# plucky forum have u used Fulla before and how is it good for daily use/gaming/music/movie?

I have unfortunately not had the opportunity to use a Fulla as my budget for audiophile is extremely limited due to other interests/necessities. However, I do know a couple people who have used it. The DAC is great for gaming and functions very nicely for other activities such as music listening. If you don’t like the sound you could always EQ the headphones, which is a complicated but rewarding process.

rigid valve
#

EQing is a process wherein you change the frequency output of sounds, you could add more bass or highs for example.

plucky forum
#

I see.

daring zenith
#

Currently using fulla and a pc37x

plucky forum
#

Since that is what I currently use.

daring zenith
#

uh, fulla is a dac/amp, and arctis 5 is a headset..?

#

And I don't have an arctis 5

#

I own PC37X, and I've basically retired them since getting my significantly cheaper Koss UR40.

#

Although those are now being used by my Fiancee and I now have HE-X4's

Drop site is buggin right now

rigid valve

timber ridge

rigid valve
#

if you have $400 you should learn to fricking wait

tru

timber ridge
#

his best bet is wait for extras

#

if he wants quick turnaround

rigid valve
#

yeah

thick tartan
#

even if u manage to get a d65 ir still waiting 3 weeks tops for everything to get to u

#

especially with covid too

rigid valve

probably with hs and a carbon plate

im considering getting a nice set of like

#

chukkas

#

to daily

timber ridge
#

ooo

#

they look fancy

steep pelican
#

Unlike a lot of people I care only a little on looks and almost entirely on function

#

I just go to like famous footwear and get an average pair of shoes that fit well, usually in grey because other colors get dirty faster

rigid valve
#

so

#

have you ever considered getting quality durable shoes then

steep pelican
#

I do

#

I don’t choose bad shoes

rigid valve
steep pelican
#

My shoes last me until I grow out

rigid valve
#

ok thats fair

#

not worth investing a ton if they wont fit in a year

steep pelican
#

My feet are kind of still growing tho these upcoming shoes may be my final size

rigid valve
#

im already like 10.5 or 11 size

#

scary

steep pelican
#

I’m like 11-11.5

#

My dad is 12.5-13

#

So idk if I’ll get to 12 or not

#

My 60 dollar pair of nikes has lasted me like 18 months

#

I’m probably going to get new shoes soon

queen sigil
#

id still rather get a colurful kit

im taking it over modern dolch

frail sedge
#

How good is the Astro A10 compared to something like a HyperX Cloud II

#

I know Astro makes some really good headphones

rigid valve
#

I legitimately do not believe that they do

neon quartzBOT
#
EonServo#7007 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

frail sedge
#

siht I just realized it doesn't have virtual surround sound which is a huge thing I'm looking for

rigid valve
#

Just get Dolby atmos or something similar

#

99% of the time “surround sound” in headphones is a scam and a marketing scum

frail sedge
#

Well here are the things I'm looking for:
Below $70
Large and comfortable earcuffs
Something that doesn't fcking stop working out of one ear in like 3 months
7.1 surround sound

rigid valve
#

Headset or headphones

frail sedge
#

Either

rigid valve
#

And for the love of god abandon the surround sound
It’s an absolute gimmick

frail sedge
#

I probably won't be using the mic much as I already have a usb mic

frail sedge
rigid valve
#

I’ve used headphones with surround sound vs headphones without and IEMs

#

The difference is not the surround sound, it’s the drivers and tuning

frail sedge
#

I had a good pair of headphones that had VSS but it stopped working out of one ear, but when I still used it, I was able to pin point enemies much easier especially in games like R6 as that game's sound fcking sucks, and idk everything just felt, roomy, and idrk how to explain it

rigid valve
#

That’s called soundstage

frail sedge
rigid valve
#

No

frail sedge
#

Which one were you talking about

rigid valve
#

I thought Atmos was a software you could also download but may be wrong

glacial plume
#

ayo what r good mods for g pro x

rigid valve
#

Regardless, you are going to be looking for headphones with a good soundstage.
Koss U40s with replacement earpads would be a good idea

rigid valve
glacial plume
#

Mmk

rigid valve
#

If anything you could try soldering in some nice Kailh Gm switches

#

But that’s extremely difficult

snow briar
#

I’ve had no issues so far with my g pro x switches btw

frail sedge
#

Is the Cloud II better than Cloud Core?

