Sarcasm. The comment you replied to was being facetious. Obviously things are not going swimmingly. Use your context clues.

Why they failed is the topic of the thread, but feel free to make it about your feelings

Propaganda is a form of poison, and the flavors of propaganda fed to each generation differ

I would say probably the Spanish-American War.

Remember: the Maine was a pretense for continued expansionism.

Meanwhile, I held the unpopular opinion of finding it just right

Just threw up in my mouth a little

Yeah, if they were just running it locally off a GPU it would be cooler

Good for you! Stick to your wildly unpopular guns

It’s more than 20 years old and still widely known. What else do you call that but a classic?

I have mine set like this. Clear bass can be adjusted further down, just depends on personal taste. 400Hz is the boomy, buttery part of the range so if there’s too much boxy-ness you can turn that down judiciously. Keep in mind most musical pitch lives there too, though.

My preferences are towards a relatively flat sound so my setting reflects that

FYI, SBC-XQ should be functionally just as good as LDAC and doesn’t require nearly as much fiddling because it’s an open standard.

Makes sense, inflation and tariffs

Maybe it’s just because I’m an audio engineer so I was able to EQ them to my taste, but I love my WH-1000XM4 cans. But yeah, their studio cans are both top tier and dirt cheap. MDR-7506, they’re like $80 and generally sound like a million bucks because they’re used in basically every single recording studio as reference headphones.

Well, their TV brand is gone. Their headphones are still the top tier of consumer stuff and price-performance king for studio headphones

Yes, I am that guy. Sorry ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
