Lost my IEMs
I fly almost weekly, sometimes with the USA, often to Europe and Israel from Miami. About a year ago I purchased the Shure SE530, and no doubt they made the trips a lot more enjoyable. Before that I had the Shure E4 and was happy with them, but after buying the 530s I just kept the E4s as...- mas215

Ex audiophile needs advice on headphone system
Hi, I was a devoted audiophile for most of my life. I was forced to sell off my entire system a couple of years ago for financial reasons. I have been listening to music primarily through a portable system consisting of an Ipod classic (apple lossless), a Corda move 2 amp, and a pair of...- cpetrillo

DNA Sonett Review
I've been at this hobby for about a year now; I've found my favourite cans out of many: Grado HF-2s. But I decided I had to find the perfect amp for them. I've listened to many amps, most of which are recommended for Grados: Eddie Current EC/SS, Millet Hybrid, Gilmore Lite. I tried a four year...- punkaroo

BA vs. Dynamic drivers: A discussion
This thread is created to avoid derailing already-established threads. It also provides a platform for all who wish to talk about this subject. I personally believe that BA can crank out a ton of details, but its naturalness and ease at producing music cannot reach that of a dynamic driver.- 3602

Are We At The End Of The Line For IEM SQ Improvements?
I mean, really, what else is to be improved upon when cramming drivers into a cubic centimeter? About 8 years ago, ER4 and E4 and Super Fi Pro were the best we could get. Then came SE530 and TFPro which were clearly upgrades. Then 2 years later came W3 and then UM3X, SM3, GR8, CK10, X10...- Spyro

From someone who doesn't care about backing up his purchase with flare :) In all honesty, I've heard HD650s (which I think are near perfect), Shure SE530 (way too dark and need high frequency boost), and a bunch of other stuff that I rank below these, so there's no point in mentioning...- JAG87
