favorite accessories that i keep in here this is a connector i'm not familiar with if i had to guess i'd say it's a balanced input of some sort but it's not one that i own any equipment that specifically works with so i will tuck that away i can tell you right now i'm annoyed with sennheiser out of the gate here that there's no microphone included with the default cable that was an add-on that i had to spend a lack of money on for this one and that also makes the fit not as good these are my i-80s with the optional mic cable you can see it doesn't come up high enough to hold them in place anymore so they like come off more easily they include both foam type and silicone type ear tips these were made famous by comply way back in the day and like many premium earphones they include mmcx connectors so this allows you to swap out your cables between the balanced one and then the normal three pole three and a half mil or if you want to get third-party cables in the future either because you want to save a buck or because you like throwing away money then you could do that as well now hmm i'm not a huge fan of the the stiff plastic like ear pieces but that's kind of a your mileage may vary thing looks like they've retained their shape reasonably well though they're not super hard or anything like that i'm going to try the small foam type ones oh we got the banana for scale you want to see how big they are here's a banana all right you buy a banana on lttstore.com what you should really be doing is signing up for a notification for when the backpack and the screwdriver come in stock otherwise how will you know other than that i'm gonna tell you constantly oh they definitely don't feel heavy actually they feel like like slim almost i guess part of it is that i'm so used to daily driving airpods right which are sticking out of your ear hanging down right like some kind of goofus i mean i guess having this cinched up nice and tight is a bit of a goofus look too in it how do i look boys beautiful here are some uh eggs let's play egg toss okay please tell me they're boiled i cannot confirm or deny that your only rule is you have to stay at the desk i have to stay at the desk how am i supposed to toss underhand from the desk that's not d brand's problem these are clearly not hard-boiled okay a couple more let's play throw and catch all right clearly too easy for ya so we got level two this is really stupid all right toss it straight to my voice that sweet sultry voice uh you actually did it okay all right i'm throwing it oh oh okay that was a bad throw oh my god you got it on the headphones yeah all right that was a great job Linus i got a letter from you from dbrand oh no you're good we're gonna fight you're gonna keep throwing things at me so dbrand wanted us to throw this egg around to waste your time why waste your time because there's a discount for all d brand products happening right now but it ends 15 minutes from when this video was published if you're watching this you probably missed it if not use code 5 foot one ah right there buddy for 15 off dbrand.com short Linus thanks d brand get bent hey wait a minute they're going to kill our retention stats on this video d brand what the heck they need to pay extra for that yes sir now i know immediately i am going to take criticism for hooking these up to such an unworthy source as a razer dongle attached to a mere samsung Android phone but i stand by that even with 600 us dollar earphones most people are not going to be plugging them into a proper source and i want to hear them as most people will every time every time i have to talk about music i feel like my taste in music is gonna be judged so i'm just i'm not gonna tell you what i'm listening to i don't even care oh before i turn them on actually let's talk noise isolation man now that i'm used to active noise cancellation like i don't know say something to me yeah i can actually i can hear you pretty well yeah if anything i'd say my ie80s are a little more isolating than these 600s i have a really exciting announcement we actually have one of our first full-time Labs hires on now and he's an audio guy he's working on getting us one of those like dummy heads with the the microphone set up for your frequency response curves and all that awesome stuff and we're actually going to be doing a video on LTT taking i think it's either two or three dummy heads benchmarking which one is the most true to life so stay tuned for that this could be one of the last videos we ever do that's just me listening to it and telling you guys how it sounds to me i'm expecting an app or something but you just plug it in and they work that's like next that's next level i don't know how to describe the sound other than clean nothing is overdone bass heads are going to want to eq it up but that's a good sign if you have a nice accurate headphone you can play around with the eq and it'll still be accurate just eq'd i'm not gonna lie i'm pretty hooked on the encanto soundtrack listening to surface pressure right now i'm not going to tell you what i'm listening to i don't even care i think i take back what i said this feels like a proper audiophile product this is not the kind of thing people are going to plug into their plain and simple this is the kind of thing that people are going to be plugging into a proper audiophile grade mp3 or more likely flak player and be tuning their eqs to their tastes and even to different genres of music these things sound amazing i totally underestimated what i was dealing with here you know what i really need to listen to is like something something older that actually has some dynamic range something pretty loudness wars like i have so little of that kind of stuff it manages to be dead accurate on the hi-hat hits without being harsh at all well there's a bunch of other stuff that's cool about them there's the steel shot blasting that gives them this really unique finish i think it looks amazing the material is from amloy technologies it's super durable and it's supposed to leave practically no evidence of daily use meaning these things should last as long as you know the magnets inside them work but none of that is really the point the point is these sound unlike anything else i've ever heard you know what you know what yes i do have a point of reference for them the etimotic er twos i believe they were that i had man i had a pair of those way back in the day yeah edomotic er4s but better you better subscribe gotta go bye"}
