Joker,
 
I saw you hadn't reviewed the TDK BA200 yet. I recently got a pair from Ross for $25, but already have the RE-262. They are pretty amazing, but they will compete with my 262s and HE300 for play. I say this because if you are ever interested in demoing the BA200, I'd be more than willing to lend them to you.

Could you do a quick comparison between the two iems, even if only brief impressions?

  I just recieved my SS flux and they are absolutely unbelievable. I can't belive that so powerful sound is comming from so tiny IEM's. Thanks for input joker. Without your thread and your review, I would never consider "gaming" earphones for listening to music but they are just brilliant. Thanks again for this. Im so happy :*

Thanks - it appears I actually have someone else sending me a pair for review now but I really appreciate the offer!

Do you mind if I do it in about a week or so? I'm in finals week for grad school and swamped with school.

Wow on the 4s review. Makes the 4 universal certainly look like a steal. It won't be as good in fit or sound exactly like the custom (especially the silicone) but will have the availability of tip tuning so neutral and informative with a personal twist at $450 sure sounds appealing.

  I wonder if I should upgrade my DAC when the JH13 arrive. I had ordered a Fiio E17 but decided to cancel it. I'm using a laptop and I want to have a small DAC, not necessarily portable but small. The Audioquest Dragonfly is interesting (about $70 with promos). Anyone have some recommendations? Prefer USB and neutral

Been listening to the HRT Microstreamer for a couple of months now and really like what I hear.  It's a very small USB DAC (+ headphone amp) with a big, clear and detailed sound.

I love my Microstreamer.  I might jump on the new Leckerton in a few months but I'm very happy with the Microstreamer performance right now (I'm only using C/IEMs not full sized cans).

Yes. They actually sound quite good but I don't like the fit so they probably won't get a full review.
 
Very smooth sound though, but perhaps a little dull up top. Reminds me of an RHA MA750 with not nearly as much bass.

Joker, what's the best sounding hybrids you've heard so far? Thanks again for this amazing job you're doing!

The Rooth LS5X Demo. Among proper universals, the K3003.

Indeed - hope it's as good as the 4S!

I would think the fact that it is silicone makes a difference in the sonics. The 4 universal is supposedly an improvement over the Hier 4ai which eas supposedly good, but according to several reviewers I know, not THAT good.

Thanks for responding. can you give me a brief comparison between r3 and some thing that you already have done a review (like b2 or something else)?
