    IEM for commute <250usd

    Hi I don't have any experience with the above. However, In Hi-FI gear, I tend to respect the know how of the manufacturers. Audio Technica guys have been in the business of doing a few things only (microphones, earphones, ...), but they've had many years of experience so their products are...

    IEM for commute <250usd

    I've been using the ATH E50 for a few months now and I'm having mixed feelings about it, so worth sharing. First and foremost, this is NOT about the sound. I'm coming from AT C10 (lovely model) and I'm also using a ATH M50. So, yes, I'm a bit biased towards AT for a simple reason: I like to hear...

    Lunatique has a key point when he says that current technology is far more accurate in every segment than 10 or 15 years ago and that this enables astonishing hifi experience compared to those days. But so are the recordings. It's the full music production chain that has drastically improved...

    Audio Technica AT-PHA30i - ipod powered amp

    Make no mistake; this amp is more than portable. It's tiny and sticks to an ipod/phone with a simple rubber band. It compares to Fio, not to Ibasso or others of the kind. But it does the job quite right and does not add weight in the pocket. So, basically, it's a very well designed product.

    Audio Technica AT-PHA30i - ipod powered amp

    What's "HO" ?   I've been using the AT-PHA30i for 6 months now, and I cannot complain. It's amplifying slightly more, but enough, the Ipod signal. I don't know how this can be done but the sound is much better when I'm using the amp, vs simply using the Ipod "out". It should not be because...

    Audio Technica AT-PHA30i - ipod powered amp

    I received mine yesterday from benippon.com (http://benippon.com/fr/catalogsearch/result/?q=at-pha30i). I don't have another amp so I cannot tell the difference. I was also afraid to have made a mistake because of battery consumption. Wrong! AT designed it so that it does not draw too much...
