Dignis cases
Couldn’t find a thread about these so I figured I’d start this one off with a question: anyone ordered from Dignis before?! I just ordered a case but I found the website strange to navigate, when I checked out the site is not secure, and finally I paid with PayPal and it sort of processed my...- rbf1138

Cowon players actually limited to less than 512gb storage?
I’d really like to pickup a P2 or R2 but the specs indicate they’re limited to 256gb sd cards. Can anyone confirm this is actually true? I’m wondering if they’d actually work with a 512gb card...- rbf1138

Want to go from a $100 DAP up to something potentially way pricier. Help!
I absolutely love the sound of my Shanling m0, however, I’d like a better UI (should be easy coming from the tiny m0, right?). I’m pretty picky and a finicky buggy UI will annoy me. Ultimately, sound quality is the most important feature to me, though. I only use IEMs, primarily Ety Er2xr...- rbf1138

Absolutely love the sound of the Shanling M0. What's the next step up for an improved UI/screen?
I absolutely adore the sound out of my M0 with all of my IEMs. I also love the portability of it but I'm looking for a next step up in terms of the screen size, UI, functionality of organization, etc. The same or improved better sound quality is a necessity. What should I be looking to? Thanks!- rbf1138

Help with hiss while using IEMs on Switch and PS4
I'm using IEMs with my Switch's headphone jack, along with out of my Marantz receiver when playing PS4. I realize this is probably some sort of impedance issue that's giving me a hiss behind all sound vs. the totally silent background out of my DAP. I have several pairs of IEMs but the ones in...- rbf1138

Complys for ATH-LS200?

Too many returns to Amazon?
This week I ordered four pairs of IEMs to test out from Amazon.

Almost time to replace my Audeo PFE232s...how about Shure 535?
I've had my 232s for about five years. What I like most abotu them is how comfortable they are and how easy it is for me to get a good fit and seal with them. I have smaller ears, so that's a factor. Would Shure 535s fit as well, in your opinion? Sound quality-wise, would the 535s be an upgrade...- rbf1138

IEMs for small, fussy ears that sound great
Up to this point, Audio Technica CK10s were the best fit I could find for my somewhat small ears. Can you guys tell me if the current Shure IEM line are all the same size, and if so, how big/small they are to other IEMs at the moment? I may just grab the 215s from Amazon to check fit, then...- rbf1138
