ight, boutta spend more on my headphones than i did my CPU + GPU + mobo + ram + SSD
aeons are tempting me
but if i were to spend that type of money, id prob get e-mu teaks
lol
the aeons have weird reviews and people say sundaras are better and like half the cost but they smexy
yea they look really nice
yes the aeons
this is gonna be bold
but i could argue the apple earbuds sound the same quality wise
does the keychron c1 have a pbt keycap set?
I think stock keycaps are pbt
no its doubleshot abs
Huh, they are, but it looks like it's fairly standard and you can just find some random oem profile pbt keycap set
https://www.keychron.com/pages/c1-keycap-layout-and-keycap-size-hd-picture
Here is the C1 keycap layout and size chart overview. The keycap is designed for the Keychron C1 keyboard. Different rows on the keyboard have different heights and slope profiles and Keychron C1 keycap uses OEM profile with MX style. Therefore the C1 keyboard is compatible with other OEM profile keycaps in the market.
anyone able to suggest a dedicated microphone for me
ghosty is the mic man
budget?
Well I got a $90 neweggbusiness giftcard that I gotta use asap. Willing to put additional to get me to $200. Would like a boom and a microphone.
from cheapest to highest: fifine mic, samsun q2u, wave1/3
do any of those require software or other devices? For example some headphones needing an amp.
wait if doubleshot is specified does that mean the k series isnt doubleshot?
I believe so
Wait, misread this. Yea, atom amp is good but not atom dac, schiit stack is bad except the schiit modius and magnius but then those are bad in dynamic range and noise (great at the though)
Those are both overhyped pretty overall bad parts unfortunately
95x is great
My budget was $50 lol
That’s why I said
Then why were you sending images of the 95x?
lol what
For 50 ur40 is good
the c series is budget
wdym
keychron doesnt have stock PBT keycaps
you can buy PBT keycaps from them
but their keycaps are ABS
Literally got UD40s lol
yea keychron c is supposed to be a decent amount cheaper than k
and it is?
yea it can get like $30 cheaper than k
is that a calibur v2?
@calm cobalt
You talking about headphones or something else?
keyboard
it looks like the drevo keyboards
and the only 60% i remember is calibur
Oh, no haha it’s an E-Element Z88. Chinese keyboard with outemu reds
oh huh
It’s 65% or 70% I think
reminded me of the drevo logo
what
drevo is a budget keeb company
@thick plank I was commenting on the name of "95x" sounding like sennheiser product
welp, gonna try to get rid of my airpods
gonna see if i can get a ifi hip dac to replace it lol
either that or xduoo xd05 or whatever
i want cycling arm warmers
since I have leg warmers and a waterproof windbreaker jacket thing
but I want something that I can take off and stash easier
like compression sleeves
im trying to buy a new mouse, i currently own the corsair dark core se wireless whatever its called, the 100$ one. does corsair make a similar yet higher end mouse or no?
nasty
lol why would you want a corsair mouse
damn bruh you forgot the part where i asked your opinion, what i asked was if corsair made a better mouse. i am in no way loyal to corsair, i just like their products. i already own a k95 and hate using multiple softwares for things i own so i have a dark core se wireless, and want to upgrade
well then chances are you arent gonna get a recommendation
Because nobody here wants to recommend a bad mouse just because they dont like software
oh hey we found out who bought that charity bike
ya it went up to like 60k or something
probably had to figure out how to pay it without it getting blocker or something idk
but basically whoever bought it all the money they paid was gonna get donated to their local trails
they dont
alright, thanks
np, considering you used the dark core im guessing you use palm grip
coolermaster is releasing a new lightweight ergo mouse, might wanna wait for that
im honestly perfectly fine with the mouse i have, im just going for the ultimate setup so i wanted to spend more money lol
"ultimate setup"
ill keep this one until i find somethign compelling to change to


i would steer away from corsair mice if you want an ultimate setup
corsair peripherals in general

