    Replacement tips for Etymotic IEM's that don't fall apart so easily

    Best noise isolation for $900 - $1500 (no IEMs)

    I bought a pair of Shure KSE1200 earphones specifically for trips where I need really good noise isolation. I spent months getting a custom silicon sleeve to fit just right for my very peculiar ear canals. However, in the end, I've realized that IEMs / earphones are just not made for my ears. I...

    Looking for a new IEM

    Hey guys, so I'm looking to replace my IEMs. I've gone through a pair of nuforce IEM and the Shure425s and Shure 535s. I liked them both to be honest, but Shures sound isolating and noise cancelling was the best thing I've experienced, along with the design that allowed you to fall asleep with...

    Which pair of headphones is better for noise reduction? 380pro/QC35ii

    I need a new pair of headphones to reduce noise for studying. I had Sennheiser HD380 pro a few years ago that died, and I remember it having somewhat decent noise isolation. Right now, the 380pro, Bose QC35ii and Sennheiser PXC450 are the only headphones I can buy quickly. Most video reviews...

    HF5 or General Eartips Recommendation

    I own a pair of HF5s and I am getting pretty frustrated. The foam tips worked wonderfully for a week aside from irritating my ear canal. $20/month + irritated ears I do not want. Triple flanges were alright but it feels like they're too small. Poor seal, little isolation, but very comfortable...

    USB DAC recommendation to solve noise issues

    So I have a desktop computer, with an external Fulla 2 Schiit as an external DAC and two Yamaha HS7 studio monitors. Sound is very good under normal conditions (except a very faint hiss/white noise from the tweeters when no sound is playing, which I understand is normal for all studio...
