Correct me if I was wrong, I think the whole custom IEMs thing started with hearing aid device industry.

I feel like to be treated nicely whatever the reason is :-).

sorry for bad quality pictures.  

It is great to see smaller manufacturers focus not only on IEMs but also some full size headphones. Great for can-mans like me!

both D5000 and d2000 might need some mod to sound the best, while D7000 sounds fantastic out of the box.

Quote: silver cabled and markl modded D2000 probably sound as good as d7000.

I hope these episodes come more frequently.

great price for D5000!

300$ to 400$ for a dac-amp-headphoens rig is probably the sweet spot. I guess you can get 95% sound quality of this, add 2000$ for additional 3% and probably 10000$ for 1 more % and ∞ for the last 1%.

I  found some people just can not tell the quality of sound or they just do not care? For example, my wife.

that is good amount of money, exactly fit in for the Beyer DT1350. Current king of the portable headphones, also built for professional use. Neutral and rich sound, bass goes deep but not in excess quantity. I recommend these without any reservation especially for your editing work and enjoyment...
