Reply to review by 'ASG' on item 'Astell&Kern JH Audio Siren Series Layla'
You really are a bit of an idiot aren't you to think that flat frequency response is not desired. It is the holy grail of audio. Layla's are not perfect but they are as close to perfect compared to others. Go back to your cheap coloured phones that are "more fun" you really aren't qualified to...- ASG

Sure SE-535 how to reseal and are they genuine?
Hi I bought these SE-535 earphones off eBay as refurbished. They do sound decent. However one of them has cracked open and after snapping it back together everytime I remove that earphone from my ear it breaks open again and not only is a hassle it increases the likelihood that I might break a...- ASG

Live & Recording IEM advice please
Quote: Apologies to Jerry Harvey! I meant JH. I guess too many late nights and my use of JbL for years in PA's overode the H! Oh I thought the RE0's owned UM3X RC's I had for a few months in terms of flat frequency response so I sold them!- ASG

Are (High-end) Custom IEMs Overrated?
Quote: Obviously the enclosure is very important but assuming it is done decently at the low or mid range it will be less important than the drivers used. Most people here aren't going as high end os you. I agree digital X-over with sprectrum analysed EQ is the go. The new JH 16...- ASG

Are (High-end) Custom IEMs Overrated?
Quote: As a studio engineer myself I can say that this is a ridiculous statement. An engineer might have a listen to how a mix sounds on a set of can's but none of them are required to make a quality recording OR to "listen and fully appreciate" the music. Most mixes & listening are done...- ASG

Best all rounder for under $300
Quote: Get anything from HiFiMan. I sold my UM3X's after hearing even their $79 jobbie the RE0 ... extremely natural flat frequency response like good studio monitors. Not designed to peak anything. Some prefer the RE Zero limited but the RE 262's are meant to be amazing though to shine...- ASG

Review: Head-Direct RE0
I trashed my Westone UM3X RC's after "downgrading to cheap RE0's I am used to listen to spectrum analysed & room EQ'd studio monitors and these are the flattest in ears I have heard so far. I know I am a wanker but most people have no idea what flat accurate frequency response is ...- ASG

Live & Recording IEM advice please
Hi guys, Currently I have Head-Direct RE0's for use with the iPhone. I am looking at going IEM live and recording live video/audio demos. I know the Ultimate would be JL Audio or something but I need to keep the budget down for now. A big issue is looks, comfort and leakage into the mic so...- ASG
