ES-R10 closed back dynamic headphone Sony R10 Replica Discussion/Impressions
As a long-time fan of the Sony R10's, my audition of the ES-R10 at CanJam earlier this year was disappointing. I just didn't hear the magic of the original R10's (from memory). I don't know how well run-in the sample I heard was, but given it was a vendor's table, I presume it had some head-time...- jpelg

Ultrasone Fan Club! (Roll Call)
Hey Patrick - those Ed11's, with bio-cellulose drivers & a unique housing, seem to be completely different than any of the prior Proline/Pro/Edition lines: Never had an opportunity to see or hear them. Glad you are enjoying.- jpelg

Introducing the LCD-i3
All this iPhone vs. Android cable discussion is amusing. Instead, I find it more strange that a company double-down on the need for DSP equalization on its headphones at all, thus tying it to a phone or PC app for best response. This leaves those of us just wanting to use the analog-out of a...- jpelg

If you still love Etymotic ER4, this is the thread for you...
...that I have found some pleasant synergy with the ER4S's plugged into the 120-ohm output of my headphone amp. I'm afraid the newer models might not scale/synergize as well with the higher-impedance output. Maybe I'll try to find a new-old-stock ER4S? Maybe I'll try something else altogether...- jpelg

Monolith M300 In Ear Planar Earphones
Thanks to the recommendations in this thread, I received the Audeze "groove kit" yesterday. The Audeze iSine hooks are thinner & more flexible than the Monoprice stock hooks, but don't break when you flex them to fit over your ear. They don't pinch either. They've taken the M300 to "wearable for...- jpelg

Fender IEM (Aurisonics) Impressions, Reviews & Discussions Thread
Surprised at the recent price cuts on the FXA7. Personally, I'm waiting for a drop on the FXA9, as (based on limited reviews) they seem to have a signature more to my taste.- jpelg

Official New York Spring Meet - June 10, 2017 - impressions
So glad I made the trek down from CT for another one of Tom's (bozebutton) fantastic meets. He is probably the most selfless Head-Fier I know, working tirelessly to keep the NY headphone scene at the high level that it has always been. Vendor participation was great, with representation by many...- jpelg

Official New York Spring Meet Sat June 10 2017

Shure KSE1500 Review - Shure KSE1500 Sound Isolating Electrostatic Earphones
With regard to more widespread adoption (or perhaps lack thereof), I think that electrostatic portables are a very niche market. Stax's own SRS-001 & SRS-002 models were never as prevalent in the wild as other portable technologies. The KSE-1500 has the added hurdle of a very premium price point...- jpelg

Upgrade from Ultrasone Pro 750 / should I invest in an amp instead?
Since you are willing to get an open headphone for home use, I'd suggest that you get the Ultrasone PRO2500 (used or new-old-stock) or PRO2900 headphone, along with an O2 DAC/amp combo. The 2500/2900 will have similar characteristics that you are used to from the 750 (and won't get in any of...- jpelg
