur 80

#

yeah 10 is good

amber oracle
#

deal

west hornet
#

I listen to a lot of imperial circus dead decadence for j metal

amber oracle
#

j metal <- wth is that?

west hornet
#

Japanese metal lol

amber oracle
#

then say so, grasshopper :P

west hornet
#

Also some ne obliviscaris if I spell name right

#

I tried a pair of razer kraken te today and oof

#

Metal sounded about the worse from all genre I try

amber oracle
#

something like Florence would make you weep in shame at doing that

tight pulsar
#

@amber oracle ill hop on in a minute what vc?

last plinth
#

I should just get shp9500s

#

i guess

#

im convinced agane

#

#

@west hornet

tight pulsar
#

lol might wanna include a budget or else ghost is gonna recommend hella expensive ones

last plinth
#

#

pref under 120 tho

#

Also pls over ear aswell i want to be immersed in my game and theres gonna be ppl yelling in the back

calm cobalt
#

Does anyone have any good ideas for a custom design on the inkedgaming mouse pad?

tacit wing
#

i really like Inked pads. similar glide to the GSR-SE

#

can feel the coating withering away tho

last plinth
#

anyone wanna help me

#

;-;

tacit wing
#

aint we had this conversation like 4 times already

last plinth
#

yea but i wanna make sure

tacit wing
#

its your decision to make

last plinth
#

shp9500?

tacit wing
#

yessir

last plinth
#

If i get a second mic

tacit wing
#

easy to drive open-backs

last plinth
#

if not then hyperx

#

Sounds good?

tacit wing
#

hyperx what

last plinth
#

Cloud something

#

probaly alpha like u said

tacit wing
#

yup good drivers on those

#

theyre Takstar 80's

calm cobalt
#

@calm cobalt this is mine
@tacit wing any other ideas you got i cant think of any

tacit wing
#

@tacit wing any other ideas you got i cant think of any
@calm cobalt i mean the point of a custom pad is to have an image u want to see like everyday on your desk, if you cant think of any then might as well NOT go custom

calm cobalt
#

yea

#

i might just take one from csgo even tho i dont play

wispy spade
#

anyone have an apex 7?

calm cobalt
#

which one should i pick

last plinth
#

Neither

#

This

white pecan
#

i liked the bleach one @calm cobalt

tight pulsar
#

@calm cobalt whos gonna use the mousepad?

brisk parcel
#

think I'm gonna switch to Tidal from Spotify and use my student discount cause Imma student

#

any thoughts? recommend any other HiFi options?

amber oracle
#

Tidal HIFI is the highest bitrate streaming service last i looked @brisk parcel

brisk parcel
#

hmm okay, I know other people recommened qubuz and other things in the last, deezer HiFi, etc

amber oracle
#

its been years since i used a streaming service, so i am not up to date with it :)

brisk parcel
#

no worries man, just looking to make sure I'm not holding myself back cause I can definitely hear the difference now

amber oracle
#

:)

tight pulsar
#

hm so looked at reviews and think i decided on my upgrades

amber oracle
#

if you mention a gamer headset, i WILL build a trebuchet big enough to launch a smaller trebuchet at you

tight pulsar
#

haha no

#

58x’s+modi3 and magni3(+) depending if i can grab one bstock

brisk parcel
#

not too bad

#

I was gonna get a magni 3 but I wanna try tubes cause imma mad lad

tight pulsar
#

ive heard theres a decent difference with the 3 and 3+ so might just buy new and grab a modi bstock

amber oracle
#

oh? you decided that the 990's are too neutral?

tight pulsar
#

yeah ive been reading stuff and sounds like i would like something a little warm, and i have a $20 off them so theyre a little cheaper

amber oracle
#

fair :)

brisk parcel
#

you'll like them, both are good honestly

#

I have 58Xs too as you know but well mine are a little special because I modded them lmao

tight pulsar
#

yeah a lot of people have been saying that

#

should be a upgrade either way :)

brisk parcel
#

oh for sure

#

they go beautifully with a schiit stack too

#

down the line, pick up a tube amp if you can, trust me

#

all the sennheiser cans like the 58X, 6XX, 600, 650, 660S, LOVE tubes

#

since I use a G6 for my DAC/AMP combo atm it's why I'm getting a modi 3 and a LD mk2 instead of a magni cause I've tried solid state for so long

#

still praying the mods make an audiophile rule because I would shell out for that LMAO

west hornet
#

Qobuz is more affordable but I do believe tidal is highest quality

tight pulsar
#

hm the mk2 is 170ish tho

brisk parcel
#

really? I found it on amazon for $150

#

and comparatively to the Vali 2 it's a real, full on tube amp

tight pulsar
#

msrp was 180 and on amazon its 160 for me

#

vs like 100 for the schiit

brisk parcel
#

obviously go with your magni 3 for now cause of your budget and whatnot, tubes aren't really better, they're just different

amber oracle
#

hmm

brisk parcel
#

and yeah true, but if you're looking to get into tubes I would 100% look into the LD