their pc parts are fine tho
i personally really like everything ive gotten form corsair, i have yet to find anything i dislike about my k95 or my mouse honeslty
damn lance
stop having more exp than me
If you just want something that works then you can get anything
It's just the fact that their peripherals are low quality and overpriced
i dont entirely agree with that but ok
they arent bad products in general, just bad for the price
i dont really care about the price honestly.
youre paying the price premium for the logo more than the product itself
okay otd board it is
ill spend however much i want to, i just have to like it
Most gaming companies when it comes to keyboards just do a bad job at every pricepoint
my point is, most peripherals from gaming companies are overpriced and you can way better at the same price point and cheaper
ok?
excluding mice
build wise, there isnt much dif between a 200 corsair keyboard and 70 dollar red dragon
the only bad gaming company i can think of is razer and thermaltake
bruh so its like purely a placebo effect
eh
as long as you like it you think it's good
then just get the cheapest thing that you think is good
chances are it will last a year or two
and it'll do it's job
hm i wonder how much it would be to 3d print a mech27 lol
mech27 worse
I don't exactally get like mean in the way that I know im being mean unless they say something that makes me want to annoy them
It was this message for me
some ppl
Oh... it doesn't really sound like either of those other than in the very loose sense of being mids centric
hes talking about the naming scheme
Is it possible to put kiwi switches in a keychron k4?
I think i will pick one up if it ever goes in stock and then use money of a sale of a bequiet case my mate gave me for free to buy some sweet kiwis
Both are never in stock but whatever
sure as long as its not optical and its hotswap
Ok
if i recalled correctly, the 16th kiwi restocks
could be wrong, jus know its restocking soon
Well, the 30— has taught me well in the art of stock getting
@devout fiber

Actually sounds pretty dang good
Hey i want to connect speakers to my monitor but it has no audio jacks (my laptop audio jack dosent work) can anyone recommend me something that will make it work? Like a specific jack to usb dongle.
Wait so your using it on laptop? Or a pc, is there a reason you say monitor specifically
he has his laptop connected to his monitor
and yeah a usb to 3.5 mm adapter will work
i don't understand. ive literally replaced everything in the setup except for my pc...
its still not resolved yet?
smh i thought ghosty was mic person
ive gone on forums and discords many times, no one can figure out what my issue is
im starting to think its the pc
but i did just test it straight into an outlet so i am out of ideas -_-
there is no way possible that it is THIS sensitive to emi, everything has been replaced, this has not always been an issue
Omg I might be close to finding issue
🙏
I sit here replacing everything and the issue might be the circuit breaker -_-
could someone recommend me a good mouse for small hands? aswell as a keyboard
do you know your grip type ?
and budget
right handed, four fingers and a thumb, palm aswell
preferably like 80-100$ for the mouse and like 120-160 for the keyb
the pinned messages has a list of grip types
maybe thatll help you find yours, if it didnt help you can send a pic of you hold a mouse
from like the side
visual representation of grip types
ig palm grip
model D - would probably be a good mouse for you if you use palm grip and have small hands
use the flowchart in the pinned messages for keyboard options
if you have any further questions about either keyboard or mouse, just
@ me
I have been useing a corsair m65 pro for so long with the finger grip
Honestly useing any other mouse is dead to me
Ok @daring zenith I have my final verdict
It’s nice. I can hear some differences but really it’s nothing to freak put about for me.
It hurts my ears when I use them for about 2 hours
But they coo
hm ok
lemme go find that switch flowchart
@stoic solar
This is the more expensive stuff, but yea
the heck
looks like theyre stems
for the god tier one
god i hate that guy
but anyway yeah that is supposed to uhmwpe stems in panda housings and the long name is basically a meme with nixdorf/hirose/zeal/everglide stems
what the hell
and the ones to the left of that are just really old vints
what
@tight pulsar I still don't get the acronym
uhmwpe?
Yes
that has nothing to do with that switch thats just the name of material the stem (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene is what its made out of)
also just bought 90 greetech browns for 9+shipping lol
people just call them pe stems cause its easier or bumwipe cause the v2s were really bad
lol
@tight pulsar help translate into english please
wut
You don't know what a bum wipe is?
okay so basically somebody decided to make a stem out of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene cause its really smooth vs the normal pom stem everything is made of. thats a really long name so people called them uhmwpe stems and thats also hard to say so they just called them pe stems. they were pretty good so they decided to slightly change the tooling to make them better. these new ones were called v2 and sucked like a lot so people called them bumwipe cause it sounds like uhmwpe kinda (they were smaller than normal stems and caused the stem to be angle kinda like in the photo and really inconsistent quality). 415keys sells actually good versions called rev3 or something but basically thats it
lmao the dude i bought the greetechs's paypal business is called lysols clean keebs
okay then
Looking for a pair of small form factor speakers. Don't need anything fancy, just a 2.0 setup. Anyone have a thought? Was thinking like the Bose companion 2 or creative t100.
I know physics says bigger is better, so I'm not expecting miracles.
Why not just a pair of headphones?
Have a 2 and 4 year old, can't have myself oblivious to the world
I mean, open back headphones are pretty nice still
@sly warren know any decently cheap pads that would be good for ur40? Just wondering, might getting em soon.
There are no pads that keep the same sound yet are more comfortable.
hm alright then
Yeah I'll probably get a set of headphones as well. Still want a set of speakers though
Hell, you might want to try ur40s xD
they're cheap, supposed to sound good, open back.
I'll check them out. Thanks!
hmm idk too many speakers but klipsch promedia 2.1 might be good
They do sound amazing.
The UR40's are basically the best cheap headphones you can buy.

