    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Thats an interesting option. I used to have the Jabra 65t which was awesome from a comfort perspective, it just didn't sound very good. Svanar LE is definitely an option for me, I'm not a huge fan of the look of them, but whatever.. The case also seems pretty big and bulky for pocket carry...

    Yeah i forgot to mention that part, I'm on a Pixel 6 pro, probably moving to P8 pro soon, and I don't use Apple products at all (and won't be in the future).

    You sure on no ambient mode on mystique? I thought that they had ambient but not ANC? EDIT: yeah, mystique has ambient: The FoKus Mystique also features improved microphone placement compared to the FoKus Pro with the microphone being placed on the faceplate rather than the side of the shell...

    Hey thanks for the reply! Calls will definitely happen, but it'll be typically in an office environment in a quiet room, and definitely secondary to music/audiobook listening. I didn't have multipoint for a long time on my sonys, and honestly it wasn't a big deal. Once i got it, i used it, but...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Hey all, I've been out of the headphone game (at least the shopping/researching part) for a few years now, hoping I could get some advice here (if you think it would be better to just start a new thread, LMK). Pre-pandemic I was using wired IEMs for my commute as I would end up at a desk all...

    Awesome, thanks @kubig123 and @Deezel177 , thats exactly the information I was hoping to get when I asked. I'll definitely get the 2pin recessed with mic. My main listening source will be PC USB -> Chord Mojo, but during commutes right now it'll just be my phone (Motorola Droid Turbo 2 atm...

    CustomArt FIBAE Impressions Thread

    Okay, I think I have my design for the FB all set....but I have no idea on the pros / cons on the different connector types. Is there a most popular/common option? What are advantages to recessed vs not recessed? Anyone have any experiences with the mic? Do most people get aftermarket cables...

    Oof, just read the reviews from Deezel...yep, thinking FIBAE black based on this line: "Besides being a tad brighter in tone, the FIBAE 3 has crisper transients and thinner notes. This is because of its upper-treble lift and its subdued mid-bass. The prototype has a much fuller, richer low-end...

    Actually before pulling the trigger I will ask my same question one more time now that the blacks are out (just to be 100% sure): As someone who has only tested the music one, music two, and ei3, and thought that the music one was pretty good, the music two was awesome (and improved on the one...

    Man, these FIBAE Blacks are what I've been waiting for I think. I've posted here a few times and haven't been able to pull the trigger, but these new ones seem right up my alley...and my bonus check comes next week :). I'll be placing an order in a few days! Congrats on what looks like an...

    Cool, those are the FIBAE ME? I'm assuming the less drivers the smaller size, per the usual.

    Interesting. Besides price, anything that the ME doesn't do better than either the 2 or the 3?

    Alright, so I still haven't made my first CIEM purchase, despite posting on this page that I would like a year ago. That said, I'm still planning on it, and now I see that the FIBAE massdrop is out. I went to e-earphone last year, tried out the music one, music two, and ei.3 I thought I was...
