I don’t know if I was going crazy but I genuinely don’t see the things that Audiophiles complain about certain headphones when I try them
hoary zodiac
Audiophiles complain about everything
There is a point between objectivity and subjectivity
frigid stag
True 
hoary zodiac
Audiophiles are all over the place
frigid stag
I mean the numbers are there with them but if you can’t notice it from listening to it then what’s the goal
pliant berry
I am usually pretty forgiving, but when my immersion is broken I get upset
hoary zodiac
I'm here rocking my funny headphones
frigid stag
Half of them love iems, the rest hate them
hoary zodiac
Koss rules
frigid stag
And most of them don’t like closed back
pliant berry
koss is really nice for budget
hoary zodiac
They don't make headphones like they used to anymore
pliant berry
closed backs are very claustrophobic, get hot really quickly and often lack soundstage. With that said I have heard a few closed backs that are quite pleasant
hoary zodiac
Yeah
The non closed back nature of the Koss makes it so much better
It's remarkable how good these sound
For how simple and cheap they are
frigid stag
My experience with closed back is a few headsets I had
They weren’t the usual gaming headsets, they actually sounded good compared to the regular ones
hoary zodiac
My Moondrops sound ok
But compared to the Koss
Ehh
But that's comparing closed back to non closed backd
Unfair comparison
I'm so used to the sound of the Koss
That everything else sounds flat
Maybe I should get open backs for my next headphones
I do still need closed backs for commute
pliant berry
that's like me with my meze's
fresh timber
I like my cheap Bluetooth’s
frigid stag
I wanted to get some 770s or 990s but made me reconsider reading how much audiophiles don’t like them
frigid stag
Apparently one is too “high treble” the other one is too bright or something
hoary zodiac
Yeah but like
frigid stag
Well I’ve never tried them so i don’t really know
hoary zodiac
Your brain processes audio differently
So the best way to see if you like it is to just try it out
frigid stag
Probably true
pliant berry
They are more of an aquired taste. they also vary depending which impedence model you get. some microcenters even have them on display to try if you like
hoary zodiac
Yeah there's a lot of subjectivity in audio
frigid stag
I don’t have any microcenters anywhere near but I could probably find some audio store that has them
pliant berry
yeah places like guitar center or even some tech stores hold them
frigid stag
I mean I either missed them in the big box stores or they don’t have them cuz they only had like either gaming headsets or those Sony/ jbl ones
The smaller audio stores definitely should have them
pliant berry
yeah those are more generic mainstream headphones
frigid stag
Ye that’s the right phrase for them
hoary zodiac
Sennies are ok
frigid stag
Ye probably
frigid stag
They’re apparently at least better than airpods max
hoary zodiac
Mainstream is often mediocre
pliant berry
i prefer airpods pro over xm4/xm5
hoary zodiac
But for the price
Eh
Too much to pay imo
Compared to getting a good pair of closed backs and a dac
frigid stag
Ye stuff like Sony, beats, jbl they’re usually the mainstream stuff that people buy
frigid stag
I heard some hd6x they were pretty nice
hoary zodiac
The thing stopping me from buying them is the price
frigid stag
Well indirectly, I had a friend record music from his ones and send it
frigid stag
Do you need an amp for them
hoary zodiac
Such is life
frigid stag
Or is it just for extra volume
hoary zodiac
For the 600 yes
pliant berry
6xx are nice starters. pretty scalable as well. I still have a pair in a box somewhere
hoary zodiac
There may be variants
frigid stag
What happens if you use them without
pliant berry
What happens if you use them without

You're gonna feel like you're missing something
You're not gonna get the full HD600 experience

Theres at least 1 thing audiophiles agree on, they all hate that one reviewer with like 5k subs

frigid stag

hoary zodiac
The hell is that boom mic
Not boom mic
What do you call those stick microphones again
pliant berry
looks like an sdc, but nothing that I recognize
frigid stag
It’s a rode stand I think
hoary zodiac
Probably just uses the same mic from his camera setup or something
pliant berry
this is sdc mic
hoary zodiac
Lav mics are better for vlogging and such
frigid stag
Looks like the same arm
hoary zodiac
They're directional in how they pick up audio
So you have to point them where the audio source is
Someone fact check me
I'm probably getting this wrong
frigid stag
Idk it makes sense to me
pliant berry
many lavs and sdc mics are either cardioid or omnidirectional. some even have interchangeable capsules. can be nice for instrument recording
hoary zodiac
I see
I have a cheap lav mic for my camera
Found out that my decade old D7000 is not great for low light recording
frigid stag
I found a decent mic but I’m probably going to go with a cheaper one it’s too expensive
Idk if i can spend 200 on a single mic when I can get one for like 30 bucks
pliant berry
lav I think is the only one I don't have xD. I have some shotguns, sdc's, dynamic, maybe one large diaphragm
frigid stag
It’s better obviously but like I don’t think I need it
hoary zodiac
Not like you're recording audio for a living
frigid stag
Ye
frigid stag
The 30$ one still needs an interface so it’ll end up costing more
pliant berry
audio is an unhealthy addiction for me at times 💀
hoary zodiac
being broke is my solution

