Main Disc. Thread - Project Solace Public Test

I do like this better.

Dizziness was less. Definite “feel good” effect.

Used headphones: Audio Technica ATH M20x

I prefer Solace A by a lot. Solace A just has a certain magic.

I would not pay $30 dollars for a Solace B mask, but in general Bv2 is definitely better than v1 in my opinion.

Tested on Status Audio Between Pros.

Easily, Solace A beats all the other masks in SC right now. I also concur that it is worth the $30 and not Solace B.

@friday @SubliminalUser what is it you like about Solace A versus Solace B?

Chiming in even though I wasn’t tagged.

For me, A is much more relaxed. It’s just so lovingly “silent.” Real background noise you don’t even really notice. Plus I like the “feeling” of the jungle with the animals. It has something calming to it.

Solace B is more “active.” Louder. More “in your ear.”

Solace A I sometimes forget I am actually listening to a sub. With B I will always notice, much like the legacy mask.

Also going to chime in on this as I listened to all three and I much prefer Solace A too. I didn’t want to put my opinion in as most people went with B but realised that’s exactly the reason I should.

What @AlexanderGraves said is completely my reasoning too.

Much prefer the quieter sound, especially when listening during sleep.

Thanks for speaking up @AlexanderGraves.

Agreed.

I can understand this.

Thing is I think those water droplets for Solace A are so percussive. They go from very quiet to “droplet sound”, and it feels like a very spikey sound envelope.

I’d recommend deleting this and sending a PM/and support ticket just so others don’t see this.

Great feedback. I’m a bit perturbed that some of you feel like you can’t give honest, critical feedback about Solace [B]. Please do not feel that way. We are a consumer focused company, meaning we place the desires of our patrons before all else. Doesn’t mean we’ll always do exactly what you want, but we’ll definitely consider it.

Based off the feedback in this thread, we’ve already come to the conclusion that Solace [A] will remain an option for Q customs and will soon be removed from experimental status.

[B] and the upcoming [C] test will stay in testing and will probably become extra options. Remember, the long term goal is for name embedding and customer choice in ALL our products. This time next year (or before), when you purchase from the main store, you’ll be able to choose which mask you want (among other customizations) and the order will be built on the fly.

Keep that in mind when evaluating the masks. They aren’t replacing anything. It’s about customer choice. We are going to revisit the legacy / standard mask, though. It can be upgraded to sound much less harsh on the ears, but that occur around Q+.

Subclub has developed so much. Can someone imagine! Other producers took 4-5 years to build only a single update ! Lol while subclub from 2019 to 2021 , they made a huge difference. Listening sublimininals From 8hrs a day to 1 loop every other alternative day :scream::scream:. Though sometimes there were problems of recon but I don’t think Q+ will hold any problem like that (wanted and SG already surprised everyone). Amazing! I have never witnessed such updates in any product /thing except Minecraft ;)). Haha.
Congratulations!

Sorry I haven’t been around and am late to comment on it, I really like this revision, it is my favorite mask so far. Very airy and relaxing without being distracting, it feels like a lot is going on yet it doesn’t call to much attention to it. Nothing really for me to complain about at all.

Again tested with my Sennheiser