There's really only 1 other option, and that's the CAL SE's
Outside of those 2, everything else sub ~200 dollars is just garbage.
BOLD words
oooh
dt880s are like 200
imo if your budget cant allow for headphones over $60 or so i would look for some iems
@timber ridge I was responding to skiptrace talking about sub 200$ stuff
oh
dt880s are good
wish the headphone market was as wide as the iem market
theres like a good iem for every price range
2usd
but yeah there's twenty quadrillion sub $100 iems
and 10 quadrillion sub $200 ones
lol
@timber ridge bro via needs your keycap to be compatible otherwise it won't work
The AKG IEM's that came with my Samsung are honestly great
Better than my Sennheiser IEM's
those are comfortable
The sound is pretty good too
the type c ones?
No, 3.5mm
do they come in type c now?
they dont give you a charger brick or earphones now
comes with a Type-C to 3.5 adatper
i opend up my s21 ultra and only got a sim removal tool and usb c to usb c cable
Wifes S20 came with both
you have a wife
XD
vintage already secured the bag
I'm old
so again, why isn't usb c used for like, everything
like even if something can't take advantage of the fast charging or data transfer, I just mean the physical format
micro usb is a deal breaker for me
when i was younger and was forced to buy tablets bc i couldnt have a phone
like legit all my tablets usb port would break or whatever
I've had problems with micro usb cables breaking but not ports
honestly they should just come up with an axial data transfer cable for everything
I'm fairly made up on getting an xduoo, but I'm debating on which one
and I'm waiting for that stimmy that I'll hopefully get
oh yeah it definitely is
that's why it's actually just gonna be my desktop setup, with a battery option

and for that reason I might just end up going with xd-05 plus or whatever
p sure it got discontinued
there's an xp-2 and xp-2 pro
prices are pretty close if i remember correctly
xp-2 pro does 300mw at 32 ohm, it's more slim and also bluetooth capable
next to a phone

the guy im trying to sell my old phone to replies super slow
but im debating if i should maybe get a portable setup too
dunno yet
I really like the idea of both as I've said before but it's seeming like it would make more sense to go with a dedicated desktop setup and just like, a dongle for the phone
since none of the iems I'm gonna use are gonna be THAT demanding
ye true
and I'm also gonna try to steer cleer of overly sensitive ones too
that's just annoying
in order for that to be the case it would need the little circuit that does it like in e10k
theoretically, possible within a small-ish form factor
but I don't know if it could be put in anything smaller than a hip-dac
airpods 2 are gonna come out soon
might consider maybe getting them if theyre good
they already stomp in anc
airpods 2?
yup
cool
if you buy an apple product I will actually shun you
lol
wdym iphones are good
I think I'd like to try the tin t4 one of these days too, just to see how they compare
lmao
in this house we temporarily support android as being the superior choice for regular human beings up until a 3rd party alternative can take over
if you dont need imessage or facetime, dont think theres any reason to go with an iphone
I believe google finally got the license or whatever for RCA messaging now too so
yeah, no reason
anyone who was getting an iphone probably has the data anyway though
let's not lie

a lotta ppl get iphone to fit in
sub $300 android gang
kinda sad ngl
it really is
the definition of electronic waste
hey let me get a $1200 phone so I can snapchat all day
chill out bruv
but they messed up on the 12 big time
rumors is theyre bringing back the s naming scheme
they have so many anti consumer things it don't matter
so iphone 12s this year and its basically gonna be what the reg 12 was supposed to be
the 12 is a miss
they're so mask off "give me your money
" at this point
12s may have no ports
none at all?
nope
not even lightning or usb c or whatever?
either gonna happen this gen, with the 12s max pro or whatever
does that mean u have to buy extra charger
or theyll wait one more generation
Steve Jobs
im not sure if apple is gonna give you the magsafe charger
i would hope so, bc its something new