#

naturally a solid state will cost less money that's just how it goes 🤷‍♂️

tight pulsar
#

hm are the 880pros the stepup model to the 990s?

amber oracle
#

they are "half-open"

brisk parcel
#

don't look half open to me lmao

amber oracle
#

compared to the 990's they are

west hornet
#

Hmm half open sound strange

warm scroll
#

are there any mmo mice reccomendations?

amber oracle
#

iirc, @stray bobcat is a BDO addict

#

so that might be someone to ask :)

warm scroll
#

thanks for the reference

tight pulsar
#

yep him and mr1

tacit wing
#

damn it i have to wait till my Schiit gets here before i plug these in

west hornet
#

you can plug em straight into pc for now

tacit wing

oh yeah but i want to nut on my first listen

@stray bobcat they want a mouse recommendation for mmo games tho, you got one?

nope cause BDO doesn't use hotbar all that much

any good keyboard reccommendations for 60%? looking for a clean keyboard, im not big on rgb but i dont mind some

you mean $60?

er maybe its called tenkeyless

#

smaller compact boards

little crater
#

tkl and 60% are different

#

if your gaming i would suggest a tkl cuz some games like to use the F keys

#

also idk how people can live without arrow keys

cause next to nothing uses them lol

daring zenith
#

@stray bobcat there's a ton of 60% kbs..? Or are you talking about something else?

stray bobcat
#

no idea that 60% means

daring zenith
#

You know how there's full sized kb, TKL, 65%, and 60% right?

#

TKL is a full without numpad, 65% is a tkl without the space between arrow keys and the rest, 60% is a tkl without the arrow keys

i was originally planning to get the WH1000XM4s from sony, but i realized my current pair of bluetooth headphones are fine, and i could pay way less for a proper headset
They are pretty sick tho. WH1000XM3s are also great and a good bit cheaper if you don't need the multi-device support 🙂

last plinth
#

Dont most 60% not have f1 keys

tight pulsar
#

yeah

#

fn/other keys missing from tkl or full sized are on layers

devout fiber
#

It’s gotta be at least 65%

#

Cause it’s got arrow keys and a few other ones on the left

tacit wing
#

thats like kinda the same layout as a KBD75v2

#

so im assuming 75%?

devout fiber
#

It was labeled as a 60% on amazon but it’s bigger than 60%

#

Idk

#

Whatever it is it’s my favorite layout

tight pulsar
#

lol i just glanced at it yeah its a 75%

#

dont know how i didnt seen the f row and right cluster

Opinions on gk61xs and geteron blues?

devout fiber
#

ive heard GK61 is pretty good and i know gaterons are pretty good so sure

last plinth
#

@tacit wing u think dt 990 pro is worth i might buy....

#

according to reviews its really comfy and sounds amazing

tacit wing
#

mmhm get you a pair of Ninja headphones

#

the treble is sharp on those

last plinth
#

yes or no tho

#

looks comfy

tacit wing
#

and its pretty high impedance

last plinth
#

yes or no

#

i dont know those big boy words

#

:(

tacit wing
#

yeah but u need to shelf out a little bit more to get an amp

last plinth
#

ok

#

what amp tho

tacit wing
#

schiit stack or atom stack are like the go-to $200 options

#

or u can even get a 2-in-1 like a K5 Pro or a Schiit Hel

last plinth
#

ok

tacit wing
#

idk if 250 ohms is considered demanding tho

west hornet
#

dt 990 pros neutral sounding, good for price, and there are a few different impedance models like 250ohm and 80ohm i believe

tacit wing
#

u def need an amp for 250

west hornet
#

if you want more isolation the dt 770 pro might be good

last plinth
#

not sure what im looking for

#

What abt 80 ohms

tacit wing
#

im looking for gf

last plinth
#

just get one 4Heed

tacit wing
#

no amp needed for that

last plinth
#

ok then should i pick 80ohm option or no

tacit wing
#

i can run my 150 ohm Senns through my phone

#

well do u plan to buy a dac+amp?

last plinth
#

probaly just a amp

tacit wing
#

either one would work if thats the case

last plinth
#

is 80ohm better than 250ohm or no

#

should i get sennhesier gsx 1000

#

For amp

#

or is it scammaz

tacit wing
#

u just want that for the surround sound huh

#

lemme tell u that feature doesnt do anything on that amp

#

according to Badseed it makes the sound worse

last plinth
#

Well no i just saw it did

#

ok

#

So i just want a amp

#

for headphones

#

Cuz im getting usb mic

tacit wing
#

get like a K5 pro

#

great for beginners

last plinth
#

ok

west hornet
#

good budget amp around price of gsx: schiit hel

tacit wing
#

schiit hel + a mod mic is a good gaming setup

west hornet
#

i love schiit love_it

last plinth
#

wait is there option for cheaper

#

or no

#

dont wanna blow 2 racks on a amp

tacit wing
#

schiit fula

#

99 bux

west hornet
#

idk a whole lot of dac amps but schiit's fulla is 100usd, and the hel is 189usd

last plinth
#

This?

