My MacBook Pro Audio Setup!

2017-03-25
my gosh and I thought you were ready to give up what is up guys and PC back here again with another video a video inspired by a subscriber who asked me what am i listening to my music through so that's what this video is going to be about and hopefully this video can inspire you guys to go out and create your own audio setup so as of last week I've been using my macbook pro 2016 as my main audio source it actually sounds really good compared to my desktop PC which I was using before now Apple probably put in a amazing audio chip into this I couldn't find any information on what they did or what they put in it so since the MacBook Pro is for pros and that a lot of DJ's are going to be using this for music I would assume that they put in a great audio chip into this laptop I think I couldn't find any information on it so we kind of just have to go with it sounds good for now now I listen to a majority of my music on Spotify I know a lot of people like to listen to flat and all these high-end music files but it's kind of a hassle to kind of go and search for all the music that I want to listen to when I want to listen to it and on-demand so usually I just go with Spotify and usually it it's pretty good it's pretty good quality occasionally there's going to be a little older remastered songs that don't sound as good I also use programs like SoundCloud and YouTube occasionally now from my MacBook Pro there's four USB C port so I had to get a who to which is an adapter that has three USB 3.0 ports on it and I connect my amp deck to the whoo - I thought you were ready to give up so this does let's talk about my aunt deck the cord mojo now I got this thing three weeks ago and it has blown my mind it is exactly what I wanted it was warm it's basically it's punchy all of the things that you would want in a great-aunt deck at least for me in my taste now I connect my cord mojo to my max with via a USB 3.0 and what this does is it's a deck which stands for digital analog converter so take those zeros and ones from the MacBook and it turns it into an analog form which then I can consume through my ears to keep it short now depending on what kind of app deck you have it can give your headphones a whole new life and that's what it did it made my lcd twos come to life now it has to magna - and it was okay it's really hollow sounding tubular sounding as they say but when I got the cord mojo it's a very full sounding headphone and I've just been falling in love with it and this thing can power headphones up to 800 ohms which is just insane so it's going to be powering electrostatic headphones for years to come for me I don't think I need to be upgrading it's a great end game at that so for five hundred dollars this thing is a very extensive I know for most people is going to be a lot so what I'm going to do is I'm going to put ants conduct down in the description that are a little bit more affordable and that can get your guys's foot in the door if you're just starting off with your audio setup but for five hundred dollars this thing's competes with ants and acts three times worth its price so it's worth its weight in gold it's also affordable which is another plus since I have the MacBook I could take it into my living room I could take it to a Starbucks and have great music on a plane anywhere that I want to go it says ten hours but I've been getting about four hours so think it is what it is next up let's talk about the LCD - now these have been my daily drivers these are what I listen to all of my music on and what I compare all of my headphones that I get in for review with now these are going to be steep as well these are running for about $1,000 I didn't pay a thousand dollars for them I got a beef stock version which is a used slightly used version for five hundred dollars so I'm going to chalk that up as a win as much as I can for spending five hundred dollars but they've been great I've really enjoyed using them and comparing other headphones to them I felt like I needed a good reference headphones so that I'm not just blindly reviewing headphones I can kind of compare them to these vice-versa and say you know these are actually kind of close to a thousand dollar pair of headphones or I can kind of gauge or put them on a scale with these headphones so that was one of the main reasons why I bought these headphones and also it features planar technology which features less distortion so if you're coming from beats that are dynamic headphones those have a lot of static at the high end these not so much never that they're great for movies they're so so for gaming the sound stage isn't as wide as I like sometimes my student has their five nine eight are a little bit wider but these are still great I get a lot of soundstage a lot of separation a lot of clarity the bass is accurate the mids are accurate the highs are accurate so all in all this is a great headphone all-around for any type of genre that you're listening to although they do suffer sometimes when I listen to EB M so I might have to pick up another pair of headphones we'll see now these are going to be an open back design so they are going to leak sound so they're not the best for traveling or going to a Starbucks or a library you might want to look into a closed back pair of headphones which I will have some alright guys so that is my audio setup thank you guys for watching alright so thank you guys for watching dude what's up what looks like we got to do addition to the family