rigid valve
#

Yes

frail sedge
#

Is it the best of the cloud lineup in that price range?

rigid valve
#

I would say yes

#

Knowing people who have owned both 2s and Alphas

wanton burrow
# solar nebula thats actually in stock rn

Kbd67lite. Instock (can pre-order on some vendors rn like on candykeys) and is good. Can't vouch on best but it's something worth to get if you want something good yet cheap.

#

If u want more expensive i doubt there's good instock ones

#

Perhaps alexa or mode? KnucklesThinking

#

Oh and corgi65 also

#

A top mounted 65, finally

Available in Microsoft store

dreamy goblet
#

any recommandatinos on budget pbt keycaps for the k6?

rigid valve
#

Under 30 usd it doesn’t really matter as everything is the same
30 USD price range get YMDK
50 USD look into Mistel PBT or Drop Artifact Bloom

solar nebula
#

should i get the tofu65?

dreamy goblet
dreamy goblet
solar nebula
#

ymdk is cheaper and lower quality but still good

solar nebula
#

i just need something that isnt razer blackwidow with razer greens

dreamy goblet
#

it's way too expensive for someone like me who isn't serious

rigid valve
dreamy goblet
rigid valve
#

Also color matching and color quality

#

Overall I believe that the difference between 30-50 is large and the difference of 50-150 is large and that it is worth investing in a good set of keycaps that will last you a couple years

dreamy goblet
#

and i heard that there are some issues with south facing switches and cherry profile keycaps?

rigid valve
#

North facing issues

#

Which makes drop unusable iirc

dreamy goblet
#

oh yea mb

rigid valve
#

But not mistel

#

Oh also Taihao keycaps are worth looking into

dreamy goblet
#

mhm, the k6 is only 100 so i prob wont get something that is over 50 but i might conisder something that is somewhere around 40 - 50

rigid valve
#

It might look kinda sketchy with the broken English on the website but Taihao is a reputable keycap brand

dreamy goblet
#

ah ok

#

do these companies ship to canada?

rigid valve
#

Mistel I think is on Amazon Canada

#

Taihao ships from China so you can probably organize something

dreamy goblet
#

ok

#

ty for the help

rigid valve
#

Anytime

dreamy goblet
#
#

or this

rigid valve
#

I’m not too familiar with either of those brands

#

The first one is a clone of the popular set Coral Sea

dreamy goblet
#

ah so i shoudlnt' go with them?

#

and they are both cherry profile so they woudlnt work with the k6?

If you don’t like them get jap omron, kailh, ttc

It's wired tho, just to add

which style of keycaps are best?

non cherry since i have north facing rgbs

#

im thinking of going with oem since it's the same as my old keyboard

No such thing as best

Most people prefer Cherry, OEM, or SA

dreamy goblet
#

well yea but what are the benifts of each?

rigid valve

Some enjoy DSA/ASA/XDA/ZDA

rigid valve
dreamy goblet
#

mhm

rigid valve

The opposite for XDA/ZDA

#

Apart from that it’s really just what you enjoy the feel of

dreamy goblet

but it prob wont pair well with the k6 since the case is already so tall

much cheaper and easier to clean ur keyboard than compressed air

So is that exactly what it sounds like? Mouse inputs twice per click?

#

If so that'd be basically cheating for minecraft lmao

#

I already get like 12cps

#

That'd be broken lmao

#

Yeah for anything other than games like mc it'd be annoying as hell lol

#

F

#

I gotta re-download cw but Jesus multi-player is word i can't say

#

When I played it it didn't happen much

#

I think one time

#

But I quit just before the ppsh was added

#

Without steam workshop maps it's boring af

#

And thermal lmgs? Really?

