Take care, jtās that time of year for fluās and stuff.
Iām trying to dodge catching stuff from my Son everyday during vacation.
Well done, Chris. Respect.
Thanks. The past few days have been brutal. Just been in bed resting, sleeping, and watching movies. I watched Dune for the first time last night. Wow, what a cool movie. I plan to watch part 2 tonight.
Enjoy the down time.
Nice time to give your body and mind some rest.
Enjoy some flicks sounds like a perfecr plan
My movie phones.
NDA including pre approval built in?
For a faux Gold dongle?
TFOH
Yeah, up the ass with that shit.
I blind bought the TSMR X as my first IEM!
I wrote about thw X vs Shock here
The X are fun, bassy and good separation, but I find the mids lacking body these days. I prefer punch, estrella, and shock over X.
That pad swap looks interesting! Which ones did you use? From my experience, those thicker, deeper pads really add some nice additional kick in the sub-bass due to the increased distance from the ear. Rest of the frequency response is another story, mostly dependent on material, but thatās why we experiment.
If you havenāt tried the Ultrasone Signature X, I highly recommend doing so at some point, even with the (very legitimate) build quality concerns. My all-time favorite closed backs for roundhouse kick to the eardrum levels of bass but still good all-around sound. Those thick pads reminded me of them.
Thicker pads usually seals better, I believe that is the bigger factor for this.
Curious
Looks like Bass is back.
Fatfreq showed a market and shit on their own customers.
Any companies filling that void with good QC/ Branded drivers and no absolute abuse of customersā¦is welcome.
Lets go team BASS!!!
Sorry to hear that, feel better soon.
We have had fans drying out our basement after the backup and steam cleaning. After 10 days of the fans running, our house is quiet. I actually went to the library to listen to the music Wed. evening for an hour or so, because the house was too noisy, and it was too cold outside to sit on the patio.
I am waiting on a collab set that wonāt be afraid to go mid-bass heavy. Need SLAM, heft, lower midrange presence. High Volume set.
1dd? interesting target!
Yeah, 10mm DD from Huayunxin and shell from them as well.
2 really well tuned sets.
It is said the drivers hold them back.
Interesting as fuck
So yah saying the driver quality is what makes the tuningā¦ great?
And custom/trust us bro drivers are ignored when itās your friends or a company you wanna support?
Either tuning matters or drivers matter or waitā¦itās both
Why are we talking about no named drivers in 2025?
My badā¦itās folks who got approached and paid cash or goods to pump that shit onto the community.
Knowles and Sonion allow you to mention them if they are custom done by themā¦itās part of the deal.
Yeah, Iām using pads from Modhouse for fit and seal. Stock pads too shallow. Love the sound stock but not comfort (stock)
