Hi all, I'm not understanding well still the effect of different values of voltage and capacitance. Can someone please help me understand if a 25v 22uF cap would work internally in a diymod ( not worried about size), and if not, why? Is there harm done if the voltage of the cap is higher than...

Quote:   Yknow what, I think these things helped me power through 4 hours of study, about the human ear and auditory system too. I should now be able to tell you now why these things sound good! 

No kidding, this worked! Thanks so much for the hint Sorensiim! (and credit to the Wizard too who I now remember also pointed this out before) Am feeding this with 320kbps/FLAC >> (Soon to be diymodded) iPod video 5g >> lod>> Pico Slim Next step, a source upgrade! But pretty chuffed with how...

Yay, had my first listen with my 8.As today, and they're every bit as great as people here have described. I used to not subscribe to the idea that an iem would pump out bass as the track called for, but that might be because I was using IE80s. Very very smooth and non fatiguing so far, am...

Heir Audio are damn wonderful and really go that extra mile to serve their customers!  My mother happened to be in china recently, so I asked them if they were able to build my CIEMs and have them sent to my mother before 6/11/12 , the day she left/leaves. This way I could avoid ≈ $200AUD in...

 

Hey h20fidelity, are those target players any good? They have some pretty spiff touch screen models going at rock bottom prices so was wondering about them.

Breakfast at Tiffany's, a damn classic! 10/10! Audrey Hepburn is just lovely and moon river is such a wonderful song.

Impressions shipped off, now comes the nail biting nerve wracking wait for the 8.as to arrive :)

A helpful review, kunlun! I'm going in for impressions on Monday, just wondering, how do you relax your jaw? Do you mean trying your hardest not to bite the block and letting it sit there, or popping your ears out or something?

I am probably grossly misinterpreting this but does that imply that the stock cable costs $30? If so, that's a damn good price for what I hear is a good cable. Also if I ordered an iem from heir and wanted another cable as a backup/for piece of mind, does that mean I should pay the $149 for an...

I find the foam stuffed hybrids that came with my dba02 mk2s are wonderful and provide a good seal without making them overly boomy, but dont think these tips are readily accessable. Generic foam tips from lostearbuds I find are also great, especially for the price!

There are quite a few monster trumpet fakes around on Chinese wholesale sites ie taobao or dhgate But perhaps you could get an iem with a similar sound signature that isn't as often faked? Like Yamaha eph100s

Ah, late to the party, but my jvc hafx40's arrived in the mail today! Was very excited! I agree with the consensus on these iems, that they're a quite a bit sibilant out of the box, but extremely detailed and have a deep reaching, clean bass. Have had only 10 hours of burn in so far. Got really...
