    Earsonics SM64: The Impressions Thread

    Do SM64 share the same cables for UM3X? There are very few cables made for SM64. The one I found said it applies to both SM64 and UM3X. https://www.moon-audio.com/silver-dragon-iem-cable.html Is that true?

    Balanced input portable speakers?

    https://www.head-fi.org/articles/headphone-power-calculator-spreadsheet.17131/ I found this calculator. If I plug in 16 ohm for impedance and 88dB/mW for sensitivity, I can see that at 147.91mW output can achieve 109.7dB which seems to be good enough for most purposes. Does that mean DP-CMX1...

    Balanced input portable speakers?

    https://www.galaxyaudio.com/products/mspa5#specifications Would this work with Onkyo DP-CMX1? Can I buy a splitter like this to hook them up? http://www.lunashops.com/goods.php?id=5241 If that's possible, how do I know if DP-CMX1's 150mW output can drive them?

    Balanced input portable speakers?

    Hooked to the balanced output from my Onkyo DP-CMX1 I am now interested in a setup that put USB audio through my Onkyo and output to a balanced input portable speakers. Anyone has any recommendations? My budget is $500-$1000. I would like the weight to be <1000g. Thanks a lot in advance.

    Onkyo DP-CMX1 GRANBEAT | Dual Dac | Balanced | Phone DAP

    Finally got my ER4S balanced cable from Lavricables. Indeed the balanced output is much louder as spec'ed. I also heard more details. Definitely need a balanced headphone to fulfill DP-CMX1's potential.

    Onkyo DP-CMX1 GRANBEAT | Dual Dac | Balanced | Phone DAP

    Mine is HK version. My bluetooth seems fine. But I only used it to transfer files.

    Onkyo DP-CMX1 GRANBEAT | Dual Dac | Balanced | Phone DAP

    My SD card was formatted in the NTFS format. It could be read by Granbeat without any problem. Perhaps your SD card was formatted in FAT format?

    Onkyo DP-CMX1 GRANBEAT | Dual Dac | Balanced | Phone DAP

    I have a ER4S and a SM64. Both are 100 ohm impedance. I am thinking of buying a 2.5mm TRRS balanced cable for ER4S. If I do that, can I plug in both IEMs at the same time and listen to them simultaneously?

    Earsonics SM64: The Impressions Thread

    Just bought a new SM64. Was an owner of three consecutive ER4S. It seems to me SM64 is easier to drive to than ER4S, correct? I found that when I use the stock bi-flange, I can hear the bass much better if I push the tip against my ear canal. However, it bounces back when I relieve the pressure...

    If you still love Etymotic ER4, this is the thread for you...

    I am a big fan of ER4 series. I had three ER4Ses in a row. I used the first one until the line is broken. I lost the second one while riding public transport. Now the third one's line begins to get loose recently, so I am thinking about getting a new IEM to replace ER4S. I want one that is at...

    ER4P/ER4S balanced cable questions

    I have a ER4P with broken cable and a fully functional ER4S I am planning to buy a Onkyo Granbeat. I heard that Granbeat has a balanced output, so I would like to give it a try. I found there are places selling ER4 balanced cable for around US$200. My questions are: 1) Do these balanced...
