Sennheiser IE800 IEM's
I can't disagree with this statement, as I too have the Vesper mmcx modified IE800. It has a bit of a cobbled together look, which led me to purchase the IE900 when it came out to have a more finished OEM look with, hopefully, slightly improved sound quality. The thing is, I keep going back to...- NewMexiCat

Recommend CIEM for HD800S Lover
Maybe I didn't explain too coherently in my original post. I have no issues with the sound of either the IE800 or IE900. Love them both. My issue is with the fit and comfort of universal IEMs, so I am trying to determine what custom IEM would most closely replicate the sound qualities of the...- NewMexiCat

Recommend CIEM for HD800S Lover
Again, if I'm not mistaken, the A8000 is a universal fit IEM, and I'm looking for recommendations from the CIEM field. I will throw out two that I am considering, and the CIEM crowd can tell me if I'm on the right track: UERR or, if I want to spend a little more, Noble Audio Kaiser Encore...- NewMexiCat

Recommend CIEM for HD800S Lover
I love the HD800S for home listening and have gone through a lot of IEM's, including IE800 and IE900 in an effort to replicate the HD800 sound signature for portable use, but I seem to have recurring issues with fit and comfort, so I want to give customs a try. I always lean toward "best bang...- NewMexiCat

Ultrasone Panther Anyone?
Thank you sir! Two years after my inquiry, I still can find very little critical analysis of this DAC/amp. Looking forward to your review and what headphones/IEMs you have paired with the Panther.- NewMexiCat

Reply to review by 'NewMexiCat' on item 'FiiO Q5s TC (Type-C)'
Thank you for the great review, this amp is definitely on my radar! I have a bluetooth question. Is the iPhone still limited to an inferior bluetooth codec? Does the Q5s Type-C app alter or fix that in any way? I would like the convenience option of bluetooth, but given that my source is an...- NewMexiCat

AirPods Max
I'm interested, but at that price, certainly won't pre-order. I don't like the design, but could live with the space gray version as it looks the least "toy-like." I am a big fan of the AirPods Pro. I know there are obviously better sounding options, but they are just so darn easy to use with...- NewMexiCat

Ultrasone Panther Anyone?
So I'm in the market for a balanced portable DAC/amp that is MFi Apple certified for easy use with my iPhone, and while I am very familiar with the FiiO models and a few other alternatives, the Ultrasone Panther has caught my attention and seems to check a lot of boxes. Problem is there is very...- NewMexiCat

Sennheiser IE800 IEM's
Yes, Vesper Audio is in Europe. I have sent my IE800 to them for the MMCX recable job, but don't have them back yet. I have heard nothing but good things about Vesper. The only downside, for those of us in the US, is you have to be very patient waiting for shipping.- NewMexiCat

Sennheiser IE800 IEM's
So, I've had my IE800 for almost 7 years now, and for me it is the best sounding IEM I've ever experienced. But, they've been languishing in the box for a couple of years now because I got fed up with fit issues. I just never could settle on tips that would: (1) consistently stay in my ears...- NewMexiCat

Oppo Digital shutting down operations.
I am shocked by this and when I first saw it reported on the internet, I thought it was an April Fool's joke. I've purchased just about every universal player they have released over the years and have loved every one of them. I had not yet pulled the trigger on the UDP-205 since my BDP-105...- NewMexiCat

Schiit Mjolnir headphone amplifier
My experience with the Mjolnir and HD800 combo has been quite good using the Oppo BDP105 as my source going all balanced to the amp. I find the combination to be incredibly neutral and transparent. There is plenty of authoritative and accurate bass slam and I find the high end to be troblesome...- NewMexiCat

Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp
Quote: rawrster, obviously you preferred the Mjolnir to the V200. However, does the "slight aggression" of the Mjolnir ever lead to fatigue while listening to the HD800's? I just wondered if you ever missed the "slight warmth" of the V200 in taming the highs on the HD800?- NewMexiCat
