  • I go on the hunt to see if I can find any Retro Vintage products with modern features. Will they give me that nostalgia I am looking for, or will they just get in my way?
    Oh hey, I'm going to be uploading again. Probably 6-12 times a year. Glad you're back!

There is no such thing as a digital speaker, at some point a thing has to convert the 1's and 0's to a sine wave to feed a driver, and that thing is a DAC. They can be higher or lower quality, but it is what it is. P.S. Dude also looked like he was also outsmarted for a full minute by a paint can. XD

That product might not appeal to the casual consumer, but that is because it's not made for them,it's made for audiophiles. Those people have no problems spending a big amount of money in new sound products, so the price point and the obtaining of lossless music formats it's not a problem for most of them.

    For anyone who doesn't know, the importance of a DAC is the quality of the conversion of the audio.
    Anything digital (PC, phone, MP3 player, your car, etc) has a DAC in order to play music, as the DAC is what turns the binary 1's and 0's into listenable audio.
    The better the DAC, the better the recreation of the analogue audio.
    A higher quality DAC has lower distortion, better signal-to-noise ratio, better dynamic range, and lets you get more out of your music.
    That said, the price-to-performance ratio gets steep, so while having a dedicated DAC can be a great thing, you don't need to break your budget unless you're an audiophile with a large wallet.

    • @bartz0rt928
      @bartz0rt928 Місяць тому +10

      It's also good to add that the DAC alone won't make your music sound good. You also need high quality sound files, amplifier, cables for the analogue part, and speakers. The quality to price ratio really jumps off a cliff when you get past a certain price point, and that's before you stop to consider how good your hearing even is.

    • @acdbrn2000
      @acdbrn2000 Місяць тому +8

      Also the DPSL2 is a DAP not a DAC. DAP is just a digital audio player, aka MP3 player. This term is used since they play a lot more formats besides MP3 only. The main advantages of a DAP vs a smartphone could be higher quality components for audio and lover quality everywhere else usually (screens, processor, software). You also regain a few things like a headphone jack and an amp that can run reasonable headphones and IEMs (in ear monitors/earbuds). My favorite feature is getting rid of the phone with all the notifications and other distractions when I just want to listen to some music, since you can use a reasonable Bluetooth or usb DAC connected to most phones to get the same audio hardware benefits of a DAP with all the extras that come with a phone (good and bad).
      That said $2200 is kinda silly. Something from Sony, Hiby, Fiio, Cayin, or a bunch of other manufacturers in the $100 - $1000 range is fine. And really the wide range is mainly for things like brand or if you want a less compromised everything else experience on the player since most run modified android with some changes on the backend to allow for more audio options then stock has. I use a Shanling M3x (around $200) for my DAP when I want to disconnect from my phone and a Fiio BTR5 (about $100) to allow my phone to connect to my wired IEMs when I want better audio then my Bluetooth buds but I need to be more attentive to my phone. There are cheaper options that get probably get really close to what I use and more expensive options that are slightly better.

    • @SwervingLemon
      @SwervingLemon 26 днів тому +2

      Even the crappiest DAC's these days are so good that so-called professional "ears" can't tell the difference between them. The low bitrate ones are almost exclusively used for sensor or position encoding functions where less data is actually preferable.
      There's no incentive to substitute those into audio designs because the cost is the same. Like, 12¢/unit on a bulk tape reel.
      You can pay an awful lot for higher resolution DAC's but, in double-blind tests, nobody could tell the difference.

      Yep. And that DAC can actually be used with streaming services, but it loses portability (and Spotify doesn't have great quality, the highest mode on it is pretty comparable to MP3 320kbps, compared to Tidal which is much better in that regard), just connect it to the PC via USB and use it as an USB DAC.

    the corded phone is for old people that wants too keep touch with family and is very hung up in what they know. My granmother had to use a modern corded phone that just used a simcard to keep in touch with family. That phone looks awesome for old folks, they can facetime granchildren and everything. For those who are thinking "just use a phone", nah bro, old people dont work like that over here.

    Just so you know, everything that has a speaker (or a mic for that matter; they're just speakers in reverse) has a dac. Whether it be in the headphone jack on your computer, or inside your airpods, somewhere down the line that digital signal needs to be converted to analog. You can't *hear* binary, it needs to be more than just on or off. But we can use binary to represent a voltage that can be sent out to the speaker and heard.

    Listen up. I‘ve been watching dope or nope since its been just Matthias, I appreciated all the changes and I loved the most recent trio. But this style, this modern minimal style of the set and Matthias himself? It is flawless. It feels professional and like Matthias finally arrived at a point in dope or nope that truly feels like himself. I hope with this feeling more natural, we can look forward to many more Dope or Nope videos! Keep on rocking!

    Minor suggestion, have a background for the dope or nope, or an outline, if the font is white, it can be hard to see depending on the surroundings, such as the first phone being a nope, kind of hard to see.

    Hey all! Thanks for all your comments about the DAC, yall are correct, any digital device that allows you to hear things has a DAC. The point I was trying to make (that I didn't make well) was Not all DACs are created equal and have various other attributes that make the cost different including amplification. Yes, the headphones did indeed probably do the heavy lifting, I didn't test them on the iPhone because my intent was to test a common pairing. Again, could have communicated that better. Thanks for watching and thanks for watching that closely too! You guys rock.

    There's a genuinely great use case for the Android landline phone, especially in senior living environments. Most telephone providers have moved away from traditional in-wall telephone jacks, requiring residents to purchase a full internet service to enable landline calling. This Android phone could simplify things with a more affordable cellular plan and features 'big button' contacts for ease of use, particularly helpful for those with poor vision. Additionally, its built-in backup battery ensures the phone remains operational during power outages, unlike modern landlines that rely on the modem being powered.