if they dont thats a scam
i had a iphone 12 preorder but i cancelled and got nothing
I wonder what would happen if apple somehow suddenly disappeared
samsung gave me basically 250 to spend on whatever i want for preordering
no ports is not the move
because as it turns out, all big corporations are kinda evil, who would've thunk it
apple is good
no
we haven't even discussed their biggest glaring terribleness
and their laptops are nice too
a lot of ppl blindly buy apple products
seriously they have the worst price:peformance out there
and live inside the apple bubble lol
Depends what you use it for
and I didn't even mention that they don't have expandable storage
Their new laptops can be decent
which is the most laughable thing in the universe
their laptops are good
not for gaming
but productivity
the intel apple laptops beg to differ
bc thats what u use a laptop for
they melt
laptop market is filled with good laptops
Apples audio routing is so much better
amd laptops are op
not to mention IOS is just, eyuck
I can give apple a singular thing to their credit and that's their audio software implemenation, kinda
they're usually pretty good at including eq and all that sort of stuff, garage band, etc
wdym ios is bad
but then there's the apple earbuds themselves which are just overpriced garbage
ios is 10x better than android or whatever
i think the only thing i dont like about apple and its not really their fault is that they can release a product that is overprice and no one will question it
have you ever once wanted a third party weird app?
ever wanted to change some developer options without voiding 10 billion warranties?
yea a lot of ppl buy apple’s overpriced products
usb charging is possible with 12 i think
but you cant really blame apple for it, you gotta blame the consumers
headphone jack idrc that much
if ur gonna use headphones with a phone it’s probably gonna be wireless
that's true I can mostly blame the consumers like SSenti here for being [swearword]brains
bruh
have you ever wanted to plug your phone into your car for example
better than messing with bluetooth
no u 😎
^
I can't deny their cpus are powerful but it's like
theyve been ahead for aslong as i can remember
it doesn't matter if you put a 9900k in a laptop if the only thing people do with it is browse facebook
yknow what I'm saying
like it's again just electronic waste
true, a lotta apple users are not aware they own the fastest phone
most of them care about camera quality
which ios is lowkey stomping too
except
not camera wise, but post processing n stuff
Huawei has the best cameras at the moment
best night sensor at least
absolutely destroys everything else
you cant beat apples camera software
but they did
CoreAudio and CoreMidi on macs can be a deal breaker, if you use Adobe it’s typically more stable on mac, has a bit of the “it just works” feel. Downside is the price for the hardware is not good at all, games are non existent, no upgradability, repair if you do have an issue can be expensive
and apple records the best videos on phones
gotta get them 4k 60fps tik toks am I right
seriously I hate it
ios can record in raw if i remember correctly
Apple adding camera raw capability was a good move, I hate when I just see manufacturers add more and more cameras and make it feel like a huge thing
yea
wish theyd focus more on the software side of things
and perfect that
on paper, samsung should stomp apple but its even
the year is 2030: the iphone 15 has come out
it has 18 cameras and absolutely no physical ports or buttons
although i do think samsung's phones are more versatile when it comes to cameras
and it costs $2500, screw you give me your money

