Own LCD-X, considering aeolus and Arya
Very late in getting back but having lived with both for several months, they are fantastic compliments to each other. The LCD is thicker and feels like it has more weight behind it while the Arya feels light and airy, moving effortlessly and incredibly clear and detailed. Both have superb sound...- Mcarter3

DT1990 How to change the pads?
You need something to pry the retainer off the housing. It simply pops off. Once you get 1 out the rest of the tabs come easier. Put the new pads on the retainer before reinstalling. Once you have done it once, it takes 30 seconds.- Mcarter3

IEMs for electronic and bass heavy music
Update for any future readers looking for similar things: Picked up a pair of JVC FX700 and got an open box set of westone 4r. Picked up an O2 amp while I was at it because I always wanted to try one out and also wanted to be using the LOD of my ipod while I was comparing. FX700-...- Mcarter3

IEMs for electronic and bass heavy music
Alright, plan going forward is to get a pair of JVC-FX700 as they are largely reviewed as the iem equivalent of my D7000's. To compare with it I will also get a pair of either the W4's or the PFE 232 (maybe something else, still deciding) and I will decide what I want to keep. Not that...- Mcarter3

IEMs for electronic and bass heavy music
Ok, I could use some more insight here. New phones on my radar - UE 900, PFE 232. Westone 4 or 4r are looking good as well as from what I read they will do a better job with instrument separation, sound stage and refinement in the mids, sacrificing some bass quantity while improving the quality...- Mcarter3

IEMs for electronic and bass heavy music
The SE535 has been on my radar before, everything I have read has been that that was a mid focused iem and might be lacking in the bass department, but I am not sure. How does the low end compare from westone 3 to 4, is it a big or little step down? I did like the low end on the 3's but...- Mcarter3

IEMs for electronic and bass heavy music
Been quite a while since I have been on the site.

That was until my portable rig was stolen ... At this point...- Mcarter3

Hate to throw a wrench into things but have you considered going for in ear monitors for portable needs? With good fitting ear tips you will get incredible isolation. If you are patient and keep up with the for sale forums and Ebay you could get a used pair of D5000's for home use and a pair of...- Mcarter3
