    Flare Isolate Pro - Shure tips?

    Hi, I'm not sure if this is the best forum to ask this (so happy to move the question elsewhere). I'm thinking of getting the Flare Audio Isolate Pro "in ear" earplugs but the largest tip they come with (or that can be purchased) is too small for me. The Flare Audio tips are 13mm wide at the...

    i-Fi SPDIF iPurifier impressions

    Hi,   My SPDIF iPurifier has worked perfectly for 5 months but suddenly today it stopped working. All the LEDs are correctly lit so power getting to it doesn't seem to be an issue. But nothing is coming out of the RCA output. I then disconnected the iPurifier and just used the coax cable on...

      Just bear in mind that for people incredibly sensitive to it, the actual mathematical amount by which audio and video are not in sync is not so much the issue as the degree of annoyance it causes. If it causes a viewer to either lose interest in the production they are watching or causes...

    Well yes, I guess that would be correct since I can see the difference between 40 and 50 millseconds. However, I am actually able to tolerate the lack of fine adjustment meaning that it can still be "out" by 5 ms and I am not too distracted. So long as I can get absorbed "into" the program I am...

    Sennheiser RS 165, RS 175, RS 185, RS 195 - Impressions thread

    OK, just tried them on my Lenovo laptop watching some Netflix. The lag is really awful to my eyes / ears to the point where I can't watch it. Mind you, I cannot adjust the audio or video delay on the laptop like I can on the TV. The synchronisation is, however, perfectly fine using my CX300...

    Here is a good article on lip sync perception. Although my annoyance at it being "out" by less than 10 ms is possibly a little above average, it is also recognised to be well within human capability. Apparently humans can be sensitive to it even below 1 ms - a lag which is supposed to be only...

    I'm not using bass boost (I hate excessive bass). I just checked with LG support and the adjustability of my 2014 model Smart TV apparently goes from the sound being 50 milliseconds ahead of the video (effectively video delay) to 150 milliseconds behind the video (audio delay). It is adjustable...

    As I pointed out, the delay has to be on account of the RS165, because plugging a set of wired headphones into the exact same jack as the RS165 reveals no lip-sync issues whatsoever  - it is exactly the same as listening via the in-built speakers - perfect. Perhaps Rosmadi can advise whether the...

    Can you officially confirm or deny  please that the RS185 pads will fit the RS165? The stock RS165 pads are arguably not a good choice for Australia where temps and humidty are higher than most other markets for these headphones. But nor did I wish to spend money on an open-backed TV headphone...

    Bought a pair of RS165 this week for TV listening only. Initial impressions were better than expected sound but also extremely distracting lip sync issues, even though plugging a wired set of headphones into precisely the same headphone jack reveals no lip sync issues at all.   Luckily...