#

Who thought that was a good idea

#

They can't balance any guns properly

#

And what about that tiny map they added, Miami strike?

#

Or whatever that variant of it is

#

So bad. Just so much stuff they messed up

#

I mostly played tdm and s&d

#

Now I mostly play minecraft, warzone (rebirth) and valorant

#

I dont even care about the bugs

#

It's just such a poorly balance game

#

It was well designed originally

#

Not to mention the player base is awful

#

Full teams of corner campers with thermal lmgs

#

Just so many broken guns

#

Impossible to have fun

#

My friend that was toxic af (who I finally cut out) convinced me to get it

#

Funnily enough that game is the reason why I bought my pc

#

So I could actually play it

#

Gt 1030 in my old pc lol

#

Actually even funnier that game is the reason I know anything about pcs

#

Looking for a pc was the reason I got into them

#

I couldn't even run ray tracing on it at max graphics on fireball

#

Thanks autocorrect

#

Firebase

#

On 1080p

thick tartan
#

the only thing i want to ray trace is minecraft and ultra modded skyrim

shadow bane
#

I normally don't care about rt

#

But it just shows how poorly they made the game

#

I cant run rtx in warzone either

#

Again I don't care much for it, but its just so poorly optimized

thick tartan
#

cod is a very poorly optimized game

shadow bane
#

Warzome is arguably the worst optimized game current day

thick tartan
#

i havent been a fan of the series since black ops 3

#

my peak was bo2

shadow bane
#

Bo3 zombies was the best bc of steam workshop maps

thick tartan

ik

#

But Jesus the multi-player

thick tartan
#

i didnt mine the multiplayer

shadow bane
#

The multi-player was so bad

thick tartan
#

i think ppl complaned too much cause of how crap they were

shadow bane
#

My friend also convinced me to get bo4

shadow bane
shadow bane
thick tartan
#

compared to bo4 and and advanced warefare yikes

shadow bane
#

Zombies and multi-player

#

Awful

thick tartan
#

bo3 multiplayer was fine

shadow bane
#

Bo3 was my first cod back in 2019

thick tartan
#

the double jump was lbasically drop shotting in tht era

shadow bane
#

So tbf the only people still playing were sweats, and I sucked

#

My parents wouldn't let me touch cod until then, for whatever reason

#

I've been enjoying valorant though

#

No matter how infuriating it is sometimes lmao

thick tartan
#

valorant is meh

shadow bane
#

Surprisingly, I've never broken anything because of any game

#

If I get mad it's either my leg or my desk

thick tartan
#

fps have been at an all time low imo

shadow bane
#

Yeah fair

#

I've only just gotten into them though

#

So it's basically all new to me

#

Oh god I played fortnite since season 1

#

Stopped after 8 and started started season 2 for like 2 seasons

It was so fun at the start

But the building just got too annoying

Oh god they are?

I'm just now becoming a proper weeb

@steep pelican @dire tartan can you help me out with headphones?

steep pelican
rigid valve
#

Get some decent cans and a dac/amp

halcyon zealot
#

@steep pelican @rigid valve i mean i might sound dumb but i dont really like how the K371 looks, im looking for headphones that have both aesthetic and audio ofcourse

rigid valve
#

Ok

#

Do u have a picture for reference then

queen sigil
#

id assume just "gamery" aesthetic

halcyon zealot
#

what do you mean? @rigid valve

halcyon zealot
#

i dont want anything crazy

rigid valve
#

Do you have a picture that is the headphone aesthetic you’re after

halcyon zealot
#

i want like some clean black headphones

rigid valve
#

K371s are black…

halcyon zealot
#

and i would like them to be studio headphones

halcyon zealot
rigid valve
#

K371s can be used in studio

#

so then a reference picture would be nice

#

So I know like

steep pelican
rigid valve
#

What I’m even looking for

#

“Clean look” means nothing at all

#

K371s are clean af

#

No fancy frills

steep pelican
#

How clean is clean lol?

