the fact the chord increased the volume by 100 times over the ipod (a step of 10 decibels is 10x louder than the previous step, so 20db is 10x louder than 10db) just shows how insane that thing is

@TheSpok66

2 жыл бұрын

This is most likely false in this case. There is a difference between the sound pressure level and the perceived volume which are both measured in db (it’s confusing, don’t ask me why it’s measured like this, everyone is confused by it). Most (free) apps show you the perceived volume measured in db where 20 db are a 10 fold increase. So in this case the volume would be 10 times as loud and not 100 times.

@TimpBizkit

Жыл бұрын

@@TheSpok66 perceived volume usually doubles every 10 decibels, although four times as loud as an ipod is pretty screaming loud!! I listened to an ipod on top whack on a loud song and I got hearing fatigue pretty quickly. Doubling that twice you're probably approaching ear tickling volume (120 dBA) if you have powerful earphones, which will definitely wear your ears out very quickly. Although the real purpose of this amp is driving inefficient headphones loud, rather than trying to set the SPL world record on IEM and Sensitive cans.

@thebaker8637

@@TheSpok66 It’s because the decibel is just a unit used to compare ratios of very big and very small numbers. The idea is that each additional 10 DECIbels (deci = 10) *always* corresponds to 10x of the quantity you are comparing. The confusion is in *what* you're comparing. The OG use case for decibels was to compare electric power in telegraph equipment: for anything to do with signal strength in audio chains, an extra 10 dB specifically means a 10:1 change of the the strength of the signal in the cable connected to the speaker/microphone. For decibels to make sense, always think electrical power. When we measure a +20 dB change, what this simply means is "the latter signal made 100x more power in the microphone wires". That's it. The confusion arises because 100 times more power in the microphone does not mean the air was moving 100x harder. In fact, to move air twice as hard, you need 2*2=4 times the power, and to move air 10 times as hard, you need 10*10=100 times more power. Therefore, a change of +20 dB corresponds to a power ratio of 100x (which is the definition of dB) between the electrical impulses in the wire, which was produced by an airwave 10x as strong. As it turns out, perceived loudness does not equal air pressure either. In fact, 10 times as much power (+10 dB) only produces *twice* the perceived loudness, and 100 times as much power (+20 dB) will give you 4 times the loudness. Therefore, the +20 dB difference in the app corresponds to, by definition, a 100x increase in power, which creates an approximately 10x increase in pressure waves emitting from the nugget, and a 4x change in perceived loudness. Given that the iPod has a 60 mW amplifier, the Chord was outputting 6W, which is about right considering the max rated output of the mojo is 5.3W RMS.

Impedance and sensitivity are not exactly the same. Lower impedance gets its volume by extracting more power out of the same amplifier (until it reaches the minimum the amp can safely handle without overheating). Whereas sensitivity measured on a milliwatt basis is about conversion of power to sound (some manufacturers use 1 volt RMS sensitivity where power varies with impedance) Those tinny sounding piezoelectric earphones in the "worst earbuds" video are actually pretty sensitive, but don't get that loud off a player because the impedance is about 2000 ohms, but their current draw is low and can work on crystal radios, they just need a high voltage low current source. Regular earphones need a transformer to work with a crystal radio to boost the current by lowering the voltage. My Sennheiser HD25 are pretty loud for 64 ohms, and louder than some 32 ohm cans and 46 ohm in ears I have, though I think the old 16 ohm sony buds are more efficient if in properly. My most efficient headphones are actually a pair of Olympus voice recorder earbuds I glued to a bent coat hanger to hold them in sideways. They are very uncomfortable by pushing on my ear canal and are really boomy in the mid bass and lower mids (can get them to sound good with EQ) but my golly do they get stinking loud off of just a laptop. I haven't tried them with an amp up loud as I don't think my ears would survive haha. Another note about impedance is that plugged into a stereo that uses a series resistor to the speaker amp, higher impedance headphones can actually be louder up to a certain point. This is because a higher impedance gets a larger voltage share with the series resistor, so for some value (actually equal to the series resistor), the headphones get maximum power. Also the frequency response can be different due to differing impedances receiving power in different proportion than when connected to an amp with negligible series resistance.

The analogy to the gaming analogy is actually really on point.

These have focus on the midrange imo and are just OK for the price they're in (below $70). They don't have comfy pads though, even though I personally like M40Xs.

Thanks so much I've been wanting to get into this for a while

Is it bad that when I get excited about tech I find myself using your accent. Love it and your content!

Totally agree with the Fiio amp DAC, I have the old BTR3 paired up to my DT770PRO's (32ohm version), just clipped to the metal, (with a little protection), nothing beats them.

by far the best dank pods video to date. i adore this and keep coming back to this video.

Best part 8:45 : "Wait, that's not what your dog looks like? But that's the dog they sold me..." Bless Frank!

imagine bringing the mojo onto the airplane blasting movies into your ears, possibly becoming deaf Edit: I have a better idea Put them all into one chain and then blow out your eardrums.

