Hi Ian, hope all is well. Apologies for late response. Yep the Genus V2 are a great IEM for that price point. With regard to the T5 i would say that Rock Jaw kept the same sound signature to a wireless headphone. The tuning filters do the same job as the Genus. Probably a bit bass heavy but its...

Hi Ian, will have a comprehensive review posted here in the next few days. Initial thoughts are positive. Will give you some feedback to your questions a little later once i have listened to them a little further. Voxie

Hi all, I am currently in the process of posting a review on the T5. Should have it up during the next few days. All positive so far. Of course will have a comprehensive and detailed view then. In the meantime your more than welcome to post me some questions. Voxie

Hi Mark, within your requirements and budget maybe check out Fiio's range of Dap's and FinalAudio E Series iems.

Hi, check out the FinalAudio E Series. esp the 4000 / 5000 models.

Some great advise from @sermman005.. maybe check out the FinalAudio E S

Hi, add the SoundMAGIC HP151 to your list. Best of luck.

Maybe check out Final Audios E Series.

The Final Audio E4000 is well worth checking out if you are on the hunt for a pair of iems.

As @buke9 who is a extremely respected member on Head-fi.. I have never had an issue with the build quality re Final Audio products. All strain areas are well made and robust. I too have the HE-400s another great iem that is worth looking into.

Final Audio call this "Ageing" and have a page on its website describing exactly how it, over time, effects the sq of their headphones. In a positive way. interesting reading. So maybe we can keep this tread focussed to the original question. its becoming an ego fest!

Yep, I understand. Have bought Final Audio products through the years and in truthfulness I never had to claim. They are a serious player in the audiophile community and not some ChiFi company that one has never heard of. I purchased my Final iems from Amazon who in fairness have a good return...

Having had the E4000 for a few months they shine with a bit more power that said the E2000 is a great piece of kit esp for price.

Yep, I heard that as well but I took the plunge on the e4000 and am very impressed. re... Isolation, I find them perfect for my personal listening environment. They really shine with a bit of oomph when playing say through a phone though.

Hi, maybe check out the new Final Audio range esp the E4000 and the E5000 models. A recent review was posted here comparing the two. With regard to a DAC/AMP I'm not too up to speed but FIIO would be a good reference point. Am sure other members will chime in to help.

Hi, what's your budget on the iems? Also what will be your source and music tastes.

That's a great list.. 10cc a very underrated band. Thanks for the share.

Complexly agree, there are my first high end phones. They need a nuclear reactor for them to reach full potential. They really shine with classical music. Glad to hear that you are enjoying them. Thanks for the post.

Hi, type " Headphones for metal music - ultimate solution" into the search field.
