"stop spamming my general nostaxers!" - miku

The last thread went by way too quick

ALSO WHERE ARE THE ANIME GIRL FEET?

reddit.com/r/headphones/comments/9o2f5n/psa_oratory1990s_list_of_eq_presets/

Oratory has measured the SR-009S.

dropbox.com/s/dm0m6u3s3b4zqzl/Sennheiser HD600.pdf?dl=0

It's worse than the HD600. HD600 scored 92 and SR-009S scored 76.

This really seals the deal that STAX are audiophool garbage.

That kind of happens when a mentally ill person snaps and starts spamming like there's no tomorrow.

Anyways, does anyone have any recs for some decent vintage headphones with interesting tech? Below $200 please.

Gee, I wonder if nostaxers will continue samefagging and spamming in this thread. Or maybe they will all magically go to sleep at the same time and we can have some proper discussion.

blame the samefags

Why is STAX such poorly build plastic chinkshit?

It's probably the OP.

why do my stax make a metallic sound when I put them on fast sometimes?

>they will all magically go to sleep at the same time
Oy vey, delete this post.

Considering you don’t know the difference between build and built I’d assume you know since you live around the area Nikki.

why do my hd600 make a pooping noise and start smelling really bad when i put them on sometimes?

Well your hygiene must be shit, therefore repeated usage of your headphones made them smell like shit as well.

Don't forget a calibrated measurement mic and a miniDSP 2x4HD for flat bass response.

STAX is literally chinkshit

What is the best DAC ever made supposed to be exactly?

Friendly reminder that there is a chink dac with in like 2 db of the best DAC ever made and it only costs $100.
khadas tone board
I fucked up my formating
some oppo shit

The words in the background are japanese. You’re mentally retarded.

it says made in japan on the transducers and energizer

The best DAC in the world is a chink DAC too.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oppo

Anyone know how to show the number of filtered posts in Jow Forums x?

I’ve been interested in getting a tone board but the lack of a case really ruins it for me. Anywhere I can get one?

march audio DAC1 (kek)

you are all arguing about a 5-10% difference

you can get those little pcb shelves to put it on but most people just tape it under their desk. i want one too.
oh you can also 3d print one or possible get it intside of the official khadas case

Remember, friends don't let friends become 50 year old STAX incels

Attached: STAX boomer.jpg (1000x664, 97K)

Measures better than the Tone board but it kind of is double the price.
Is there an official case?

5-10% can make a person really, really, fucking mad. Case in point: last thread.

>hairlet
>stax
Seems accurate.

it's for a different thing they sell but there is a khadas branded case. asr is like khadas tone board+atom/thx 789 central and there are people figuring out cases in the thread for it there
i would just tape it under my desk though

It actually is a tone board, just in a fancy case.

Hm. I’ll check it out.
Double the price for a fancy case, no thanks.

that was fucking juicy he really thought he could hide it
not only did it measure exactly the same but the rear had the exact same connectors the exact same distance apart

>anime/childrens toys in the background

Seems like a STAX incel to me.

I was shitposting with my friends. sorry I don't live in /hpg/ and capture every moment in real time

I sit here every day listening to crystal clear, detailed, punchy and energetic music while nostaxxers spam /hpg/

>using filters
pussy

I'm going to be honest because I'm a bit ashamed. I have spent the last at least three, maybe four, days just browing amazon endlessly looking at speakers.
Seems like vanatoo transparent 0's, some dsp solution, and a measurement mic are the way to go. It's crazy when my $25 speakers shit on my headphones in some ways.
Then on the other hand you get people saying you need to spend $20k on speakers and room treatment to beat a $1.7k sr007(both using dsp i assume).

That's because saying speakers beat headphones or vice versa is completely retarded. It's like saying a F1 racecar beats a pickup truck - it just makes no sense.

Who the fuck is Nikki?

it does though, f1 always wins.
pick up trucks are for blue collar bottom of humanity wagecucks

Nikita, aka AmazingComment on reddit. Spams about Harman target and Stax being shit all day 24/7

wrong, I can run over far more subhuman nostaxers with a pickup truck

I'm looking to not spend a lot, but I need a quality pair of Bluetooth noise cancelling rechargeable headphones, from a reputable name, no chink shit. Send help.

>*runs out of fuel*
Man, I knew nostaxers were dumb but not this dumb.

You can’t even afford a $500 headphone. You’re not driving anything more than a beat up soviet car nikki.

no its the incel with the 15db bass boost lcd2f

that's high T as fuck, you're literally jealous

Beat up indian slave-driven carriages are not known for their speed either.

look mom i said it again

Umm 801 is a staxxer

Nigger I know. Just this general cannot and will not shut the fuck up about stax, positive or negative. How can you not get bored with it.

lol buy stax

>stax
No. Fucking. Bass.

He said stax not HD600, calm down.

Im going insane. This exact shit is posted day in and day out. Like I sear to god loom at another thread and these same three ideas are replicated ad nauseum.
Youd have to be a fuckin monkey to keep posting these ideas over and over and over.

redpill me on zmf headphones

>wooden beats
Now with drivers made out of chinese beauty products!

Most people here shitpost against STAX or Senns but those headphones are actually high quality headphones. ZMF on the other hand is straight up shit that measures like garbage.

I'm using midend motherboard stock audio out and, while not unhappy with audio quality, I am bothered by some line noise in some games (both directly from line out and over displayport) and having to cumbersomely reach behind my powered speakers to adjust their volume knobs (to keep good volume slider resolution when switching between media of different volumes, ie movies and tv using higher dynamic range that are practically fucking silent otherwise).

The question: Should I bother with a dac/amp of higher quality (lol stack) for the JBL LSR305s and Brainwavz HM5 I'm using or just get a decent cheap dac/amp combo? What might that be, given that I'd like it to be able to switch between two outputs - headphone and speaker? I know there are standalone switches but theyre all like $40 despite just being a dpdt switch with three jacks soldered on and I don't particularly want to risk making one myself.

I firmly believe that most posts in these headphone threads are by spambots, not by actual people.

just filter the word stax

It’s almost definitely 2 or 3 people who know each other spamming the same bait at the same hours to shit up the thread. Notice how all the shitposting just vanished suddenly on cue.

it's gotten to the point where most requests are tards who just want wireless headphones
the regulars post this garbage all day every day
and no headphone users just shit on everything everyone owns regardless of what it is

I am finally stuck with a phone with no headphone jack after avoiding it for years. How screwed am I? Is this a legitimately good thing now and I am a retarded young boomer? My sister has a 2018 $40,000 car with bluetooth that sounds like ass and cuts out every other song. This is regardless of what device is being played from. I have literally never heard bluetooth sound that didn't fuck up like a scratched cd.

Am I irredeemably a moron, or am I missing something, or is this just thjs way of the world and everyone has the same experience? Help me, Jow Forums. I come from /a/ so here is an offering in return.

Previous thread : 314 posts, 25 unique ips, that's worse than the average of about 40 to 50 when the general fills up. Did sapphire and nikita forget to take their meds? You two, there is only one thing you can do to ease your suffering. Do it like Terry A. Davis did. Ride those fucking train tracks.

Buy a dongle retard

I'll give you my DONGLE bitch

I found someone selling some Sennheiser model hd 4.5btnc bluetooth headphones for like $100. Seems like a good deal, and they have everything I need, Bluetooth, ANC. I really only need them to listen to music on my phone at work, and games on my Vita during my commute. Should I cop or nah?

>bluetooth

>snapheiser

OH NO NO NO NO NO

Okay, what would you suggest?

I'm not looking to spend that kind of cash at the moment, these ones stuck out because of the price alone.
