5 months agoIm no audiophile but here are my takes
For powered bookshelf speakers : either presonus eris 4.5 (with or without bt) or edifier r1700bt but mostly leaning to presonus, i went with edifier since presonus was priced almost double in my country.
Here’s a good sample of these speakers
As much as I want to agree to this, a part of me screams “STOP FANBOYING CORPORATIONS”
Lemme tell you a short story about bait and switch
We all know that android is a collaboration of companies to have an open handset ecosystem (which is weird, because these are companies driven for profit)
one of these companies is quallcomm, they were so nice that they released an open source “bridge” for devs to thier hardware called codeauroraforums
Thier marketshare grew and the performance of thier hardware were miles ahead the competition
Then it came when these “subpar” and cheaper semicons caught up on thier performance and also…covid happened
it shrank quallcomms earnings, made them to make some “decisions” and one of them is killing codeauroraforums, switched thier “opensource” stuff to codelinaro in which, all of the hardware supported are devkits of thier struggling snapdragon x
In addition to these decisions to increase earnings, they also made a deal with microsoft to make laptop chipsets (just like what apple did. Unfortunately, barebone windows on arm is different from windows on snapdragon unlike apple with thier walled garden wherein they’ve designed thier chips inhouse)
now they’re finger pointing who’ll support that thing, lmao
So…uhm…yea, stop fanboying corporations and thank you for listening to my ted talk
btw AMD is cool with linux…for now
