I've got an Ear Studio ES100 bluetooth DAC+Amp that I would like to use clipped to the neck of my shirt. I'd like to get a short set of cables to run from this amp to my ears. Ideally something like 15-16" / 40ish cm in length. I'd also like to get a 2.5mm balanced termination if possible...

Now that I've got my ES100, I'm looking for a more appropriate length 2.5mm balanced cable. I wear the ES100 clipped to my shirt neck, so I'm looking for a cable that's 15-16" / 40ish cm. I'd like to spend around $20-30USD including shipping to Australia. Any recommendations? Does anyone...

The HEM4 is already out of stock. Fingers crossed we see the HEM8 for $200 again!

I would prefer the next Sunday (March 14th). March 7th falls in the Labour Day long weekend and I (and probably a few others) will be taking the opportunity to get out of town.

Definitely interested. I'll bring along my woodied and MarkL modded Denon D2000s and my Pico.

I've had a long love/hate relationship with the Etymotic ER4P. They're still the best IEM for my preferences that I've listened to. But I can't listen to them for more than an hour at a time unamped or about 2 hours with a decent DAC/amp (Pico) setup. They just get too fatiguing. I do however...

Found this thread via search and thought it was worth the gravedig for historical comedy value. Hooray for no longer being crippled by low storage space (remember the good ole' days )! Although the trend to regress back to these "nano" devices is annoying. As Moore's law continues in action we...

After the mods I've had one of the cups come loose from the frame. The screws that attach the plastic driver housing to the metal headphone assembly don't get any purchase and won't screw in. The driver is still attached to the cup ok. Any recommended fixes? Cheers!

Quote: Originally Posted by markl Yeah, the differences in amount of damping aren't huge, and some people may want more or less depending on taste. The D2000 don't need as much damping, so I use a slightly thinner material. In any case, I wouldn't worry *too much* about it overall...
