For those wondering, I wrapped up the momentums last week so that's what it is!

That is one spoiled little brother, if I dare say it. k701smile.gif

 

Great choice. Maybe he should come to the next meet so we all get to listen to it. tongue_smile.gif

Aha, I can confiscate the headphones for a day, I'm sure of it.

 

For the next meet I may not have my LCD-3's anymore, but I may have either the IE800 or the K3003. I say may.

So why the change to IEMs? Personally I prefer full size headphones, but if I had to spend that much on an IEM, I'd go custom.

Well, I need something good for on the go, even though I really like my RE-272. And I already have the HD800, as you know, and HE-6 which get more head time than the LCD-3's.

 

I was thinking universal because I most likely will sell down the road; and resale is important. Otherwise I was thinking the Fit-ear to go 334.

 

It's hard with customs because you can't really try them out. Right now I'd be inclined to get Spiral Ears SE-5 ways or Dream Ears AUD-7x; but they don't have much reviews going for them. Otherwise something a bit lower like Heir 6.A's or UM Miracles could be good.

 

I'm sure the customs are better than the universals, but at the expense of convenience unfortunately. Also, I get good pricing on AKG and Senn don't forget :P 

 

(And I don't mind have a microphone on my in-ears; very convenient as well!)

 

But first, I need to let go of the Audez'e

He's loving them. Every time I see him when he's not with friends, he has them on.

 

He's getting good use out of them not only from his music but also ipod games and gaming on the xbox secretly in the morning.

 

(I was startled when I realized he knew how to hook up my low end headphone amp/dac to the 360 tongue.gif)

 

 

I'm glad he's actually using them a lot; and I don't think it will change.

LOL! Your brother is such a lucky bastard... And knowing you, your "low end" stuff is probably what most of us call end game! wink.gif
