SWING THAT WOODI!

Love your laugh when you uncover the woodi plug :D Glad i sub'd

Jamie Wallis

Which came first, the iCoustic or the Base?

hi i started donating today lol

Finally donating. Glad to have content on deck to watch.

As a former employee of a Pawn shop, I love all of these finds. I've seen my share of nugget mp3 players and Eeeeeeee Pee Ceeeee's in my day too.

Deafbeats

I LOVE BIRDS OF TOKYO THIS IS MY FAVORITE NUGGET

oh, i thought the iCoustic was a Sony mp3 player.

I got the Samson sr850s and the little Bluetooth amp and DAC you recommended. The Samson's have arrived and they're great!

i had to do a rain check. look at the iCoustic knock off walkman haha!

sadd

i had the icoustic after my shuffle went through the washer a second time and died for real 🥺🥺 it did me well until i got the dreaded zune

Honestly sad the Woodi was broke, that thing looked cool

oww it hurts

I Love the nugget lucky dip.

I think the EeePeeCee didn't show the black nugget's contents because they're tagged as hidden. Try setting Explorer to show hidden files, it might help with future projects

Bit late to the party but Woodi are actually quite known in retro nintendo circles for making (pretty decent and sought after) gameboy clones. specifically the GBA clone. They were backlit before backlit gbas were a thing people wanted. Interesting to see it's an actual COMPANY who MADE things...

Yo this story’s adorable as shit, my man!

That black mp3 player is exactly what I bought on black Friday at a Shopko under the brand name Coby over ten years ago. I had stayed up to go there at 3, dragged my friend along and we waited until it opened first in line. Waited til 6am to get a 30$ (Us) mp3 player. When I got there my friend didn't want anything, but I ran into a girl I knew from high school,and I introduced them while I got in line to buy it. They ended up getting married! I was the best man at their wedding. So while I got some lame mp3 player that lasted a year, my friend got something that will last a lifetime 😁 (you bet I said that at their wedding 🤣)

oh, and the first pair i got had a dead right channel and pleather pads but the replacement works great but has faux felt earpads, fucking weird. same box same model no same branding, just weird.

Yeah, grabbed the Samsons as my first even remote audiophile headphone, first over-ear headphone, and with a clean judgement slate they are really impressive. Listening to most content through a decent pc speaker or my galaxy buds there is a lot of detail and space I've been missing, even in things like youtube vids. Thanks for the recommendation.

Woodi! It's like in toy story when Andy says i dont wanna play with you anymore and he just ends up in this bag.

YOU'RE HERE FOR THE GARBAGE!

AstralPhnx

that woodi is adorable

No full screen :(

the woodi looks like a tiny cassette player, until you turn it into a dingus usb drive.

these videos are so worth the buck

It spins too

Nice one Issac!

Just picked up those Samson headphones you recommended. Should be here on Monday and I can wait to try them out! Thanks so much for the vids man and keep on doing it!

He’s got a woodie

My thoughts exactly

Asaf Sagi

Try it on linux or mac...the drives most likely will show up

We might accidentally bring that beast back onto the market. What have I done.

Every day at work I catch myself saying Eeeee PeeeCeee

Tyler Follis

agreed!

Certainly look a heck of a lot better

I have a 1st gen Nano with some dudes trip to Italy on it

I like the grab bags

Zyrian

Woodi such a shame not even working without the cable :( that joystick thing 😍

I would love it if you reviewed some earphones as well, I have been using the Panasonic RP-HJE125E's for months since my headphones broke, and think they sound incredible, especially for the price. However I'm by no means an audiophile so I'm not sure how good they actually are.

Samson makes some really great budget microphones so I'm not surprised they turned out at the top of the list. They're great for building a home studio type thing on a budget.

Would you recommend them for every day commute use, or due to the open nature you’d stick with using them around the house?

I knew donating to your patreon would finally pay off once you revealed your woodi

Did you ever have a pair of RP-HTX7s? They were a phenomenon here in the states for a while because of the way they looked. Didn’t sound too bad either but because of their shape you would get a headache from wearing them too much. Stop me if you’ve heard this already...but now I love my ath M50x. I drum as well and they let the perfect amount of sound in.

Kinda surprising that no one removes their stuff from their old tech before they get rid of it. When I buy stuff from yard sales, thrift stores and whatnot I've found photos, tax documents, music, school papers and everything else left behind.