halcyon zealot
#

guys i know this sounded dumb, but i just want help thats all

#

ok so i want something that looks like the Beyerdynamic or Audio Technica

#

i think those look clean

#

atleast in my opinion

queen sigil
#

send a picture lol

#

those arent specific headphones

#

just of headphones you say look clean

halcyon zealot
#

ok 1 second

#

i personally think these look great

#

but i dont know if they sound good

rigid valve
#

The top two, 70x and 1990s, are very very good

#

But you sorta need some sort of amp

halcyon zealot
#

but at the same time i want something durable, because i had the DT 990 Pro and the left ear just stopped working, and i had the Audio Technica ATH-M50X and they just broke

#

so i want something strong and durable

#

plus i was treating them normally, like i didnt do anything to them

halcyon zealot
#

oh yeah and i forgot, i also want something that is very comfortable and that would have me wearing it for hours without being uncomfortable

rigid valve
steep pelican

1990s are super popular in the music world

halcyon zealot
#

ok but if i was planning on going on something less cheaper, because the 1990s are 600 dollars, should i go for the M70X? @rigid valve

steep pelican
#

I don’t know if I would buy any M_0X headphones cause I don’t like how they fit

rigid valve
halcyon zealot
#

i have the Focusrite Solo

rigid valve
#

Oh then

#

Yeah you can use that

halcyon zealot
#

do you think that if i got the 1990's it could be so durable that it would be with me for years? @rigid valve

rigid valve
#

If you treat them carefully and either lay them flat with the ear cups flat or get a headphone stand

#

Yes I believe they could

halcyon zealot
#

ok ill add them to the list, ill do a list of all the Headphones i like then ill choose which one i want @rigid valve do you by any chance know of good Sennheiser or Shure headphones?

rigid valve
#

Shure headphones in general are not spectacular

#

And for sennheiser…

#

HD560, HD6XX

halcyon zealot
prime notch
#

What are some good orings for gateron browns hotswap and keychron standerd caps i want 40a hardness and around 1.5 mm

halcyon zealot
#

@rigid valve are those the only 2 good headphones?

#

from sennheiser

rigid valve
#

There are probably others but I can’t think of them right now

rigid valve
halcyon zealot
#

ok so what i found on the Sennheiser were, HD560S, HD660S, HD600, HD650 @rigid valve

rigid valve
#

Also HD6XX

#

From drop

halcyon zealot

I mean I come here so I have people that care when I give them tech advice

should i buy on candykeys?

steep pelican

Buy what

wanton burrow
#

if it ships to u on a nice price, yes

#

if in terms of preordering 67lite, sure they ship globally iirc

#

PracticeTKL is f13 tkl, and StackedTKL meant to be an upgrade path for practice boards, has WKL Option

#

aight

#

imma wait for the time where shipping fees goes a lil les

#

nop

#

unless someone manages to do so

steep pelican
#

So if I wanted a frog I couldn’t just buy a tkl pcb from somewhere else

wanton burrow
#

unless someone said x pcb manages to fit then mayhaps

steep pelican
#

Frog isn’t selling with pcbs this month so if I land one I want to be able to get a pcb

wanton burrow
#

perhaps u could ask which aftermarket pcb would/should work on frog

but anyways i might get practicetkl since it has the layout ingridients (except stepped caps support) i want

[Frog TKL compatible PCB list to my knowledge]
Most of the TKL PCBs are compatible if the USB port is in between F12/F13 and Print Screen key and on the top-side of the PCB.
And the USB connector should be USB C type. USB mini B type compatibility is not guaranteed and not recommended for Frog TKL.

Frog TKL with F12 WK top - Xelus Pachi, Xelus Pachi RGB , Hiney H87C , Linworks Fave87 , C3(Equalz) LDN RGB80% B87 , TX Suo TKL L , Snow_02D Snow-Pro TKL-C2 , Mechlovin' Infinity 87.5 (TBA)

You can get Durock plate-mounts

do you already have drop alt?

