dusty surfaces is the takeaway @west hornet

west hornet
#

yes i need to dust peepoSadSip

#

dust buildup in 1 day 😦

amber oracle
#

suure :P

thick plank
#

Idk but if you do the opamp mod, power brick mod, felt mod, and pad mod I would argue there isnt a single better well rounded headphone under 10,000usd

#

It also has less sub bass rolloff than most estats and insane bass impact

unreal gust
#

Would desks be considered a peripheral? Have a question but don't wanna ask in the wrong channel.

normal barn
#

that more than me not cleaning my laptop in 1 year

west hornet
#

wow everyone complainging about dust

#

touchy touchy

swift lantern
#

What is it with electrostats and having bad bass

tight pulsar
#

that looks exactly how i imagined ur setup to look ngl @west hornet

thick plank
#

Because they mostly use small movements of usually mylar film to create sound @swift lantern

#

So you need a huge estat driver to create a lot of bass in that small movement

#

Fortunately the 95x has a massive driver

swift lantern
#

Are they physically not capable of moving slower

#

That just occurred to me

west hornet
thick plank
#

They can't move far

swift lantern
#

Do they kinda require a minimum speed

thick plank
#

Even if they move slow they don't move the driver much

swift lantern
#

But what you're saying is an optimized dynamic + an electrostat creates the best sound, ever

#

Yesssss

thick plank
#

So because that small distance something like 10hz won't sound loud on most estats

#

Well for speakers yess

#

For headphones you lose bass imaging

#

The best option for headphones is something like what the 95x did

#

Big estat driver

swift lantern
#

A well optimized dynamic will serve you well

thick plank
#

Dynamics are just a worse tech

#

Compared to plannars and estats especially

swift lantern
#

Bass tho

thick plank
#

They are slower, have less bass extension (even if compared to estats the drop-off isnt as soon), and tend to exhibit harsher tones in high-end drivers

#

Dynamics are the worst option for bass unless you mean something like a subwoofer which is meant just for bass frequencies

#

And even there you would do better with a plannar subwoofer

swift lantern
#

Ok one of those then

#

In headphone

thick plank
#

Would make a bad headphone

#

I remember a company tried that

#

And it resulted in singke directional bass

#

That was not properly placed

neon quartzBOT
#
fortnut#7992 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

thick plank
#

And it messed up how frequencies interact

swift lantern
#

I just want bass that kicks my ass AND accuracy is that so much to ask

thick plank
#

And larger estat drivers can do that

#

The 95x has the heaviest bass impact of any non bass meme headset I have tried

#

Even if not the loudest sub bass

#

It has a ton of extension and a ton of impact

#

So you notice it

#

And it is due to the driver size

swift lantern
#

I'll have to try them I guess

#

You say they need a bunch of mods tho?

#

any recommendations for chairs that aren't exactly "gaming chairs?" the racing lookin chairs aren't exactly my thing

lucid tulip
#

hey guys, any good headsets you recommend? below $110 is good:)

timber ridge
lucid tulip
#

yep!

timber ridge
#

try cb1s and fifine mic combo

#

it should come around 110 or so and its prob the best budget combo

lucid tulip
#

thanks!

timber ridge
#

np

lucid tulip
#

just watched a review about the cb1, from a guy named Z-reviews.

I find myself wanting the Philips sph9500...

lucid tulip
#

I was looking at reviews then saw that his(Z-reviews) most viewed video is the shp9500
apparently it's good for gaming, Hardware Canucks also made a review about itπŸ’―

timber ridge
#

but both will give you a better sound experienced compared to gaming headsets

#

its also close back vs open back, so that can be put in consideration

lucid tulip
#

agree, many say "Gaming" in products, especially chairs, are just gimmicks

timber ridge
#

yea gaming chairs are terrible

#

some gaming headsets are p good tho

#

hyperx and coolermaster

#

some ppl consider the shps overrated but theyll do better than a gamer headset

west hornet
#

@sturdy sinew personally I really like the rode nt1

swift lantern
#

Magni... Or k5

#

Or something else

#

Decisions decisions

#

The headphones shall arrive by next Monday

timber ridge
#

is there anything better than the zen amp thats around the same price?

rugged lion
#

guys i think i overlubed my stabs because now my space bar and backspace key dont return back up they just stay ddown

#

and kinda just tap them and they activiate

#

how do i fix this

swift lantern
#

A towel?

swift lantern
#

JDS atom maybe idk kinda depends

#

I don't like the ifis cuz they use balanced all over the place and that's annoying

cunning hearth
#

Schiit stack best

swift lantern
#

Ok well now that I'm looking into it the k5 actually seems kinda under powered

#

Although it is also a dac I wonder if that's part of it

cunning hearth
#

Then relube

#

Less is more with thicker lubes like 205g0

queen sigil
#

when you lube your stabs with concrete

#

??????????????????????????????

