    Whisky (or Whiskey) Fi

    A whiskey buff friend and I organized a 10 part blind tasting and what we both chose as our favorite was Old Grand-dad Bonded, about $20 a bottle. Produced by Jim Beam. I think buffalo trace is one of the best values in whiskey. It's high end brother Blantons is my favorite bourbon but it's a...

    What’s your favorite 2ch speaker pair currently?

    I’ve had a pair of JBL L7s that I have used as my fronts for about 20 years. Since then I bought a pair of L5s for surrounds and a single L1 bookshelf for the center. More interested in music (especially multi-channel) than movies. Also have a pair of PSA V1500 subs to round out 5.2 set up. The...

    Best IEM tips?

    I’m trying to find foam tips that fit the GuideRay iems. They say they are a 3.3 mm nozzle, and I’m having no luck finding any that are for that specific size. They’re all larger. Anyone seen anything that might work for me out there?

    Desk mic

    I have been using a Sennheiser UC 1 for a while now with great results. However, I am looking for a sensitive desk mic that I might be able to speak to with about the same low volume with the same accuracy but without having to wear a headset. I work in a quiet private office with at most a...

    Kojima's Death Stranding

    This game has some of the most confusing menus and interface designs, Japanese devs never make it easy don't they. I gotta say, the gameplay loop is getting boring for me now after 5 hours, it's just not exciting to deliver utterly random crap to utterly random peeps just for Likes. I hope the...

    Which headphones do you use for PC gaming?

    I purchased a set of Corsair HS70 Wireless 7.1 for my son, and he likes them. I think they're a bit heavy (330g). Can't say how they work with glasses, but my son has a large head (XXL hat size) and that's not a problem. Compatible with PC and PS4.

    PS 4 controller on PC

    Does anyone use a PS4 controller on PC? Can you check your battery status on PC or does it only work on PS4?

    Gaming mouse for large/big hands?

    I use a Mionix Avior 7000. Mionix makes some quality mice but they usually put crappy sensors in them. For the 7000 series though, they used top-notch ones. I have had it for 4 years and have not had the slightest problem with it, the software it uses for customization is also very light and...

    Best game soundtrack?

    Activision had lots of cool music in their games right around that time. Mechwarrior 2 had a good martial-themed score, I recall. Some of my favorite game music came from throwaway titles like FXFighter and Darklight Conflict. I still have MP3s of some of the songs from those games floating...

    Are you a console or PC gamer?

    I play on PS4 now. Simply cant keep up with all the pc hardware changes. Not to mention the costs. If I had to choose, and money was no object, I would go for pc gaming. I miss fiddling with the mouse.

    Nintendo switch.. still worth it?

    Not worth it if you don't like Nintendo games like Zelda and Mario because those are really the good ones really.
