The first few units of the L30 had issues, Topping recalled all of them and permanently fixed the problem. The L30 II is just a minor upgrade so you can get a L30 if it's cheaper without worry.

The FiiO K5 for example is kinda bad. In general, FiiO doesn't always make the best products, although plenty are fine.

Oh you definitely should, they just restocked recently. I dropped by last week to try the new ATH-TWX9 and some audeze cans (MM-500, LCD-X). Awesome place, great owner.

I'm always intrigued by this because I can't even take phone calls through IEMs (as I can't hear myself speak and it's very distracting). So I presume the musician can hear everything including their own voice without any noticeable delay?

They are very good, but also my issue apart from the noise floor is the noisy cable. They are really that good sound wise though

Thanks for the info. FYI Xbox controller is not Bluetooth when connected to the system it’s a low latency 2.4ghz connection that is better then Bluetooth provides.

I think I'll go with the first option, thank you

Black metal bands gotta get their positive affirmations somehow! Can't be ÀLL doom and gloom.....

I think I have it on stereo but I remember seeing a virtual surround option that I considered using but I'm was sure.

If your controller is the wireless version then it uses Bluetooth.

Neither the output of a gaming laptop or a controller are particularly 'good' so that's the reason there's no difference.

I thought the GX could split mic audio and game audio, so you'd plug the mic into your controller and the headphones into an amp. If not, then a cheap lapel mic will be of a similar or sometimes better quality than the one on the gx so that can be plugged into the controller and clipped to the headphone wire.

I'd still recommend one of the Bluetooth audezes as it's much less hassle for anyone looking for a clutter free set up. The GX is more for people that already have a nice amp and dac set up for running headphones and just want a dedicated gaming headphone.

It’s an S6 lite

.... huh?

Yeah. 100%. Sometimes, after playing a couple of heavier uptempo songs in a row, i just need to listen to someone pretending to brush my hair and whispering affirmations in my ear to get myself in the mindset for playing a softer, slower song. Ya know?

If there's some kind of accessible bootloader/debug port, maybe, but it'd be a lot of work and you'd probably need to obtain the developer documentation/toolchain for whatever DSP they're using - likely not readily available to random individuals (and probably all in Chinese).

Depending on the chip they use, the firmware could also be mask ROM like ye olde video game cartridges and unmodifiable.

Real time monitoring.

Opss, my bad :(

I wouldn't say fantastic with all the broken hinge pictures you can find on reddit...

You might like its frequency response very much, but there's absolutely nothing groundbreaking about it. It's just another $20 IEM, much like the Chu was just another $20 IEM. Technicalities existing is not something that can even be debated.

I'll give you the first point. Chu was garbage, Quarks were pretty good, Quarks DSP are even better than that.

And lmao cope harder.

Just ships to Canada & USA :(

Thank you 🙏

Thanks for sharing your story. Really puts into perspective how important it is to remain grateful for our time here, and what you have available to you.

Keep strong fam!

This is a whole lot of words to say you know nothing about audio or the technology behind it, lmao.
