  13. @gadgetbridge Nice, keep up the great work! 🙌

    Really wish my my glorious #AudioTechnica ATH-M50xBT2 were supported, best wireless/wired #headphones I have ever owned, even without noise cancelling.

    At least their app isn't as bad as the total mess by #Sony. Most confusing and annoying UI I have ever seen, while charging super premium prices and having absolutely terrible customer support. 🫠 #GadgetBridge got me covered here, though! ✌️

  15. Enfin, cellule remplacée et je passe d'une #AudioTechnica à une #Ortophon, ça devrait me changer la vie. Essai demain.
    Bon par contre, un stylus se change tous les 600 à 800 heures, je comprends pourquoi je trouvais le son dégueulasse. Plus qu'à la changer... Tous les ans 😅

  16. I’ve been researching DJ vinyl turntables the past couple days, as I’m looking to upgrade. It’s been six months since I last compared prices. It seems several Audio-Technica tables are at least $100 USD more expensive than they used to be and I expect other brands have followed a similar trend. I better grab some decent tables before I’m priced out. Tariffs stink.

  17. I suppose you can congratulate me on purchasing my first ever vinyl record player. What a joy it is!

  18. I accidentally drenched the charging case with electrolyte-infused water. After it dried, it miraculously survived.

    Later on I forgot to take the earbuds out of my pants and ran them through a wash cycle. After drying, they still work as if nothing happened! I was shocked.

    In a world of planned obsolescence, these earbuds — $100 cheaper than Apple's AirPods Pro, with over 3x the battery life — are worth going out of my way to praise.

    I wish #AudioTechnica all the success for their high quality engineering.

  22. Is there anyone among my followers using Audio Technica ATH M60X headphones? I am trying to match a 1-quarter-intch adapter to their cable but none I have fit. A customer supporter (LOL) from Audio Technica says that any should fit but this does not seem to be the case here. Should I be looking for a specific adapter on Amazon? Thanks for any advice! #audio #headphones #audiotechnica

  24. Really tempted to get #Fairphone #Fairbuds XL for noise cancelling office headphones. I currently have #AudioTechnica ATH-M50x which I'm really happy with, but I've been moved into a bigger office room and I'd like to have noise canceling.

    The new Sony XM5 inexplicably cannot fold into a small size so they're out. Bose I have no idea of. Fairphone would be repairable and that would be nice. But I can't try them out anywhere so I'm hesitant.

    Any experiences?

  28. New interface (Røde Streamer X), Audiotechnica mic and a low profile mic arm arrive today. Perhaps I'll do a test stream on Twitch tonight to give it a whirl. I've been playing #DyingLight so it would probably just be me aimlessly roaming around looking for trophies and flags. #gaymer #gamer #twitch #streaming #rode #audiotechnica

  29. "The life of a #battery in an #AudioTechnica product is guaranteed for 500 charge cycles."[1]

    No wonder my #in-ear's battery life is more-or-less halved (~10h instead of the advertised 20h) after close to 2 years of more or less daily use (& charging). And worse: the left earpice started to regularly (at least once per week or so; I didn't keep notes though) just not charge, when put into the charging case.

    Such a shame, those feel like otherwise great #headphones!

  30. I caved and ordered new #headphones again. Not thrilled about it. I kind of hate buying new stuff but wearing #AudioTechnica #ATHM50x every day is excruciating on the ears. I can't handle it anymore.

  33. I thoroughly enjoy the listening experience from my Schiit Audio Modi 3+ and Shiit Audio Magni Heresy. I noticed that the "Schiit Stack" sound is better and more enjoyable than my Mac’s 3.5mm headphone jack or the iPhone 11 Pro over Bluetooth headphones or via the pigtail adapter.

    I want to sit in a chair, my eyes closed, and imagine Dad is with me, both of us quietly enjoying the moment. Dad had a large vinyl collection. I have none. Correct, I had none. Let’s back up a bit.

    I felt nostalgic for the final weeks of my last year (1986) of school. It was June and Carnival time in St. Vincent, and Kingstown was excitedly buzzing. Carnival attracts thousands of tourists and is a colourful and vibrant celebration of music, dance and Vincentian heritage. Towns nationwide come alive with street parties, calypso and steelpan performances, costume parades and much more.

    I had just completed my A-levels, and my brother Shane, our close friend Andre, and I were excited about Carnival. We encouraged David, our exchange student from Los Angeles, to come along. David didn’t know what he was in for.

