I actually prefer the quieter on/off chime. It was startling to have a very loud “on” chime before the firmware update- I often forget how loud I am listening to music the previous session

Still having this problem from October of last year??

Halt the EVO assembly line! Someone doesn’t want an XR tuning

Subscribed and vaccinated!

Would the fiio A3 (270 mW into 32 ohms) be a good portable amplification solution for the aeon rt closed?

Here’s pics of my recently purchased er4sr from Adorama (used). It’s the newest Lucid Audio version- sounds amazing and I actually prefer the bass on the er4sr vs the er2xr (listening to the last 20 seconds “Walkies” by Vulfpeck and the er4sr has a bass drum texture that is so real!!) I’m...

4xr or 4sr?

Any recommendations for a pair of headphones that have ety sound? I’m looking for something that has the imaging and clarity of the Er series- the thing I appreciate about er2xr the most is it’s ability to convincingly put a sound anywhere in space would focal elegia fill that role well?

Alright thanks for the info! Much appreciated!!! I may have to get one of the random usb-c dac/amps that is compatible with Nintendo switch handheld mode... So weird that the 3.5mm out isn’t compatible with the xcan

Anyone use the xcan wired to the Nintendo switch 3.5mm out? There are very few capable dac/amps compatible with switch. Or anyone use xcan with iPhone apple dongle via 3.5mm out? getting tired of using the apple USB adapter for my usb dac/amp... I always have to be very careful not to bend the...

I’m soooo close to picking up the er4sr... and I only bought the er2xr a few weeks ago But, seeing all the recent price drops on the ER series makes one think a new etymotic line is incoming... are they due for a next generation ety???

I purchased er2xr “like new” on amazon warehouse a few months ago. The triple flange tips had a bunch of ear wax, but I cleaned them and I use those tips every day now. Sound quality is amazing every time I put them in

Does it sound better from the es100 with balanced cable vs wired to 3.5mm out of phone?

I've been listening to er2xr for the last week and am very impressed with it listening to amazon music hd from the apple lightning to 3.5mm dongle. I've been wanting to see if these can be improved with more powerful source, but I don't want to mess with apple's otg usb adapter anymore. Has...

I agree with you about the tuning of the e3000. For me, the e3000 will always be my first love. However, I’ve moved on to the etymotic er2xr, which can be found in $100-$120 range. The er2xr is better than the e3000 no question- especially in imaging and detail. But, the e3000 is better at...

Are you having to “pair” your iPhone every time? I haven’t had any problems with fast and easy “connection” with my iPhone, once it has been “paired”. The zen blue will automatically connect to the last device it was paired to. Here are steps that I take to ensure fast and easy connection every...

And if I were to catch the E5000 as well, would my usb dac amp be able to evolve the E5000 to highest level?

I’ve been really enjoying this thread after purchasing the e3000. But, reading this thread has also given me the upgrade itch... so I’m targeting the e4000 next. My question is: can the e4000 be driven well from the monolith usb dac amp with iPhone as source? I believe the monolith usb dac amp...

Oh and yes, both tight budget and curious

My experience so far: monolith usb dac >>>> VE Odyssey HD > iPhone SE 2016 3.5 mm the odyssey hd works well with monk plus ear buds, but that’s about it. I’ve been very impressed/surprised at the improvement with the monolith. Looking forward to your btr5 comparison