Don’t get a drop keyboard

Bit hypocritical of me to say it but don’t get a drop keyboard

ok idk what i did wrong but i think my stabs make my switches clicky now

Lol

frail sedge
#

Is HyperX Cloud II the best headphone/headset for the price

wanton burrow
wanton burrow
#

how would it make it worse?

#

if u mod stabs, one of the main things to do is to straighten wires

#

imbalanced wires hits the stab stem's instert/s hen being pressed, making it sound like a tick

thick tartan
#

i hope ur not using the stock stabs on tht board

timber ridge
#

if headphones are an option then no

#

even then you could make an argument for koss gmr being better or a mod mic or a pair of cheaper cans

sly warren
#

Hell, that's actually CHEAPER than HyperX Cloud 2's

#

And it'll sound significantly better.

rigid valve
#

wait UR40s are $30???

#

holy crap

#

i thought they were like 50

sly warren
#

The best cheap gaming experience is the Koss UR40 + ModMic + Apple Dongle

#

If you need cheaper than that, then get KSC75X + Apple Dongle

shadow bane
#

So idk if this is really peripherals but any decent Bluetooth headphones for around 50$? Doesn't have to be high end, just durable and for listening to music

rigid valve
#

all you gotta do is mod the Ur40s to take a detachable mic

sly warren
#

Jump up to the 80 dollar price bracket and you have Moondrop Sparks

sly warren

Then just save up more money ya nerd

shadow bane

I have the money

sly warren
#

There's basically nothing for Wireless that lives at the 50 dollar bracket.

shadow bane
#

I'm just clumsy as hell

sly warren
#

It's all cheap junk that wouldn't sound good even to a normal person

#

I broke my last pair of headphones after 3 months lol

#

Tbf they cost 25$

sly warren
#

Well, that's why...

steep pelican
sly warren
#

You mean the Lightning connector?

steep pelican
#

Yes

#

Lightning bolt connector same thing

sly warren
#

No...

shadow bane
#

My dad gave me his old pair that was super high end he got from his friend who beta tests products, finally broke after 6 years

sly warren
#

Lightning =/= Thunderbolt

shadow bane
#

The powe switch thing disconnected from the actual thing that turns it on

sly warren
#

Thunderbolt has an actual lightning bolt on the connector.

steep pelican
#

I didn’t say thunderbolt tho

sly warren
#

Apple Lightning has no markings on it.

steep pelican
#

K whatever

shadow bane
#

I have to stick a tiny screw driver in it if I want to turn it on lmao

sly warren
#

Apple used to bundle a Lightning to 3.5mm dongle with iPhones (same internals as the USB-C one made later for iPads) and it's literally the best one.

rigid valve
#

if you want wireless for $50

#

you're gonna have to settle for really really bad audio

shadow bane
#

Oof

#

Was getting them because I got a job working for a contractor, and I can't really use wired

steep pelican
shadow bane
#

Maybe I'll get a pair of Bluetooth earbuds, but they'll still be just as bad

sly warren
#

Not even with the wire through the shirt?

shadow bane
#

Idk I manage to trip over air so

#

Maybe

sly warren
#

Then why are you in contracting work?

shadow bane
#

Lmao

#

It's just a summer job

sly warren
#

I'd be worried you'd hammer your thumb or something.

shadow bane
#

I turn 16 inSeptember, so i cant get a proper job yet

sly warren
#

Maybe working at like, a library or something would be more your cup of tea.

shadow bane
#

I managed to burn myself on a screw

#

Lmao

sly warren
#

Yeah... I think you should probably look at working at a less... dangerous job...

shadow bane
#

Lmfao

#

In reality I've been doing pretty well, other than the screw thing

#

Haven't broken any fingers so I'll consider that good

west hornet
#

Yup lightning is original dongle

#

Thunderbolt, usb c tomato potato dont really make a difference except on some higher end interfaces

frail sedge
frail sedge
#

Also they look like they’re gonna fall apart in like 2 days

sly warren
#

I've had mine for 8 months.

