behind the nozzle and drivers. I can clearly see into the housing of the ie900, but not in the ie600

Are those the Drop X version? Cool to see them still getting use. I like how you have the tip flush with the nozzle. The shell design just never allowed them to sit in my ears right.

Are there any similar DAPs that I should be cross-shopping when looking at the N3Ultra? Main IEMs are IER-Z1R, IE900, LCD-i4, Campfire sensitive set. (OG Andro, etc.)

C'mon new day - let's get Bloom'n - "Todays prize...... A NEW CAR!"

Does anyone have side-by-side pictures of the IE600 and IE900 nozzles? My IE600 has foam behind, but the IE900 does not - is that normal?

I feel ya. Still with my JH13 FP and Ultimate Ears Reference Monitor customs. CIEMs were the only way to go back then if you wanted something above & beyond consumer grade audio. It'd be cool if I could send in my JH13 and get the internals upgraded.

The DC-Elite and DITA Project M stand out to me. I'll need to read up on them.

West Coasters understand "Siiiiiiiick bruh". What 1 product would you recommend in the $500-$1000 range - anything - what does Bloom say? How about the same for $0-500?

Did hisenior ever e-mail you a shipping update or did they just show up? Curious how these will differ from the AKG N5005 that is a 'big name' going with a somewhat similar tuning.

I had to reset a few passwords to get all 5. All I want is some candy that sometimes gets snuck into orders. :)

:wave: Campfire - please consider me if you decide to have review units of your headphones. I've been patient - it's been a couple minutes since the Cascade release. :pray:

I believe (my personal assumption) that the very first run of Andromeda's with the original machined hardware and more physical egdes/angles had different drivers somewhere in the design. There was something special about that model that I don't think my Snow White version fully is...

Campfire Audio isn't for you then. MANY special editions. Consumerism is high in headphonery.

The sound of the mechanical driver as air pressure on the front of the drivers builds and has nowhere to go on the back of the driver - so the driver makes interesting noises that people call "Flex".

With shorter tips, do you also get a deeper fit? Are they more tip dependent or depth? The Azla Sedna Max's are a pretty shallow fit, even the xlastic ones can get a deep fit with a more shallow + big bore tip.

I like limited Campfire stuff - keep me away! Curious if there is a technical breakdown between the two planars.

Andromeda Gold would be a better U12T alternative Same - they are actually tuned pretty darn flat in the grand scheme. Very reference. The Andro Gold is the 'V' shaped version of the Ara (IMO)

It's crazy that the Jerry Harvey JH13 and further versions of the Freq Phase and V2 used to be top dog and customs molds were the only way to go if you were a true audiophile. I don't even know how I would rate my JH13FP at this point. I was amazed by them when I first got them, now, my...

Going back-and-forth between the CA Black Star and Sony IER-Z1R is quite interesting. The BS* is more neutral than the Z1R. Think IE 600 vs IE900 or CA Andro Gold vs. CA Ara. The intangible of technical ability / presentation are right there with the Z1R or surpassing. The midrange is where the...

Anyone have these and possibly the Campfire Audio Cascade, Denon/Fostex, other popular closed back? This sale brings these closer to Sony MDR-Z1R prices. I think they are a fair comparison, or even ZMF

I've had my N5005 for a couple weeks now. Had to try them out at the sale price. I can say that they are worth every penny, but on sale. I think they are starting to fall behind at $1,000. The accessories and build quality are all top notch and worthy of being called 'hi-fi' - I feel like the...

Sheeesh - I hope I got the names of mine right LOL. What I call the 'Whisper' is amazingly competent - even next to the 'Mini Gold' Ultimate. I'm sure the right headphone would present the Whisper a challenge, but most of my headphones are efficient enough to sound amazing on the small...

Do the BA mids on the Z1R sound similar to the M9? M9 was always on my radar as an Andromeda owner, but dynamic drivers consumed my cash.

Very nice - price looks great also. I'll wait until this is available to order somewhere a little closer.

Drop also has the CA Supermoon at a great price of 599.99 and use the $20 off. Not bad.
