Hi all! Me and the family are planning on moving to Port Alberni in November, and I was wondering what the board game scene is like? I enjoy all manner of games and genres, though don't really delve into TTRPGs.
Mid to long term I'd hope to find a group I can play Arkham Horror LCG with (I have a full collection) and people to teach Netrunner to.
I have Momentum True Wireless 4 earbuds, and am based in Canada. Background story time.
I originally had MTW3s, bought in December 2022. They were great, but one of the buds developed the issue where it would often emit a high pitched whine, starting lower, then raising in pitch.
I sent them for repair in September 2024, got my 4s as replacement a couple months later. This was wonderful, and unexpected.
Sadly, these developed their own issues. Sounds from the right bud can only be heard when it's in a very specific place in my ear, and any movement (even that caused by breathing) can knock it out of alignment, along with emitting a painful burst of static/white noise. So that one is unusable.
So I send them off for repair. I'm currently in an email exchange, where I've been told they're out of my original warranty (I know this, I stated as much at the start of the exchange), and they don't offer repairs. My hope had been because they were brand new when replaced, I'd be able to be helped still, as it's less than two years since that happened. But I guess not?
This is super frustrating, especially as I've taken impeccable care of them. They're only used when I'm working at my office at home, or listening to audio before bed.
Any help or suggestions people have? Local audio shops have said they won't repair. I love the earbuds, but if both Sennheiser products I've had have lasted less than two years (and the originals weren't cheap), I doubt I'll ever purchase from the company again.
Thanks for reading! Have a nice day.