#

And My Fiancee, who has a general disrespect for items, has been using them for 3 months.

frail sedge
#

Headphones hate me though Sadge

west hornet
#

Be nice to headphone chan

frail sedge
#

Knowing my luck, I’ll be lucky to have something lost for more than 3 months kekw

#

One of the headphone will probably either start dangling or stop working out of 1 ear

rigid valve
#

or you could just

#

handle them carefully

steep pelican
#

Like wear them then put them on a headphone stand

daring zenith
#

Had my UR40 for about 4 months, I'd say it's pretty durable

#

Not sure if anyone knows a lot about keyboards but does anyone know some good quiet 60% keyboards also?

rigid valve
#

what's your budget

calm cobalt
#

wanna keep it under 150

rigid valve
#

150

#

usd?

calm cobalt
#

Correct but if it has to be more

#

am willing to pay more

rigid valve
#

i would get a

#

hotswap keyboard and swap for silents

calm cobalt
#

is that easy?

thick tartan
#

yes

calm cobalt
#

I know nothing about keyboards

calm cobalt
rigid valve
#

if you can wait get a keychron k12 when it drops

#

and then like

#

bobagums or boba u4

thick tartan
calm cobalt
#

linear i believe cause i like it quiet

rigid valve
#

you can get quiet tactiles too

#

just no clicky

calm cobalt
#

for the keychron k12 what switch do i choose?

thick tartan
#

gat yellows or reds

calm cobalt
#

for switches type?

rigid valve
#

and then you can swap if they're too loud

#

to bobagums or something similar

#

silent alpacas

calm cobalt
#

theirs no bobgums on the website

rigid valve
#

yeah those arent from keychron

thick tartan
#

^

rigid valve
#

anyways

#

start with a K12

calm cobalt
#

so just choose Keychron Mechanical (Hot-swappable)?

rigid valve
#

or gateron mechanical

#

but DO NOT choose optical

calm cobalt
#

mk

#

oh

thick tartan
#

can do these

#

or these switches

calm cobalt
#

do i just popped these in like legos?

rigid valve
#

basically

#

yeah sorta

thick tartan
#

yep

rigid valve
#

get a switch puller

calm cobalt
#

nice.

rigid valve
#

pull out the keychron/gats

thick tartan
#

if u want to get spicy u can lube and film ur switches but if u dont care about any of tht u can just ignore it

calm cobalt

am not that smart

Do you need a built-in mic or can you work with a separate discrete mic

#

Ok

feral briar
#

i tried to fit one in but it leaves me no space to work with

Gotcha

Well the headset recommendation dump list generally looks like:

#

Sub 100USD : HyperX Cloud II, Cooler Master MH752, Koss GMR Air
120 USD - Drop Pc37x from DROP.com
200 USD - Drop Pc38x from DROP.com

200 USD - get a boom arm or something and some good headphones with a discrete mic

Most of them suck

I do know a site for nice earbud reviews

But, I forgot about it

that's what you're thinking of 😉

floral lake
#

Ah, just found one

#

It's audiobudget

#

Also I suppose I'll check that one out

rigid valve
#

i consider crinacle one of the very review consistently reliable audio reviewers out there

#

Z reviews too but he has this poster of an anime girl in a bikini and it just really kills the entire channel

floral lake
#

this gud

sly warren
#

Not really

floral lake
#

the reviews are quite thorough at the least

#

better than rtings imo

rigid valve
#

i mean for a website that covers low budget IEMs it's at least informative

floral lake
#

yeh

sly warren
#

You can replace ALL of those IEMs with KSC75

rigid valve
#

ehh

#

the question you have to ask

floral lake
#

yeah but that's uh, not that cheap for me and people who's interested in budget stuff

rigid valve
#

ksc75 are $20

#

:p

floral lake
#

they aren't in my country

#

somehow

latent hull
#

Also not all people are into on ears

rigid valve
#

yeah

#

and KSC75 have like

#

literaly no sub bass

#

at all

#

none

#

tho i got my qkz ck5 for 2 bucks here

rigid valve
#

dayum

it's amazing value

and so cheap i can not worry about killing em

#

tho i take good care of it even tho it's cheap lmao

#

to my non audiophile ears, they sound so clear, bass doesn't sound muddy

#

mids a bit missing? i think

#

but what can i ask for 2

steep pelican
#

What iems exist for someone that is budget minded

rigid valve
#

how low budget is the budget

floral lake

my choice is mainly kz, cca and qkz

for rock bottom to low budget

And I’m about to drop like 390 on a frog

uhhhhhhhhhhh

#

Tin T2?

i would surely get on ears if i could afford

So my keychron k4 just came

Is there any way to make it not as sharp?

