Budget Custom In Ear Monitor

This is a great option if you’re looking for a budget 4k monitor!

If you need in ear monitor and and don't want to spend over $ Then this is your solution.

I am on a shoestring budget and needed something to stick my Home Depot custom softboxes onto. They fit perfect particularly because of the 1/4-20 thread on the top. Nice and light, compact, can't complain. Only thing is the small caps on the bottoms of the feet may fall off (mine did in the snow) but I'm not worried. Some tape can cover those real quick. Would recommend!

I purchased this Intercom Headset to use with our system at church. I really like how I could use my custom in ear monitors with this headset and how comfortable it is to wear. On Christmas Eve, I had this on for over 10 hours as I directed two rehearsals and three services. The stage captain, executive producer, and video director all commented on how clear the audio was from the microphone. My only regret is that I didn't purchase this sooner!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using these headphones for over a month and have enjoyed the fit and sound from this product. Great design making the outer portion of the ear pieces difference shapes (concave vs convex). This helps to find the proper ear when in the dark. The included tip covers help to make a near custom fit without the custom price. Sounds quality from these lightning connected headphones was as good or better than my Apple AirPods. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've tried several wireless earbuds and accepted the fact that you won't get the sound of over-the-ear headphones unless you shell out big bucks. These proved me wrong. The sound is great for them to be budget wireless earbuds. I'm not an audiophile, but I like hearing the bass in my songs, and I can hear them quite well with these little guys. The setup couldn't be easier. There's nothing to it. Once paired, they automatically connect when you take them out of the charging case and automatically disconnect when you put them back in the case. The only thing I don't care for is the ease with which you can accidentally do something by grazing the earbud with your finger. I could just be adjusting how it sits in my ear, and I will have accidentally skipped a song, paused, or something else. Speaking of how it feels in the ear, they are comfortable! I have small ear canals and almost always have to use the smallest plugs, but I didn't have to this time. The plugs that were already on them fit my ears, and the buds do not budge or feel like they are going to pop out. So if you have small ears, just try these buds on right out of the box before switching to the smallest plugs. Lastly, I like how these look in my ear. I don't care for having a spoke hanging down my ear (looks kind of dumb), so I appreciate that these neatly sit inside my ear and look great from the side and head-on. I highly recommend these if you are budget conscious but love high-quality sound.

It was a tough decision between the XF100 or the XA20. Spent several days researching both online and testing video samples from both in FCPX. Yes the XF100 has a better codec and custom buttons, yet it needs custom profiles to produce great video. The XA20 is ready to shoot out of the box and only needs a few custom adjustments. I lowered the contrast, sharpness, and saturation a bit for better color grading in post. I set the auto gain limit for a max gain of +6, this keeps the noise levels very reasonable in low light.The XA20 is missing a histogram and false color for critical exposure. I fixed this issue by purchasing a 7 external HDMI monitor that has all these features for not much $$ at all. Now I have all the needed exposure features, a much bigger screen that can be profiled properly.The added bonus of a external monitor is that I can use it on my D600 as well. I also added a Rode VideoMic Pro and dead cat for much better audio.Even with all the extras I have a very solid run & gun setup that I use for documentary work and small business ads, for well under $.Remove the xlr handle and you have a great HD video camera for travel.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is not only my first LG monitor but also the largest monitor I have owned as well as my first, widescreen. I absolutely cannot believe that I can do what was taking me two separate monitors on just this one monitor. This was the main point, or desire, in my wanting to own a widescreen monitor was to be able to condense and not have to use multiple monitors. So this also means using less electricity as well. I did not know until after the fact that it has built-in speakers. The sound quality is excellent and does not distort at higher volumes. I was using a wireless Bluetooth speaker but I have switched over to using LG's internal speaker on this monitor which also uses this technology called Waves MaxxAudio. The clarity for someone with less than 20/20 vision is impeccable. There are many settings options such as Custom, Cinema, Vivid, HDR Effect, FPS, RTS, and a reader mode (that has that sort of tablet sepia color to it). I will generally use the Custom feature. I like the Super Resolution+ and Black Level settings as it makes the text stand out better. Under Settings, Picture, Color Adjust, there is a Gamma feature with four separate modes. Choosing Mode 3 enhances text clarity even further and is what I am currently using. Other features include the ability to tilt the monitor forward and back. It does not have an option to raise the height of the monitor and if I had to list any cons that are literally the only one I can think of. On the rear of the monitor where the ports are there is a USB-C port which could be used to charge any devices that use a USB-C charge cable. This is definitely a monitor I would recommend for anyone to use and I mean that especially if you are working from home or for any businesses seeking to upgrade their current monitors for their employees. This is such a major space saver being able to use this one monitor and it looks so much cleaner as well.

I'm always reluctant to purchase the first production run of a new product, but I've been using SW240 for a couple of weeks -- enough time to report that it is a first class monitor with accurate and repeatable results. No dead/stuck pixels; uniform brightness and sharpness. Each monitor is factory-measured for gray-scale and color deviation from standard RGB profiles. In my cse the deviation was imperceptible (delta-E 1). This was borne out by custom calibration/verification using (provided) calibration software that writes (flashes) results into the monitors LUT for storage. Note that used must provide their own colorimeter-puck for custom calibration. On the down side, the documentation could be better; and Technical Support staff could be a bit more available, and more knowledgeable. While the monitors OSD menus are quite comprehensive (more than a dozen color profiles), they somewhat cumbersome. On balance, a very good wide-gamut monitor with built-in LUTs, at a very good price (made even better by the included $100 monitor hood - see separate review).

We use this case at my work to transport an expensive monitor around, with the custom foam it's well protected and stays dry as a bone in the worst rain. Pelicans are great, would never use anything less!
