    Radiopaq Jazz.....what's next?

    Hi guys, Been away from here for a while and so many models released I'm drowning in a sea of decisions... Based on previous discussions I got myself some radiopaq jazz items...they were fantastic and just the kind of thing I needed. Tight punchy bass, clear MIDs and not overbearing harsh...

    ++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum

    Yeah i know i'm quite limited when going with the closed option, i do have a selection of IEMs which fit the bill in terms of sound but been having problems with ear pressure and found full size didn't irritate my ears so i wanted to get some reasonable closed full sizes and then further down...
