I have listed my basso's ($60) and vsd1 ($30) or $80 shipped for both, as i picked up a 3month old, lightly used TPeos H-200 for $165 that i couldnt pass up. These should hold me over until i save enough for asg2 or rhapsodio. Thoughht id mention it here has most ppl here know the value and bang per buck these provide.

As for the h200....one of better iems ive heard. I was a lil nervous as i hade the h100 and it was the least favorite ive ever heard.

No hype, just WOW WOW WOW on the marriage of the X1 to the X3. Miles in lossless is stunning!

That means snap them up as quickly as possible before amazon realizes their mistake!

It's not a mistake, they are just cheaper in t he U.S. For about a week it was even cheaper than the $129 for the premium cable one ($92). I'm just waiting for it to arrive.

Mikaveli, you crazy? 1st the 1k's, and now the bassos and vsd1's? You crazy man! You'd have to pry them out of my dead ears lol!

Your saving grace is that the h200's are stellar - especially with the right tips to tame the treble a bit. I love mine. They sure sound different from the 1k's huh? And they really sound different from the h100's!

Let me know what your next step is!

Really want the Asg2 or possibly rhapsodio hybrid. As for tips, i like the vsonic silicon over foam type so far. The translucent stock tips arent bad either, and i havent found anything the meelec biflange dont sound bad with.

I thought the h-100s were absolutely the worst iem ive ever heard lol, but lovin the 200s.

Just in my situation supportin 4kids (15, 13, 3, 3week old) i cant really collect. I get a pair or two, then trade etc etc, so i can hear as many as i can before i invest $600sh on asg2 etc. but i have about a grand to play with due to me in a couple months (plus im in 2nd place for fantasy baseball) so thats gonna be my PS4, asg2, and fiio x3.

And i keep a pair of jvc fx31 for backup

Actually right now the IV is 13,180 yen while the V is 24,299 yen on Amazon Japan, so it's getting close to being twice the price. Seems like the V is really amazing though, for much less than the VI, and it's good to know that bass isn't lacking. I've been kinda wanting a pair of IEMs to compliment my CKS1k and these could definitely be it. Your review on the FAD appreciation thread has been quite convincing to say the least.

Thanks! Not that I'm trying to sell them lol. I also put up a small comparison to the ASG-2 in Eke's review thread if you're interested.

Yea, being over $100 between the prices, I can't say what the difference is and if it's worth it because I've only heard one. Only able to go from what I've read/been told.

I actually wrote that in my G-2 comparison, that they are such a great compliment to eachother.

Anyway, I'd be glad to answer any questions or concerns you have via PM unless people don't mind this thread being derailed. I don't want you to spend that much on something shipped from almost 7000 miles away and hate it lol.

@Mikaveli06... makes perfect sense my friend! Sounds like you have a great plan

a young producer friend of mine asked me for recommendations for a portable production gear set up out of his computer.  what would you sound wizards recommend on a 300$ budget?
i was thinking of something like an ele sac (or something like that) a BH amp or some integrated chinese amp dac unit, and what headphones?  ath 700?  or what?
completely open to suggestions!
thanks for your ideas for Edgar...

Something like this http://www.head-fi.org/t/673606/ibasso-d42-dac-amp-edit-micro-otg-adapter-included-please-read#post_9640141 and a pair of Shure SRH840s
If he wants to save a bit he can go for the SRH440. Both are going to be more accurate to sound mixing than lets say a pair of M50s. The AD700s are not made for studio work. The bass end is a bit limp for that.
 
He actually has a choice on this combo. That Ibasso dac amp on their web site is like $200. That used one is $140. If he goes for the used one he can get the SRH840.. IF he wants to go for a new Ibasso he can go for the SRH440.. EIther way he is looking at a great combo for his needs as far as sound goes for the money.

Just look at my fore sale add.  HUD MX2 is an excellent dac/amp combo.

To anyone who has the cks77x(and xb90ex)...would you say that the cks has mid bass lift?

 

[nekromantik]

Anyone tried the Meelec EDM Universe IEMs yet?

So I've come into a little bit of money and I might be interested in getting another pair of phones. My budget is $200, but I might be able to stretch it a bit. My current primary headphones are the CKN70s, S500s, and AD900X. At the moment the CKS1000s, WS99s, and ES700s are at the top of my list. Should I get one of those or is there something else you guys think I should get?

 

[7S Cameron]

Actually, I might just have to get the X3... Where can I buy it?

 

[mikaveli06]

$199 on amazon