    Carnival starts in the middle of June, culminating on two special days, a Monday and Tuesday, at the start of July. The Monday is called J’Ouvert, a contraction of the French term Jour Overt, meaning "early morning". A fete1 runs from midnight to dawn. A large band then takes to the streets of Kingstown, waking the residents to enjoy the penultimate day of the carnival. J’Ouvert is followed by Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday). In Vincy Mas, a band of the year competition is followed by a final parade of the mass bands to signal the end of the festival.

    That last J’Ouvert morning in St. Vincent, we got up early, around 4 AM, piled into Andre’s Peugeot, and headed into town to meet the band. Andre parked the car at Barclays Bank, and we joined the celebration.

    The street is filled with human beings, jam-packed like sardines in a tin. A large truck with enough speakers to sink a boat moves slowly through the street, inching forward at one mile/hour. The dancing, writhing crowd surrounds the truck, the truck and people moving in perfect harmony. The air is filled with the sound of the year's calypso anthem, "I want soca". The music is infectious. The DJ is playing this seven-minute song on a continuous loop. The party never stops, and neither do we.

    Oh, man! I miss it.

    audio-technica AT-LP60X · Monday 28 August 2023 · FujiFilm X-T3 · XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR

    Unfortunately, most of the calypso music from my youth, including Alston "Beckett" Cyrus’s hit, I Want Soca, never transitioned to digital. I spent hours searching Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, SoundCloud, Tidal and others. If I wanted to listen to the calypso of my youth, I would have to get vinyl pressings.

    A quick Google search and I discovered multiple vinyl copies of the single on discogs. I bought a few other recordings. But I didn’t have a record player. The sleeved black disks sat on my desk while I dreamed of turntables, phono cartridges, pre-amplifiers, amplifiers, and speakers.

    Schiit Audio claims their products are "designed and built in California". When they say "designed and built in California," they mean that most of the production costs for their products—including the chassis, boards, and assembly—are allocated to U.S. companies that manufacture within the United States. The chassis and PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) are manufactured nearby or in Northern California. In essence, Schiit Audio is a product company deeply rooted in local production.

    About a year after I bought the [Schiit Audio Modi 3+ and Shiit Audio Magni Heresy] while searching for more vinyl, I walked into Princeton Record Exchange. I was looking for records. I walked out with an Audio Technica AT-LP60X.

(3.9')), AC adapter (approx. 1.5 m (4.9'))

    The AT-LP60X is a basic turntable. While the Wirecutter and others will recommend a [starter combo] with "an affordable turntable" and powered speakers costing over $600, the AT-LP60X was just $149. I had no speakers. I remembered that Shiit Audio offered a product called SYS.

    Schiit PYST by Snake Oil · Saturday 26 August 2023 · FujiFilm X-T3 · XF27mmF2.8 R WR

    Schiit Audio often markets their products humorous and irreverently, but the company is serious about audio quality. SYS, which Schiit Audio says is short for "Switch Your Stuff", is a 2-way switch and a potentiometer. The SYS allows me to switch between two audio sources or control the volume for a single audio output without adding active components to the signal path. Being a passive preamplifier means it doesn't require power and won't amplify the signal. This is often seen as beneficial for audio purists who want to maintain the audio signal's integrity without introducing additional noise or distortion that active electronic components could bring.

    Schiit Audio Stack · Saturday 26 August 2023 · FujiFilm X-T3 · XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR

    I bought some RCA PYST Snake Oil branded cables with the SYS passive switch. Snake Oil is a start-up from California. The name PYST is a playful acronym for "Put Your Schiit Together". These cables connect various audio components, e.g. [Schiit Audio Modi 3+ and Shiit Audio Magni Heresy]. However, they can also be used in other configurations. The PYST cables are typically well-received for being high-quality interconnects that provide reliable performance, although, like any other brand, user experiences may vary.

    Schiit AudioSYSNumber of inputs2 (stereo RCA)Number of outputs1 (stereo RCA)Input impedance10k ohmsOutput Impedance5k ohms maximumSize5 x 3.5 x 1.25”Weight1 lb

    I easily switch between the Schiit Audio Modi 3+ DAC or AT-LP60X, feeding into the Shiit Audio Magni Heresy headphone amplifier and using the potentiometer to adjust the volume in my Grado SR-60s headphones. Listening on my Grado SR-60s, I easily switch between the AT-LP60X for vinyl and the Schiit Audio Modi 3+ for Apple Music streaming. The total cost of the SYS and PYST was $69. This kit is not the vintage system I had imagined, but the system's compact size and minimalism are better suited for my small home listening room space. This solution works for me.

