Hi there, Anyone know where one could get a Westone 3 and a Westone 4 recabled? One-sided loose connection on both pairs of earphones needing repaired... I also remember seeing conversions to MMCX or other interchangeable connector, is there anywhere that does either of these...

  Thanks, will give this a shot later this week hopefully and post back.     Oh god no haha, I'm about to build a ludicrous (and my first) gaming PC...I don't even have money for these IEMs right now! The question is really whether they are worth saving up for in the near future – I've...

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but do any of the major shops in HK have these and/or the 1plus2 for walk-in audition? Or will I have to arrange to meet with Gavin?   Am interested in comparing against the 846, 334, W60, Roxanne etc. TOTL IEMs as I'm in HK for the next couple of...

I am in the process of doing extensive A/Bing between the different tips in the fit kit, after which I will return to post general impressions.   I'm also in the UK, so may consider selling/posting the tips that I will definitely not be using to other UK peeps - if they are interested!

So I found an old DR-S4 headphone with the leather headband and pads surprisingly supple after years of sitting in an attic, and thought that it would be a good opportunity to rehouse my PortaPro drivers.       As you can see, the drivers are pretty small in the enclosure, but I am...

I don't have the time to peruse this whole thread, but does anyone know where one can try out the 1plus2 in Hong Kong?   I was at the Hollywood Plaza Mingo shop earlier today auditioning the FitEar 334, but they hadn't heard of the 1plus2/Tralucent....

I haven't gone through this thread fully yet, but is there any place to get them here in the UK?

Quote: Haha excellent, thanks a lot for your time.   Sounds exactly like the upgrade I'm looking for. Don't have the cash for them yet, but am saving up for them (it's going to take a long time ). W4 sound signature with perhaps a bit more sparkle in the highs and forward bass, better...

    Four bass heavy tracks that push the limit of my W4...would really appreciate any impressions of the sub-bass impact with the Merlins on these tracks! The last track in particular has soundstage and sub-bass emphasis.

That's awesome. My G27 is stuck over in Hong Kong, hopefully going to get it shipped here over summer. And the stick shifter is broken so I'll have to get a replacement some time.   What racing games do you play? And is that a poster of Eau Rouge on the back wall?

Quote:   Thanks! I will report back in this thread after a few more days - to let them burn in, and to allow me to maximise them via positioning, shoddy attempts at acoustic treatment and Amarra tweaking.   I will say this though, they wipe the floor with my MS40s. Just a different...

First time posting in here, there are so many fantastic and tasteful rigs on show. Here's my humble student set up:     17" Macbook Pro 2011 model, stock. Straight out to Swans M200 MKIII (just arrived, god they are gorgeous both aesthetically and in terms of sound)   Also...

I am taking a step up from my Behringer MS40s that conked out on me.   I have come to the conclusion that Swans M200 MKII are the right choice for me. Here in the UK, they set me back £299 from a dealer.   Is there anything better in this pricerange that I'm missing?   They need to...

I am a bit clueless when it comes to DACs, but is the following set up feasible? And will it result in a noticeable improvement in sound quality?   Macbook Pro optical out -> Fiio D3 -> Westone 4 / Monitor speakers   Can you plug earphones directly into the D3 with a adapter? I will have...

Do keep us posted on what they do.   I am currently in the UK, looking eagerly at buying Merlins. I'm a starving student, but audio is the only thing that I really care about - so I'm saving up to buy these.   These reports of really inexcusable mistakes do make my heart jump a bit...