samsung is slowly following the trend as well
They do mostly work on software, adding raw photos is basically (or should) take out all the processing done on a photo which is much better for some people
for these reasons I will stick to the smaller guys
they are more in tune with what people ACTUALLY use phones for
samsung only allows you to shoot in raw in pro mode
but why huawei out of everything
they legit got the hammer
well when you were talking cameras I just mentioned them
Huawei lol
if it weren't for some certain things I would 100% be rockin a huawei
you cant go wrong with any flagship if you want good cameras
those certain things being that I'm on verizon
cdma cursed
switch over to cricket lol
hopefully after that I'll try something like mint mobile
they use at&t towers
Just buy a dslr
o ghosty
have you heard that apparently the reason why sony isnt stomping bc they dont wanna kill off dslrs
they wanna make sure their phones come no where close to it
at least they use to, dont know about now. Read the article a long while back
Idk anything about Sony phones but their mirrorless cameras are really nice
their new phone can be used as a display for their cameras
Oh that’s interesting
true
sony still does phones
ill say one thing about huawei and thats no one in the US has replacements for their screens around me and its trash
le chine
i almost got a huawei back in the day but went with xiaomi instead
huawei was lowkey doing good for a chinese company too, they had honor phones at bestbuy n stuff
xiaomi doesnt even have that yet
How about this. I've got $200. That needs to get me a set of smaller speakers without a sub and a set of headphones. Headphones don't need a mic, as I don't do any co-op stuff.
31$ gets you a ur40, 20$ gets you a meizu dongle, and the speaker can be ~150$
I'd skip speakers in the range below 500 USD
Because they are all crap compared to headphones.
I mean in terms of the raw technicals but sometimes people like having outloud stuff
doesnt room size/speaker placement affect speakers a lot
thoughts on the little dot mk3? https://littledotus.com/?product=mk-iii
i want a tube amp that sits between a preamp-less turntable and headphones
probably not very, they are pretty cheap
just dont throw them lol
im either gonna get porta pros or ur40s
at home
i think the ur40s would be better and probably more comfortable, but i couldnt say for sure as i have used neither 
Porta Pros are actually fairly comfy
I mean i'm not the type of person to wear porta pros or ur40s out in public
And you can upgrade that comfort for another 12 bucks by buying Yaxi Pads
Yeah thats what I was planning to do
I asked my Fiancee to buy me a pair of Porta Pros for Valentines day.
Because I bought her makeup that was animal crossing themed.
pc too
ye nachos they do a bit, speakers are great for some things but you should set em up somewhat decent
Anyone think it'd be fine to grab Gateron switches off of Glorious' site instead of Keychron's site?
get there where ever theyre cheapest
glorious is missing gat yellows which are one of the best gateron switch imo
Ah ok cool, thanks. I just thought it was better because they gave more for the price of 39 (+shipping) versus spending $50 to add up to 96 pieces.
Never listened to the gat yellows tbh I'll try to watch a vid rn on them.
which are you planning to get?
and id be careful with picking up switches base off of sound bc theres a lot more to it than the switches alone
pretty much every part of the keyboard has a factor to the overall sound
Linear switches are more smooth and silent by not having a bump element during actuation.
the gateron cap and durock option are really good linear switches for the price
Honestly didn't know that, thanks for the heads up.
never even heard of durock before tbh.
Only saw a vid of Durock and it seems interesting
WOOOOO someone bought me a vinyl rip
durock is really good, most switches are recolored durock switches
didn't know that. I'll look into them more then
bruh theres been like 20 gb for black keycaps with glow in the dark legend
started with kat cyberspace
kam superuser
gmk aurora
feel like there were like 2 other
but all same color scheme
get jwicks theyre .26 each 
can anyone recommend a full mechanical keyboard £100 or under
For what
What size do u prefer
Clicky, Tactile, or Linear?
Clicky is clicky
Tactile has a lil bump before u fully click it
Linear gives a smooth, soft, light feel
Rgb? Wireless?
Keychron c2 :P
Or K4 when it comes back in stock.
southpaw 1800>fullsized
i mean for that budget you would just be getting a membrane
i dont think there are any special keyboards in that budget
A keyboard that uses a membrane to activate a keystroke
yo
is the status cb-1 good
i hear from people that they are good
but they dont have too much bass
Are you looking for a recommendation or are you just asking to see if it's good
everyone recommends the aurvana live but i cant find any good earcups for that
im looking for a recommendation for over ear headphones i dont mind if they are wired that have good audio and good bass
i got some corsair hs60 which came with a faulty usb thing so i have to return them
and its sound was pretty ass
I mean check pins
basically everybody recommends CALs
but I don't know too much about audio
oh bruh ok
not sure i can ask
hes not here tho
true
apparently my kbd67 arrives today
ill send pic

ggs
Lol
are there rgb string lights I can replace my veins with

what’s the problem
also, is there a prosthetic that can also function as a mouse so I don’t have to replace it
@queen sigil it delivered
i hate you
ill open after class

do you think a doctor would replace my old heart with a mechanical one even without medical issue
please stop talking
these are serious questions
😦
RIP
@queen sigil

but its got a nice case

wait
are those extra screws and the gaskets?
what else is there
what is a good amp/dac for these? https://drop.com/buy/massdrop-sennheiser-hd6xx#overview
@queen sigil

no cracks
leyo do you have a box of random keyboard stuff yet
but kinda worried about the pcb, they say hold down the back of it when putting in switches
prob wanna go with tubes for that
soldered masterrace
if i can solder i would most def be buying more kits
its really not hard
and you can get a good solder iron/solder/solder pump for like $50
what is that
I wish I was one of those galaxy brain type people who knew wiring
so I could just like, make a bluetooth module for them 
My tri i3 should be here like, today? Tomorrow? They arrived at a place in LA and that's like 3 hours from me
gg
those looks so similar to some adams audio monitors
So these meizu dongles... They're only like $23??

