LG V20 Sound Quality
Thanks for the suggestion. I have power amp and using the eq works great. But in Google play music there is no eq. Which is annoying because there was on my nexus 5. Apparently it's just disabled for some devices, like the v20. I was hoping for a system setting or something since I enjoy using...- dirkpitt45

LG V20 Sound Quality
I find the v20 minimum volume is too loud for for my JH13s. Even with the balance turned all the way down for both channels. Any suggestions for lowering the volume more?- dirkpitt45

DIY Cable Questions and Comments Thread
Tried that several times, it only works for about half a foot and then there's too much friction and the wire gets stuck. Probably just gonna order wider paracord.- dirkpitt45

DIY Cable Questions and Comments Thread
Does anyone have any ideas for threading 28awg wire through Type 1 (1.85mm) paracord? I was planning on making an IEM cable, but threading the wire through the paracord is proving to be more difficult than expected. I thought I'd be able to just super-glue the central cord to the wire, and as I...- dirkpitt45

I haven't decided yet. I have some DHC laying around, or I might try to reuse the stock JH cable that's all gross and oxidized now. I really like how the cables with red sleeving look...- dirkpitt45

DIY Cable Questions and Comments Thread
How thick of sleeving would you guys recommend for an iem cable? I was looking at this: http://www.moddiy.com/products/Deluxe-PET-PP-Cotton-Braided-Sleeving-%28Red-4mm%29.html But I'm not sure if 4mm would be too thick.- dirkpitt45

JH Audio JH-13 PRO impressions thread
Got my Jh13s finally! Reshelled by inEarz Love them, they sound awesome. Only complaint is that they're a bit too sensitive. I have my zuneHD on volume 1 and it's almost too loud. Probably end up getting a impedance cable or something eventually.- dirkpitt45

Cosmic Ears - new CIEM company with great prices (including Hybrid designs!)
^ I'd like to know if they still offer the micros as well. Does anyone have any thoughts on the BA3 compared to the Alclair reference? They're the same price, but Alclair is in NA so shipping would be quicker.- dirkpitt45

Keyboard-Fi
I just got a ducky shine with reds and I love it. Really a pretty big step up from the logitech illuminated I've been using for the past three years. Does anyone know if there's a shortcut to permanently enable the FN key? I know on most laptops there's a combination of ctrl+fn+alt or numlock...- dirkpitt45

The Official Dota 2 Thread
I've been in the beta for a while now. Wanted to like it, but I just can't seem to get into dota2 at all. Probably 200ish games of DOTA2 played now. I've got about 2k games played on LoL, been playing that since beta as well. LoL is basically my favourite online game so I may be a bit biased...- dirkpitt45

Dare I say Caring is Sharing
Quote: I agree with the rest of your points mostly, but this one. It doesn't make much sense. Traditional renewable energy sources (wind, tidal, solar) do not remove energy from the "natural weather cycle". You aren't so much extracting energy as you are harnessing it, putting it to...- dirkpitt45

Any anime series that you've been enjoying?
I just finished up Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood and it was great. One of my favourites now. I've also been watching Guilty Crown on and off, I'm a few episodes behind now though. Sometimes it great, other times it's really meh.- dirkpitt45

Does anyone know specifically which drivers the NFB-12 uses? On windows7. I've had nothing but trouble with it on my desktop lately. It'll randomly stop playing, then not start again till I switch USB ports and the drivers start running again. It also won't work right away when I turn on my...- dirkpitt45

Sennheiser Twins Help!
1. I wouldn't say the hd600s offers more detail, might just be easier to pick out the finer points since there's less mid-bass. 2. Can't help with that, haven't heard either. 3. I would say yes, it offers a slightly better "critical" listening experience due to the aforementioned...- dirkpitt45

Sennheiser Twins Help!
I've got both at the moment still trying to decide which one I like more. I'm pretty sure my HD600 is the older "darker" version though, since it doesn't have the silverish foam like the HD650s. I don't listen to much classical, just the occasional song now and then that pops up in my...- dirkpitt45

Samsung Galaxy S Thread
If my captivate wasn't on a network I wouldn't carry it around at all. It's big and the battery life is laughable compared to dedicated pmps. The zune hd is a fantastic device, only reason I don't carry it around is because of my captivate though. But for 100$ you can't really go wrong...- dirkpitt45

The unofficial Skyrim thread.
Completely agree with Beamthegreat; the graphics are horrible imo. Compared to The Witcher 2, which is similar in style to Skyrim, it looks like they're a generation apart.
