Good, because I may or may not have slipped him a little something to make sure that’s exactly what you get. Not saying I did, but I might have. You know. Maybe. Might have been My Little Pony.

One is softer than the other, use the one that gives you the best combination of seal and comfort

Well, looks like my 4.As are on their world tour like some others'.
So far they've gone from China to the US and apparently in the middle of clearing customs they decided to stop over in Korea

My impressions arrived at Heir's labs but alas I now have insufficient funds to make the payment :) Now the hard part comes: deciding which color and which wood face plate to choose.

Hey guys,
I've been away from head-fi for a year plus now as I was busy with life. Anyways, I'm by no means a audiophile but long story short.. my original Atrios M5 are falling apart so I need to find a replacement. Do you guys recommend start at 3A and move up later on or save up and just get the 4A?
I have no extensive experience with different types of headphones (but I love my AKG Sextett's). So I don't really have a demand for something particular. Just want something that I can buy and forget about spending money on new phones in the future.
Your input will be appreciated!

The 4.A isn't really an "upgrade" to the 3.A per se as they have different sound signatures.Return HomeBack to Forum: Portable Headphones, Earphones and In-Ear Monitors- Heir Audio - The Appreciation Thread
