There's nothing neutral about them.

If you're having battery drain with recent lineageos, I fixed that on mine by installing latest radio/etc fw.
This was a week or two before the recent Japan trip. Very conveniently, the battery did last a great deal again after the update.

My 007 mk2.9 is coming soon. Is there a mod guide anywhere for the blue tack seal mod?

Isn't that the hiroshima dome?

>buy overpriced memephones
>needs a mod to not sound like absolute shit
lmao

yeah i have the latest firmware, the battery life isnt as good as nitrogen but its more than serviceable for work. battery lasts well over a day even during heavy use.
the issue is more that i can no longer transfer files over usb, and i cant install half the roms i used to.
the power button also got jammed somehow and it turns off the phone during work hours, sometimes in the middle of a sale, and i don't wanna dismantle the phone to clean it out with the potential of not having a cell for work, which i need.

Ouch.
Mine seems still alright in this front. If I don't play the 3d idol games (keep it just to llsif) it easily lasts the whole week. It's amazing it's doing this well after all this time desu. The experience is as good if not better than when it was new.

Oh. I'm careful AF... not even a scratch anywhere.
In my whole life, I've yet to drop anything. That must be absurdly uncommon, as I see a lot of people with near-destroyed phone screens while commuting everyday.

I dread the time when I actually need a new phone. The market seems terrible, with all the non-amoled devices wit stupid notches, holes and no headphone jacks.

Redpill on STAX for newbies: STAX is an old Jap company with outdated tech that was considered high end back in the 1960s and 1970s but sounds like ass by today's standards, so they went nearly bankrupt. They were purchased by a Chinese company for just a million dollars who decided to market STAX to the audiophool "more expensive is better" demographic who buys those crappy $3000 vinyl players, they shill heavily on HeadFi and here on /hpg/, plus they pay Zeos to shill their crap.

>In December 2011, Chinese loudspeaker manufacturer Edifier announced the acquisition of 100% equity in Stax

Oratory has measured the highest end STAX, the SR-009S.

dropbox.com/s/61srehjyaltd7w0/Stax SR-009S.pdf?dl=0

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

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

Recently Rtings rated STAX across various dimension, it's worse in terms of sound than mid-priced offerings from Hifiman and Audeze, and only got a 7.7 rating.

To add insult to overpriced injury, they have shitty plastic build quality that you would expect on cheap chinkshit headphones:

Even best Stax headphones sound objectively worse than mid-fi. This is why they don't demo them in store, they rely on the internet to create a sense of mystique around STAX and shill it as the endgame because its expensive, Asian, rare and obscure. In reality its no bass sounding garbage, with shrill highs that appeal only to near-deaf boomer. STAX is Made in China snakeoil for the audiophool boomer.

They probably have no such thing, user.

Can't wait for when it's the samefagging nostax trannycel's turn.

I remember you, aren't you the user who got her hd800?

I am, yes.

How did she die? She must have been the single female alive who's into this meme hobby.

I remember her. How did she die?

user move on already

She committed suicide.

I wish it was that easy. I really do.

it is easy you just aren't taking responsibility. you're still posting here for example.

>She committed suicide.
Why?

She suffered from major depression.

Hey audiophiles, bit of a technical question here I hope you can help with.
I'm looking to find some sort of bluetooth transmitter for my record player to my dac/amp, but I'm worried that since the record player can only do line level output rather than a "proper" signal, that transmitters might not work well with this? Anyone have any experience with this?
Bonus: anyone know any decent BT transmitter? Preferably supporting aptX HD.

Thanks in advance.

considering getting M50x meme headphones, not an avid audiphile but i trust you fags and your opinions and i've heard some good things about them in the past. my budget is ~$100. are they really as good as people say?

Holy FUCK those are ugly

No. In fact their meme status has made them more expensive now than originally, and many consider the cheaper M40x to sound better.

That's a wetback though, and in all honesty, it is impossible to find white people able to perform any meaningful labor in commiefornia.

it's better than STAX at the least

fuck now i need to buy one
why did you tell me stax measure like shit /hpg/?

yeah i noticed they went up since i last looked a while ago. cheers. are the m40x about as good as i'll get at this price range, or have you found any better alternatives?
t. im a brainlet

Stax is midfi tier.

Electrostatics is a old meme, earfield is the future.

RAAl is Summit Fi.

triggered incels. they'll meme anything because staxchads made fun of them and they're bitter and depressed

That's in America, and its just using immigrant labor for the menial hand labor tasks.

Stax are LITERALLY made in China, by Chinks, out of cheap plastic.

That's a Mexican you retard. Its California.

that's pretty sad, no wonder everybody here in /hpg/ hates them

Its just you shilling and pretending you're multiple people faggot

Makes sense, but at that point, i'd just contract some chinese factory like everybody else. The factory tour video just made me realise how these are overpriced garbage, compared to Meze's engineering and craft. One is CNC'ing aluminum and developing new drivers, the other is a "upgraded" M1060 built in a shed, and somehow costs 10 times more.
The "fazor" magnet part was almost cringeworthy when compared to Meze's driver technology.
