IMR Audio : Sonic Adventures & Impressions
Actually yes. Here you can read a bit more about the way things work https://pudding.cool/2022/06/streaming/ One interesting side note on the mechanic beneath: the numbers of streams via free accounts count as well as those of the paid premium accounts (in the example given 58% free vs 42%...- zikarus

IMR Audio : Sonic Adventures & Impressions
In these cases - if you like the musician - one should always consider buying, especially via Bandcamp. I recently watched a TV documentary and was very surprised that even mid-famous artists earn close to nothing from the streaming services we all use. Earnestly really ridiculous numbers. I...- zikarus

IMR Audio : Sonic Adventures & Impressions
Another point that comes to my mind concerning the sibilance discussion is the Enigmas transparency. I just had a session with them yesterday and again encountered no sibilance issues, but recognized how sensitive the Enigmas display whether you listen to a good or bad recording...- zikarus

IMR Audio : Sonic Adventures & Impressions
I encounter no treble problems at all with my Enigma+, but do sometimes with other IEM (so that it cannot be due to my older ears, I guess). I remember that I had some problems with the Elan+. Still use the stock black² filters btw. Maybe there is some kind of production variance? What usually...- zikarus

After not hearing the 3T for a few days and just having been switching back and forth between Aehta and DTE900 for a while you made me remember and grab for the 3T once again. And - as always - it immediately clicked with my brain and doesn't stop to amaze me. Such an enjoyable listen with it's...- zikarus

If that collection includes the Osmo Vänskä recordings you are in for a treat :) Especially the lesser known chorus like this one are worth a listen... -

I am with @helloh3adfi and @nikbr. The NP has a nice bass for an all BA, but If you want basshead levels of bass the Aehta is the AüR for you...- zikarus

Hard to let go from the still burning in Aehta but today arrived my first Clan cable and Gordie did a great job on it! So I took the chance and hooked that well crafted beauty up to my just a few days old Himalaya - great combo...- zikarus

The Watercooler -- Impressions, philosophical discussion and general banter. Index on first page. All welcome.
Very nice impressions, thank you for that. I am so close to pull the trigger 🤣 I guess I already would have - even blindly - if I had not bought (and meanwhile received) this little and - to my mids focused ears - very promising and due to 3 switches versatile shiny.... Needs to burn in though...- zikarus

AÜR AUDIO IEMs
OK guys. First hour in ootb and I know I am going to like these. Abel did it once more... 😃 First observation: these have a lot of bass. Very good. Already look forward to the burn in of the DDs. Second observation, leading to a first decision: the mids in 000 were a bit to recessed for my...- zikarus
