    Dignis cases

    Couldn’t find a thread about these so I figured I’d start this one off with a question: anyone ordered from Dignis before?! I just ordered a case but I found the website strange to navigate, when I checked out the site is not secure, and finally I paid with PayPal and it sort of processed my...

    Cowon players actually limited to less than 512gb storage?

    I’d really like to pickup a P2 or R2 but the specs indicate they’re limited to 256gb sd cards. Can anyone confirm this is actually true? I’m wondering if they’d actually work with a 512gb card...

    Want to go from a $100 DAP up to something potentially way pricier. Help!

    I absolutely love the sound of my Shanling m0, however, I’d like a better UI (should be easy coming from the tiny m0, right?). I’m pretty picky and a finicky buggy UI will annoy me. Ultimately, sound quality is the most important feature to me, though. I only use IEMs, primarily Ety Er2xr...

    Absolutely love the sound of the Shanling M0. What's the next step up for an improved UI/screen?

    I absolutely adore the sound out of my M0 with all of my IEMs. I also love the portability of it but I'm looking for a next step up in terms of the screen size, UI, functionality of organization, etc. The same or improved better sound quality is a necessity. What should I be looking to? Thanks!

    Help with hiss while using IEMs on Switch and PS4

    I'm using IEMs with my Switch's headphone jack, along with out of my Marantz receiver when playing PS4. I realize this is probably some sort of impedance issue that's giving me a hiss behind all sound vs. the totally silent background out of my DAP. I have several pairs of IEMs but the ones in...

    Two pin connector pin polarity help

    Can anyone tell me which one of these pictures has the cable connected properly? I only hear things obviously out of phase if I have the direction the dots face on the L and R earphones different. If I have the dot facing the same way on both L and R it sounds ok. However, shouldn't there...

    I have an iFi Nano DSD BL coming tomorrow I intend to primarily use at work with my laptop and then with my iPhone. I'm wondering if there's a way to use it with my M0 DAP? If so, how would I connect them properly? Given that I have that equipment, what would be the purpose or use case for...

    Complys for ATH-LS200?

    Does anyone have a recommendation for Comply tips that don’t ruin the sound of these? I’m not sure which size I need or if it’s even worth buying them if they’re going to just muddy the sound.

    Replacement A2DC cable without memory wire for Audio Tehchnica LS200?

    Can anyone recommend inexpensive, reputable/reliable replacement cables that will support the LS200/A2DC? I don't really like the material of the stock cables or the memory wire they have. I'd much prefer a lightweight cable. Thanks!

    Too many returns to Amazon?

    This week I ordered four pairs of IEMs to test out from Amazon. Now, I have no intention on keeping all four sets but I'm also starting to wonder what the limit is on returns before an account gets banned. There are lots of anecdotal stories from people online about their returns and subsequent...

    I’ve been using a pair of Audeo/Phonak PFE232s for several years now and they’ve been great, especially as far as fit and comfort go.

    Almost time to replace my Audeo PFE232s...how about Shure 535?

    I've had my 232s for about five years. What I like most abotu them is how comfortable they are and how easy it is for me to get a good fit and seal with them. I have smaller ears, so that's a factor. Would Shure 535s fit as well, in your opinion? Sound quality-wise, would the 535s be an upgrade...

    I cannot find an official website to order Rhapsodio R^2's! The Rhapsodio site looks like it's not functioning or it's been abandoned. Is it still possible to find these from a reputable seller?

    Which tips am I looking for?

    I'm trying to figure out which kind of tips I have that I really like so I can buy extra pairs. The main issue is I love the small silicone tips that come with the CK100Pros because they offer me the best fit when on my TDK BA200s, but I'm getting rid of the CK100Pros! Where can I buy these same...

    IEMs for small, fussy ears that sound great

    Up to this point, Audio Technica CK10s were the best fit I could find for my somewhat small ears. Can you guys tell me if the current Shure IEM line are all the same size, and if so, how big/small they are to other IEMs at the moment? I may just grab the 215s from Amazon to check fit, then...

    Looking for a good LOD under $50 for iphone 4/ipod touch 4G

    I've had the sendstation, but it wiggles loose and I'm thinking something with a cable already attached would be of higher quality. Is there anything around $50 that would be an improvement?
