  • Huh, I’m using technology as an escape from woodworking. Lack of space/tools and a few times when I tried to do something the wood was too seasoned (last thing I tried was whittling hoping to do it in my room anytime and not have dust as an issue, cheap folding knife probably didn’t help)

    Well not fully true on the escape part, I just drop things really easy when I run into issues like that. Well that and I haven’t done anything noteworthy with technology or woodworking.



  • I tried a cheap pair and my takeaway is that this technology needs a specific amount of contact pressure, and with no mechanism to assure this (do the “name brand” ones have something?) a poor fit means it doesn’t work at all and then if you fiddle with the position you can get something that basically turns your ear canal into a speaker (at least it doesn’t seem like it’s actually going direct, at least for most of the sound).

    Also using a headphone amplifier, loudness normalization is an issue especially as certain content clips while some doesn’t. This one probably directly relates to cost.