yeah $20-22
Gotcha. Pleasant surprise.
makes me wish my phone would simply cost $22 more and have one inside
No kidding right
meizu and apple dongle great options as cheap dac amp to get away from the integrated
Hmm my motherboard only has 1 usb c port.
I think I really do need a dac for my phone but for the weirdest reasons
basically, discord calls on my phone get really wonky if there's a stream also
you sure thats not a software issue?
prob
sennhieser 6xx or beyerdynamic 1990 pro
Going by the guide pinned, DT880 and 6xx are what should be compared
What's wrong with dt 880s?
well idk those might be okay
I know 6xx mids aren't really impressive, and everything else just average, that's why you guys don't really like it
the fact that the beyers have a reputation for having too much treble, coming from audiophiles who appaerntly have crappy treble reception in their ears, makes me think that they'd actually destroy my ears
Like I'd put on a track and as soon as the drummer starts my ear drums would burst
says "relatively non-offensive sound signature" so I assume shouldn't be that bad
but 1990 pro says "Slight upgrade to the DT880 in resolution but treble is much sharper and grainier"
dt880s have a lot of treble but not too much unless you got ears like kuzu
and 1990s and 6xx is kinda a weird pick
300$ dif or about
the 1990s are $600!!??
you could get some better planars for that much, definitely
i enjoy the 6xx
agree I think they're the best
Someone legit told me "bro you have to let them burn in"
why did you get 6xx if you like lots of bass
Hello, I am new to PC’s. I have an Xbox series X rn and going to be switching to PC but playing on controller. Does anyone have good suggestions on headsets/mix amps that would be compatible with the PC and controller?
Do you need to plug it into controller for distance
Sorry don’t want to sound like an idiot, but do you mean distance between controller and PC?
on pc, you dont need to plug the headset in the controller anymore
this is for pc right or for both
Well now I've no clue, idk what a mix amp is
Pc but using Xbox controller
Amp is to control other sound backgrounds, like chat, game play, music, etc
I believe
May be wrong
get a dedicated mic and headphones
whats ur budget
You do this digitally
You don't need a separate device for that
Ohhhh
Desktop amp is for making it nice and loud
If he's not an audiophile we need not recommend him expensive stuff
not really
anything with gaming in it except monitors and mice are trash
there is a few exceptions with headsets but barely like 3
UR40 to start off is also an option until you figure out if you want to spend more for audiophile things
They need a mic tho
Is there a mod mic cheaper than ur40 actually
Other than boom pro which requires line in
ur40 is just so nice and cheap lol
Mod mic is $10 more than ur40 itself
Yeah it would be strictly for gaming
bestbuy has some good stuff i can check what they got
Plz do
BB lacking in headsets but he can def find a mic there
theres a coolermaster mh751 which is a takstar pro 82 clone
There are cheaper detachable mics but they require line in
The reason I picked those two is because those are the ones I’ve heard of that are good
But i want more bass so would the 1990s be better?
id look into headphones a bit more before deciding
if you can spend 1990s money, get e-mu teaks
If you are gonna drop that much, look into avantone and Hifiman Sundara @torn summit
No I was also looking at the schiit hel
id get a stack instead
Could you link
and 6xx is not the best in the bass department
Yeah that’s the reason I was unsure about those
So this is at BB?
yea, but there is better options
thats jus one option
@torn summit https://www.emu.com/order.html
thats end game for bassheads
modi/magni stack is how you make fortnut appear
Emu teaks eh...
So which ones would you guys suggest for gaming? If I ever want to go pure audio I’ll upgrade
I'd try them for funsies
fostex would be endgame but price
Which one would you suggest
the thing is, there is not headset for gaming
gaming headsets have trash sound sigs
and 7.1 surround sound is 9/10 times a gimmick
Hmm so what do u think?
PC37x/PC38x :P
pc37x/38x is an easy recommendation
nothing bad to say about them
Actually, you think they should get a dac/amp with pc37x/pc38x?
LANCE
you can pair up something budget like a e10k
STOP
