Hi, I am looking for advice on IEMs with over-ear design in the range about 300 $-1000 $ with slightly recessed mids/vocals, with some extra bass/ sub bass and great separation and sound stage. Music I listen to: Power Metal and Melodic Death Metal My favorite headphones of all time (full...

Hi, a few days ago a screw broke inside the hinge/joint on the left side. It seems like the rest of the screw is stuck inside the joint. Is it possible to find some replacement parts to exchange the broken parts? Is it any other possibility to fix problem? Which of the three Fostex...

Hello fellow headfiers!   When my Westone W60 broke (fell on the floor), I had to start looking for a new IEM. To date, the W60 are the best IEMs I have tried, with great instrument separation, huge soundstage and nice non-fatiguing smooth sound. However, they are actually not My favorite in...

Hi fellow head-fiers, today I received a pair of Velvets bought second hand (so don`t suggest more burn-in). But they were not as good match for me as I anticipated.   My prevous 'expensive' IEMs were the Westone W60, which I enjoyed until it dropped on the ground and broke (less volume and...

Hi, I currently use Kef x300a as desktop speakers, and I previously had the B&W mm-1. I see that the new Kef Eggs got a good review in What Hifi, but there are no stores in Oslo that have these for audition. Have anyone here tried these speakers, especially for a desktop system? Any comparison...

Hi, I am an happy owner of the Denon AH-D5000, but sometimes it would be nice with a second pair with better sound isolation. They do not need to be portable and can be full sized. What I like with the D5k is the great soundstage, where instruments are placed all over the place. The sub-bass -...

Hi, I am currently using the Westone 4R, although I am quite pleased with them I am looking fore something that could please me even more. The highs are quite ok, recessed enough to avoid listning fatigue when listening to poorly produces heavy metal albums. I feel that the mids are a little too...

Hi, I have never owned a balanced armature IEM, but I am eager to try one. Although I have read many reviews (especially multi IEM thread by Joker, and some other reviews here and there). One of the problems is that the balanced IEM often are compared with each other (in the same price range)...
