    Aful Performer Impressions Thread

    I recently received my Aful Performer5 and upon inspection, I noticed that inside the nozzles, the metal tube protrudes more on one side than the other. On one side, the metal tube sits mostly flush with the surrounding plastic, while on the other side, it protrudes quite a bit (maybe ~1.5mm...

    Orthodynamic Roundup

    Oh ok, Thanks! How about for a T50? Would you know roughly what a fair price would be for one? I've seen one go for ~$900 a few years ago, wondering if I should pounce on one if I ever see another one at a similar price. (Was in decent used condition w/ original hardcase)

How much...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    NiceHCK EB2S with full foams may be to your liking. It's probably my favorite out of the twenty or so buds I've gotten recently. It doesn't have the most bass nor aggressive highs. But it places vocals front and center, both in tuning and soundstage-wise imho, kinda like my hd650s. However, it...

    Absolute best budget earbuds?

    Two questions as an earbud newb: 1. Does housing/shell plastic choice matter for sound quality on Faaeal's earbuds? Ex. solid black vs. transparent grey versions of the Faaeal Iris 2.0 2. Does the 2022 nicehck traceless (purple/green) sound any different from the previous traceless red&blue...

    Stax: SR 002 + Srm 002 and Srm 003 mk2 + Srm 003 impression and appreciation thread

    Are there any stores in Japan that have these available to demo? I've only seen the large earspeakers out on display in places like yodobashi on my last trip about two years ago. Any changes? Have been pretty curious about these.

    HIFIMAN HE6se Loaner tour

    I would love to be part of the HE6se loaner tour. I'm in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I've heard and enjoyed many HIFIMAN headphones like the Susvara, 1000s, edition X, etc and would like to see how the HE6se fits in. And the reason why I have my CK²III amp of because of claims that it could drive the...
