Ships from Canada. Owned for a few months, sounds absolutely beautiful even when paired with a simple AudioQuest Dragonfly Red. Foam ear tips unused, and only the smallest two of the silicone ear tips have been used. Balanced cable was never used, and unbalanced cable has been kept clean and in...

Sorry if this is a long read Basically what the title says. I'm looking for a high end or TOTL IEM that can be worn comfortably under an over-ear headset. I use an Audio Technica BPHS1 (with aftermarket Brainwavz earpads that give my ears more room inside) for when I'm playing online games with...

Shopping around online and looking at different amps, some products list their power specifications as volts, or voltage rms, while others list it in watts. I haven't been able to find any resources online to help me compare the two, outside of the headphone power calculator on Headphonesty...

Ok yes, but I mean for the price. I don't wanna spend 2 grand to have underwhelming bass or harsh treble, or whatever other issue gets pointed out in a review. I get that there's no such thing, but at the very least I want something endgame, where there's no need to look further, or for...

I'm in the market for a new set of headphones for desktop use. Currently I use the Shure SRH1540 hooked up to the headphone output of the Audioengine HD3. Sometimes I use the speakers, sometimes I use the headphones, but I'm hoping to find a headphone that I'll wanna use all the time so the...

I'm looking for fully wireless IEM's, like the Jaybird Run, completely wireless and with an easily pocketable charging case. Sadly, every IEM I've read about so far has had issues in one way or another; they're either too large, the connectivity isn't reliable enough, or there's noticable lag...

I run a game streaming channel on Twitch that broadcasts local gaming tournaments, and part of that involves live commentary on matches that are played on the stream. I currently have two USB headsets that my commentators can use, but the audio quality is only passable, and the headaches I've...

The stock cable for my Shure SE846 recently kicked the bucket, one earphone only having intermittent sound, so I went looking for a replacement, and the man at the local audio store suggested a cable from Mee audio. I forget the exact make of the cable but from a physical perspective it's...

Hi guys. This has probably been discussed earlier in the thread, I don't know how I'd find it, but I'm curious about the noise floor. I recently bought a set of Shure SE846 IEM's and I can hear the noise floor on my original X5 1st Gen very clearly. I've been looking at this because I love...

The problem that the reviewer had was in the conector in the earphone itself getting worn out. Cables are easy to replace, that wouldn't concern me, but the earphone itself is a bit harder to replace I could send the CIEM back to the manufacturer for cleaning as well, but I don't wanna spend...

The last two CIEM's I've owned, the Unique Melody Miracle and the Noble 5S, both only lasted me about a year before problems with the sound tubes (usually blockages that I couldn't remove) forced me to go back to over-ear headphones. The hassle of having to clean out the bores on an almost daily...

Thanks, that's actually gonna make the decision between the 6S and the ES60 a hard one :P but thank you

I'm looking around at options for silicone CIEM's, I currently have a Noble 5S, but it's starting to go through rather bad channel imbalance, and I figure I'd rather see if I can upgrade instead of sending them in for repair again (the first time was due to blockages, but I haven't been able to...

If it was there, I wouldn't have asked the question. The only mention of silicone is regarding the impressions, absolutely nothing about a silicone CIEM

I don't have the time to read through the whole thread, so forgive me if someone's already asked, but is there any news on 3D printing silicone CIEM's? Having used both acrylic and silicone, I have to say I would much rather have a silicone version, but to me it seems like all of the CIEM's you...

for the past couple nights I've been using binaural music meant to aid sleeping, listening to them through my silicone CIEM's. I've intended to take them out before I fall asleep and let myself drift off naturally, but I've ended up falling asleep with them in and only realizing it when I...

Converting a 320kbps file to a higher bitrate won't do anything, but converting a well recorded lossless file to 320kbps and comparing the two will tell you if it's worth investing in higher quality files

The cable on my CIEM's is deteriorating (Noble 5S), and I went to look for replacement cables on their website. They're priced great at $50, the only problem is that they only ship 2-4 weeks after the order has been placed. I only know about a couple of aftermarket cable manufacturers, and...

Thank you so much! I hit the play button on Sons of Somerled and immediately had to start looking for somewhere that would sell a download for it lol

  The HD 449's that I'm using currently have a fairly neutral sound as far as I can tell, good control, but they're also thin-sounding throughout the spectrum. Sibiliance is a difficult thing to judge, because I don't think any of the meditation music I have would bring that out, but it would...

I really like the look of the 770's, but there's gotta be like seven different versions of this thing O.o which one do you mean lol

My primary use for these headphones would be listening to music meant to assist in meditation (binaural theta tones, with mild ambient music overlayed on top), and also generally wearing around the house instead of my custom in-ears (meditating with in-ears, you can feel your pulse, incredibly...

How does it fare with IEM's? I assume it would sound fantastic with larger on ears and over ears, but IEM's would be my primary concern with any good portable amp

Agreed. I live in Metro Vancouver, I ordered my X5 on Sunday and it was waiting for me on Tuesday, it's a fantastic place

Given that it has, as you say, better sound, and I've read it also synergises better with sensitive IEM's, it would seem like a safe bet if I like the e12 vanilla edition, but I will definitely check that thread out, thanks!
