Headphones for metal music - ultimate solution
Very cool. That's what I wanted to know. I listen to all genres and types of music these days, but every once in a while, there'll be a hot product that doesn't translate well into "heavy music' which is still my most played kind of music. Just what I wanted to confirm. Thanks man.- markm1

Thanks George. I'm out of the Headfi loop these days and I just wanted to know from a rock/metal perspective if the hype was legit. Apprec!- markm1

Hey guys, looking for a mid tier DAP. fIIo M11 is getting a lot of good reviews. Any thoughts on on this DAP for rock and metal?- markm1

Indeed-We think it's science, but it's also art and there's opinion and subjectivity. It's a hobby as they say-haha -

Hey Redcar, I haven't posted here in a long time, but I get this thread sent to my email that I put in a separate folder and go trough it from time time. I always read your posts when I'm here and you gave me some great DM back in the day. Vader! Thought I'd chime in as I've also had the dangest... -

Big shout out to main man, Hansotek. I finally picked up those Periodic Audio Be you reviewed and we talked about-jeez-like last July or something. Really enjoy them. They deliver the speed, detail, and clarity as advertised. Just ordered some Comply ear tips I'm going to play around with...- markm1

Hey guys, I haven't been post much here lately, but I still lurk to see what's up. I just posted my top 50 albums of 2017 over at M-F. A little late to the party as I picked up crazy amounts of music over the last few weeks to assimilate. Here's my list sans album writes ups: 50... -

Hansotek, as usual you knocked it out of the park. Remember these posts? I went to Capital Audio Fest today and I was thrilled to see Periodic Audio was attending. I've had those Beryllium in my mind since your post back in July. I went through their line up with my Ipod-just an Ipod, and the...- markm1

Lots of great things to consider. You haven't steered me wrong yet :smile_phones: No doubt, I could be happier with any of them. I actually saw the Shure 846 on the used forum. But, that's higher end than I need to go. I'd love to hear the ISine. Fact is, I can go as high as I want-it's more of...- markm1

That might be the way to go. I was thinking initially of a DAP to store my music, but the memory card would take care of some of that. A little higher end than I was thinking, but it would solve several audio problems in one fell swoop. It wouldn't limit the kind of HP either. Would that...- markm1

You guys are awesome-I'm working from complete ignorance. Here's my issue, I downloaded my entire CD library a couple of years ago which took months, and threw everything on a NAS that I use with SONOS as a transport through a dedicated Nuprime DAC/Pre/HP amp and that is the brains of my two...- markm1

Thanks. What kind of sources were you/do you use with your IEMs. I'm hoping to use them at the gym with an Ipod and at work with a desk amp/DAC. I'm guessing a lot of you guys are using higher end DAPS. Just curious. Also do the the nicer IEMS come with ends for How about amplification for...- markm1

Ah, OK, but you still put a lot of time and effort into your reviews I can tell. Kudos! Is the Beryllium your preference over the other IEMs I've been asking about in that price range (Shure, VModa, etc.)?- markm1
