    Sleek Audio CT20: First Impressions

    By this logic, having full sized headphones and just stuffing as many drivers as possible into them will create a world of sound that doesn't even exist yet. I believe I am onto something. Here is what it will be like

    Well rounded IEMs for <$150 (reggae and jazz)

    Not sure about the DDMs.. Still searching. Right now I'm considering the DBA-02s and Phonak's PFEs..

    Well rounded IEMs for <$150 (reggae and jazz)

    I've heard great things about the Radius, but what concerns me is the isolation.. I don't want people to be hearing my music from across the room. Also, the fit issues complaint seems to spring up a few times..

    Well rounded IEMs for <$150 (reggae and jazz)

    Hey all, starting a new one of these as my interests have changed somewhat and I'm still on the search for IEMS.. I'm looking for a pair of IEMs that have a good overall sound. These will be primarily used for reggae and jazz, although I do listen to some classic rock and underground...

    Alright bumping this and getting it back in the right direction. Read first post, that's still all true. I'm thinking I'm about ready to say 'no' to the DBA-02s. There's too much debate about them, and it's making me nervous. People are making them out to be vicious treble monsters, and even...

    Saying this again. My only experience with treble-oriented HPs is with the 780s, which I thought were too harsh for my liking. Not sure if that helps with the DBA-02 decision.

    Help with choosing IEMs

    My roommate has the S4s. I wouldn't say that the bass is excessive, and I didn't really notice any problems with the highs.. They're more neutral than you would think, tbh. Also, it's been a while since I've listened to the s4s (might have to wake the roomie up and steal them) but I remember...

    Are the Ultrasone HFI-780's right for me?

    My experience with the 780s has not been an enjoyable one. I don't know why they are so well liked or recommended, personally. They have incredibly aggressive highs, from my experience. Regardless of high or low quality songs, I have found that listening to 's' sounds through the HFI780s is...

    That's good.. I didn't think it would be a problem until a few people in this thread mentioned that they were sibilant.. I'm just worried because if I get them and they're too harsh, I'm stuck with them and out of $150.. I also don't know what tips I would use as I've never had a pair of IEMs...
