    FiO BTR3-FiiO releases the new firmware 1.2 for BTR3, new added EQ function!

    I successfully updated my firmware to 1.2 this morning (yay!) but I still do NOT get EQ on my iphone. I'm using the latest iPhone app, version 1.3.8. Is there a newer version of the app that I need if I want EQ? If so, where and when will it be available?

    Custom Art FIBAE 4 announcement

    OK, so I finally received my Fibae 4's yesterday, after a long journey from Poland to Los Angeles via UPS. These are my first customs, and all I can say is 'WOW.' These things are truly marvelous and are bringing nothing but great joy to my old ears. I'm not one to describe sound signatures...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    I'm going to throw my quick take here on the E4000, which I impulse-bought last week on Amazon for $129 (for some reason the price dropped from $149); these things are, as many have noted, truly terrific, absolutely amazing for the price. Mine aren't broken in yet, but I love the tuning, and...

    Thank you, Mashuto, that's hugely helpful!

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Thank you, Mashuto, this is really helpful to me, as I own the Atlas and think they sound superb, but, like you, I find that because of their weight they become uncomfortable during long listening sessions. What I really want is the comfort of the E3000 combined with the sound quality of the...

    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    I apparently have odd shaped ear canals and have trouble finding a perfect fit with IEM's. I picked up a pair of E3000's this week out of curiosity (they were so reasonably priced, I couldn't resist), and what I found is that they are BY FAR the most comfortable IEM's I've ever used. Can...

    Best IEM tips?

    Thank you for this suggestion. I love my Atlas but have had a very hard time finding the right tips. I'm always a LARGE, but with CP100S inserted very deeply, I get a fantastic seal, great comfort, and perfect sound. May not need to pursue CIEMs after all...

    NEW - Campfire Comet and Atlas

    What kind of custom ear tips do you use with your Atlas? I'd love to try that option but don't know who makes them!

    Radsone EarStudio ES100

    Dumb question, but maybe someone knows: I can't get my Earstudio to work as a USB DAC on my macbook pro with any other micro USB cable than the stock one. Other micro USB cables I have will charge but not provide the DAC function. I'd like to get an additional (perhaps longer) cable to keep...

    Radsone EarStudio ES100

    I had that problem with the first ES 100 I bought. And it was accompanied by issues with the on/off button and intermittent bluetooth connection issues. I had bought on Amazon, returned it, ordered another, and have had no problems since (about a month). These devices are terrific in what...

    FiiO FH5 - Quad Driver Hybrid In-Ear Monitors || Knowles Balanced Armature Drivers

    I have had the same experience playing with different tips-- they make a huge difference in comfort and sound signature. I'd not tried foam with the FH5's, either, until recently, when I got some Dekoni Bulletz. They are an excellent alternative to the various silicone tips I've tried; they...

    Radsone EarStudio ES100

    Sure, sounds ridiculous and counter intuitive, since the wired connection is just a wire... with a dongle. But am I right that both the EarStudio and BTR3 have their own built in DACs (bypassing the one in my phone) and provide amplification, so there is at least a difference in the nature of...

    Radsone EarStudio ES100

    For what it's worth, I do hear a significant improvement in sound with the EarStudio over a regular wired connection to my phone (an iPhone Xs, which has more than decent sound to start with, and I use it with a dongle when I go wired, which is not an issue or an inconvenience). The iphone...
