Hi all. I'd love to get your advice.   I'm looking for a decent silicone custom IEM. I will be primarily using this for airplane travel. I travel A LOT (flying twice a week normally), and I find that wearing IEMs really reduces my fatigue. I'm currently using a few different IEMs including...

Brian, any update on pre-orders? I keep checking the website every day...

Anyone know when the boards will be available again?

I think it's probably a bad idea to connect both the speakers and headphones simultaneously. I assume that the circuit is pretty simple, as an anode-loaded transformer-coupled single stage design. There is probably a single secondary winding with two taps - one for headphones at a higher...

Yeah, pulling the ear up and back actually straightens the external auditory meatus. When you see pediatricians examining kids' ears, that's what they're doing.

If anyone's interested, I have a DA2.03e for sale in New York. I'm downsizing my office system, hence the sale.

I'd love to hear your feedback on that. All the best with the purchase.

Hey everyone. I haven't looked through all 24 pages of this thread, but the HA-02 does highly interest me. I've noticed people mention (and complain a little) about tube rolling possibilities. But has anyone explored modding potential of this amp? From the internals pictures on 6moons, the...

Wow, that's the first I've heard of that. Thanks for letting me know! Would you say that, in retrospect, you should have ordered a version without the plate? This is really good to know - I've only just placed my order, and I think it's not too early to change...

Hey Julien. The plate looks just like the one here by The Monkey: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=189503 It is actually molded into the case, so there is acrylic covering the plate also. It's purely decorative as far as I know, and another head-fier has noted that it does...

I just posted on this - there's a fantastic new place at 30 Central Park South called Acoustic Hearing Services, so pretty close to Broadway (that's 59th St between 6th and 5th, by the way). Ask for Julie Glick - she previously worked for Sensaphonics as an audiologist, so she really knows her...

Julien, I'm ordering basically the same specs as you, although I'm also asking for the titanium plate (which can also be directly etched, by the way). So the casing will be translucent red and blue, although the metal plate will be placed under the casing and will have a logo etched onto it...

Well, I had to bite the bullet...hearing all this just meant I had to do it. After Etymotic ER6, ER4S and Westone UM1's, I'm kinda ready for a custom design. I placed an order yesterday for the UE 11 Pro, and I'm trying something new with the artwork - it's the titanium plate version...

OK, folk. I received the DAC, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Unfortunately I don't have a 7.2X to compare it to, but it sounds great through my Etymotic ER4S phones. It does sound quite a bit better than my HPDAC, though - more detail, bass, far better highs, smoother and great dynamics. I'm...

Thanks so much for your posts. My E2.03e is arriving this week, and I should be able to give a different perspective to this device. I used to manufacture high-end tube equipment, so I should be able to look at the circuit and review its modding potential. I'll be in touch! Cheers.