Yes! Finally a way to go deaf and bankrupt at the same time! And as a bonus feature, on a plane as well! Brilliant!

I was looking around for the blue/black Sony MDRs and was really sad when I went back and realised they're custom - they look so awesome

Can't wait to try out the Fiio BTR5 with my new Meze 99 Neo, my first audiopile headphone and DAC. Thank you very much for the great videos

Sometimes I am thankful for the YT algorithm - this is the 30th video I've watched of you and I just now noticed I'm still not subscribed

Good luck Cam! I know the vibe...

I wouldn't be surprised if someone already said this, but that Lightning to 3.5mm adapter at 7:10 actually has a DAC in it. Similar USB-C adapters contain DACs as well. There's no standard as far as I know to pass analog audio through either of these connectors, so an external DAC is necessary.

You are a freaking gem. Keep the good stuff rolling, man.

@@maxklassen254 you might want to invest in a more powerful amp bc he said it's just pushing it to acceptable levels. I have it and even with the more powerful 2.5 mm balanced port i just wish it could be louder.

so like, this one time

My phone has a 4K screen and a REALLY good DAC! It has Hi-Fi quad, surround sound. and a lot of customization for the equalizer. And sound through the jack is REALLY good! It is the best sound I have ever heard though anything honestly.

I keep browsing through all of these videos and I gotta say, ending Frank clips are what keep me watching to the end instead of moving on. So, that's really good for viewer engagement stats?

true the dac scaling is more interesting

I appreciate you more than you know. You are the reason why I have a pair of hurr durr 650's. Thanks

Digital to Alalog Converter. The Aussie is coming out

this is honest to god my favorite channel on this website.

I was in the middle of writing a comment about how that fiio didn't have a usb c variant and he comes in clutch with the ibasso right as I was about to send it. Good man.

Damnit Dankpods, you madlad have done it again! I've bought the Fiio after watching this video. And man, you weren't overselling this thing at all. I've bought this bad boy along a pair of Hifiman Sundaras... My first ever open back planar magnetic headphones... and I cranked it up to Lady Gaga's Starstruck... It's punchy, it's precise, it sounds so natural. It's a DELIGHT!!! I tell you, the way you tell stories and talk about music and Hi-Fi gear speaks to me as if we are best buds across the big pond. I love it every time I tune in to this channel!

Figured I'd give you an update and talk about the crazy shenanigans I'm doing with my equipment... Maaaan, this rabbit hole just keeps going. I started using the BTR5 as a DAC for my Oculus Quest 2, a frickin' VR headset... And I had to discover that this isn't the best use I can make off of these. The signal is limited by what's transmitted over the compressed video stream while the DAC is a greedy bastard in terms of battery power. Even with a powerbank attached I have to use a USB-C splitter that doesn't allow quick charge... Meh. You quickly realize the screen and motion controls get the most love here while everything else is just an afterthought. So, I asked myself "what if I separate the audio from the video?" And that's where it dawned on me. Enter the FiiO BTA30 Pro, a Bluetooth TRANSMITTER! It's compatible to both PC and game consoles although I didn't test the latter. I paired it to the BTR5 and enabled TX mode and now I can choose between all the codecs including LDAC and AptX LL for low latency High-Res audio... A wireless DAC for everything that's got USB or optical/coaxial output AND input, so if you got an old Hi-Fi Receiver you can use it to give it an interface for Spotify or whatever. It's an amazing package for the money. Alright, fanboying over...

Sleep can wait. I anticipate every DankPods video like my own birthday.

12:47 best transition ever

This video introduced me to the BTR5 and it changed my life. I take that thing EVERYWHERE with me and I'm gifting to all (well, the special ones) my friends on their birthdays 😅

Not sure about the audio but I had no idea that I was missing out on your videos for this long.. 😂 Man... what a great video.. 👍

Loved your energy, subbed for that. Really interesting to watch the full review haha.

I love how this is like a cross of Technology Connections topic explanation mixed with an almost product review thanks to that Fiio. Good stuff!

Well put!

So…. I got my first amp/dac today, I opted for Le Fiio BTR3K, I don’t have what I want yet, but surprisingly, it took my Crushers and the results were nice, it made the hapto bass not overkill and the sounds were tamed nicely too, cant wait to get the 2.5mm adapter, nor can I wait for my DT770s with some more fanciness 😉

Just ordered my a BTR5. I already have the astounding KZ ZSN and ZSN Pros before I even watched Dankboy. Super excited

I used to use Grados for music production when I lived at home and couldn't use my rp8s. They certainly made mixing down a lot easier, but ultimately just proved to me that my shit mixes were nothing but my own fault. Then my dog ate them which meant using crappy boosted headphones and provided me a good excuse for those shitty mixes again 👍
