đŸ”¶ HarmonicDyne Helios

I know it may be hard sometimes to interpret my posts. I joke around a lot and on top of that i have a dry sense of humor. Also i say things i suspect may be generally true but specifics may be argued. but i never hype anything. show me an example and i will show you an explanation. I sometimes will recommend something to people when they give the specifics of what they want and i’ll go do the research and find something that fits. also i dont believe in going cheap in this hobby. i believe in buying the most you can of your budget. thats based on my own experience.

Do you think i hyped the Helios? show me an example

Read back on your own posts in this thread. Saying your heard them and they’re better than this or that. People on here won’t understand your dry sense of humor and misinterpret it as a recommendation. No offense but half of what you said on here has been overhyping these to some extent. Like I said. I backed them up too and will give them a try. But I’m keeping my expectations realistic.

ive read them and i dont see any hype. what were you referring to in particular?

Like I said, I understand it’s not, but people won’t realize that what you’re saying is sarcastic or humor.

Honestly, who is going to read “I heard the Helios”, or “they’re better than Aivas” as sarcastic? That’s exactly why I asked where you heard them, so I could understand or point out that you actually didn’t. And I am met with yet another sarcastic response

well a 130$ headphone is not gonna compete with a 600$ headphone of course. and the helios isnt even released yet. how would i get to hear it?

@M0N Can we get a sarcasm font?

I mean to be honest here, some of the stuff said is rather misleading to those who are not informed and just starting out, which this forum is somewhat based on. I’ve made a few sarcastic remarks here and there but I do make sure they really can’t be interpreted other ways than sarcasm

Well zeos seems to claim they’re close to 4-500 dollar headphones. And he tends to hype. And sarcastic “I heard them” and repeat “I heard the Helios” I guess is just pointless humor that I will never understand. But maybe I’m just too logical for such nonsense.

I can easily see people taking that as fact, “Zeos has one so he could too” type of thought, or perhaps they just think they shipped early or something. Just not something I would do personally, I just clearly communicate that I haven’t heard something if someone asks me about something I haven’t heard

i dont sarcasm that much. only in extreme cases

Zeos never said that. he said they compete with the sundara which is a 350$ headphone.

To be clear, I didn’t take the hearing them as sarcasm or realistic. I took it as bs or trolling. But again, some will read it as true because you’re not being clear on it.

350 now but originally 500. Just sayin but thanks for the correction. :+1:

It’s moreso that every time he seems to claim something like that it ends up being grossly overstated

Yeah I get that. I just didn’t see the point in the I heard them statement, sarcasm or no.

Gotcha⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

CONCLUSION

"This was a relatively short review, but Helios is what it is. It’s a headphone that’s acceptable at its early-bird price (which would more likely than not be its street price after its Indiegogo) but does not offer anything more than its immediate competitors.

But as a debut product, HarmonicDyne has at least shown that they can make a decent headphone. A much better start than other new kids I know."

Another reasonable review, interesting that it’s close to the hd599, also that roll off is unfortunate

As soon as I saw sub-bass roll off, I stopped reading, lol.
