    Monoprice Monolith AMT Headphones

    I agree with @Fibre101 here in that the AMT's are light in the sub bass, it's one of the reasons I sold my set not long after getting them. And I also agree that planars are able to go much lower and hit much harder than the AMT's. I tried using both physical and sofware based EQ and before the...

    IMR Audio : Sonic Adventures & Impressions

    I didn't buy an Enigma so I don't really have any skin in this game, but I kind of disagree with you here. I feel like it's almost a slap in the face to those IMR customers that paid a hefty price for their Enigmas and waited through all the bull:poop: stories, only to have Bob slash the prices...

    IMR Audio : Sonic Adventures & Impressions

    I ended up preferring the open on all the IMR's I've owned that have had the option. I also prefer open back headphones so maybe that has something to do with it?

    IMR Audio : Sonic Adventures & Impressions

    I'm not sure what Bob's intended sound profiles were for the open and closed back options, but what I heard was similar to what @Zeppmeister said. When open I hear a more spacious and clear presentation that I enjoy, with a slight decrease in the lows. So I just EQ a bit of lows back and I get...

    IMR Audio : Sonic Adventures & Impressions

    I heard the differences between open and closed on my R1 Zenith, and my Opus Mias as well when I had them. So maybe the Enigma open is more than snake oil.

    I'm curious as well. If you do some resistance testing, post up your results. I'm glad you're digging the Scarlets. They really do take some juice. I have to go to 90 on my M11, which is higher than any of my other IEMs. Totally worth it though.

    @jerick70 So, now that you've had 5 minutes with them, what is your initial take on the Scarlets? Lol

    It really is a good looking cable and the color matches the Melodys perfectly.

    That sucks bro. You could go to Harbor Freight and grab a set of THESE picks. I'm sure one could help to get the remaining piece out and save you some time and money.

    Wow, $9 for that cable is crazy good. Can't go wrong at that price.

    The cable? It's nice and pliable, doesn't have a bunch of memory from being wound up in a case, and sounds exactly the same as the red upgrade cable that comes with the FATFreq Scarlets. But that stock cable is stiff and less usable imo.

    I'm stoked for you bro. I'm digging the Scarlets more now than the day I got them. I loved the idea of the red cable on the IEM, but I just didn't love the stock one so I ended up getting a red one that @Podster had talked about a couple weeks back. Much more pliable and sounds exactly the...

    Isn't that exactly the way this hobby goes? Buy something, start enjoying it and damn if something new doesn't come out a week or two later, lol.