    Schiit Audio Stack · Saturday 26 August 2023 · FujiFilm X-T3 · XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR

    At some point, I would like to get some powered speakers. Schiit Audio makes powerful amplifiers, but they are not budget-friendly (at least not for my budget). The Magni Heresy has an RCA output that can connect to the input of powered book-shelf-size speakers (aka monitors) from JBL or Klipsch. My "Plan B" is to connect some used Bose 901 speakers to an old Sony AV amplifier I found in the basement. I’m not sure which way to go.

    I'm thinking of grabbing some powered speakers at some point. Schiit Audio has some pretty awesome amplifiers, but they're a bit too pricey for me. The Magni Heresy has an RCA output that could hook up to some compact powered speakers, like the ones from JBL or Klipsch. My other plan is to get some old Bose 901 speakers and the Sony AV amp collecting dust in the basement.

    1. Fete is a word of French origin meaning a celebration or festival. But in the English-speaking Caribbean islands, a fete means a Carnival party. ↩

  34. The only pair of #headphones that doesn't give me #earache (via #clampforce and/or #earpad) after a while that I know of is the ATH-R70x by #audiotechnica, which is why I like a decent set of #iem's over classic #overear or #onear headphones. In general I prefer speakers to headphones though, and not just for comfort. 😇️

    M50 - первое поколение проводных наушников.
    M50x - их апгрейд. Сейчас выпускают и продают именно их.

    M50xBT - первое поколение беспроводной версии куда встроили Bluetooth модуль с SBC и aptX. Включение/выключение - механическая качелька (которая у меня спустя годы сломалась). При этом качелька хоть и механическая, включение всё равно софтовое. Включение голосового ассистента - касание к чашке наушника. Зарядка - MicroUSB.

    M50xBT2 - второе поколение беспроводной версии на другом Bluetooth модуле с SBC, AAC и LDAC. Включение/выключение совмещено с кнопкой Play/Pause. Голосовой помощник - отдельная кнопка другой формы над кнопками управления проигрыванием и громкостью. Могут настраиваться в приложении - может настраиваться гранулярность регулирования громкости и обновляться прошивка.
    Зарядка - Type-C.
    Что-то ещё пишут, что драверы доработали, вроде, люди говорят, что бас более ровный стал. Но я не проверял, т.к. у меня в разном состоянии (амбушюры, etc) наушники.

    У беспроводных версий есть подключение кабелем - то есть их можно использовать и по проводу.

    У первой беспроводной версии в комплекте шёл кабель с микрофоном, а у второй - без.

    #headphones #AudioTechnica #thoughts #review #M50x

  36. В общем, по результатам голосования (на самом деле, несколько раньше) получил наушники.

    Пришлось ещё и заплатить почте почти тыщу в качестве сборов за возврат.

    Тем временем вчера также обнаружил, что продавец написывает мне в личку в Ozon сообщениями вида "ТЫ ГДЕ?" и "ТЫ МЕНЯ ОБМАНЫВАЕШЬ С ЭТИМ ТРЕКОМ".

    Учитывая, что сейчас у меня на руках бумажка от почты, где написано, что возврат произошёл по причине неполучения адресатом вовремя, мне всё больше хочется перестать отвечать ему вежливо.

    Но всё-таки чтобы действительно сделать всё, что я мог, отправил ему фотографии процесса отправки на почте, где коробка видна уже с трек-номером и подписями сотрудницы почты.

    С одной стороны, можно было бы пошутить, что купил приличные наушники за тыщу, но если вспомнить, что заказ я делал 13 апреля, а потом я ещё тратил время на беготню на почту, общение с продавцом и т.п. - звучит уже не так выгодно 🤷‍♂️

    Зато теперь могу называться коллекционером наушников.

    Теперь у меня три версии:

    - M50xBT
    - M50xBT2
    - M50x

    Для труЪ коллекции не хватает разве что только их белых версий. Хотя, кажется, там начали выпускать и другие цвета - так что буду считать, что мне не хватает только прародителей M50 :philosoraptor:
