    Reply to review by 'busyx2' on item 'NuForce HEM8 Reference Class Hi-Res In-Ear Headphones with Quad Balanced Armature Drivers'

    " Test gear:   Sony Xperia Z3 Compact (via Neutron Player) Cayin C5 Sansa Clip+ (Rockboxed) Microsoft Surface Pro 2 (straight from the output jack)"   I think the compromise in the HF and bass punch is the fact that a phone has been used instead of a dedicated source (AK Player, DAC).

    Nuforce HEM Discussion & Impressions

    HEM comes with separate signal ground, so it's natural that I tried a balance connection to use with Sony ZX2.  I am very surprised at the improvement, clarity improved, and frequency extremes are that much better.

     It needs to be burnt-in for 48 hours to 'open up', be patience.

    Nuforce Primo 8 - an Audiophile Phase Coherent Quad Balanced Armature Driver IEM - Impressions

    I can't tolerate the bloated bass with SE846.  IE800 is a good earphone for shallow and casual listening where I need to put in and remove the earphones when I got interruption, but IE800 is dynamically restrictive.

    Shure 846 had the bass cranked up really high, with reference to the mid-range, i.e. 1kHz.    You can look at the the Frequency Response of 846 from any reputable sources:     you can see that the 100Hz point is about 9dB above the 1kHz point.

    Nuforce Primo 8 - an Audiophile Phase Coherent Quad Balanced Armature Driver IEM - Impressions

    I heard both, had the Shure for 3 weeks before it went back to Amazon. If you are listening to electonic and trance, Shure is for you. It really has a "subwoofer" built in, but turned up really high, as in +9dB from neutral, which rendered acoustics, jazz and classical unpalatable.

    I saw the bit about free Hotel shuttle.   But we are not 'hotel guest'???  I am going to assume that Westin shuttle will soon get overwhelmed and want some proof of hotel reservation, if they are delivering bus loads of headfiers.

    If I am flying into John Wayne airport, is there a shuttle or some means to get to Westin?  It would seem silly to rent a car but would take much too long to walk.
