XR came in today. I haven't had a pair of IEMs in months, ever since my heir audio 3.Ai's died   These are fantastic. Isolation is pretty insane as well. I will say that it appears that lower quality recordings suffer, but that isn't a huge deal as most of my library is 320kbps. Microphonics...

So besides the increase in bass in the XR over the SR, are there any other substantial differemces between the two? Really unsure which of the two i want, i listen to a lot of hip hop yet i find myself leaning more and more towards neutrality. I started with a pair of hifiman he-400, then went...

Great. How are the mids? One of the things i loved most about the HD 650 was definitely the mids

Been looking for some IEMs in the price range of the ER4SR/XR, unsure whether i would like them. My current headphones are the HD650 and i love them, though i do wish the sound was slightly less muddled together. I was leaning towards ER4XR because i do love bass (but not at the detriment of the...

Got my pair in, wow these absolutely destroy the HE-400 in everything except for EDM/Trap. Hip hop sounds so much better because of the mids, really anything with male vocals. Unsure whether to sell the HE-400 or to keep them strictly for bassier songs without male vocals (quite specific...)

Ended up getting the HD 650 anyway, might just not sell my HE-400 and use it for more bass heavy music. 

About to pull the trigger on some HD 650's. Coming from the HE-400, what should i expect?   My main problems with the HE-400 were the piercingly sibilant treble and the recessed mids, making me want somewhat of a neutral headphone with a little more bass than completely neutral. I will say i...

Man this only makes the decision harder lol. I guess it's the question of open vs closed as well as sound signature   Though i will say that i was told by Chan that the offer for the $475 teaks ends today and I won't be able to buy anything until wednesday, so i have no idea if i'm even able...

I remember wanting the hd650 back 4 years ago, when i opted to go for the HE-400 instead. Interesting how things came around really   My only worry is I might be setting myself up for disappointment by going from the He-400 to the 650 in terms of bass, as for the most part i really enjoyed the...

Definitely was considering those as well. The lowered price is also pretty enticing. Do you know how the pair with a schiit magni/modi stack? Don't plan on upgrading amp/dac anytime soon really   Has anyone compared the teaks with either of the senns? I obviously assume they'll be pretty...

Yeah that is good for me i would say, i don't like headphones with too much of a v shape sound signature like the Fostex offerings are 

Would the teaks be a good recommendation for someone wanting some headphones that are for the most part neutral/balanced with a little bit more bass? I found the HE-400 treble to fatiguing and the mids too recessed, with the bass even being a little too much at times. I also have a pair of...

Yeah i was definitely thinking the TH-X00 was too v shaped upon reviews, however the E-MU Teak seemed to be a little bit closer to balanced because of the more forward mids and slightly less sub bass. Still unsure if I would enjoy the signature though. Thanks for the other recommendations, will...

...anyone?

Looking for some over ears to replace my HE-400, which would technically be a sidegrade however i find the piercing treble and the lack of mids to be not be my taste, though i do love the bass. For sound signature, i owned a pair of sennheiser momentum's and while i enjoyed them, i found the...

Really unsure whether to get some teaks or th-x00's....seems from a review over on the headphones subreddit that the e-mu's are clearly better except the fact that they have less pronounced (however more detailed) bass. 

bump

So i'm thinking of selling my he-400's (400's, not 400i's) for a pair of th-x00. Is this a good idea? I heard it would be more of a sidegrade but what makes me not like the he-400 as much as i could (i still enjoy them a lot) would be the recessed mids and the harsh treble. Would this be...

Been using my Heir Audio 3.ai for a year now and loving it, and i feel like it's time to upgrade. After getting speakers i haven't really been into the headphone game for awhile, so i need some recommendations for a >$300 pair of iems, with no fixed price but preferable lower than...

Listening to the vFree, and while they are clearly not audiophile quality, i like them. Good stuff for portable use, especially for free. Definitely not worth the msrp, however. It feels REALLY cheap, the headband is apparently very fragile.

It's fine here seeing as you don't pay anything, but yeah i understand what you mean

Wow, free $300 headphones. Fantastic, i just don't know what color to get them in

Nice catch, it would be really cool if this was real

Bamboo's are out of stock so pretend the $796 price isn't even there.

Anyone know any good sales on active computer speakers?  The airmotiv's are all out of stock and i have no idea what to get...
