    Comment by 'dieseldriver200' on listing 'Etymotic ER4S'

    Not only that, it's slightly scratchy/analogish (if that's a word) like the 45 vinyls that I adore back in the Hi-Fi Stereo days.

    I recently picked this up in like new condition for a good price. We're now in 2025 and this little device does everything I need it to do, which is just to appreciate music. Sometimes, I just want to get away with all of the Internet/Wireless madness and just in a quiet place with my collection...

    Comment by 'dieseldriver200' on listing 'Grado BT-220'

    I have two sets. Sound, I find pretty good and on par with Grado sound signature. Three gripes. BT pairing/setup is very flakey. Double-speak voice prompts are super annoying. And the disco lights. I doubt Grado people use these themselves extensively, otherwise, they would have made some...

    Even after 10+ years later after I bought this from B&H Photo+Video new, I am still using this little jewel. Latest is that I had to change the battery as the original started to give out after just few hours of playing. Few years ago, the little flap next to the 3.5mm jack fell off and lost it...

    [REVIEW] Etymotic ER4P / ER4S - The Living Legends

    I know that this review is a bit dated but today, I just received a used ER4P, won it on eBay auction. I have been using the ER4XR recently bought new during a sale on Etymotic website. I gotta tell you, this older model sounds clearer and feels more energetic than my brand new ER4XR. I had it...

    [REVIEW] Etymotic ER4P / ER4S - The Living Legends

    After discovering that the 'Holy Grail' of listening to the Etymotic ER4 series properly is to seal the ear canals properly, I no longer even touch any other IEM's in my arsenal. I now own just about every model of Etymotic that were produced since the 2000's. My preference however is the late...

    Grado Worksmanship Kind of Sucks

    Had so many Grado wired headphones over several decade. I don't think I kept any one of them except for the GW100X which I used for work which is okay. All of the wired full sized and IEM's, I've gotten rid of. Just don't like the design, and no matter what I do with the cups by swapping it out...

    Just bought Cowon iaudio 9...

    Absolutely, analog sounds very natural. I think BBE mimics the sound of LP/vinyl. But more importantly, it mimics the sound of 48 single vinyl that were produced decades ago. They just sound better than the 33's. I can never get that same sound from any digital replicas, except when BBE is...

    Just bought Cowon iaudio 9...

    Also I just realized something about why I liked the Cowon iAudio so much. It has BBE, and the high end Sony Walkman cassette player had BBE. I think that unique EQ profile that BBE provides is what have been drawn to it all these years subconsciously.

    Just bought Cowon iaudio 9...

    Yeah tell me about it, thousands of dollars for maybe <2% audio improvement over the iAudio that I bought new from B&H back in 2012-2015 for around $100 I think, not sure exactly when I bought it I think I will check the order history. But definitely got my money's worth and then some and it's...

    Just bought Cowon iaudio 9...

    Wow this thread is 14 years old. I think I bought my Cowon iAudio 9+ with 32GB back in 2012. I still have it and still use it. It drives my brand new Etymotics ER4XR with Comply ear tips so well. Sound is so analogish like in the old days of Sony Walkman with slight scratchy sound. Build in BBE...

    Any thoughts/info on the newly announced Grado GT220 true wireless in-ears?

    If it wasn't for the sound quality, I would throw them out. It's just very annoying to pair, and picking up interference is more frequent than my Jabra Actives. Also annoying is if you use Comply foams, it surprises you often with "battery low" message just when you want to put them on. Then...

    I know this thread is dated but recently, bought another AK120II after a long hiatus with AK DAPs. I personally enjoy this device very much. I got it for $150 used here on Head-Fi. Battery life was really poor, maybe 2-3 hours of playing time with the stock battery. So I bought 2500mA, 3400mA...

    Review by 'dieseldriver200' on item 'Astell & Kern AK120'

    I had bought the AK120 used. I've always wanted one, and have the AK120II. Both are very nice DAPs even almost 10 years after they were first introduced. Back then, it was very expensive but now, you can get them pretty cheap on eBay or other type of Swap Meet websites. It's perfect for someone...

    I know this is bit dated but the Metadata glitch is not a glitch. Can't blame everything on the AK120. It has to do with the Metatags that's been added by the song distributor. You can click on 'Extended Tags' on MP3Tag and check all the Metadata and simply remove the ones you don't need. That...

    Trying to source OEM rated battery replacement for AK120II

    Thanks dunring. Yes, I was looking at them, but unfortunately, they only carry replacement LiPo for AK120 and not AK120II. I actually wound up ordering on eBay from a seller in U.K. It costs way more and the mA rating is lower than the original battery (3300mA vs. 2500mA) but the seller...

    Tempting but not sure if I need this. I am using very low impedance IEM's these days so the DAPs I am using are more than adequate to get all the details I need. But definitely well sorted out portable amp.

    Just want to say thanks to Jeremy. It was such as pleasant transaction and we stayed in communication from the very beginning about the Homebrew ring to receiving the headphones today. I can honestly rest night as it was adopted by the rightful owner! :)