cunning hearth
#

Hm

queen sigil
#

ive never had that problem

cunning hearth
#

Well if u smear half the container on then duh itll feel weird

swift lantern
#

Is the real reason to have separate dacs and amps just so you can have an amp with an absurd amount of juice

cunning hearth
queen sigil
#

nonono like

#

ive never seen anybody lube it that much

swift lantern
#

I just want an amp that will juice the ever loving schiit out of my stuff

calm cobalt
#

Does the Razer Kraken X USB headset work with PS4?

swift lantern
#

If it's usb it should work with anything with a usb port

calm cobalt
#

I think so

swift lantern
#

Also it's a gaming headset so almost 100%

calm cobalt
#

Is it a good headset?

daring zenith
#

Most gaming headsets aren't

#

PC37x op >:P

rugged lion
#

maybe not the smartest idea of mine

calm cobalt
#

Ima use a gaming headset for gaming...

#

nothing else...

rugged lion
#

2 of my stabs came out just fine others did not

daring zenith
#

uh yes

#

for gaming

rugged lion
#

its a valid strat

queen sigil
#

normal cherry stabs

#

or some other stabs

calm cobalt
#

I need a good gaming USB headset under 100$ compatible with PS4 Pro

rugged lion
#

let me look what the nk65 comes with

queen sigil
#

nk65 comes with clip in stabs

#

yeah and do u know how to lube stabs

rugged lion
#

apparently not

queen sigil
#

or are you just nuking it

rugged lion
#

well i did half of them perfectly

#

my enter and shift sound amazing

#

i just over applied on my space and backspace

queen sigil
#

but like

#

are you dissassembling everything to lube it

rugged lion
#

yeah

#

and i washed the old off

queen sigil
#

then just relube it

rugged lion
#

yeah

#

it was factory lubed partially

#

and i clipped them

#

i just blatantly over applied i tihkn

queen sigil
rugged lion
#

yeah as a i press down i can feel like lube like stopping it

queen sigil
#

I mean

#

that shouldnt happen

#

uhhhhh

rugged lion
#

i think i could be because the inside of th ekycaps just have lube everywher

#

imma g o claen them out

queen sigil
#

???????????????????

rugged lion
#

the lube was in the like stabilizer stems

#

so it gotinto the keycap stems

#

that kind of fixed my space bar but my backspace is still broken

#

space bar is still broken i lied

#

not sure what to i tried to wash them out (stabs) and i washed out the keycaps

#

my theory is i overlubed the housing and the stem is getting like stuck there

little crater
#

so like

#

i guess these dudes are still alive

tight pulsar
#

ive lubed my fair share of stabs and its pretty hard to overlube them enough to make them not work right

west hornet
little crater
#

always nice to have lots of spare RCA cables

west hornet
#

Ya I didn’t know I had so many I keep a few in case, also I didn’t know 3.5mm to rca was a thing haha

best cable right there

#

i have a 3.5 to dual male rca, and a dual female rca to 3.5

super useful

#

AC/DC literally haven't changed their sound and style for like 40 years

#

literally every song on this new album sounds the same, and also sounds the same as every other AC/DC album in the last 40 years

#

and thats why they're a terrible band

#

its a shame since they got talent, but my god they need to do something different with it

west hornet
#

Changing up things once in a while is nice

swift lantern
#

Im sure their fans are stoked

Just got a 3.5 to rca the other day for potential amp compatibility

keen zenith
#

any good reccomendations for wireless mechanical keyboards that are tenkeyless?

#

if it isnt tenkeyless must have media keys

queen sigil
#

define wireless

#

2.4ghz or bluetooth

keen zenith
#

either

#

just cant have a wire

queen sigil
#

Are you going to be gaming with this keyboard

keen zenith
#

yes

queen sigil
#

Gaming with it in wireless mode?

keen zenith
#

yyes

queen sigil
#

So usually with wireless keyboards you're going to be either getting 2.4ghz to be gaming

#

But good 2.4ghz keyboards are rare

#

And anyways ur gonna have to charge the keyboard alot

sturdy sinew
#

@west hornet i have been looking at a shure mv7 I think is what it’s called but I was looking around and I was seeing a lot of people recommended the rode nt1

keen zenith
#

ok

queen sigil
#

and what's ur budget

keen zenith
#

under 110

queen sigil
#

110USD?