Sharp..?

Not exactly sharp

Sharper than I'd like it to be

Like I'd prefer it to be rounded

daring zenith
#

Uhm

thick tartan
#

idk wat u mean by sharp lol

steep pelican
daring zenith
#

If it's just a defect, you could just swap on one of the Mac keycaps it comes with

#

Those should all just be 1.25u

thick tartan
#

or buy a new set of keycaps

#

which i would atleast

steep pelican
#

K4 is low profile isn’t it?

daring zenith
#

K4 is thicc boi

steep pelican

I can’t remember all the different keychron boards

shadow bane
#

One sec

#

Where as my old one

steep pelican
#

I mean it looks like a keycap

shadow bane
#

Yeah im just used to it being rounded

steep pelican
#

They both look fairly rounded

daring zenith
#

Oh you can probably get used to that

steep pelican
#

Just do it towards the center of the keycap

shadow bane
#

I use below my pinky for some games

#

So I can use my pinky for tab and escape and such

#

Like sprinting in mc

daring zenith
#

Use your ring finger for that lol

thick tartan
#

i use my pinky to hit cntrl i see wat u mean

shadow bane
#

Yeah idk I'll just have to change my hand stance ig?

thick tartan
#

but its just cause ur so used to ur old board

shadow bane
#

Whatever you'd call it

shadow bane
#

Like

thick tartan
#

just give it a couple of hours and youll get used to it

rigid valve
#

Keychron uses OEM profile which is ridiculously common
there aint much you can do if you ever decide to get into keyboards, however you could try and swap keycaps for this board too

shadow bane
#

Around there

#

That was bigger than I thought

steep pelican
#

That is a weird way to press down control

daring zenith
#

Might just have to use the board for a few days and adapt to it

shadow bane
#

Disc camera is so much smaller than the picture

shadow bane
#

Just how I learned to use mechanical ig? Idk

#

Just frees up my pinky to do other things

steep pelican
#

I mean I type weird so no judgement

shadow bane
#

If im typing I use my pink for ctrl

daring zenith
#

Most people type a bit differently

thick tartan
shadow bane
#

It's just certain games

#

Oh also I'm an idiot

#

I didn't know it was Bluetooth, i thought it had a receiver

#

So now I'm using it wired till I get a Bluetooth adapter

thick tartan
#

think of a brand new keyboard as a controller its never gonna feel the same as ur old one u were using cause of how wore down it is and how much u used it just gotta wait and and adjust to it

daring zenith

You could use it BT on your phone if you want >:D

If your Mobo has wifi, it has bt

I was looking at the DT 990 Pro but I don't know how they compare to other cans

daring zenith
#

well

First of all get yourself a dac

#

Second of all,
What situation will you be using these cans in (desk, with family around, in subway, etc)
What sound profile do you want (more bass, miss, highs)

iirc dt990 trebble can hurt ears

latent hull

Desk, probably more mids than anything else

If I need to the highest I will go is 250 max

And a Fulla or something

maybe hs400 or something then

sundaras would be nice if they were in budget

Are the DT 990 Pro that bad because to me they look very comfortable and also would they be that bad with like a meizu dongle or should I just go for the K371 and meizu dongle?

timber ridge
#

yes they are lol

#

k371 is good but no where near balance

#

it has some oomph too it

latent hull
#

are the dt 880 better than the dt 990?

timber ridge
#

yup

daring zenith
#

both are pretty heavy on the treble afaik

timber ridge

beyer in general

but its not as bad as the dt990s
