Ultrasone IQ
haven't tested IQ but reckon is more bass heavy and probably less suitable for rock / metal (IQ Pro more mid centric with adequate bass when called for) but this is up to anyone's personal preference- unclesam70

Ultrasone IQ
it's the very reason why I have abandoned visiting this site and buying more iems for several months now...90% of my files are rock and extreme metal - iq pro and fiio x5 + amp are my constant jogging companion, cholesterol and triglycerides are still dropping further !- unclesam70

Hi. I would appreciate a bit of shed light on the 'balanced sound' topic - recently grabbed an hm 901 dap with a switch for N / Balanced input. What if I have a regular trs pair of iem ? do I need an adaptor or connector and which one ? in case I use a trrs iem, do I still need some adapter...- unclesam70

Shootout: 114 Portable Headphones Reviewed (Xiaomi Mi Headphones added 04/21/2015)
Hi, Just hoping that's a good thread to pop in for posting a query. I was thinking of grabbing a new iem in the upper mid / lower high tier, kinda neutral and coherent overall, in the likes of ultrasound IQ pro and akg k3003. Preferring to get an emotional sound from the music itself rather...- unclesam70

Hifiman HM901S New Flagship DAP
happily coming from a fiio x5 with e12 and paired with k3 / ultrasone pro / fad h viii / shure 535 (in that order probably lol) and thinking to upgrade the dap this time (one reason for that is the stutter fiio gets with high resolution files, although waiting for a sandisk ultra 80mb/s to fix...- unclesam70

A brief comparison/review of the AKG K3003i vs the Shure SE846
interesting... this makes you wonder whether endless research via A-Bing and comparative charting by guru in the field can ever reach a consensus, which for the aforementioned pair I thought had settled in a quite impressive soundscape (though with less impressive height and depth) for k3 as...- unclesam70

Review: InEar StageDiver Series
just puzzled about k3003 / sd4 / fibass, looking for kind of neutral, analytical, though not overly clinical or flimsy sounding ones, with punchy, meaty bass with good impact but there only when called for - menu is melodeath, nwobhm, all rock, folk, classical and renaissance polyphony any...- unclesam70

Had been indecisive on this purchase for quite some time.
