Heya folks,   I've been thinking of getting into headphones after a long stint in IEMs - sigh, this site     Anyhow, have had a read through this read over the past few days - thanks for all your impressions and comparisons! The 99 Classics look like a great place to start!    So I'm...

  I've owned the FXA7 for 3 months now, so I figured I'd chime in to help those wondering if they should grab one. I must say that my experience has been quite different from the recent complaints. Mine pair has held up very well under quite significant usage (listening sessions on alternate...

  That really isn't the case at all. Through a strange turn of events, I happen to have both the Harmony (one nozzle broken) and FXA7 on hand. I can assure you that the FXA7's signature is pretty similar to the Harmony: the great mids, full bass remain, but (as was the intention with the...

I'm not sure if this has been posted earlier but I just thought I'd share it if hasn't...   BH photo has the Forte going at $399 249! The Harmony was going at $299 earlier but it sold out real quick. Fortes are still a great deal for anyone interested in picking one up 

Oops  read that too quickly, my bad. Thought you'd bought both the M and the X-Batt. Glad to know that I'm in good & experienced company then!   Nope, not that I recall. You can actually just use a small flat-head screwdriver - if its the correct size, and you apply the right pressure, it...

Congrats! I'm rather late to the party, having just grabbed myself an M just over a month ago.   Having tried many DAPs (like the AK120ii, P1, L5Pro, QP1R), I'd glad to report that M very much holds its own: it has a timbre and musicality like no other, staging & imaging is fantastic, and...

  Woah, that's quite a claim. I've had my eye on the Onkyo DP-X1 and Fiio X7 for quite a while, but undeveloped firmware and UI are pushing me towards the L5Pro - not that the firmware in the L5Pro is much better, but at least it works well! Haha.    Cleg - if you don't mind me asking...

  Quote:   I don't post very much - but I've been lurking around this thread wondering how the ZX100 compares to my (thick-sounding) ZX2...   For those who want to take the plunge, Treoo in Singapore sells it for SGD$699 without the buds. That's a great deal if you intend to use your own...

Thanks mate - just sharing my thoughts and hoping to help anyone who's considering getting a pair. CIEMs are terribly expensive these days...      Yep! Turned out quite abit clearer than I expected, but boy am I glad they did 

Long time lurker here - but Jack & the Earwerkz team really deserve some recognition...   First things first, Jack is positively the best Customer Service Officer I've communicated with in a decade. After having gone through JH (sigh), Heir, Westone... Jack's CS really stands out. Apart from...

Quote:   Haha, the one thing I REALLY wanna do is to grab a 4.Ai, share the poison around and encourage folk down the destructive path of customs. Or at least, away from those damned apple earbuds. Anyway that's a great, was really looking for a concise comparison on the differences in...

Quote:   I'm not too sure myself, really. Would the 4.A be considered close to an end-game CIEM for its neutral sound signature? I.e. like the way the 8.A has been described by those who review it as 'the end' [for now] of the search for the bassy, warm but transparent & clear sound. 

Quote:   Man I love how you started that off (in bold). Yeah, I guess it's unsurprising that the 4.Ai doesn't perform as well the 4.A - just think, the implications for the customs vs. universals debate would be disastrous  heh. Then again, I doubt 4.Ai owners really know what they're...

Quote:   Certainly! If I may direct you to my post...        I'd definitely appreciate any impressions you have comparing the 4.Ais to anything that's out there, provided that you don't have insanely elephantine ears like Sinocelt and hear the 4.A/4.Ai with vastly differing...

Quote:   From my experience, the UE case fits CIEMs (in general) with TWag V2 and oyaide plugs perfectly, so they shouldn't have any problems with Heir customs too (: love that case.     Anyhow, are any fortunate folk lucky enough to own both the 4.A and 8.A able to shed light on...

Really looking forward to impressions of these. Was so tempted to just order some myself - they're insanely affordable! ~~subscribedd        As far as I can tell they're the same (same pricing), so the Flex option is just meant to make available every damn option there is..

Quote:   Yes! The moment of pure joy when you get the sound that you've been looking for... I love how well these things respond to EQ. It's such a pity they don't fit you well though - if you decide to get the UE900, I really wouldn't mind taking them off ya... the more pairs the...

Quote:   I feel the exact same way every time I stick them into my ears. The expansive atmosphere that they create with live recordings, even with bad recordings... I honestly have not found it elsewhere, not even in my current JH11s/other demo CIEMs (which isn't that fair a comparison)...

Any current/ex-JH11 owners able to do a comparison between the two? Wondering whether this'll serve as a nice upgrade from the 11... Wasn't really covered in the review.

Yeahhh heh. And to stay away from any other threads that encourage us to spend more than our wallets can handle ;D

That's a pity. What kinda look exactly were you hoping for?   And perhaps you'd wanna consider the AS-1; the adjustable bass port would be helpful since you listen to a wide variety of genres..

Quote:   Ooops my bad! Hahaha well then you should consider grabbing his and trying it out with the 1.2 :P the Heir IEMs are so bloody tempting it's poisonous to see them on this site..

Frankly dude, if you're deaf in one ear you'd be better off posting a WTB classified for one side - it'd save you a helluva lotta money. Normally single-sides go for a fraction of the original price.. Also, for IEMS like the se215/um1/W1, wearing em non over-ear is kinda... hard. Not...

Quote:   +1 for the JH5. IMO for the price you're paying the JH5 is a bloody steal. Spectacular comfort, isolation and sound - they do have a bass hump like most JH IEMs though, but it doesn't muddy the mids/highs or anything. And if you're quick enough JH Audio is having a 15% sale  now...

Quote:   Aww dude, a comparison might just convince me to grab myself a AS-1 as well. They only thing that's been holding me back is the ASG-2 upgrade soon to come..   Quote:   Heh yeah... I've been so damn tempted to grab myself a Heir 4.A/8.A/3.Ai considering the glowing...
