Wrong again

Stop thinking

I have legacy audio (whispers,look em up) 7 monoblock amps ect ect, 250,000$ or so in my main system

I know sound

These Thodios are amazing

How can you speak on something you never have heard or seen?

silly

ALSO, off topic

 

*You think Yamaha is good sound? That speaks worlds

lets stay on topic about GW2 music :)

Heard about 90% now.

Still 100% blown away by the quality of this.

Sound production is blockbuster,high $$$ movie level.

 

Anyway

TY GW2 team who did music and even game sounds !!!!

Just the sound of my sweet sweet slingshot is amazing (shortbow)

=P

Lmao so you bring your 250k system into it, like my £500 monitors are going to compare.

 

I am purely stating that this beatbox does not compete with a pair of HS8's, if you think that, you are deluded.

Have you heard them side by side? I have :)

VS countless others also ( B&W, Paradigm,polk,dynauadio,cambridge, ectect)

Again, as a rule ..dont talk about things you know nothing about.

 

Not sure why we are still talking about this, off topic.

 

I can see why you might think this is a boombox/beatbox like from the 80s. It is not

This has all custom HIGH end stuff that very high $$$ stuff uses.

 

I have the larger XC

After putting it side by side ( personally) to perhaps ( didnt count) 30 various size and brands

it was nearly the same (eyes closed) to an amp/pre amp to a pair of Prestige 15B bookshelf (Paradigm)

Not sure, they retail 800ish? Forget

 

Not bad for a "beatbox"

I do not work for or get paid by THODIO

I just like having the best of things,w/e it is.

This radio is really quite shocking

 

I am done on this topic.

Post again if you get and TEST one :)

Or at least hear one

 

*Have now head every track

Really impressed.

Not sure any game ( of my 21 MMOs) had this high budget HQ music and sound.

Mostly done with forums as it seems to be trollville only

Back to gaming

 

***GW2 Sound team A+++

Music and game sound both

Sadly, I think most people dont have the gear to even hear just how good sound is.

For fun I hooked it to my main system ( 250k $$ ish talked about above)

Stunning

Wont bore ya with the entire system

The Whispers make this sound like a movie with a 100 mil+ budget, THAT good

Cheers

GW2 music is awesome, really. I do love it. Mostly. The only reason I don't have in-game music enabled is the Lion's Arch music.

 

Suggestion: Add an option to turn off music for individual maps.

 

If that doesn't work, please make the permanent Mistlock Sanctuary pass available in the Gemstore. That way I don't have to visit LA at all. At least not on a regular basis.

But hey, that's my personal opinion, and to each their own, eh? As for sound, I marvel at the sound in the game, and how complex and varied and rich it is.

> Gaile, another poster in a diff thread said the soundcloud lacks the LS4 ep1 stuff. Is it possible that can be looked into?

 

Sure, I can ask about that. Thanks for pointing out the request. :)

> I can barely get through "Fear Not this Night" without shedding a tear or two, it's just something in the melody. The overall soundtrack is epic as well, such great, memorable melodies. I can't imagine doing World Completion without music.

 

I'm right there with you. <3

For me, it's because I spend so much time on Discord while playing, it's hard to hold a conversation with the music up. The few times I do play with the music up I really enjoy it
