Any recommendations on ear tips for the Shure SE846; my stock foams are nearly dead, and now I am left with the single flange silicones and the large white triple flange. I have heard of such types as westone starfish and comply tips, but could you help me by telling me what exactly would fit...

Do you have any recommendations on ear tips for the Shure SE846; my stock foams are nearly dead, and now I am left with the single flange silicones and the large white triple flange. I have heard of such types as westone starfish and comply tips, but could you help me by telling me what exactly...

No wonder, the engineers designed them to use a filter of a certain shape, volume, and reverberative qualities. By using them without a filter you may be inducing distortion and bad reverberation that'll taint the sound of the se846.  

I am not necessarily wowed by them, but i just realized I've been listening for over and hour, they are supremely comfortable too, though somewhat large. the bass is so good, but doesn't take the stage over treble and mids. Needless to say I am very impressed.

Fedex guy dropped mine off 15 minutes ago, just got done unwrapping them and I'm listening to probably my 10th song through them. I have always heard people thought BA iems sound too analytical and not as dynamic, but compared to my hd650 and ie80, the dynamics are eons ahead.

Have my se846 arriving later today! can't barely wait

for my line out i use a usb for DAC thats built into the e7, so if possible i would like an amp/dac, i guess i should have mentioned that before. If I'm in the car or airplane, i would really rather not have to lug around an amp and a separate dac.

I will check it out, thanks for the reply!

I have a last generation if e7 portable amplifier that i use with my hd650. With the e7, the headphones easily play very loud without seeming to tax the amp, but i wonder from more experienced audiophiles if a better amp will make a discernible difference. I listen to 320kbps mostly with some...

thanks guys, what do you guys think is better, BA or dynamic, i know the ideas of both, but I've only heard dynamic drivers before.

Well, I've been researching a high end portable set of headphones, I'm too young for customs to be an option, so universals it will be. A couple that I've looked at are: Sennheiser ie800 Heir IEM 8.0 Shure se846 Fitear Togo334 Akg k3003 I am interested in any and all opinions and comparisons...

I had ie80's, their sound degraded pretty badly over time, I sent them back to sennheiser, and now they are backordered for 3 more months. So long story short, they are sending me out hd650s in their place instead so I won't have to wait. Will I be able to play the hd650 with the Fiio e7? I also...

That ep4000 seems a bit overkill to use with 2 500 rms watt speakers, would the ep2000 be better

We just got all four of these speakers, we could return 2 of them pretty easily if it would just be overkill to find an amp that would work for them

I only plan on having stereo sound, I'm not sure if you could power 2 speakers out of 1 set of terminals, but I'd imagine that wouldn't be a good idea.
