Something else that is telling across this whole debate, is how people are either siding with the reviewer(s) or the vendor.
Straight up, I have bought a few of your collabs/recs without ever getting a bum steer - mainly because your library and tastes are similar to mine. Equally, I enjoy & respect Crin, Gizaudio, Akros etc but wouldn’t necessarily buy on their say so as their FR tastes are different to mine.
It does however pay to read/watch as many reviews as possible to get a balanced view of a product - something which you also mention often.
and nobody who is a part of their regular 1st wave of reviewers has spoken up.
As incredible as it all seems, KZ will be fine. They will lose some market but folks not into the hobby simply don’t care about million dollar brands arguing with million dollar brands.
Also…is it me or is it Drama week?? Just noticed Nexus gamer
Gotta take those protective covers off the mouses skid pads folks.
Trust as we all know is earned, and there are many reviewers that clearly have earned it (yourself included). What saddens me is that the DMS issue is not a unique event. You have all been subjected to similar levels of vitriol and comments of shilling in the past.
As I’m not a reviewer, I can only imagine how challenging it must be to rank, rate and review today’s iems - given that the quality has risen so fast.
Gotta love those ‘hater’ keyboard warriors and their bravery of being out of range.
Damn man that’s some killer specs. Your CPU is running some killer specs. The CPU choice is nuts you’ve got more power and cores than my home server. Running 32 dockers and dishing out all kinds of services. You doing any type of stuff to push it to it limits beside benchmarks? Props for the build quality as well it looks really clean and thought out. Wire management is on point.
Yeah reddit is blowing up over it. Linus’ response was a whole bunch of nothingburger. Just a wall of text basically saying “we acknowledge that we messed up, but we’re victims here too!”
What model/brand is it? The modular design looks really versatile. Using a Simgot EA500 and it’s fun for gaming with the black nozzles, red nozzles are too much bass though for explosion heavy environments.
