Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
With 3,5mm hole felt mod the hd58x gets less warm yet smoother. Very similiar to HD660s ( which I had for one week) with better subbass-extension. If the HD58X performs 90% of HD660s, then with said mod it is now 98-99%. What a steal this headphone is!- JohannLiebert

Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
One of the best headphone purchases I've ever made. Had the likes of HD800s, Andromeda, T5p and PP8. I don't remember how much better they are in technicalities than the HD58x but once u fall into the trap wanting to compare everything - u will lose a lot of money. As it stands now.. the HD58x...- JohannLiebert

Radsone EarStudio ES100
It doesnt work on my laptop as USB-DAC somehow. It plays music for the first seconds absolutely fine and then there is "on sound" and then the music completely disappears. Nvm: it was connected as bluetooth to my brothers laptop yesterday and once I start it automatically reconnects to the...- JohannLiebert

Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread
For me the E5000 is the best sounding inear below the 500€ price bracket if you like smooth sound with a good soundstage. This and my Andromeda will hopefully serve me well in the next years.- JohannLiebert

I find only the stock tips to work with the E5K. Symbios and jvs make them sound horribly bloated. But with the stock they are one of my favorites across all price ranges.- JohannLiebert

[unboxing] KEF LS50 Wireless
Well they are on the smoother side. They won't throw details on you like Adam Monitors for example would or any headphones. Still it is all a preference game. I think they are wonderful at what they are doing.- JohannLiebert

Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread
Just got them. First thought: Screw all the "customlike" Inears. This is the holy grail of comfort. The con for some might be that you won't be able to lie on the side with them. Very coherent tuning as expected from a single dynamic driver. Soundstage gets a double plus, really spacious and...- JohannLiebert

Does the E5000 have less midbass than Xelento? Xelentos midbass was putting me off, way too much imo.- JohannLiebert

I only care about sound coming the outside since my volume levels are only moderate. The massdrop + had pretty claustrophobic soundstage for me. Fiio FH5 was slightly better in this regard. If the E5000 improves in this aspect, I am all for it. No need Andromeda level actually :p- JohannLiebert

Is the soundstage of the E5000 really that good? Like Andromeda level?- JohannLiebert

Rank the IEM's you've heard
Maybe new toy syndrom... and I might have forgotten how other IEM's in the past compare to Fiio FH5. Their sound signature is without much fault and resolution isn't lacking at all. Never listened to the Samba @sofa ES5 is more a specialist. I love the with rock and electro music but their...- JohannLiebert

Pretty much that. PP8 has only smaller soundstage, but way better imaging and better 3 dimensionality. Depends on what you prefee, so more a toss up. I also find mids details bettee while andro treble is one of a kind.- JohannLiebert
