Recommend a small DAC/Amp with a big soundstage
Thanks, I had not considered that one. It seems like the Predator and the Pico are front-runners, with the Predator winning out on the soundstage battle. If anyone can comment on how these two compare to a Micro DAC + Micro Amp, I would appreciate it.- Armonster20

Recommend a small DAC/Amp with a big soundstage
I'm looking for a small, portable DAC+Amp that can rival my Headroom Micro stack in sound quality. In particular, I am most interested in equivalent levels of separation and sound stage. The particular sound signature is not as much of a concern (I will be using an EQ on the computer) as long...- Armonster20

Is there any IEM that sounds like the RE-Zero but has a wider soundstage?
I haven't had much success in increasing the soundstage of the RE-Zero by EQ-ing, so I've pumped up the mids on the IE8 instead. I'm still testing it out, but this is my favorite setup so far. Here is how I have it set: Lowest bass adjustment setting; Preamp: -8dB; Hz -- dB 32...- Armonster20

I am also curious about the SE530. Do these, or any IEMs mentioned above, have a similar sound signature to the RE-ZERO?- Armonster20

Is there any IEM that sounds like the RE-Zero but has a wider soundstage?
I am wondering whether any IEM combines the mid-centric, balanced sound signature of the RE-Zero with the awesome soundstage of the IE8. Is there anything that comes close?- Armonster20

Bringing out mids/highs in IEMs
Interesting insight. How can you tell whether it's a soundstage or midrange issue? And if it is soundstage, how do you train your ears to adapt to that? I did bump up the computer EQ from around 1k to 8k and it seemed to help somewhat.- Armonster20

Bringing out mids/highs in IEMs
Somewhat new to the game, so excuse my lack of knowledge and potential misuse of the audiophile buzzwords. I originally posted this in the IEM forum, but I didn't get much of a response. My current setup is laptop --> Headroom Total BitHead --> IE8s (or sometimes Sennheiser HD280...- Armonster20

Bringing out the mids of IE8s?
Is the Icon Mobile a step up from the Headroom Total Bithead, or does it just have a different sound signature?- Armonster20

Bringing out the mids of IE8s?
Somewhat new to the game, so excuse my lack of knowledge and potential misuse of the audiophile buzzwords. My current setup is laptop --> Headroom Total BitHead --> IE8s (or sometimes Sennheiser HD280 Pros) I love the deep bass range of the IE8s - I think it makes the music feel...- Armonster20
