Car audio question:
I replaced the factory head-unit in my speed3 with one of the cheap Eonon units. It was a functional upgrade over factory, got me CarPlay/AndroidAuto and a backup cam, but it's flaky and it only does wired CarPlay.
Any recommendations on a better unit that does wireless CarPlay? Bonus if I can just plug in the camera from the Eonon and not have to rewire/replace that whole situation.
I should get my Asgard back today! I received no communication while they had it, just finally an email that was a $0.00 charge invoice with some notes on the bottom:
"Main board replacement. The transformer, and fuse failed, and the left channel is beyond repair."
Considering just how quickly it happened after I got it back, I wonder if someone oops'd something in the inital repair.
Goddamnit. I JUST got my Asgard back and it took a shit. It had been having some noise in the left channel again, and last night I came home to a house that smelled like the magic smoke (the electronics kind) and an amp that won't power on.
Do I try to send it back again? I did just drop $100 having them repair it, but I really don't want to deal with shipping this thing again, and I sure as hell don't want to pay for another repair.
Well, my Asgard finally took a shit. I grabbed my headphones yesterday and the left earcup was hot, there was noise in the left channel, and when I unplugged the headphone the jack was oily(??) and it looked like there was a burn-mark on the tip of the plug.
I've sent Schiit an email to see if repair is an option. It's old enough that I'm certainly out of warranty, but I'd rather spend some to get this repaired than throw this out and spend more to get something new.
With the kid in the house, I'm looking for a bluetooth transmitter to add in to my home stereo. Give me the ability to use my wireless headphones to listen to CDs and records.
I want something that runs on outlet power (i.e. not a battery to recharge), and that I can just run speaker-out from the receiver to input on the device.
I checked Monoprice, but the one they have is battery-powered.
@Mark do you have anything you recommend here?
Check out this review. New Record Day is a zero BS audio channel that is more about room acoustics and speaker placement than reviewing new gear. He says this is basicly the perfect speaker for his tastes. The review is great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRrgJ-_npls
He has another interview with the designer about why and how open baffle speakers sound so good in a room. These are really some great #WeirdAudioMastodon speakers.
Open baffle, paper woofers, exotic tweeter, high efficiency, highly dynamic,
