random letters my bro.

it's mean to be anonymous 😉

I don't even check my own comment history

>Wtf good is that to the Chinese military?

it answer the question, are Americans stupid?

answer: yes

>“Smart Pipe (TM) is a registered sex offender.”

cool, I'm a registered sex defender myself.

hahahah it might be as well the reasons behind kidney stones aren't fully understood still, some people may develop them without any history of previous disease's or family members affected by it.

if skipping milk reduce his symptoms (or at least works as a placebo), all the power to him!

doesn't use e-ink technology which last far in battery perfomance.

ohh would you care to elaborate more on the matter? or to provide additional links to that info? sounds really interesting and sounds as apple it's starting to struggle for real this time to compete with the rest of the phone market I'm happy that this time they're going with improving battery life first BUT if they start to lag too far behind the rest of the competition, people will start to mock apple more and more

why should you? 99% of modern phones nowadays look the same, same candybar design with the exception of foldable phones.

you're on your lucky day bro, that's exactly the model that I got. and indeed, I've got both the porta pros and the ksc75s and can tell you that definitely koss wanted to play it safe with these IEMs because they got a sound profile really similar that those headphones, they're more similar to the porta pros than the ksc75s tho.

>no average consumer will ever spend thousands on headphones.

they don't because apple or other mainstream company hasn't had the balls to charge thousands for headphones, but people are absolutely fine with paying a premium and beign overcharged, it gives them status

>no average consumer will ever spend thousands on headphones.

they don't because apple or other mainstream company hasn't had the balls to charge thousands for headphones, but people are absolutely fine with paying a premium and beign overcharged, it gives them status

I agree with you and also do the same and plan to do the same.

sadly good smartphones aren't beign manufactured with headphones jacks anymore, there was an "outrage" of people, even regular consumers that got angry, but it was not nearly enough people to make a dent in apple sales or affect the market in any meaningful way.

wired IEMs will still exist in the future, but for a very reduced consumed market and not what were used to. I can even see chifi brands like KZ going only wireless in the future or releasing their own brand like CCA that will only focus in wireless. it will happen eventually...

>Emphasis added. Be careful when using absolute statements. We're a community of psychos that put audio fidelity (whatever that means to each of us) above everything else.

I know and I say the "only" future because there's no way around it. what are going to argue audio purist when the wireless technology finally overpass wired and is capable of reproducing music at the same fidelity if not better than wired earbuds?

also, the implementation of wireless headphones/earbuds has been very limited yet, there's tons of features that they could add but haven't, like having different factory fine tuned EQ attached to the earbud memory so users can select the one that they like the most from the get go instead of EQ themselves, or the earbuds beign able to recognize the genre that you're listening to, and changing the EQ on the go to the song that you're listening. I can see all of this and more happening in the future.

I'm going to be even more bold, wired iems are going to become soon the "dumb"phones of the headphone market. wireless WILL catch up, the arguments against it will become thinner and thinner with time, you just watch.

>it's in every possible way inferior to wired audio

yeah, it is inferior, but NOT THAT inferior, the difference it's starting to become meaningless, most people won't care about EQ, frecuencies bands, or of the earbud is made of moon rocks, they want stilish shit with easy convenience.

I'd argue that they're overpriced, you can find good pairs of Lenovo TWS earbuds in AliExpress for less than 20$, and they're genuine and as I said, good enough for most.

lmaooo I can see that happening too.

latency in cheaper wireless products it's so bad that you can't even watch a movie because voices will be out of sync with what it's beign presented on the screen. that will change tho, the technology it's getting everyday better and cheaper, it will get to a point we're even cheap wireless headphones will have an unnoticeably latency

yes, it was not an option, it was forced into people, but people liked it, so what are we gonna do? does enough people really care?

>It's not gonna be surprising at all considering the general market's gonna be looking for convenience first and foremost.

so much this.

>as long as audio companies have a say in the matter, as well as tech companies in general

uhmmm I disagree, most big headphones companies are getting bought out by even bigger tech companies, and these companies don't give a damn, they will produce whatever it's more popular with people, and push what it makes more money, in this case, wireless products. I don't think we're going to see any audio company defending wired products at all, if anything they will be ditching them "in silence" while they pretend that they still care for that reduced market (they don't lol)

DAMMMnnnn!!!

there's a fair share of people here or other forums that are in absolute denial, and refuse to believe that wired headphones/IEMs are beign replaced and soon be "outdated" tech.

this has happened a lot of times in different markets.

remember when people were saying that notebook/laptops weren't going to replace stationary computers at the home-use market? well they did

remember when. people were saying that smartphones weren't going to replace "dumb" feature phones or computers for the average consumer? well they did

it's has happened over and over and over, and now it will happen to headphones too, just watch how soon wired becomes a thing of the past.

it's a matter of preference, I also have an studio/monitor pair of headphones and don't use them too much nowadays, I mostly use them when I watch movies/play games, or when I'm so high that I actually want to listen and enjoy to my music with my whole attention. everything else, I go with wireless...

I argue the other way around, I think hifi speaker systems are good and all that, but i still prefer headphones because I feel as I can listen to way more detail and isolate myself from outside noises. also you need to invest big bucks in hifi speakers if you want to match the detail of headphones 🤷

are u me

btw I don't mind deodorant or socks, I actually grateful of that so I don't have to buy them myself lmao
