    I had the IV several years ago and sold it because the 480 gram wt. while distributed evenly was still 480 grams on my head. So after 20 minutes it became very uncomfortable (unless lying down or leaning back on my chairs headrest) so I sold them. I agree the sound is amazing. Don't they make...

    Nice brief review! Any comparisons to the E series, 4000 or 5000? (for me comparisons to other IEMS offer the reader better ideas on their overall SQ) Thanks!!

    Trick question? How about a step up in the line??? E3000?

    For those who have the Heaven V or Heaven series, I got a response from FAD on differences between the BA Heaven V and the DD E5000: "First of all, Heaven V being a balanced armature(BA) while E5000 is driven by a dynamic driver(DD), there are audible differences in term of response speed...

    So happy for your approval, not sure what "can be true at the end means", perhaps "the end of the day?":ksc75smile:

    Meant the higher end of the Heaven series, maybe starting at the Heaven V on up. Just a guess

    TTT123, Thanks for the excellent easy understandable comparison between the Heaven VIII and the E5000. Any chance you could do a quick subjective listen to the Heaven V and E5000? I"m thinking there will be a similar comparison, as the Heaven series because of the BA will probably stand out in...

    From Midnigh Tempest: "If anyone know where I can get decent cable for under $100 please do tell." Nocturnal Audio Hydra cable(or similar) (https://nocaudio.com/) from Treoo http://store.treoo.com/brands/nocturnal-audio?dir=asc&order=price

    LOL, if I were to spend that for a cable I'd buy a $500 IEM, or go custom! A very long while back, I got a Nocturnal Audio Hydra cable (https://nocaudio.com/) from Treoo.com for $65 USD for my custom AS2,. ( https://www.head-fi.org/threads/nocturnal-audio-custom-headphone-cables ). It...

    Yes a clip and over the ears really helped the microphonics on my Heaven V. Just read MidNigh Tempest idea of buying a $275 cable for a $275 IEM, that's very insane! You can probably get a cable 2x as good as the 5005 cable on Ebay from China for less than $100.

    Hi! :beerchug: Haven't been back to the forums for years but have been reading this thread for years!! I have the Heaven V and love it, but can't find a comparison between the Heaven V and the E5000. Apparently it has a detachable cord?? How does the SQ compare? Can someone please comment...

    Excellent review!! I have the Heaven IV and love them, from your review it sounds like the E5000 is indeed a darker sound, perhaps not to my liking. Yet the cords are different, but are the microfonics(touch noise) less with the E5000 than the Heaven?? (Even around the ear with the Heaven IV...

    No burn in needed with my Heaven V. All other makes of IEM's from hifiman to DBA did.
