Klipsch's NEW line of Reference X IEMs (X6i, XR8i, X12i, X20i)
Not sure if this has been posted yet so ignore if it's old news. I've had the Kipsch xr8i since they were released. I like a lot of bass, but also prefer a balanced sound signature. I've somewhat loathed these because the bass was overpowering and seemed to drown the mids and highs. Today I...- Wingsabr

iPhone 6 (& Plus) & iOS 8 Sound Quality Discussion
I have the space gray iPhone 6+ and I'm very impressed with the sound quality. I'm using the BW P7 and I'll echo what others have shared about the sound........warmer, great depth and detail, and good staging. I listen with BW P7's.- Wingsabr

iBasso D2+ Boa Mini Review
^ my experience out of the box was the same with the Boa, but with time it opens up quite nicely. Looking forward to some comparisons and I think we can all agree that each product they offer is very well built, sounds great and the decision comes down to price and feature comparisons.- Wingsabr

Yes I'm very happy with it and I'm one of those electronics that has the money to spend, but I also respect diminishing returns and usually go mid with my toys. Not willing to break the bank for small performance...- Wingsabr

iBasso D2+ Boa Mini Review
That back switch changes the charge mode from off to on. Basically if you are using as a dac it prevents the battery from charging unless you want it to while it's plugged into USB, either way the switches are very sturdy so no worries there- Wingsabr

iBasso D2+ Boa Mini Review
The power switch is the pot circular knob. That other switch is for the impedance gain and both are very sturdy, meaning that they don't accidentally/easily do anything I don't want them to like turn off, switch to low gain etc.- Wingsabr