It's not really necessary to spend that much unless you just want to show off with some Beats or something.

Charles Petrosky

I've been flipping Polaroid cameras the last couple years. One guy at a yard sale sold me five of them for $1, probably made like $80 profit off that bargain. Fun side gig.

Charles Petrosky

Anyone have any good recommendations for the $200-300 Aus/NZ dollar mark?

James Gould

I have had the Samson's for 5-6 years and they're finally starting to go (I've been very very mean, especially to the cable). Honestly probably just going to get another pair due to the unique financial situation of the times, but I don't feel like I'm settling at all

Connor Black

So, in reference to today's main video, I wanted to mention the Sennheiser HD 400 S headphones. https://en-us.sennheiser.com/headphones-mic-stereo-over-ear-hd-400s $70. Wired over-ear closed back cans, detachable cable with line-in controls, great build quality with nicer pleather earcups, the earcups swivel and fit nicely, only issue is the top band for me, I feel like it needed some kinda padding on top. But for the price, these are sleek lookin' and sound really good. Well balanced sound that's clear and gets decently loud, does bass really well without sounding muddy or distorted, highs are crisp. They aren't super narrow in terms of staging either. Seriously recommend these for listening to flacs on your phone or playing Doom Eternal with these on.

Why no Audio-Technica?

Loelinverse

Give us the 1-Grit Stress Ball!

I use the Sennheiser HD800 and it's crazy good. You've gotta try it sometime, it seriously blew my mind the first time I tried a pair.

Amazon AU doesn't sell earpods, and they are $45AUD from apple.com.au

Adam Reid

Watching this with my Sennheiser HD 4.40 BT's

Thursdays are becoming my favorite day, I love the branch into more audio and mp3 stuff, as much as I enjoy learning about something I know nothing about from a hilarious aussie ❤️

Diarmuid Crowley

I use Sennheisers HD599SE that i got for $99 on sale. Best purchase ever. Also I would love to see the rest in that bag.

me brother got me an icoustic when I was like 4, pre-loaded with the Shrek 2 soundtrack and queen greatest hits (pirated of course) and it was garbage

Luna Dalton

In the non-patreon video you said the apple earpods are $40. You can get real ones on amazon for way cheaper. Like $10 to $15

I fully expect you to accidentally uncover some hidden gem among all the trashpods one day. You'll be responsible for the next cult classic. Not sure if you're into cameras at all, but basically, what happened was a few years ago, compact film cameras SHOT up in price, from like five bucks, to a good condition one going for thousands. All due to hype. [Also, Beyerdynamic are my favourite headphones. They were about €120, so way above the bracket discussed today, but I love them. Although, Basic Apple earbuds are still the daily driver for my 11-year old 5th gen.

Now the question to this day I still need to know is the brand and model of the speaker and can I get one in the UK because you can tell she be smexy

the Samson headphones this week looked 99% like my AKG M220's

Connor Nolan

Honestly whoever owned the base as the same music taste as I do now

Dude, you're the only creator I donate to and you never disappoint. You're the whole reason I even have an account here. Keep up with the great stuff man.

Rad cans, the noise cancelling is great. Mine are lik 8 years old and still going.

I can tell you there isnt haha but we will work through this bag dont you worry 👌

I remember the Toilet Dock well...

I'd have to get some Beats first I think!

This was really fun to watch :)

Let me give some thoughts real quick. That white one looks like a fairly decent quality player for the time I guess, but I wonder if there’s a slot for some kind of mass storage device itself to go in (not saying Micro SD because it looks too old for that to be a standard thing then) but was empty. Purple one didn’t have a good battery, but I noticed you didn’t try wall power, which may or may not have worked depending if it works on Apple logic. Black one probably was a carbon copy of the purple one, other than that it doesn’t seem like the worst MP3 player, because the LegoPod still takes the crown for that one.

listening to this on my hd280's that I got for $60 (freedombux) on student discount

I really hope you go through the other players in that bag, it would be amusing to see if there's atleast a single GOOD player in there.

ThunderTHR

I havent even watched the main vid cuz I don't care

"icustic- do you make juuuunk?" Was perfect.

Yeah, mpow are amazing bang for there buck. I am rocking the mpow flame 2's and there the best bluetooth headphones I have ever used.

Have you ever tried a pair of MPOW headphones? Lew from unbox therapy made a video on them and described their sound as close to beats. Whether you think beats can sound good.

Is this like pandora's box.
