Oh boy - I'm just itching to buy a pair of these today/over the weekend. I know I should wait...

Isn't that six times the price of the Terminator?

Very much enjoying the V30 with my Audio Technica E70s right now. Using some hybrid tips (silicone with memory foam inserts) and the sound is clean, balanced and fulsome. Darn fine, actually.

So the hybrid ones have finally arrived. Decent fit (still not perfect, but that's likely my ears). I think they're good so far, as I now feel I'm getting a much fuller response from the E70s - for which I have increasing admiration. I may try the Bliss and Sony ones next.

I'm still waiting for the hybrid ones to arrive. Have the JVCs in mind as well. Like the E70s so far, but getting in and out of my ears is fiddly and will take some getting used to.

I'm coming from a Nexus 6P. Probably nothing to write home about but it was a very good smartphone all around. I've had smartphones (Apple and Android) before but I can honestly say the V30 feels like I'm getting about 3x as much device as the 6P and iPhone 5S I had before. The depth and array...

Is there a UK V30+ model? I thought it wasn't being released here?

Okay - just to be clear - streaming TIDAL through the UAPP app will *not* result in default resampling to 48kHz? It leaves tracks alone, like the native LG app? If so, great. That could work. ___ So, now using UAPP with bit perfect (when possible), variable bit rate settings (android bit...

Ah, screw it, I bought UAPP anyway. Time for me to learn from folk around here. In for a penny, ...

Just signed up to Tidal (Hifi) this weekend. Will see if this is a noticeable improvement. Not really interested in tethering my smartphone to a USB DAC (I have TDA1543A NOS one made by Audiosector from some time ago). For home listening I have a 4x BB1704K DAC which is great. the V30 is for...

Sure, you were right, and I sort of expected that in a way. Everyone's ear canals, listening experience and aural cortexes are different, so no one tip will 'rule them all' so to speak. But I'm curious - do you switch between all of these on your E70s? Or is there one you have settled on? And...

Do the E70s require any noticeable break-in during which their sound balance alters?

Tried mine today with my HD650s. Pretty decent for a phone. Now I've the 660S in my sights, as my 650s have seen better days.

The standard E70s tips are poor, frankly. And even the Comply memory foam items included are not that much better. I may order some Spinfits as well, as I see I'm going to have to play around with these to get the best from these ATH-E70s.
