    Listing Pronouns Online

    I just came across this (I am a cisgender male). In light of reading this, I’ve added TDoR to my phone’s calendar (November 20) and I am updating all my socials with my pronouns. I encourage all cis people reading this to do the same. As the article says, cisgender people telling others what...

    Would using a resistor adapter w/ headphones have an effect on SQ?

    I am a noob with a noob question. I just stumbled upon this thread. I'm intrigued by the idea of using a resistor adapter to raise the impedance-level of a pair of headphones. Would that have any detrimental effect on the headphone's sound signature? Let's obviously assume a sufficiently...

    Have there been any latency studies?

    Hello there Head-Fiers!, I was curious if there have been any studies conducted to determine how much latency a bluetooth connection must have before the average person will notice a lag. Unsynchronized lip movement during dialogue in movies being an example. Have any studies of this sort been...

    Do Razer or Turtle Beach make quality headsets?

    Hello! I was just wondering if either Razer or Turtle Beach make quality gaming headsets. I'm in the market for my first ever pair, so I don't know who's good and who isn't. I know both Razer and Turtle Beach make a lot of sales, but that definitely isn't a sure sign of quality. Thank you, Alec

    Which pair of noise-canceling headphones do you recommend?

    Hello! I am in the market for a pair of noise-canceling headphones (I moved into a new apartment with noisy upstairs neighbors). I have heard in the past that the Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones are widely considered to be the best pair of noise-canceling headphones money can buy. Is this still the...

    Would any Bluetooth headphones work as a gaming headset for Xbox One?

    Hello! Would any pair of Bluetooth headphones function as a gaming headset for my Xbox One? I am specifically wondering if the microphone functionality should work.

    The "Dude Flick" Movie Club

    I have decided to tweak the focus of this thread a little. Even before creating this thread, I toyed with the idea of creating this "dude flick movie club" as I call it, in which people can post their favorites and also discuss all things dude flick related. I know that Head-Fi already has a...

    EDIT: The focus of this thread has been changed from the 770s to the 880/990 Editions. Please disregard the poll that I was unable to edit accordingly. I apologize if this question has already been answered somewhere, but do the DT 770 Pro 80 ohm version seem to pair better with tube amps or...

    Anybody here into analogue photography?

    I've never owned a real camera a day in my life, so forgive me if any of the terms used in this post are not correct. I've recently been thinking that trying photography might be fun. Rather than learning how to use a digital camera though, I think I'd like to learn how to use an analogue...

    https://www.macrumors.com/2017/09/15/apple-flac-playback-4k-apple-tv-iphone-7-8-x/ Apple has apparently quietly added support for FLAC playback to some of its devices. Could this mean that we will see lossless music streaming in Apple Music?

    How should I transfer vinyl music to iTunes?

    Hello, I am thinking about possibly purchasing a turntable so that I can start buying records to transfer to iTunes as digital files because I prefer the warmth of vinyl over digital music. Also, I like the pops in vinyl; I think it adds character to the music. I don't think I would use the...

    What is a dependable tower PC manufacturer?

    Hello Head-Fiers, what is a dependable manufacturer of tower PCs? I think I've seen a lot of businesses/schools using Dell, if I remember correctly. Are they onto something? I think, at some point, I would like to purchase a modular tower PC, because it seems to me that that would be cheaper...

    Custom-tipped SE215s don't have much sound isolation

    I've been using the Sensaphonics custom sleeves for my Shure SE215s for several months now and am a little disappointed with how little sound they block. Is it because the sleeves are made of silicone? Actual CIEMs are made from a different material, aren't they? I can't afford (or justify...

    Does the Echo Dot sound better than the iPhone 6?

    Hello everyone. I was wondering if, from a subjective point of view, the Echo Dot sounds better and gets louder than the speaker on the iPhone 6. I imagine that it does, but I wanted to make sure before I purchase one. Thank you.
