In areas where there aren't good words to describe something (like in sensory subjects that describe an experience and not hard science) a consensus lexicon is sometimes established to moor conversations in something that could approach a shared understanding. But in audio, it's... rough. though at this point most audiophiles are just fumbling for words that'd sound good in a wine review Mr. Mercury fucked around with this message at 17:55 on Jan 3, 2023 |

Oh, I was more referring to the random channel death, but the 2020 pads are much improved from the old ones e. if it hasn't happened within a year you're probably fine fwiw Mr. Mercury fucked around with this message at 08:36 on Mar 7, 2023 |

I tend to get ear infections easy so I tend toward speakers at home as well. It's a nice thing to have around but not everybody wants that
