    Hello everyone, I am regrettably selling my Acoustic Research AR-M2 Digital Audio Player. This was a $1,199 MSRP unit when it launched so I am looking for only a third of that price (although I do expect the buyer to pay for shipping)...

    Did I just see a $1,000 mmcx cable? And I thought my £280 pound cable from Final was pricey! My goodness... I hope the cable at least takes me out for dinner first.

    That's a lovely setup. Was looking at getting a Lottoo a while back, but snagged up an open-box Acoustic Research AR-M2 I think for around £400 give or take. Once it's time to upgrade in a couple or a few years, I hope Lottoo will have something new by then, because I heard some excellent things...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    The AH-C821 are essentailly exactly how you described the AH-C620R. The best thing about them was that they could be driven easily by anything, even my terrible Samsung J7 and J6 phones I had at the time, whereas my old Mee P1's, although incredible, needed a DAP. They sounded awful on anything...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    My Final B1's. I've used some great IEMs over the years. Denon AH-C821, Denon Ah-C250, MEE P1, Grade GR10e, Fender FXA7, Final F4100, Final F7200, so on, so forth, but the Final B1's just match what I want in terms of both the fidelity and signature of the sound. They don't offer an accurate...

    What Are You Listening To Right Now?

    Recently i've been listening to a lot of Moby again. When I was a kid, my dad used to play his albums a lot, Play, 18, Hotel, Wait for Me, and so on. I've always been a big fan of his music, but I've recently been discovering his music before Play, which is far more techno oriented. Play and...

    Hey guys, don't know if this is the right thread to post in, but anyways, wanted to give my view on something: I used to own a set of Denon Ah-C821 IEMs. I paid about €200 for them (which was MSRP) roughly 4 or 5 years ago. Recently, I saw them for sale from Denon directly for $75. just...

    Please help with Hifiman options

    I haven't owned any HiFiMan IEMs or headphones, but I do know someone who has a set of 400se and my father and I between us have owned three different HiFiMan DAPs. One thing I would say about HiFiMan, from experience, is the sound is incredible, but the build quality is not. I absolutely loved...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    My Final B1's took a very long time to burn in, when I contacted Final, they said it can take hundreds of hours. It can be quite difficult to notice though unless you compare them to a brand new set, which is what I did. I noticed a tad more bass and midrange whilst the trebble was softened...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Haven't checked Spinfit, so that's a good shout. I ordered some comply isolation 500 and comply comfort 500 to compare with the Type E I received with my Final B1s I just ordered, so once they arrive, I'll be testing them out.

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    So, I have received my Final B1s and have been using them for the past few days, here's my initial impressions: Firstly, the looks. Packaging is simplistic yet stylish and I am delighted that ear hooks are included. I was slightly disappointed to find no foam ear-tips however, and even though...

    Best IEM tips?

    I would always recommend Final tips, however, finding certain ones in the EU is extremely difficult. For example, nowehere right now in the EU (not that I know of anyway) sell the Final Type E clear tip. Once my new IEMs arrive, I'll be looking out for some tips to see if I can really push mine...
