    So i had the Nuraphones for 3 years, and they just gave out after i used them moderately. At the beginning i predicted that they would break at the part that goes in your ear, and thats exactly what happened. There are extremely tiny wires that connect to the ear bud pieces that are inside the ear cup, the wires fatigued, and shorted over time and eventually disconnected completely turning treb function off for my right ear. Disappointingly the wires are SO small i couldnt even repair it if i tried. I loved the sound that came from these headphones aswell as the very large battery capacity, but unfortunately i will be giving some other pair a shot next headphone round. The proprietary charge cable also sucks $20 for a new one if you lose it (which i did many times)

    Some tidbits as a guy who's owned these for about a year:
    * They are user serviceable!! You can twist the ear-cups off to get at the insides to replace the battery and what have you. You will need a soldering iron for that.
    * The secure clip thing for the cables is actually pretty useful. Not for something yanking the cable as much as it gradually loosening over time from you moving around. It's also easy to not lose it since it can clip into the wires on top of the cups.
    * They aren't the most comfortable, but they do have some funky tricks to make it better. Those little holes along the ridge of the cups are apparently tesla valves that create airflow inside, air comes in from the bottom and out the top. They certainly don't get too warm.

  • @nickterry4487
    @nickterry4487 2 роки тому +30

    Nuraphone had a booth on the SXSW trade floor in Austin a few years ago. I thought they sounded "immersive" and all but the thing is they had the headphones paired to their app and you could only play music from a small sample of songs in the app. Any audio engineer out there knows that you can make a specific song sound great in your speakers or headphones but as soon as you listen through another set of speakers it can sound awful. And also to that point, audio engineers and audiophiles typically have a go to song that they know really well sonically and so listening to that song on new headphones lets them know how the headphones are manipulating the sonic qualities of the song. Anyways...my main point was that to me it seemed a little deceptive because those handful of tracks could have been meticulously tailored to sound extra good on the nuraphones. In front of a group of people I asked the nuraphone lady why they didn't have a pair or M50X's (really common studio headphones) there as a reference and she got upset and told me I was expected to bring my own...guess I didn't get the memo. All in all I think they're a neat idea but when Dankpods man said he felt like they were "gimping" the natural vs customized setting it just reminded me of my experience with nuraphone at their booth.

A month later the connection for the cable started to become so loose that the cable dropped out while walking or doing stuff. Since then they've been unusable.
    They have been great during those 2 years, I loved them! However I won't going back to Nura as long as they are designed that way.

    Me and my ex shared a pair of Nuraphones- and I can confirm that it sounded better to me on my personalized setting than it did on his. (I wanted to see if they actually sounded different) and he said he preferred his setting to mine- and we had the "immersion mode" turned down for the tests. They can also tell who it is when you put them on (Idk how but it was pretty accurate too- it only got it wrong a couple times and switched to my ex's settings when i put them on) I can only assume its using the same weird inner ear mapping that sets your personalized "bubble" to identify who it is by the ear shape.

    I've been keeping an eye on these things for a couple of years. Just spotted a mint condition set on ebay for around half the price and snapped them up. The comment about "old mate's gold" has me buying some fresh ear tips though. Hahaha.
    Edit: These things are now my daily driver. The sound is amazingly crisp, the battery lasts me weeks on end without a charge, and I don't mind that they kinda look like PPE, in a workshop setting I get away with wearing them and nobody thinks twice about what I have on my head. I also installed my own lock nuts to the headband once I got them fitted to my head.

    Been using these for 2+ years. The headphones definitely "settle" to your ears after 1 month and becomes barely noticable. the fiddling around to get the right fit literally becomes instinct and routine and you do not even think about it when putting them on. I higly highly recommend these.
    Edit:
    5:53 If you press and hold the buttons they won't change anything. So when adjusting them, put your index finger on the top part of the adjustment hole and then use your thumb to adjust while holding. To then push down, put your index back on the button in a "pinch" and then swap to your thumb at the bottom of the headband metal. I usually use the index finger as a marker to get the perfect distance on both sides and once you get used to doing that it takes me 2 seconds without acivating the buttons.
    Another pro tip: The bit where the wire goes under, over and then into the headband, you can pull it out and "lock" the headphones into place.

      i mean he set up the iphone perfectly though. The noise is low. The shutter speed is perfect. And the exposure doesn't spaz out
      Edit: The only thing is the bitrate of the iPhone is low, but that almost doesn't show on UA-cam because of compression.
