What would anyone suggest as a replacement for the Shadow, an IEM amp Etymotics in particular?

I've given up on receiving a response from RSA, now searching for a replacement.

Thanks for posting. I've written emails to that address and have left phone messages at the phone number, all without a reply. I still have a bit of hope that he may contact me. I agree that he has made terrific product, and all of my previous contacts with RSA have been exemplary. Then again...

The website is still up and emails don't bounce. I'm just hoping the Ray is in good health. Having done considerable online research, I'm thinking that the state of the art has probably surpassed RSA. This being said, I've had years of enjoyment from my amps.

Battery pack is readily available. I did pull out the circuit board; battery pack seems soldered and replacement by me would be inadvisable as I can break anything.

My beloved Shadow is in need of service, probably a new battery. I've been unable to contact RSA. Does anyone have information about Ray, and has anyone self-replaced the battery? Thanks. Joel

No product has given me more listening pleasure over the last 16 years or so than my Etys, 4P and 4S.  I've tried all other sorts of IEMs, but these are the ones that give me that "you are there sensation."  With the custom moulds for merely another $100 including the audiologist fee, they...

For me, being 70 years old and with declining hearing:   isolation- allows me to block extraneous noise and concentrate on detail   clarity- that which makes a clarinet sound like a clarinet, and a flute like a flute   realism- that wow factor that I'm really there and that the...

Hello again,   I own the Senns and they have terrific sound.  However, they don't isolate very well in any sort of noisy environment.   The re-shells from Fisher Hearing isolate, have absolutely terrific sound and replaceable cables.  May I suggest that you look into just how much it...

Since you enjoy the sound signature of the Shures, why not consider having them reshelled custom?  I did this through Fisher Hearing for about $150 including the deep ear impressions made by an audiologist.   The earphones sound better than ever.   Joel

I can't believe that anything has surpassed the Nilsson, Corelli, Scotto recording. Pavarotti's basically lyric voice is quite light for the role, and Nilsson was in her absolute prime at the time of her recording. Also of interest is the historical, earlier recording with a young Birgit...

I've got a drawer-full of IEMs. IMHO, nothing beats the Etys for accuracy. I keep going back to them. Sent them in and see what happens!
