Quick Westone UM Pro 50 / Linum BAX question
I ordered a Linum BAX cable for my Westone UM Pro 50. When I installed the cable, #1 the connector didn't sit flush, the copper barrel was visible. #2 it felt loose, and wobbly. The stock cable was firm, no movement side to side. The Linum BAX connector was wobbly, like it was slightly bigger in...- jtack

Lightning to USB 3
Trying to find if there are any makers of lightning to USB 3 in a form factor similar to the lightning to USB 2 cable. I'm wanting just the USB port not the charging port too in order to cut down on size.- jtack

New Dragonfly Black and Red Discussion
Just received my DFR. Using iPhone 7 plus, Tidal HiFi, Heir Audio 4.ais. Sound is noticeably cleaner and has more impact down low. It's hard for me to describe the difference. It produces a special sound. Using the lightning to USB 2 camera kit I have heard a few pops. Seems to only happen when...- jtack

Going from FX700 to IE800
Thank you all for the reply. I think I might wait for the reviews to come out on the FX850 and see what that might offer over the fx700.- jtack

Going from FX700 to IE800
I am thinking about going from my current FX700 to IE800. I am powering from Iphone 5s. I can get the IE800's new for $650. Are the IE800's worth the money coming from my FX700's. What should I expect as far as sound differences between the two? Thanks!- jtack

JVC HA-FX700 review : WOODEN KING of Dynamic iems
I just received my fx700's. They have about 9 hours of burn in and right off I can say for me they sound significantly better in all areas compared to my ie80 and my monster miles davis.

Sennheiser IE80's Impressions Thread
I just picked up a pair of ie80's to compare to my monster miles davis tributes. I let them burn in for a day and then gave a listen.

Monster Miles Davis to 1964 Quad
I currently have Monster Miles Davis Tributes and am thinking of going to 1964 Ears Quad. I am using a Cowon I Audio 9. Is the price justified in switching out my Monster's? I guess what I am wanting to know is if the 1964 Ears Quad is a big step up from the Monster's. Thanks!- jtack
