Godzilla Minus One was a good movie. Not only because SFX that puts Hollywood bloat to shame, but it had an actual story. Jan 11, 2024

      Modi2U 4399 vs 4490 : for gaming probably better to get the cheaper one.

        Probably overkill...

        I'd say it really depends on the game, and how conscious you are of the sounds/music while you're playing. Some games really emphasize sound being part of the atmosphere (e.g., Hollow Knight, Transistor). Many others it's just sorta... there unless you make an effort to hear it.

        So how much time do you spend actually LISTENING while playing? Just my $0.02.

        That is probably why I feel it is worth it to purchase a dac for gaming. I prefer to "experience" games more than just playing it through. I usually play games many times through. Sounds are big part of that...

        Not very high on my to do list at the moment, because that will mean I have to redo the case too.

      So I bought another pair of Crossfade M-100 for general purpose usage. After the HD650 the only cans I have ever bought twice.

        Yeah, I know...I use these for fun. Mostly because of it's gaming accesories and portability. Having owned most of the competitors, I keep coming back to them.

        Then they must do something really well. If I have to buy another Brainwavz HM5, I will have no doubts. The same with my K181 DJ (I already have a spare one). I liked the Crossfade's design and construction. Never bought one as no one could personally recommend one...

        I suggest you try to demo one, at some point. Their tuning is not for everyone. Kind of like a guilty pleasure.

        Call it a minor aspect of an otherwise great film. If you have not watched BR2049, go watch it. It is worth the 2 plus hours of piecing together a beautiful puzzle.

        I will probably wait for the Blu-ray version, then watch them back to back. @Pyruvate , I watched the original quite a long time ago, good eye though! @Deep Funk. The dutch actress was excellent, never seen her before.

        Have to say, it's one of those films that is so visually stunning/beautiful, it's definitely worth seeing on the big screen.

        I've always used priority and haven't had an issue. But I never use normal post even in state. I'm neurotic and have to have a tracking number

      I'm doing the equivalent of an ear squint to pick up the nuances. Is better or just different. Is it worth the money?

        I am just curious about these cards. They are still selling them and they are pretty close to 13 years old. Must be doing something right...

        When I got my card, which was maybe 2002-ish, it was already obsolete and being sold at about half price... and a hundred uk pounds was *still* a huge amount of money to spend on a sound card! But not as much as Lynx, which was probably nearer a thousand of those pounds even then.

        Analogue i/o and optical digital i/o. With a tape-switching box, a couple of tape decks and a mini-disk it all combined with my PC as a fairly complex record-anything to anything-else setup.

        And first off was the experience... "Huh? This sounds better than my Cyrus CD player!"
