Sennheiser is a reputable audio company. Their prducts are well-built and sounds great, a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. Can't go wrong with them.

So apparently those multiple drivers earphones of a popular Chinese earphone maker KZ are "fake", they are real drivers but are not being used. It's like having a multi camera phone but only one camera is actually working.

You can't really trust these China products, I think I'll stay with non-Chinese audio equipment from now on. [emoji1751]

I remember buying an audio technica earphone with just 2 drivers and it's expensive. So when these cheap Chinese earphones pop out with 3 or more drivers I was in disbelief with their price.

This guy on Facebook are testing other models and other Chinese brands.

Is that the logitech speaker that has fake tweeter? I think someone said that there is a higher model with a real tweeter and logitech just used the same mold the manufacture the case to save on production cost. And someone mentioned that its written on the box that the tweeter is design purpose only.


With this kz issue, the drivers are real but not being used. I guess the cost of tuning these drivers together will jack the price up so they just put it in there just to be able to claim its multiple drivers.

logitech z333 says the article. on sale they can go for less than 2k and for a 2.1 setup, its a good buy and according to reviews, have decent sound as well, if one can get over the fake tweeter part

I think this would be an easy DIY though to fit a decent tweeter, plus paper capacitors as 1st order x-over network.

Edifier is the current Altic Lansing I guess, offering good sounding speakers at a reasonable price.
Gone are the Creative Labs/ Creative Works, Logitech, Labtec value offerings with decent performance.
It's mostly Bluetooth PC speakers now or soundbars that costs an arm and a leg for those decent ones.

BTT:

Used to be that you buy a full size headphone from the likes of Pioneer, Audio Technica, Shure, Philips, JVC or Sennheiser.
Then you plug it into your (now vintage) amplifier and adjust the bass/treble to your personal taste.
Today they have mostly discarded the tone control adjustment, or if there's one... it will most likely be software based.
So now if you want to get the sound you prefer, you either buy a new headphone or a new amp.
Rinse repeat until you get the sound signature you're looking for.

So instead of the tone controls, we have amp/ headphone/ op amp rolling instead to tune the sound.

outdated na daw kc ang equalizer [emoji28]

with IEMs, the type of ear tips used can affect the sound

[gearhead000]

Dinagdagan mo pa. Ear tip rolling is a thing din nga.

Been to some of these semi-futile exercises.
Sa ngayon happy na ako sa Koss Porta Pro ko with LG V20 or laptop.
Or yung Sony MDR-7506 driven by the XDuuo XD05.
Yung iba inamag na yung headband and/or yung earmuffs.

Pero iba pa rin talaga yung full discrete sound system setup (separates).

Reminds me the setup of my uncle, he got 2 large loud speakers as high as a table, then 2 bookshelf speakers hanged above his setup. Then and equaliser, receiver and turntable. I remember him building the speakers himself together with a carpenter for the wood. I assume his setup is not expensive and mostly sourced from Raon.

That was 30 years ago. I wonder if he still have it.

Buhay pa yung SOMIC MS300 ko, pero hindi siya foldable kaya hassle dalhin..
Bumili ako ng bago..
Baseus D02 Pro Bluetooth 5.0 HIFI Foldable - Over Ear type-C na din ang charging port, Php 1,294 lang bili ko sa official store sa Shopee.. Ok na pang office, kapag may meeting at kukuha ako ng tubig sa water station, dahil wireless dinig ko pa din ang pinag-uusapan.. Yung wireless earphones/ear buds hindi ako kumportable.. Ayaw ko may nakasalpak sa butas ng tenga ko, ayaw ko din yung may nakadagan (kaya over ear din hanap ko).. Isa pa, nakakatamad kasi mag alis ng mga gamit pang work at pang bahay.. Kaya stay lang sya sa bag..
Bawal ba sa topic na ito yung cheap brands and kung hind naman enthusiast.. Baka ma-kick ako.. [emoji16]

I'm looking for a bluetooth headphone I can use at midnight for movies. Alam nyo naman mga movies blasting volume pag action scenes pero whispering pag dialogue. My soundbar has no "voice mode".

This seems a good buy, just for the 95 hours of battery life. It seems I would only need to charge this once a month.

Anyone have tried or have bone conduction headphones? I've tested it once for a few seconds from my colleague. Audio quality is right out the window, it's like listening to the music through a wall. But the best part of it is you can still hear your environment very clear. I think that's the main reason using it, if you want to stay alert on your environment.

I'm thinking of buying one, meron sya sa lazada from 1k to 7k. I was wondering if anybody here used it and can recommend one.

Using it. Not good (for me anyway) if you listen to music. I use it for online meetings or any activity where I need to be aware of my surroundings as well (calls when I'm biking or driving). At the higher volumes you may experience a weird tingling (ngilo) or tickling sensation.

Thank you for the review.

If you wear glasses I'd suggest smart glass na lang (audio only).

Meron from Razer, Soundcore, Rayban etc.

Nung pasko the Razer Anzus were $50+ lang on Amazon.

Then just hop over to your suking optical to change out the lenses if necessary.

I've had this galaxy buds live for a couple of weeks now. Free lang naman. At first try ang nipis ng sound, naisip ko "kaya siguro free, basura tunog".

It's a bean form factor, 1st time ko gumamit ng ganito, unlike yung ibang TWS na one position lang pag lagay sa tenga, sa bean pala na a adjust sya, you need to make sure maayos ang lagay nya. After adjusting to the right fit, that's when it shines. Unlike yung usual na earphones na madalas over emphasised sa bass, this has more focus on vocals and treble, but not lacking on bass, the sound has air and not compressed since its not noise cancelling sealed fit, you can still hear your soreiunding. You can have a conversation without having to remove the beans.

I think I'm a fan of TWS that are not sealed fit now.

Just bought this headphone, Soundcore space q45. It has adaptive noise cancelling and also custom noise cancelling which can be adjusted, transparency mode can also be adjusted. It also has some EQ presets to choose from. I find the classical EQ fit for heavy metal songs.

OK naman mic noise cancelling nya sa cellphone. Although sa PC pati voice ko naka cancel, I think it's colliding with webex's noise cancelling and window's noise cancelling. I just don't know how to configure it. Kind of disappointed cause I thought I can use this for meetings. I have compared the mic quality with my cheap mpow 071 which is wired and the wired is still a lot better than bluetooth. Maybe bluetooth mic would never be as good as wired?

I've cut my wife's stockings edge and use it as ear pads cover. Halata ba? Nakaka hiya ba suot in public? [emoji23]
