I own the following IEMS : Westone W40,  Dunu DN1000 and Shure 535s and for a while I've been thinking of upgrading to something better.   Last year when I was in NYC I popped into B&H and auditioned the Shure 848s. When I listened to them through my Samsung Note 4 for a short period of time...

I don't know why but recently I've started to scratch that itch again ... it's time to throw more money down on some IEMs. In the past I've had :   Triple Fi (great highs) ie8 ( muddy bass) Ortofon e-Q7 (great mids)   And I currently own the following :   Shure 535 Westone W4R (sent...

Don't ask me how but I managed to catch my 535's in the car door as I shut it. Both tips snapped off and remain in the silicon earpieces which were attached.       These things are only a couple of months old and cost me £430. I'm wondering what the best way forward would be to...

Are there any shops in Central London which have a good selection of iems at a fair price. Ideally I would like to listen to them before purchasing but I'm sure that's a little too much to ask for. I'm aware of Handheld Audio but they're based in Enfield which is a bit of a trek from where I...

Hi Guys I had my Triple Fi for just over 18 months when they broke a few months back. What I really liked about these IEMs was the high end sparkle and that they seemed to go well with my Sony A829 DAP and my H120/MBP iBasso D10 combination. When they broke, I decided that I would give...

Last night after having them for 14 months, my Triple Fi's died on me - sound only comes out of one of the earpieces. I swapped the drivers around to prove that it wasn't a cable issue ... Now I'm looking to replace these with a different IEM but for a similar cost. Even though I was happy...

I currently own the following ... Ultimate Ears Triple Fi with Lune cable Sony A829 - which I use when at the gym or when in transit Mac Book Pro/iRiver iHP 120 -> iBasso D10 via optical which I use at all other times. I'm now contemplating what my next upgrade will be and wanted some...

Hi All, I'm considering getting the iBasso D2 Boa as I would like to move up a level in terms of sound quality. Currently I own - Sony A829 walkman Ultimate Ears Triple Fi Senheisser HD25-1 Mac Book Pro. I'm quite happy with the sound that I get from the Sony and UE pairing but I...

Hi All, For a while now I've been thinking of what my next pair of portable headphones should be and I have came up with a short list of 4. 1) Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 2) Shure 530 3) Jays qjays 4) Sleeks SA6 I've owned quite a few in-ear phones in the past and none have them have...

Hi All, At home I use a pair of Senheiser HD25 with the HD600 cable upgrade. I realize that there are better sounding headphones out there but these sound pretty good to me. I want to get a pair of IEMs/earphones that I can use whilst in transit and at my desk at work. I've tried several...
