I use it most to listen to podcasts (spoken word).
Sometimes some classical or jazz. Maybe on ot Linn streams.

I wrap my wires up in other wires, so any escaping sound still travels up to my ear.

The whole set up cost me $15,000.

My magic rocks should be in the post soon.

sorry, couldn't hear you over my superior consumerist audio :^)

>>59830137
Bose stuff is just fine even in treble

>>59830137
bose ie2s: almost as good as piston 3s and 10x the cost

>>59827299
Oh, crazy, i remember having a microsystem with those speakers.

I kinda miss microsystems now.

I bought some old Sony speakers at a yard sale, to connect these to my computer would a large amp do? I often see these for cheap at yard sales.. or should I invest in a smaller amp?

honestly the sony walkmans really have done a nice job of replacing the ipod classic in the marketplace.

>>59828445
No. Go to hate Apple somewhere.

The fuck is that bullshit?

>>59834247
It looks like a hybrid amp for a Raspberry Pi that uses a 12au7 tube as one of the amplification stages (probably the preamp, but I don't really know too much about this stuff).

I've got Martin Logan speakers in my living room. Trouble is, they're not electrostatics. Poorfagging on a higher end company.

>>59833886

that depends on the resistance and whethere theyre powered or not (assuming not)

I want fat snek cables

This picture makes me so MAD.

Look at that fucking faggot boomer sitting there with his stupid smug face like he's a totally sophisticated patrician with a refined taste. And that fucking mic as if he's a pro voice actor or some shit. In reality he's just some half-deaf faggit with a squaky old man voice who could have gotten the same results with a generic $50 razer headset.

Fucking boomers have way too much money.

Akiba's trip. Its okay-ish. Just ended last week(13 eps)

Each episode kinda deals with a quirky fan hobby... Card battling, Radio, audio, 2D fighting game, etc...

>>59834959
>trouble
No given how awful their electrostats are that's not trouble.

broke as shit here
what is a good $100-150 over the ear headphone? I just want it for listening to music.

Do I need a dac/amp if I have a xonar u7? Using fedilio x2's?

>>59838427
how is the u7 not a dac&amp?
do the x2s get loud enough plugged to it?

>>59834781
>>59834737
Akiba's Trip the Animation. It's alright.

>>59838539
Im a bit confused what a dac/amp really is i guess. Yes they are loud enough. You're saying the soundcard has them built in already?

>>59838577
yes.
DAC converts the signal to an analog voltage, the amp bumps it up to a level that can move the drivers in your headphones and you hear stuff
every phone, computer soundcard, mp3-player and whatnot has a dac/amp combo

>>59838596
Alright thanks for clearing that up!

It needs a seperate power supply brick.

And the pi 3 wireless fucks it up.

And it costs more than the much superior Little Dot Mk1+ (pictured).

Posting audiophile kino.

Audiophiles are the best customers in the world.
They buy all kinds of weird shit for a placebo effect.

Is this Coconut Audio thread?

>>59842587
Webm is of a reviewer exaggerating his dislike of a set of headphones.
The other is not the homeopathic audiophile you think he is. He usually spends more time criticizing that audio trend. He just sat down at a station in an audio trade show.

>>59841646
either a transmission line if there's a port on the back / bottom or just internal volume
big speakers > small speakers
