What did you buy today? (Part 1)

What? The Nerd Rage POP! figure from Fallout? Yeah, was a Christmas gift.

Stock for stock, at least in Cinebench R20, the desktop is ~1.7x faster


Over the last week Iā€™ve bought:-

Edifier S3000 Pro + Stands
Edifier S350DB
FiiO K3

Pray for my wallet.

I badly needed an audio upgrade, like, everywhere.

They really are great sets of speakers. Personally Iā€™m not really that bothered about the whole ā€œI need separate everythingā€. My wallet simply wouldnā€™t take it because Iā€™d be buying stuff ALL the damn time.

Though, I can justify spending monies on more headphones and DAC/AMPs though. I work in an open plan office and would rather die in a fire than have to listen to idle chit chat all day.

Completely understandable, it seems like you need the most isolation you can get then lol

Itā€™s not too bad all the time. Itā€™s just when you really need to concentrate, music helps me through the day lol. I do have decent noise cancelling bluetooth headphones, but after buying a K3 I got the DT770ā€™s out again and they sound WAY better than they did with the E10K. Oh my, what have I started.

Nice, which ohm? The 770s benefit a fair bit from a good amp/dac

I have the 80ā€™s

Ohhhhhhh! Thatā€™s from fallout! Interesting never knew! Thought that was something you made or something

Yep

Just ordered a Jade Audio EA3, couldnā€™t resist and I currently donā€™t have any BA IEMs in my collection so this will hopefully fulfill that role nicely. on a side note this will be my 10th pair of IEMsā€¦ I really need to cull it down before I buy anymore, haha. Not enough time to listen them all.

Damn 10? Lol, for sure you canā€™t have the time to listen to them all

You can listen to them all if you try hard enough lol, Iā€™m sure youā€™ll get around to it
