What did you buy today? (Part 1)

Gonna try out the Audeze Mobius. Another DEALS thread purchase, thanks to @Antpage2

This won’t be my first or primary gaming headset, but B stock price dropped low enough to pique my curiosity about the 3D audio feature. Might be fun.

Will also be interesting to judge this as a gaming headset vs. LCD-GX and, in a couple months, compare notes on the “wireless planar experience” vs. Panda.

Hope you like them. I started contributing to the Deals thread because it seemed to be getting forgot. I want the deals thread to be alive so i can find the deals i want also. I remember buying a headset for regular price when it was on sale and i was bugged the deals thread hadnt told me lol.

So ive been subscribing to the audio sale websites and going to sites like slick deals to find the deals. I just do headphones and amps/dacs. I dont do IEMS or speakers and equipment. i dont know that stuff. But please buy responsibility. dont want someone kicked out of their apartment or even relationship cause of something i posted :flushed:

can you really use an Xduoo XD05 without the battery draining at all… because i use my computer like 13 hours a day for everything from watching videos to listening to music to video games. so having the battery randomly die out will piss me off

just bought something I really don’t need, but I have wanted for a long time:

You can keep it plugged into an outlet and it wont die but usb to your computer wont keep the battery from draining

i need the latter because i cant keep the outlet like that a lot

Zen dac will use one usb cable to your computer and wont require any other cables

my issue there is it might be too big for my bed since its like 11 inches wide and i have the height of a full smartphone as my space

Ifi hip dac then… one usb and much smaller

tell me where i can buy one and i will do it… its not on amazon

they’ll pop up on there again… just keep an eye out :+1: (can’t think of another option… good luck)

Hiby R5 and Leather Case
My first dap. Sounds very good so far. Got it for 299$ from hiby and it arrived without extra taxes and customs in Germany - luckily. The only seller in germany charges 500€ for it.

I have that same AQ Forest USB cable connecting my PC to my Denon PMA-60. Love it.

It made both my semi-professional MOTU Interfaces run rock solid. They often didn’t show up in Cubase and I needed to unplug the USB to make them work again. Probably going to replace all cheap USB stuff inside my homestudio.
It seems to widen the soundstage in HiFi applications and I will be doing a blind test soon to confirm.

So… in knowing I was going to be getting ZMF in the future and love my LCD X. I purchased a Periapt cable. It FINALLY came and holy crap the LCD’s don’t need extra power that comes from this balanced THX 887. But it’s there!