keen zenith
#

yes usd

queen sigil
#

The only keyboard I know of around that price is maybe the KC 84

keen zenith
#

also rgb not ugly colored keycaps

queen sigil
#

But i've never tried it so I don't know how good it is

keen zenith
#

rip

queen sigil
#

I don't know any good keyboard that's wireless

keen zenith
#

it doesnt have to be like super fast reactive keys

#

i just need one that works

#

and is wireless with rgb

queen sigil
#

that doesn't have crazy low quality specs

west hornet
#

M7v is nice, it like the usb/xlr version of the sm7b, strangely I see some say they prefer the sound via usb instead of xlr @sturdy sinew

queen sigil
#

Also no clue what you mean by "fast reactive keys"

keen zenith
#

i dont need something thats like super advanced

queen sigil
#

Yeah still no clue what you're talking about

keen zenith
#

i just need a keyboard

#

that is wireless

#

and mechanical

#

with rgb

queen sigil
#

It's a keyboard

#

that's wireless

#

and rgb

#

no clue what you want

keen zenith
#

i just described what i want

sturdy sinew
#

@west hornet yea but when I was looking at like reviews on youtube I was seeing a trend where it was only really worth it if you used both inputs. Thats why im considering other options

queen sigil
#

If it was up to me I wouldnt even get a wireless keyboard

#

but this is something that fills ur description

#

There arent decent 2.4ghz in your budget

#

and most wireless keyboards have a small battery

#

And if you want a bluetooth you're gonna need to plug it in or it's gonna have alot of delay

sturdy sinew
#

@west hornet also I would be upgrading from a blue yeti mic

daring zenith
#

@queen sigil could just give them a Keychron K8 and be done with it

queen sigil
#

yeah but they need a "gaming" keyboard

daring zenith
#

K8 is gaming

#

:P

queen sigil
#

so 2.4ghz

#

so u dont get like 300ms delay

daring zenith
#

k8 uses bluetooth

queen sigil
#

yes

#

bluetooth bad for gamer

sturdy sinew
#

the DIERYA DK63 and the anne pro 2 seem to be nice wireless gaming keyboards

queen sigil
#

its BT

daring zenith
#

huh

queen sigil
#

Also they wanted TKL

tight pulsar
#

lol gaming keyboards

sturdy sinew
#

oh nvm

queen sigil
daring zenith
#

ou,hbgnjkl yi

daring zenith
#

Yes

sturdy sinew
#

is the rode nt1 a good upgrade over the blue yeti mic?

swift lantern
#

Is $110 for a schiit magni 1 dac AND amp a good deal

#

Nvm

west hornet
#

I’m not sure what the differences between the nt1 and nt1a are but I’d say it’s a nice upgrade if setup properly. also keeping in mind you need a interface for a xlr mic and it does also come down to what you are satisfied with

swift lantern
#

Yeah what's the deal with xlr microphones

#

Can you hook them up to an external preamp of sorts or do they require an internal soundcard

sturdy sinew
#

@west hornet how much would the interface cost?

molten fern
#

i got a 144hz monitor but idk if i need a display port even tho it came with a hdmi(idk if its 2). So does someone know how to tell hdmi cables apart and or if i need to get a DP

floral quartz

molten fern
#

i thought it was a dp or hdmi 2

#

or just dp

daring zenith
#

@timber ridge hdmi 2.0 and hdmi 1.4b can both do 144hz 1080p

west hornet
#

My interface which is motu m2 i got for ~150usd, the cheapest there is is about 40usd. I might’ve seen some bundles with nt1 and a interface you can research @sturdy sinew

timber ridge
molten fern
#

have what

daring zenith
#

hdmi 1.4b

#

is very common

sturdy sinew
#

@west hornet when you mean interface do you mean a amp? or am I dumb

daring zenith
#

That's what my monitor came with

timber ridge
#

i thought 1.4b caps at 120

daring zenith
#

natively 120hz, but most panels have optimizations that allow for 144hz

molten fern
#

my monitor came with a hdmi but idk what kind. do u know how i can tell them apart @daring zenith

daring zenith
#

Like on mine

#

@molten fern just plug it in

#

and see what the max you can set the refresh rate to is

west hornet
#

It’s a adc and preamp. Converts a audio signal to a digital usb signal

daring zenith
#

afterall, if it works, it works.

west hornet
#

Usb mics have them built in

sturdy sinew
#

gotfcha

#

so the Scarlett Solo thingy is a audio interface?

west hornet
#

Yup, also podcastage yt channel I like for mic and some interface reviews, he pretty thorough and organized with them

sturdy sinew
#

I also have a 250 ohm headset so I need a amp with both of em right

sturdy sinew
#

huh

timber ridge
#

wait i mightve misread that, if you asking if you need an amp for a 250 ohm headset

#

its not needed

sturdy sinew
#

well I already have one but I wanna get a xlr mic so I would need a interface thingy with both the xlr and amp for my headset

west hornet
#

Not necessarily, but I also don’t know the whole info on what makes a headphone hard to drive. Some interfaces do have pretty good headphone outputs tho. I was very surprised with the headphone out on my motu m2 tho I still prefer a different dac/amp for casual listening for some reason

sturdy sinew
#

wait I can use both at the same time?

