    Violectric V222 and V202

    Ummmmm, that's V550 pricing, I think that makes my decision a little easier.

    Violectric V222 and V202

    I'm very intrigued as to the tuning profile they will use for V324 in comparison to the V550, primarily do they go the neutral route or the warm route. The one thing I love on the V550 is the gain settings for line out, that is such a rare feature and ideal for amp pairing.

    Violectric V222 and V202

    So glad I waited before upgrading to the V550, love the look and feature set on the V324, any news on release date?

    FiiOxJadeAudio KA1/KA11 Compact Portable DAC and Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    We're on 0.8 already!?, I thought 0.7 was the latest, I'm currently on 0.6, I would like volume control in the app. (Android), Just grabbed the 0.8 FW off Fiio's site.

    FiiOxJadeAudio KA1/KA11 Compact Portable DAC and Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    Received mine today, Managed to snap up the last one from a UK online retailer, really impressed it thus far powering the Grado SR325x, shame there is no gain levels in the app as I'm at comfortable listening level at just 2-3 volume clicks up from 0! edit - If someone could send me the 0.7...

    Moondrop in-ear monitors Impressions Thread

    I've just finished watching Resolve's review, He also says that the default prolife on the DSP cable is a lot better than the analogue profile, he also mentions that he wishes that they (Moondrop/Crin) had been able to achieve the sound of the defaut DSP profile in analogue form but this is...

    Moondrop in-ear monitors Impressions Thread

    Ummm, not sure what to think about the DSD cable situation, what is the power output of the cable? This is a bit annoying for those like myself that like to use their IEMs with their own amp/dac, Mojo 2 being my prefered choice, not sure I'm a fan of this trend from Moon drop, I think the...

    I really take issue with DMS's review, he loved the Gado SR325x, his words "I love this headphone, I bought this headphone I'm gonna be keeping this headphone", and then in the Headphone Show's 'the GIANT headphone tier list (end of 2023)' DMS rates it 'D' while the rest of the guys rate it 'how...

    Loving the SR325X, absolutely loving it, is it 'better' than all my other headphones, no, definitely not, but it's a headphone where I just find myself enjoying the music without analyzing everything, and that's a breath of fresh air, takes me back to why I got into this hobby, music.

    I'm not sure so sure, I just feel today that we have more choice at the top end, the ceiling is higher but that doesn't mean we have to be always reaching for it, I hear people saying all the time, "mobile phones these days cost a fortune!" while clasping an iPhone 15 Max in their hands!, no...

    Grado Fan Club!

    Received the SR325X's today, First impressions are they beat the SR225e for me which was a big surprise, much better layering and separation, wider soundstage than the SR225e, more weight to the lower mids and upper base, but still distinctly Grado in those upper mids and lower treble pulling...

    Grado Fan Club!

    From everything I've read moving from the V590 to the V222 you will experience a different sound signature, more bass impact, slightly rolled of highs, and less soundstage, imo you'd be better off going to the V550 if you want to retain the same sound, but then moving from the 590 to the 550 you...

    Just grabbed a pair of SR325x's for only £160 unused open box, couldn't say no for that price, looking forward to comparing them with the SR225e which is a gem.

    Interesting, you're thinking of going from the the V590 to a V222 or V281, I'm thinking of going from a V202 to a V550, out of interest what are you looking for with the exchange in terms of sound? I'm assuming bass, warmth?

    Exceptional in Every Detail: Say Hello to the IE 600

    Final thing I would say, and I think others would agree, if you can't walk and keep your IEMs in then they are not fitting correctly, I would not own an IEM if this was the case for me, with an IEM you should be able to do a headshake test and they stay firmly in, if they do not and you can't...

    Exceptional in Every Detail: Say Hello to the IE 600

    Ok, that explains a lot to be honest, coming from a true wireless bud and RS1 then yes, I can understand why you described the IE600 as you have done, this may sound like a stupid question but are you wearing them correctly, have you worn IEMs that hook over ears previously? I know some people...

    Exceptional in Every Detail: Say Hello to the IE 600

    These IEM's are obviously not for you, I find myself scratching my head reading your description of them, "sound like a telephone", "thin", "bass shy", I know people have preferences but these descriptions fall so far from the tree they are in a another forest imo, it makes no sense to me. Out...

    Aful Performer Impressions Thread

    I don't think anyone is criticising the technical prowess of the P8, I think technically it's an amazing IEM, this recent topic was more about the 'timbre' specifically of the P8 and BA's in general, to be fair timbre is something that a lot of headphones/iem's don't do well imo, I think most...

    Aful Performer Impressions Thread

    I think tuning can help a lot but ultimately in my experience BA timbre is real, also regarding the M-9 didn't Sony design the BA's themself rather than using just off the shelf one? Could of been a sign that what was out there wasn't up achieving what they wanted with regards to having a more...

    Aful Performer Impressions Thread

    Funnily enough I just 'upgraded' to the IE600 from the P8, my main issue being BA timbre with the P8, other than that it's fantastic IEM, I actually just received the KBEAR 16 core pure copper cable today to try with the P8, testing it out there is definitely a small improvement in note weight...

    Exceptional in Every Detail: Say Hello to the IE 600

    I only got my mine today, they were second-hand so already burnt in, coming from the P8 they sound warm to me, the timbre is amazing, best I've heard thus far, very natural sounding mids, insane bass, sparkly treble but non-fatiguing, it's been a long IEM journey for me trying to find something...

    Exceptional in Every Detail: Say Hello to the IE 600

    That doesn't make sense, I just got the IE 600's and they sound 'warmer' than my Aful P8's, some people have an issue with the stock tips where by the silicon folds/crinkles when pushed in your ear canal and doesn't create a seal.

    Out of interest was a fulller sound something you was looking for? Will be interesting to see your thoughts after a few more days of testing.

    Violectric V222 and V202

    Please don't take this the wrong way, but there comes a point when you've got to just take a plunge and try it out for yourself, we can only explain so much here, the bass is punchy, impactful, well controlled, fast but it's not what I'd call tight in a mid-centric 'analytical' sounding way, you...