Do they really need that much power
hoary zodiac
performance/watt i mean

Oh

Ye that’s kind of a lot for the performance they have
hoary zodiac
yeah it's a fun retro platform
frigid stag
Are they even usable for gaming
silver sparrow
yeah
frigid stag
Or even regular usage
silver sparrow
they are equiv to like 2nd gen intel
hoary zodiac
dual core i3*
somber skiff
fsb overclocking is fun
hoary zodiac
this is why you don't get dual cores
they're absolutely trash in 2025
unless you just need the single thread perf
silver sparrow
just gont get any of the core 2 duo, cause those would be absolute trash
frigid stag
I have one on my macbook
silver sparrow
core 2 quad is usable
frigid stag
Surprisingly the ram is the limiting thing on it instead of the cpu
crimson scroll
frigid stag
8gb ram is not it
hoary zodiac
why is there brainrot in my tech server
silver sparrow
they are so cheap tho, and like if you could pick one up for free in the ewaste center, and buy a core 2 quad for like 20-40$ you have a decent cpu super entry level settup. but like at that point id say just spend the time to find a socket type that is above 3rd gen intel

xeons power hungry though

but the performance/$ is very meh on kaby lake

I’d take a 5ghz 7700k over 12100f stock
hoary zodiac
yes but people sell 7700ks for a stupid price
frigid stag
Ye same with 9th gen i9
silver sparrow
but perf/$ is mid
even when free 
frigid stag
I mean 3950x’s and 3900xt’s probably cost a lot too still
pliant berry
maybe I should sell my 9900k
pliant berry
for same price I bought it 
hoary zodiac
that's why I usually set the bar at coffee lake
silver sparrow
intel is powerhungry in general
frigid stag
They’re more worth it in whole pcs for some reason separately they sell for a lot
hoary zodiac
actually
for whole pcs
I can get an i5-8500 for cheaper
coffee lake 6c/6t is dirt cheap
if you look in the right places
silver sparrow
but i mean what else do you expect when they stagnate for years and years, then get completely obliterated by AMD
frigid stag
intel is powerhungry in general
Mines like 60w usually

coffee lake is a contributing factor to why I'm not a fan of kaby

but i mean what else do you expect when they stagnate for years and years, then ...
They didn’t have to do anything cuz ryzen was competing with a 2014 architecture for the longest time
hoary zodiac
why spend the money on a 7700 when I can get a coffee lake for cheaper
frigid stag
Just run skylake again and it “just works”
silver sparrow
like i hate all generations from 5th to 10th, cause they are like all the exact same
hoary zodiac
it'd be more like a 7700 > 8600 but still
frigid stag
They’re not the same but
somber skiff
skylake/coffee/comet are all the same architecture haha
hoary zodiac
at least coffee lake has more cores
frigid stag
Well that’s like saying 12 to 14 gen is the same
hoary zodiac
kaby lake ages a lot worse than coffee lake
silver sparrow
3rd to 4th had a small uplift then from 5th till like amd started actually being viable they are basically the same just like maybe different clockspeeds

Small improvements yk

Like that’s a gpu test
sinful blade
Wife’s pc still runs her 3600 on oblivion perfectly well
That is one of the best CPUs of all time
hoary zodiac
yes but you still have to crank up the settings
frigid stag
It’s not a good idea for a cpu test
hoary zodiac
to get a measure of performance
hoary zodiac
do you have any evidence to back that up?
frigid stag
That’s why hardware unboxed now complains when boomers ask them why no 4k cpu tests

Need to run at 480p for proper cpu test 
somber skiff
I think the takeaway is that unless you run 360hz on a 600w PL 5090 on water, most of the modern chips are quite fine
frigid stag
Well it’s just that higher resolution is more gpu bound, can guarantee you the gpu is sitting at 95+% usage

oh then why you mention latency?
pseudo raven
oh then why you mention latency?
some of the headphones i looked at even wired had like
a sizable amount of latency
not most though
mostly like consumer focused headphones like the qc ultras and stuff

that is usually only relevant for bluetooth focused headphones that also offer wired

Wouldn't lossless wireless low latency be kinda impossible

@pliant berry you think we need these part identifier emotes?
I don’t think they’re really necessary anymore
pliant berry
Wouldn't lossless wireless low latency be kinda impossible
sounds like it to me on paper but I think it depends. lossless doesn't necessarily mean it's gonna do 96kHz or anything like that. many lossless tracks don't pass around 800mbps anyway so it isn't totally unreasonable
pseudo raven
samsung codec does up to 96khz i think
pliant berry
<@283746095979429888> you think we need these part identifier emotes?
I mean I haven't seen many people use em recently but that I'll let someone else comment on that
pliant berry
there are some bluetooth codecs that support high sample size, but higher latency I imagine
pseudo raven
yeah
buds 3 pro on my pc seems to be about 200 ms
i honestly love how they sound and everything but too much lag
if i could use them wired to my pc somehow i wouldnt buy anything xd

the two popular ones is aptx and ldac. I don't know enough about them though most of my mobile devices support neither

I'd imagine latency comes from error correction moreso than sample rate for equivalent bandwidth
pliant berry

im not really sure what aiaiai's method is but they claim up to 1500kbps at 16bit 44.1kHz with sub 20ms latency. but that is with a rather large proprietary dongle

That's why I use an efficient codec and crank the bitrate down
Encoders also play a large part

ldac seems to have same latency as sbc, 200ms - 300ms. aptx has a two(?) modes, either for high quality which has high latency (same as ldac/sbc) and low quality which has low latency (~50ms)
Im currently just looking at some rtings reviews for that data
pliant berry
That's why I use an efficient codec and crank the bitrate down
really depends what you need it for though. Like h.265 is a nightmare for editing, but i mean nvidia isn't the greatest choice for editing at least on their consumer cards. I still just can't believe it took them until 50 series to add 4:2:2 10bit decode support. a lot of people moved to mac because of that lmao
hoary zodiac
True

I usually encode for storage purposes
Pretty much just having a movie encoded at the minimum size for the maximum quality
pliant berry
yeah nice for storage. converting to av1 could be interesting in the future
hoary zodiac
I'd rather reencode from source tho
Well tbh that depends
If I'm working off a backup in a scenario where the source is gone
Then I work off the backup
Otherwise I'm working off the source (i have still the blu ray or dvd)
