    The FitEar CIEM Impressions Thread

    I own a MH335DDWSR currently and I am actively considering to make a EST or DC custom in coming Oct or Nov. I saw that the DC is using short tips instead of the long tips in EST or 335. Would that affect the sound and isolation? And would that lessen physical fatigue to the ear canal?

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

    Just joined the WM1Z club half year ago. I am a 40+ years old IT guy and I already got enough tech things during my jobs at daytime. When I am off work, I just want to turn on my 1Z and listen to musics and relax. No wifi, no tidal, no root, no mod rom, no upgrade etc, just musics please...

    tbh i feel not comfortable to replace it myself, might as well leave it as is and wait for the Sony price drop a bit (or maybe some promotion offer) and change camp ...:grimacing: thanks all for the replies, happy listening :smile_phones:

    DX200=Affordable High End Audio. Dual ES9028Pro dacs. AMP1, AMP3, AMP5, AMP7 & AMP8 ***Firmware support now up for AMP9***

    Sorry if this has been asked for a while. Is there any way to improve battery life of the DX200? My 1.5 year old DX200 with Amp8 now can run for around 3 hours max only, in pure Mango mode, that means it needs battery replacement already?

    Sony announces the "Just ear" brand of custom IEMs

    Yes, ordered mine two weeks ago, and made my ear mold last week. The ear mold must be done by Sony authorised doctor, and she will use the special device provided by Sony to make the mold. The HKD16888 already included the ear mold, so you don't need to pay at the doctor.

    DX200=Affordable High End Audio. Dual ES9028Pro dacs. AMP1, AMP3, AMP5, AMP7 & AMP8 ***Firmware support now up for AMP9***

    I use MH335DWSR with my DX200 on high gain setting. On amp1 balance, my vol level is 54, and on amp2 se, the vol level is 64. Vol level higher than those will make my ears feel stressful and painful after one or two songs. Not sure why people reported they need vol level > 90 to drive an iem...

    Sorry if this is already asked, but since I don't know how to search this thread after the site revamp now, I would like to ask here again: Is there any way to export the playlists from Mango OS player and import to Android Mango player?

    DX200=Affordable High End Audio. Dual ES9028Pro dacs. AMP1, AMP3, AMP5, AMP7 & AMP8 ***Firmware support now up for AMP9***

    Sorry, I tried to search the other thread but seems no answer to my question.   I noticed there is a modded firmware project going on for the DX200 and I am becoming a bit interested on that. But I just worried if I flashed that modded FW and bricked my DX200, will that still under warranty by...

    Toxic Cables - Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Yeah agreed it's worth the wait, but at least someone in Toxics could at least answer the PMs or emails once in a while. This is especially for new buyers as this makes them feel more safe and confident that their money won't be lost and Toxics won't just take their money and go away and...
