I’m still struggling to find the perfect EQ for me, so I’d love to try what others are using and maybe find one that works for me.

If you share yours, it’d be great to know what kind of music you mainly listen to with that EQ or what you’re trying to improve with it.

Would love to see what everyone’s using!

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I have Airtel Xstream Fiber 300 Mbps and I’m planning to get a TP-Link Archer AX56 or AX72 Pro.

My plan is to have Airtel put their router/ONT in bridge mode and then use the TP-Link as my main router.

Before I buy it, I want to hear from people who are already using their own router with Airtel in bridge mode.

A few questions:

1 - How easy/difficult was it to get Airtel bridge mode enabled?

2 - Did Airtel provide the PPPoE username/password without any issues?

3 - After switching to bridge mode, have you faced random disconnections or internet drops?

4 - Has Airtel ever disabled/broken bridge mode after an update or maintenance?

5 - Have you had problems with PPPoE reconnecting or getting an IP?

6 - Does IPv6 work properly with your own router?

7 - Do you still have access to the Airtel router/ONT settings after bridge mode?

8 - Have you faced any issues with Airtel support when troubleshooting a connection while using your own router?

9 - Are there any features/services from Airtel that stop working after bridge mode?

10 - Overall, has using your own router in bridge mode been stable and reliable long-term?

11 - For anyone using a TP-Link AX56/AX72 Pro, have you faced any specific issues with Airtel?

12 - Would you recommend doing it, or is it better to stick with the Airtel router?

I’m mainly looking for real experiences from people currently using bridge mode with Airtel, especially any problems you’ve encountered after the initial setup. I just want it to work smoothly and without any issues.

Thanks!

I bought the Sony WH-1000XM6 Headphones about a month ago and I’m a bit confused about the ANC.

I also own the AirPods Pro 3 and honestly the noise cancellation feels… very similar. I was expecting the XM6 to be noticeably better since they’re full-size over-ear headphones but I’m not really experiencing a huge difference or any difference sometimes.

Is this normal or am I just overthinking it? Do both headphones have similar ANC in real-world use or should the XM6 be clearly outperforming the AirPods Pro 3?

I’d love to hear from people who actually own and use both.

Thanks!

**just fyi, I’m on the latest version of XM6s.

My main use cases are the gym and entertainment (music, movies and YouTube) with occasional travel. I need some suggestions on which one I should go for.

I’ve heard that the Sony has better ANC which would be helpful at the gym. At the same time I’ve also heard that the Sennheiser offers better sound quality, so I can’t decide between the two.

If anyone has used both, how much of a difference is there in their ANC (in % maybe?)?

Edit: Using AirPods 4 (ANC) as of now, but they fall off quite easily at the gym. ANC is good in these, I guess?
