I think I am trending to this. I am not an adopter of the Harmon +10-12 db pinna gain in most iem sets. It confounds me to think that a handful (under 20 so they say) random "experienced listener" employees of Harmon came up with the curve for iems. That in comparison to 200+ normal folks...

Looking for dirt cheap IEMs that have a signature similar to Dunu Titan S. Price point target under $30 and avail on azon or ebay, no Ali Express. I know I will not get an exact match but really anything with a little bump in the lows and a harmonish push around 3k without exciting 5-6khz too...

I am dumbfounded. I can make a google voice call with the PC but have to talk really loud to be able to hear myself. Adjusting the listening property in Win 10 and checking the listen box gets me my voice in the earpieces but with a lovely (not) echo. What the heck do I have to do to make a...

Hi Folks, long time member looking for a budget iem recs under $100 for use with my LG G7. Use case is outdoors on walks, so obviously bass above flat to counter ambient noise and footfalls. Prior iems that fit great were Shure se-215 and Westone UM3X, ones that did not AT-E40 & Carbo Tenore...

Thanks again to ASR for organizing the event.  I was able to stop by and listen for a very short time.  Great to see all the old and new faces.   To Arteom, ASR and Einstein? :  The 400S you heard were not stock, they did have the Focus A pads, which I feel make them a lot more extended in the...

Anyone else having a problem getting to the Inner Fidelity site?  Or is it only me.  I tried another browser but cannot connect for last day or so.

I noted in a post in Macedonian Hero's mega thread on closed portable type headphones that I would start a thread in order to help folks that were contemplating purchase of a pair of closed circumaural portable headphones.  Many potential buyers like "on the ears" or supra-aural headphones and...

Having issues with headfi pages not loading in chrome over the last week of so.  Works fine then all of a sudden when I try to load a new window all the headfi windows go completely white with no content whatsoever.  When trying to reload any of them I get messages at the bottom of the screen...

I have heard lots of headphones at meets yet two that are on my short list I have not.  I am looking to upgrade from Shure 840s for dedicated desktop system with SPL Phonitor and good dac.  I have heard the Beyer 880s at RMAF but they were 32 ohm I believe.  A bit bright but the most pleasing...

I know you see hundreds of which opamp posts and I have read lots of them,  but I need some specific advice.     I have a JDS Labs Cmoy ver 2.02 with two TLE2426 rail splitters and gain set to 3.  I plan to use my Westone UMX-3 with the single 9 volt battery and want to try an opamp that is...

I am selling my HTC HD2 and need some ideas for a new smartphone for T-Mobile.  Must have good webkit based browser or the ability to load good browser.  Also need 3g and want to tether natively to a mac.   Looking at Blackberry 9700, Nokia E73, HTC 3g mytouch slide, and Moto Clic XT.  ...

I just wanted to let folks know that there is a new music player for Mac users that is better than itunes for playback (in my opinion) on high quality systems. I found out about it from another forum and have been playing with the demo for several days now. I like the sound quality a lot...

Just an FYI, Costco online has the Creative Zen MX 16GB at $99 For the next 20 days. Creative selling for $149 online. Don't ask me about how it sounds because I have never heard it. Update: Apparently it has no FM radio.

I have a LOD that I fell on while hiking and crunched the ipod connector. Of course now I don't get sound unless I twist it all sorts of ways. I kind of want to keep it since it has Jena wire and sounds pretty good. Can a helpful Headfier help repair this LOD for me? I am pretty sure the whole...

Can someone help me identify this cut? Is it a commercial release? YouTube - Bikery 3

Not as good of a deal as the Sansa Clip 8GB but for those who might want a bit more screen real estate and SD slot. $79.99 at Costco online. And let's not tell all the other "deal" sites this time, OK!

I need some help identifying a possible fake CD I purchased on Amazon used marketplace. Seller is shipping from Czech Republic and uses Falls Church return address. I bought two cds recently from this seller and one looks fake but maybe it is legit. The cd in question is Okie Dokie It's...
