That message sounds like a nuclear threat. What in the fuck is wrong with him??
i just looked up m15i specs, The power output is very low for a guy like me. The mega5est, you are probably running them at very low or decent listening volumes (if thatās your preference?). I do know that their engineering is pretty good tho.
There is no nuclear threat here. IRAN was the nuclear threat. He is going to eliminate it, plain and simple. And Iām OK with that. This filthy, sub-human regime has terrorized the world and its own people for decades. They have held the world hostage long enough. Time for them to go and give the people there a chance for a real future. Trump is the only one who has the balls to do it.

The Mega5EST is just the first set I have tried. I donāt have many to choose from, but I am going to run every set I do have through this combo and see which one sounds best.
For me, power wasnāt the driving factor (see what I did there? 
) stage and clarity was. I am not a basshead. I like bass (who doesnāt) but I want clean, pure bass, not bass that just punches you in the face. So far, this M15i is doing a really nice job for me. I have not even tried hi gain yet; so far, I have not needed it.

Heās theatening with genocide. Thatās a big no no.
Swapping out regimes, yes. Absolutely. But that only works long term with boots on the ground and a willing population. By including them in his threat that hope is lost.
Even if you manage to weed out a regime that is preparing for this controntation for 40 years, remnants will just come back after a bit. Just look at Afghanistan.

Genocide? You are way off base here. So what, you are just going to sit on your hands and let them have a nuke while whining about how mean they are? LOL He has made the call for the Iranian people to rise up and take their country back repeatedly. So far, nothing. You would think the rest of the world would want this too, but everyone else is just clutching their pearls and yelling foul. No one wants to do the work. The level of cowardice is astounding to me.
Change is hard. He needs to walk a fine line here. Itās very difficult to try and talk reason to animals who will not. His choice of words isnāt always the best, but the goals are clear.
And you want to talk genocide? Letās talk about a regime who slaughters over 45,000 of its own people. Letās talk about a regime who sets up military installations and hides weapons in schools and hospitals while using their own people as human shields. THAT is genoicide. Yet Trump is the bad guy? That is Laughable.

Yea I follow the guy on Instagram who did the custom Casio. Reid even wrote to him to thank him just before the flight. Love watches but not touching that hobby since is hella expensive rabbit hole. Coffee and audio is enough

Thatās why RAM is expensive as hell although worth it for good laughs hahaha

How else would they make a pro version with properly designed cables that they can charge extra for?

Thing is, LG did a terrible job with their quad dac implementation in this regard. You have 3 separate modes, normal, AUX and 50+ohm mode. With Normal I believe it has 0.5vrms, AUX 1vrms and 50+ohm mode 2vrms, you can ācheatā it into aux mode with extension cables iirc, but the only way to trigger 50+ohm mode is with something over 50ohm impedance (I also think Root may help here).

BLON has given up.
Epic waste of a known budget brand.
They make money selling drivers to other companies iirc.

congrats with the upgrade and welcome to the hobby! Dongles are awesome, donāt think you miss out too much, I for myself canāt tell a difference between my 200$ dongle and a 1000$ dap except purely for power (loudness) output. I think the next step would be separate desktop dac and amp, no less.
@Spam_D_G0D I think you got confused by m15i specs because they disclose power output for 300 ohm load.

Yeah thatās like close to 10ma and maybe 50~80ma at lower loads i expect close to like 120ma kinda output.
Nah no genocide will happen but probably will wipe out everything they have in military and energy department and get them back to stone age where they actually were with this regime after being quite good nation and progressive country for years. They wonāt have any other path than surrender. They will put boots on ground for sure after that to finish the job. Yes agreed about the previous cases but that doesnāt mean they will let this one play out like that. USA does what it wants as every other big player. You think Trump and Putin are different and donāt like each other nah every step is planned between them for their benefit. Only outsider is China that wants in on the big game and they are now on the table. How will they play the dealt hand we shall see. Dunno if you watched the interview with Annie Jacobsen or read her latest novel, with deterrence in place nuclear winter can happen only in a mad king scenario. Mad king scenario is North Korea and Iran and no one else. Today we are far away from the cold war and good path has been established for lowering the nuclear deterrence. Itās sad that for Iran case, oil control is the goal covered by the regime and nuke problem which can cause way worse consequences for the Earth as planet. But we know since dawn of time that behind every big move only money and control of power is the ultimate goal.

Sort of the reason why they stay quiet. Fear. (And indoctrination ofc. You see the same in Russia)
There is a popular show here in Belgium called Reizen Waes. The setup is that the presenter tries to travel to uncommon locations to see how viable tourism can be there. Heās one of the very few western presenters who was alowed in Turkmenistan, heās been to Colombia, Venezuela etc. And at one point he was in Iran. In public, people were happily burning US flags and saying things were great, but then an old man shows up and tells them how itās really going and how scared everyone is.
That left an impression.
Also abt, 6 years ago we had an Iranian sailor on one of our barges. He always claimed that he deserted the revolutional garde and was tortured for it. He never backed up his claims, but he was batshit insane. When we discovered that he slept with a machete under his pillow, we fired him.
Thatās an understatement 
.
He really shouldnāt have access to his phone until heās had his morning coffee.
Nope, that would be Netanyahu. Heās the one who suckered Trump into spending so much on this conflict imho. The zionism in Isreal has gotten so bad that the Chassidic communities here in Antwerp (one of the largest and wealthiest in the world, because they basically own the diamond trade) are speaking out against him.
But yes, something needs to change there. Not because of the nuclear threat, but because financing the instabilty in the middle east. Iām still not sure if this the right way to do it from a humanistic perspective speaking.

Maybe, but for IEMs, I find it great. And yeah it makes no difference anymore, LG is deaaad. You know what though, I adore the Dolby DTS X 3D mode for my portable Minirig 3s. Man it makes those sing.

Absolutely, you dont need more than 0.5vrms for most stuff unless you go to deafening levels.

thatās for low impedance driversā¦ which is like the majority anyways.
