That would be the problem.  Then you'd have to go through and see if the seller would let you test it.  They may have you pay a restocking fee...  Or just say no.

Lool, so I guess at this moment, I am very dependent on reviews/comparisons. Well, it can't be all that bad. I mean, regardless of which one I buy of the three, there's no way that I'll hate it because they all have superb SQ

Yeah but for most people, like me, simply not hating it isn't enough to justify the $4-500 price tag. Hence why I keep playing the buy, try, and return for a loss game.

I see, well, what I mean is, regardless of which I get, I feel like I would end up loving it.

  Yes it would indeed, as distributors and manufacturers have different requirements etc etc

Would be easier to ask Heir but i am not sure they do the whole refund thing but then i am not sure anyone would want to refund a 4.Ai ;)

I'm hoping I love them!

 

I listen to rock, etc...and some have said I should have ordered the 3Ai's...so we'll see I guess.

I have recently heard about an issue with the heir audio 4ai. From what I hear, they have a poor crossover implementation making them sound echoey and messing up the mids...can you verify this?

I thought I heard a bit of that when I first got them, but am not hearing anything like that now. I do pick up a bit of reverb, for lack of a better word, on occasion. But I think that has been more a recording quality issue. I think.

Uhm do you not hear it anymore because your ears have adjusted or is it because it actually isn't there anymore?

I honestly wouldn't bother with that sort of line of questioning, it's the latter, the dip isn't going to magically disappear you just adjust or accept it.

I don't hear any extra decay or echoey sound in the mids at all. There is a dip at 4khz according to fr graphs but lil goes on at the frequency as far as I am aware and it has not effected me in any way. Seeing the GR graph has not changed how I hear it, that's for sure!

little goes on at 4k? Try one of the harmonic regions in female vocals and many instruments, I guess when one really likes a product technical flaws don't matter.
