    Mad Lust Envy's Headphone Gaming Guide: (8/18/2022: iFi GO Blu Review Added)

    I’m looking for headphones for my Switch and PS5. I know the Switch has Bluetooth lag so prefer a set that is low latency or supports a wired input. Sound quality is very important to me and I don’t have a price budget. I’m think I prefer earbuds for the Switch and full size headphones for the...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    I got the Airpods Pro (never owned airpods prior to this) and I was immediately impressed by the ease of set up and use. Very impressive. The build quality is great except for the tips. I find the tips to feel a little cheap and a little tough to get off (I feel like I am going to rip them)...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    I expect some surprise and disappointment as far as sound quality goes, however, it is the ease of use and integration that will win me over. I have Sony WH-1000XM2 for plane rides so the Airpods will be for on the move music listening, phone calls, etc. I also constantly switch between devices...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    I will be picking up the Airpod Pros tomorrow. I also have an order in for MW07+ but I might have to cancel if the Airpods impress me enough

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    What is the consensus on the new MW07 lineup? I have been holding out on Wireless headphones (mostly because I do not want to purchase airpods) and so far nothing has fit the bill (cough Sony call quality issues)

    Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming

    I will give it a try as well. I am not expecting to hear that much difference in my Volvo XC90 w/ Bowers & Wilkins via Carplay. I will give it a more deep test on my home equipment. I am rooting for Tidal but it is always nice to save money.

    Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming

    What is the consensus so far of Tidal vs Amazon HD? I mostly use Tidal for music at home and while driving via android auto/car play for lossless music in my car. It works really well. It sounds Amazon is worth a try, but I believe I saw something about its streaming algorithm needs work in the...

    Mac OS X Music Players - alternatives to iTunes

    Great info. Plex just released Plexamp (a winamp inspired player). Curious to see how this performs. https://medium.com/plexlabs/introducing-plexamp-9493a658847a https://www.plex.tv/blog/plex-labs/

    Mac OS X Music Players - alternatives to iTunes

    What's the word on Plex for Mac? It appears to be to Direct Playing but tough to tell if it is manipulating the signal at all. As a Mac, Plex and Tidal user. What is my best player option? I know Roon is the answer but that is too much $$$$$$$

    DACs that are on the same level as the Dacmini CX

    I currently only use my Dacmini CX as a dac, so I've decided to go down the road of selling the Dacmini and acquiring a dedicated DAC that is equal or better in performance. I would love some recommendations.

    Chromecast audio - can anyone comment on sound quality?

      Right. Any idea why I can still control the volume via plex on my phone? Is plex acting as a pre-amp somehow? Plex says it is doing direct play

    Chromecast audio - can anyone comment on sound quality?

    When hooking up the chromecast via optical to a DAC, I don't see the dynamic compression setting anymore. Is that normal? Is there anyway to confirm that audio is not being resampled?   Currently I am using plex on my iphone to cast flac audio, but oddly, I can still control the volume from my...

    Grado RS1i Impressions thread

    I know! I know! I can't believe I am doing it. Maybe no one will want them and I will HAVE to keep them