tacit wing
#

bruh

#

dont get amazon

last plinth
#

ok

tacit wing
#

buy directly from Schiit

#

Amazon prices are higher for some reason

last plinth
#

boom

tacit wing
#

yessir

#

thats perfect

#

but if youre planing to get a USB mic it wont go through this

last plinth
#

yea ik

#

Wait then should i not get usb

#

might not since im getting amp

tacit wing
#

well naw the mic input in this is 3.5 jack not usb

last plinth
#

yea ik so should i get 3.5 jack mic

tacit wing
#

ModMic Uni

last plinth
#

I want like a whole seperate mic

#

if that makes sense

tacit wing
#

well go USB or XLR

last plinth
#

ok then i go usb

#

ty for all the help

tacit wing
#

xqcL

last plinth
#

is it gonna sound muddy or whatever tho

#

or is it gonna be PES_OkHand

tacit wing
#

whats gonna sound muddy?

last plinth
#

like if the amp doesnt supply enough power or something its gonna sound worse

tacit wing
#

not worse, you'll barely hear anything lol

last plinth
#

oh

#

then is the amp u gave me gonna be ok?

tacit wing
#

yup

daring zenith
#

no they want you to have bad sound

last plinth
#

OK

daring zenith
#

I mean why else would they suggest things

#

:P

last plinth
#

just wondering

#

dont wanna spend like 300$ on headphones and amp for it to be bad

#

would be lame

tacit wing
#

schiit fula gets your foot in the door with this whole dac+amp thing

#

for 99 dollars

last plinth
#

also dt 990 pros cost like 157$ right

#

according to amazon

#

one of the best moments of my life ong

amber oracle
#

i do NOT recommend just randomly picking up the DT 990's. Read reviews on them, read a LOT of reviews of them @last plinth

last plinth
#

i see one bad review and its about the headphones popping

amber oracle
#

when i say reviews what do you think it means?

wispy spade
#

just say that its crap if thats what u meant

last plinth
#

oh videos

#

:P

#

i did

#

i watched like 19

#

but skimmed thru most of them

amber oracle
#

reviews are read

#

read reviews.

last plinth
#

like articles?

#

or on the site where u buy

amber oracle
#

if you are okay with "skimming" a number of videos . Best of luck!

last plinth
#

Tell me whats wrong with it

#

the dt 990

amber oracle
#

if you are buying actual audio gear, which the 990's squarely belong in. You really should read actual reviews of them

last plinth
#

where to find that info

amber oracle
#

head-fi

last plinth
#

ok

#

ppl are saying dt 770 is better

amber oracle
#

congratulations, you skimmed again

last plinth
#

am i searching the wrong thing up

#

i only see dt 990 vs 770

amber oracle
last plinth
#

also when i watched videos some ppl said its really good and other said its too sharp

#

@amber oracle looks fine to me

amber oracle
#

you are skimming again

last plinth
#

I wont be listening to music that much or try to like those guys are

#

but 880s are better according to review

#

mixed feelings rn

#

also imma play fps a lot

#

and boosted bass is nice

#

ez footstep hearing

amber oracle
#

they do NOT have a boosted bass

tacit wing
#

cntrlkey we've had this conversation like 5 times already

amber oracle
#

again, read the reviews

last plinth
#

well he told me not to get 990

amber oracle
#

and actually engage with the words on your screen

#

you might learn something

last plinth
#

yea well naed idk what im looking for

amber oracle
#

and i never said you should NOT get them

last plinth
#

im audio noob

amber oracle
#

i said to NOT randomly pick them up

last plinth
#

oh

#

yea

amber oracle
#

read.

#

it helps.

last plinth
#

i guess

#

i can read

tacit wing
#

yea well naed idk what im looking for
@last plinth everytime we suggest something you said youll get them and come back again asking if another set of headphones are good lol

last plinth
#

no but he said to randomly not pick them up

amber oracle
#

the 990's are quirky when compared to a fair number of other headphones in that price range.

tacit wing
#

i told u the shp9500's are a good starter open-backs that are light on the wallet

#

itll deliver the imaging you want

last plinth
#

ill just get 770 or 990

tacit wing
#

thats what u said about SHP's

#

thats what u said about the Clouds

last plinth
#

yea well i found something better

tacit wing
#

alright man i hope u finally make ur decision soon lol

last plinth
#

I dont want audio to leak out

tacit wing
#

omg lol

last plinth
#

frick it im getting 990

tacit wing
#

since you wanted "surround-sound" headphones, u really have no choice but to go open-backs and that will leak sound no matter what

last plinth
#

yep

#

Next time i talk in here hopefully ill have me stuff

amber oracle
#

your "logic" jumps are both amazing and head scratchingly weird

last plinth
#

true

#

i guess.. sadge

tacit wing
#

i guess.. :sadge:
@last plinth i think for your application, you're just overthinking your options

#
