Just wanted to show this picture of how a j-cord should be worn

1000

 

Notice the shirt clip clipped some way below the j-split (which is behind my neck) and clipped high up on the left (right in the photo).  This gives sufficient play to the cable to both buds and will let you wear them as comfortably as with a Y-cord, with the added bonus that they don't dangle in front of you as much getting in the way of things when you take them off your ears.

Hmm, that looks significantly better than what HiSound tried to do with the Popular IEMS.

I still don't like J-cords though, they're too limiting IMO in which pocket you have to have your music player in...

I know how they're worn... it's just not comfortable.

I get awkard chord lengths...

Psycho-Pass has been quite the anime so far throwing out all sorts of future social technology concepts and discussion. It just needs time to really take off but so far, it's like a modern day Ghost in the Shell....which makes no sense since SAC just came out not too long ago lol.

I think you're dropping the anime for the manga is a good choice. I have read the manga, all of it, and am reading the latest saga (part 8). So for me it's just reliving all the memories that I have when I was reading the manga. It also does help a lot that they seem to think in ways too impossible for me to compare to rise above to whatever my expectations for the adaptation is. it's magic is what it is. And it does have great projection values, that's oddly enough being censored for violence...

I mean we all talk about how if the plot is good enough, the looks shouldn't matter right? That to me is absolutely untrue but it has some merits. You can't look like total butt and have no regard for the visuals because that's just silly in modern day film, tv, and animation. But if the story and everything else is on point, then we can overlook visuals. The flipside has some truth to it as well. But all and all, Shinsekai has just been a gift this season. It really is unique and brings its own flavor that you rarely see in anime.

Thank you for having voiced my opinion on it before I even woke up. tongue.gif I just think that some of you guys here have been too spoiled by shiny shiny beautiful animation and bland story-telling through too much fake beauty. I'm not saying it's you Bdawk, though.

@Shinsekai

Personally, aside from the horrendous and absolutely unwatchable animation, I thought that almost everything else (plot etc) was not very good as well, haha.

RCA inputs on amps should be as manveru said,

L  L

R R

 

instead of

L R

L R

 

I can't speak for all amps but at least most electronic equipments I have at home are like that, and I believe there is a good reason for it.

LR allows for better stacking with interconnects IMO. Though both my CDP and receiver are LLRR...
Also, what anime should I start watching tonight?

Sorry, but I still fail to see how that makes the slightest bit of sense...

What the heck is "stacking interconnects"?

is more ergonomic. It's more flexible and easier to work with. That's basically all there is to it.

better is like saying you want the headphone jack to be on the back of the amp. Well, for some people with very specific arrangements and preferences something like that might work, but for most it would most likely be a PITA.

Hey everyone,

 

Skipped over 15,000 posts, lol.

 

 

Took screenshot but I'm sure you believe me.

 

 

I love this thread but it a little time-consuming (so is watching anime) and I'm trying to run a company, which takes up more time. =P

Hey Tilpo, the Miu-tech MRB I bought from you, I've improved on it further, it is now very very close to silent without any hiss or radio-channel interference!

 

 

Plus is just sounds soooo nice, using LME49720 as the headphone driver, after trying like 20 combinations.  Now that I'm satisfied with it's sound and fixed it, what do I do now?!  Lol.

Oh and I've had around 5GB of space on my laptop for a long time which makes it pretty damn difficult to watch any anime.

 

 

So I bought a 4TB external, it is so beautiful I should cry.
