    Kicking off 2016 with a Toronto / GTA meet on Saturday January 30th

    Anyone know when the next meet may be? Just dabbled back into the audiophile world after a 2-year break and would be nice to kick-start with joining some meets.

    Seeking Suggestions - Current Models that can resemble Monster Turbine Pro Copper Sound

    Hi all, it's been a while since I last checked in on Head-Fi and the IEM industry. I've kind of settled and rolled along with my Westone 4Rs and 1964 Ears Quads for the last 2 years and didn't managed to have the time or effort to seek for a new pair of IEMS.   With that said, I've come to...

    The IEM/Portable Headphones Deal Alerts Thread - Closed! Use the Deals Thread III instead.

    Quote: Heck we used to be able to grab some MDR-EX500s for $15 back at Thailand (Sony manufactures them there, and there were a few stock-leaks).        Anywho, FOR CANADIANS WHO MIGHT SEE THIS BEFORE TOMORROW (SUNDAY) ENDS:  ...

    1964 Ears

    A very weird update:   Earlier today I was listening to my current setup, 120GB iPod Classic --> Homegrown Audio DNA cable LOD --> iBasso D12 --> 1964 Quads.   I suddenly got curious about how digital silence would sound with this setup at the D12's Highest Volume. Thus, I turned off the...

    1964 Ears

    Makes me remember those old times when I had to wait nearly 2 months to get mine, and another month to have them refitted/fixed.    Quote:

    1964 Ears

    My pre-buy research was pretty much: -read this whole thread thoroughly (was about 130 pages back then)    -read every single details that 1964 EARS, Unique Melody, and JH Audio websites had to offer   -slept on the decision for about 2 weeks     And came up with "Since this will...

    1964 Ears

    I've only had the experience of comparing a 1964 Quad with a pair of custom TF10's remolded by Unique Melody. The case was that I own the quads, and was able to get a good seal on my friend's remolded TF10's (such coincidence indeed).   In terms of bass, the TF10's had a much more present...

    1964 Ears

    Two little questions regarding the SPC cable:   1. how flexible are they? They look to be braided like the stock, but are they as flexible? or stiffer to what level?   2. Do they have any earguides by the connectors (metal wires or molded silicone tubing)? The stock cables have the metal...

    Toronto winter meet? [interest check]

    I'm mostly an IEM kind of person (Given I'm living in a dorm). I've got:   Monster Turbine Pro Coppers Atrio Pro M5 (The MG7 Driver one) Sennheiser HD595 iBasso D12 Anaconda   I'm hoping someone will be bringing the amp combo Fiio E7/E9 and the Arrow Headstage or Headamp Pico Slim.

    Review and impressions thread: Beat Audio Cronus and Supreme Rose cables for custom IEMs

    The main reason I bought the Supreme is its durability. I am quite sure it can handle your beating quite well. I myself tend to do that as well .   Quote:

    The IEM/Portable Headphones Deal Alerts Thread - Closed! Use the Deals Thread III instead.

    Futureshop's checkout queue was pretty messed up. Luckily mine worked out fine. My friend was cursing the whole hour (we had to walk over to another friend's house in between his stuck-checkout and the actual-working-checkout).   Quote:

    The IEM/Portable Headphones Deal Alerts Thread - Closed! Use the Deals Thread III instead.

    Exactly as kckc said, I actually had a friend or two offered to help me order, but my bank balances are currently problematic for more than 1 pair right now.   Btw, must report in:   Waited on Futureshop.ca page since 6.30pm, watching the count down. Refreshed the Coppers Info Page on...
