The KEF Q150 (and Q100 for that matter) are very good speakers for the money and are especially so if you can find them used for a good deal. They do benefit greatly from a sub, but once you give them some bass reinforcement, they're honestly great speakers. KEF does make much nicer speakers, but they're a lot more expensive and weigh more, so they don't wall mount as readily.

To be honest, I felt the same way about the litter box. Like, how hard is it to scoop? But then, after experiencing it, it was well worth the money. One of my cats does not know how to cover his turds, and the smell would be awful. With the Litter Robot, that was a non issue. It was also great since it let us be away for long weekends without needing a pet sitter. But yea, definitely too expensive for a motor and weight sensor. The BOM cost is probably laughably low.
@iggysixx
@iggysixx Жыл бұрын
Keep in mind; you're also paying for the R&D, testing (do kitties like it or freak out - hole too big or too small - what happens when kittie steps back in to further bury his poop - etc), + the guarantee and peace of mind that your cat doesn't get mangled or freak out when you're not home. Would you feel equally at ease when if you bought a knock-off from AliExpress.. from someone who figured "well.. It's basically a cement mixer, right..? I can make that" (:
@cheetoritos
@cheetoritos Жыл бұрын
Sure, but if there was more competition on the market/more interest in the product (bigger economy of scale), no way it would be $550-$700! Think of the R&D involved in a game console, and those cost $500 or less. Still a great product (I have 2 and don't regret it), but you are kidding yourself if you think the R&D on the litter robot makes up for the premium. Not saying it should be like $50 dirt cheap. $250-$300 makes a lot more sense to me, considering they already gouge on accessories/refills.

@@cheetoritos Ah, but wouldn't you agree that consoles are probably sold at a mild loss, only to make the money back through selling games (as well as licensing, selling peripherals, and online game shops where you can spend your 'nintendo cards', or xbucks (or whatever) I recall a recent video where Linus tries to make a 'Series S' or X or something equivalent PC, and is unable to do it at that price point... (I'm guessing that's not just a happy little fluke. More like the 'razor & blades' model, or the 'printer & cartridge' thing.) So unless the cat mixer people are also producing special kitty litter, there's likely no secondary income for them. They might have patented the design too, btw... EDIT: wait.. Did you say refills...? (They sell custom litter..?)

They sell liner bags and a lot of accessories. You don't have to buy from them, there are 3rd party alternatives, but I imagine a lot of people do get first party. Their latest is an odor absorbing pod that needs to be replaced every 2 weeks and costs like $125 per year. They definitely have recurring revenue streams. Not exactly the same as the console business since they are guaranteed a cut of all game sales (and pirating is a lot more difficult) while the Litter Robot customers have alternative options. Either way, still a great product! I imagine they've done their market research with pricing. I think if they lowered the price by $100-$200 they could probably sell more. But then again, for most people, if they have no problem with their $30 plastic bin, anything over $100 would probably be a hard sell, so maybe lowering the price would get them any more customers

Edit: this was true on the SB1000 and the SB2000 but may not be true on the SB2000 Pro in this video. The Pro has a line out still but it appears to no longer have the highpass filter. This will still work but you won't get the benefit of the filter. You are wiring the sub wrong. You shouldn't be using a splitter, the sub has a highpass filter built in. You need to put the rca out from your DAC into the line in on the sub and then run the line out on the sub into your speaker amp. What this does is act as a crossover so the speakers are no longer trying to reproduce the frequency range you have asked the sub to handle. This means your speakers and amp aren't wasting power trying to reproduce subbass when you have a sub thats already doing that. Your midrange drivers should just generally perform better once they don't have to deal with that really low frequency range.

@Nothinglastsforever right, if you have a pre-out and power amp in you can run pre-out to your sub and then out from the sub to your power amp in. I have this on my old reciver but it seems pretty rare to have a pre-out/power in on integrateds these days. Since he is probably just using the DAC as the only source anyway it should be fine just running from the DAC if he doesn't have a pre-out

​@@Grimmers VR is really cool to experience with sim racing, but super annoying to setup and use regularly. There's a lotta user experience kinks for them to work out. While the initial setup can be annoying, a triple monitor setup is definitely the way to go. Or at least one of those fancy giant high refresh rate ultrawides. I get the vibe he's into sim racing, but not like crazy nerdy about it though.... but it's inevitable that he'll delve deeper into this rabbit hole... just have patience and pity for his wallet. 🥲

15:40 instead of using RCA Splitters, go RCA from your Source -> Sub Input -> Sub Output RCA -> Amp, this way the Sub will do crossover of the low frequencies. Saves small speakers like those KEFs from also playing low bass, which they aren't good at.

Jake: Why wouldn't you use the output on the sub? It has the crossover integrated, as it's a powered sub, and then you use the output into the speakers' input for the amp. No need to use splitters! Also, you're sending full range to the tops the way you wired it, so it's going to muddy the frequencies in the high-bass low-mid range.

I was just about to write this, cheers. The only reasoning I can muster would be to ensure that the signal is being amplified independently by each monitor/sub? But I still don't think that's right. Also interested to know if that second sub ever passively moves due to the bigger one firing.

REW and Equalizer APO is a freeware solution to room correction. Great pick on the sealed sub, but you’re inviting issues having those rear-ported speakers so close to the wall. A front-ported speaker would be a much better choice for this setup (though $200 for those Q150’s is excellent!)
@JohnDoe_333
@JohnDoe_333 Жыл бұрын
Also using EQ APO with my 2.1 desktop setup. The only problem is that in windows you need to do a virtual 5.1 setup and reroute the outputs to correct the sub and front speakers individually. Of course it needs a LOT of experience to interpret the measurements correct the frequency response in the right way, because you have all freedom to make it better or worse. Fully automatic correction nowadays doesn't make the experience worse, but it's still far away from a manually dialed in response.

Well tbf, video is going through a lot more advancements compared to audio. For example, the HD 600s (effectively the gold standard and the best benchmark) have been around for the 90s, DT 770s since the 80s, etc. and they're still in production today and sound effectively identical. Plus audio as a whole is a bit more niche than comparing the latest and greatest gaming monitors/GPUs which are still undergoing lots of innovations and get the interest of more people, especially since it's easier to see and describe video than it is to describe and compare audio accurately in videos.
