What did you buy today? (Part 2)

Spent quite a bit of time waffling between this and the GSX-Mini. Finally made my mind up though.

Bought a new mic, and hoping this will be decent sounding at least. For I need it when I am on the road every time I talk with my friends through Discord, or Messenger with my other family relatives. (I fucking hate using Messenger and Facebook, but I am forced to since my mom, dad, grandma, aunt and uncle are the only ones who have been using it with no issues on their hand, and it’s easier for them. Even though I want them to use a different app like Signal.)

Some might know Im not a headphone guy. Ive got Tannoy XT8F towers, but my aunt has moved in having been diagnosed with parkinsons so I dont get the chances to listen at reference level anymore.

Up until now I only had B&W P7s, no soundstage, & some AKG clones by Samson. Both sound nice on my Singxer SA1, but I want soundstage. Not wanting to spend $300 to $400 on just 1 headphone, I just ordered 1 Senn 599SE & 1 Beyer DT990Pro on Amazon.

I cancelled the 990s & ordered Blon B60s instead.

Picked up Yes the Steven Wilson Remixes up in 24/96 for less than $19 for 5 albums! I have Aqualung and Chicago II SWM and enjoy those so this was a no brainer.

I hope you won’t be getting QC issues when it comes to your BTR3K, for I unfortunately had to dealt with mine, for the first BTR3K I ordered just stopped charging altogether and does not turn it on anymore after a few days of use. Luckily, with the 2nd one I am not facing issues anymore and I hope it stays that way.

Fiio BTA30 Pro + Final ZE3000 TWS = :sparkling_heart:

Just a few thoughts…
I love this pairing. I only tested the following scenario in the 60min have the BTA30 in use.

  • BTA30 plugged in to my Win 10 PC as a DAC/transmitter to the ZE3000

First of all the the ZE3000 is the best TWS I own soundwise. Very balanced sound signature all around. The head-fi reviews are on point. I don’t notice the long-known BT hiss or humm in any pairing neither with the Fiio nor with the LG V30.
Things I like so far:

  • the transmission range is impressive, ymmv with concrete walls.
    ** through 1 brick wall → :white_check_mark:
    ** through 2 brick walls → :white_check_mark:
    ** through 3 brick walls → :negative_squared_cross_mark:

  • The volume knob is very convenient in a desktop or preamp setup

  • No perceivable lag while PC gaming or watching videos

Schiit Sys, Black $49.

Now I can easily switch between three amps and three dacs in seconds.
Makes comparisons very easy and fast!

The Soluspeak ST 42 is a 4 in to 2 out…so one of the outs go to the Schiit Sys
and is selected via the front panel Schiit Sys pushbutton.

$700 for 3 pairs if shoes? The greater tragedy is she will never wear them probably & they will eventually get lost in her collection of shoes, for which she has a dedicated closet not counting whats under the bed & you could have bought 2 back up pair of Sundara’s or something, or 7 years worth of new pads for your favorite headphones.
