As someone who used to be in to audiophilia, debates on sound quality of equipment and the supposed night and day differences are an incredible exercise in futility and purchase justification. Smoke some cannabis and $5 earbuds fed by a no-name MP3 player will deliver more detail than the custom modded Sennheisers fed by an amp and DAC stack imported from a boutique in Belgium would have gotten you otherwise.
- LiseWeiss 13y agoDo you actually smoke weed ever? That's the wrongest thing I've ever heard. Smoke weed and now you can hear just how bad those shit earphones are, and just how much better the $500 earphones are. I've done this experiment about 100 times with half a dozen people and the results are always the same. Weed makes shit headphones less tolerable, not more tolerable.
- frou_dh 13y agoI'm ecstatic to be regarded the wrongest ever by someone still interested in lambasting "shit" sound equipment rather than just listening to music.
- LiseWeiss 13y agoyeah you know so much about me. I'm not lambasting shit sound equipment. I'm lambasting YOU for being WRONG. And I'm providing helpful information based on actually taking the pepsi challenge while high on "cannabis" as you put it (I've never met an actual weed smoker who calls it cannabis so I can tell you're not much of one). If you want to make terrible gear feel good, drink alcohol. That actually does help. But it's not because you're hearing it better... it's because your senses are impaired.
