  • Apple debuts $549 AirPods Max over-ear headphones

    Pro musician/audio guy here - we are so far from the target market, it's comical to see anyone suggest that the pro market would be interested.

    Pretty sure any pros I know will stick with their AT50x or 7506s or Beyers.

    Fretting over the 1/8 jack at this point? Man I get it. Every headphone extension cable sucks and I don't want a stupid 1.2m white cable dangling to my knee on stage the same way I don't want 3 stupid ass adapters hanging out of my iPad or Mac on stage. Looks like just as much of a disaster there as it does in a board room, but *no one seems to care*

    Oh, and just to throw a wrench in the L/R debate. In pro audio, Right is Red, Left usually blue or white. Good luck have fun!

  • Analyst says Apple may forego Lightning-to-3.5mm adapter for new iPhones

    The 3.5mm standard is more ubiquitous than the AC plug. Which means they're making more of these than they are the different power bricks that ship with the devices. $20/ea would be a good way to cash in on a widely unpopular attempt to destroy a universal standard while not admitting defeat.

  • Apple Music to go live on Sonos connected speakers tomorrow

    What if...they made Apple Music useable in the first place. I just had yet another conversation with a few friends the over the weekend about how they hated Apple Music and it messed up their playlists and so they went back to Spotify. I explained Apple was paying artists more and to give it another shot. They don't care. 1st impressions. No one cares if it works on Sonos.
