    Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk

    I have tried the IE 900 with numerous sources, both desktop and portable. Ignoring the desktop side of things (for obvious reasons), I'd say the following "reasonably budget" dongles will be excellent in terms of pairing: 1. Cayin RU7 2. Questyle M15 3. iFi Go Blu (with xBass+, it's an absolute...

    Great buyer. Prompt payment and good communication. Recommended.

    Received the OG HD 800 (SDR modded) today, and with this, my collection of Sennheiser headphones and IEMs is now complete. The IE 900 still gets the most listening time but each of these have their specific strengths that keep them relevant.

    DUNU - Discussion/Impressions Master Thread

    Already got a Hulk Pro Mini (paired with Final E5000) but I like the cable so much, and the sales price is so good, that I ordered a 2-pin one. Ah well. Either way, highly recommended cable.

    The Watercooler -- Impressions, philosophical discussion and general banter. Index on first page. All welcome.

    For me, the best part about the pairing with CMA Twelve Master is how tight and slammy the bass becomes. The Supermoon already has good bass slam but CMA Twelve Master takes it up a notch. On the Bonneville, I have to use low-gain and greatly reduce the volume pot (because of how sensitive it...

    So, I finally caved in, bit the bullet, and got both the Campfire Supermoon and Campfire Bonneville. I really like this new flat-braided cable that Campfire is bundling with the higher-end IEMs. Not a big fan of the carrying cases though which are oversized to a degree and offers no...

    Review by 'kmmbd' on item 'MOONDROP Aria Snow Edition'

    I will keep this review short and sweet, since the Moondrop Aria SE (Snow Edition) are more of a side-grade to the already reviewed Moondrop Aria (2021). The primary differences lie in the color, the driver (and corresponding tuning), and of course – accessories. I think Moondrop could have...

    Review by 'kmmbd' on item 'KZ D-Fi with 4 tuning switch 1x10mm DD'

    It’s been a while since I have last reviewed a pair of KZ IEMs. Almost three years, to be exact. I missed out on quite a few KZ models in that period but from a tuning perspective, they were mostly more of the same. However, around the end of 2022, KZ began to churn out some interesting models...

    The discovery thread!

    Final VR2000 are here. At $70, undoubtedly one of the, if not the best bang-for-buck gaming IEMs. The staging is phenomenal, and vocals are projected somewhat in front of you (unlike "in your head" which is normal for most IEMs). Live music and binaural audio sounds phenomenal as a result. I...

    With reluctance, I have decided to let go of my beloved Hifiman HE6se V2 that I purchased last year, and have been grille modded with custom, 3D-printed grilles. Always used with utmost care inside my home which is smoke and pet-free. I used the headphones very rarely, once every week or so...

    Precog's IEM Reviews & Impressions

    Very interesting video about the entire work process behind the Mirai IEMS. Congratulations @Precogvision on the release. Really looking forward to listening to them. Also very keen about the open-back/vented Knowles super-tweeters. Not sure if there are any other IEMs that are using that at...

    SMSL's new flagship amp, SMSL VMV P2 for sale or trade. Used for a few weeks. Tremendously powerful (6W @ 32 ohms), easily drives my HE-6se V2 at medium gain. Also great with IEMs at low gain. Selling because I am simplifying my desk setup with an all-in-one unit. For trade I am willing to...

    Review by 'kmmbd' on item 'HIFIMAN HE400se'

    HiFiMAN is one of the few brands that offer the most expensive, alongside perhaps the cheapest, pairs of planar-magnetic headphones in the market. The HE400se are of the latter category and strangely enough, have a few of the latest technical breakthroughs employed by their more expensive...

    The discovery thread!

    Cayin RU7 pairs really well with the Sennheiser HD 660S2. I usually avoid dongles as much as possible but the RU7 is getting a lot of listening time lately. The smooth, organic sound gets addictive.

    The discovery thread!

    Truthear Nova FIRST IMPRESSIONS Truthear Nova are the latest hybrid IEMs from the current chi-fi darling brand. It's a 1DD + 4BA setup, which is not too dissimilar to that of the Truthear Hexa. At $150, the Nova are the current "flagship" in Truthear's lineup, so a lot of expectation is riding...

    The discovery thread!

    You are not wrong. What you saw was the EA2000 which was more of an "experimental" release for them. The EA1000 is supposed to be all around a more mature product (using 2nd gen tech of PR and the main driver).

    The discovery thread!

    The last thing you expect to find inside an IEM packaging: Fermat's Last Theorem. Simgot does exactly that with the EA1000's packaging and overall theme. Simgot's marketing ploy is only for the scientifically inclined, but it's such a breath of fresh air and a welcome departure from the stale...
