Rich people! My stuff doesn't even have brands lol. What's a ts100? I'm wondering what kind of tip i should use, copper, lead free, etc.

PS: not Good but *Goot*. TS100 is an open source soldering iron. You can look at lazada or shopee(seijisandrei and I are from the same country). Nah man, i'm not rich. Haha!

Hello all, I recieve IEC711 today, could you please share which software use to measure respond curve?

 

[seijisandrei]

1. I use Good SE-0AG08 and Cardas Eutectic solder. Had a chance to use TRT Wonder Solder too.
2. I use the finest tip I can find for my TS100.
3. N/A
4. 2-pin socket or 2-pin male plug? 2-pin socket, SoundLink has them. They also sell 2-pin cables.

I'm using qdc type of socket which I bought @ shopee cause soudlink doesn't have that type and other aliexpress vendors doesn't have cheap shipping. As for cables, soundlink's cables are so expensive @_@

ARTA or REW

REW is free, easy to use. Also get an Apple Dongle + microphone splitter cable, it converts to digital accurately.

ARTA is more powerful and has better readable graphs(decay, impulse, step impulse, phase and Impedance) but I think as per what other people say REW is far more easy to use and set-up

So choose your poison

Those are my favorite!

Yeah. I like them because the look cool. And this is the reason why in the past, I am asking how to wire multiple drivers with only a pair of wire connected to the pins because qdc pins have the smallest pins of all female sockets, gosh.

Anyone tried these yet for cheap ear impressions? I feel covering these with a layer of wax will give perfect smoothness

I've made an interesting discovery, which is that these: https://www.mouser.ch/ProductDetail/667-ERA-8AHD100V
sound a lot better than other resistors I have. No clue what is happening. I had the same ones in 20 ohm and some generic 5% tolerance 20 ohm on reel, and when I switched the other 20 ohm to generic 5% 20 ohm my bass sounded like crap (losing texture and visceralness) instantly. Anyone know why this might be?

I have zero knowledge on these stuff. I bought a generic/unbranded ones from china. I believe these are 0603 and 1206 (https://shopee.ph/product/46314077/823268455 and https://shopee.ph/product/46314077/2397194153). But thanks to this comment I found out that mouser has an office here in our country hahaha maybe I could check this out next time.

Lmao did you actually solder 0603? You sir are a magician. I have 120% vision but can't solder 0603 because they are just too small.

no need to be a magician, I also solder 0603 and a magnifying lamp X5