tacit wing
#

for an interface i recommend the Audient Evo 4

sturdy sinew
#

like 2 different amps

west hornet
#

Ya ofc and many interfaces have direct monitoring for the mic inputs

#

Headphone out and speaker out could be mixed tho, headphone might turn off with speaker connected and stuff on some interface

#

Evo 4 is nice

sturdy sinew
#

I went to that podcatage dude and I was looking at the 3030 audio gear gift guide and I saw a interface thingy for 50 bucks

#

it was the Behringer um2

#

the evo 4 also looks nice

#

is that Behringer um2 a actual good option for the rode nt1?

west hornet
#

For a nt1 I’d go a bit higher. The um2 is a bit noisy and I had problems with the headphone out and direct monitoring. It a ok option for more budget mics tho

sturdy sinew
#

what about he evo 4?

west hornet
#

From first glance it looks nice, ya might have to look up a review for it idk much on that one

sturdy sinew
#

okay

#

I will

#

other then the evo 4 is there any other ones you could suggest?

west hornet
#

I love my motu m2, focusrite 2i2 is also very popular, possibly the solo too

sturdy sinew
#

I hvae heard good things on any of hte scarlett thigns

tacit wing
#

evo 4 is pretty beginner friendly

its a smart interface

tacit wing
timber ridge
#

issa nice color

#

my iems are basically chrome and stand out a lot

swift lantern
#

How hard a headphone is to drive is determined both by it's Ohms and it's listed efficiency in dB/watt

#

The 6xx despite being a 300ohm isn't incredibly hard to drive for example

west hornet
#

standout iems is nice, then you get people staring at your ears xD

timber ridge
#

i was supposed to get them earlier but my budget could only afford blon 03s

#

rough times

queen sigil
#

actually idk

timber ridge
#

o dino,how does the dt880s compare to the 990s

tacit wing
#

the 990's have a travel peak thats leans it toward the brighter side

#

990's are more polarizing to alot of people and some find that peak offensive, while some love it

#

also 880's are more neutral and the bass is more pronounced but both cans are bright and u-shaped

timber ridge
#

kk

#

so its looking like my audio upgrade is gonna be dt 880s and zen amp

#

unless there is any other combo that is similar price

tacit wing
#

880's are pog

#

o god i really wanna get more IEM's

#

the SSP's gave me an itch and i wanna scratch it

timber ridge

enter the $60 price range

it's only about 20 episodes rn but it's good

its a review

idk much about keyboard and i am not very picky with them but i know sadly with audio many widespread stores don't have any decent headphones, you have to go searching to a store with decent equipment that may not even be available in most area

#

most people will just buy and if they don't like then resell or abuse amazon return policy

unreal sable
unreal sable
# normal barn Ofc not

the Razer i seen looks a lot better than the Logitech, if you say No, it really fools me

west hornet
#

razer i know people complain a lot about in keyboards. personally i own a blackwidow and can just say it has a lot of stem wobble on the switches and its made of plastic

unreal sable
west hornet
#

generally model matters more then brand tho. razer recently has some nice mouse, and their blackshark v2 headset look ok, i like my viper. i think some people here been recommending some keychron keyboards lately. im not a keyboard person tho. can't say much on it

wouldnt recommend getting a keyboard from one of the big gamer companies

personally, I bought the K100, like I just bought it, got it on sale for $180. and it's gonna replace my K55. at the price I don't really know anything better, and I do love the quality of the RGB

something that naed and I talked about a lot πŸ˜‚

I'm all for spending a little extra to get that higher saturation and brighter colors

im no cable wizard

i dont own an aviator cable

and I do really like the numpad, I use it all the time

I also use the macro keys on my K55 a lot

so I guess it comes down to use case

like for work I may get a custom keeb but idk yet

if your keyboard makes you happy, then its not a bad purchase

if you have a bleak view on any peripherals, whether be it audio or keyboards (not mice), most of these gaming whatevers will do the job

timber ridge

some ppl dont understand that

tight pulsar
#

the further down the rabbit hole u go the more u cant find endgame true story peepoSadSip

brisk parcel
#

I guess I'm just special in a sense that I use the numpad a LOT, so I never buy a keeb without one, where I can also see the appeal of a 60-65%, etc

#

it obv makes sense that gamer keebs are a bit cheaper since they mass produce and you can't customize much aside from lighting

west hornet
#

All the rabbit holes peepoSadSip

brisk parcel
#

could you buy keycaps too? since cherry switches have a standard way that the caps actually attach

tight pulsar

going from a fullsized to 60 was very nice for my mouse and just general desk space

like I said I'm special, and a numpad is kinda essential so

finding a custom keeb at $180 with all that is pretty hard

you can find a 65% and a dedicated num pad all for 180
