Thanks for setting this up! I live nearby but have family over from out of town.  If i can sneak out (or bring them along :) would anyone be interested in: Audeze LCD XC, Chord Mojo, Centrance DACPort or Shure SE846? 

New XC owner here....and I can't agree with you more.  The sound is WOW, but the upper mids do seem  a bit hot at times.  Being used to a warmer sound, I recognize that brain burn in will help, but please let me know how the vegan pads work out for you!   Having poured through most reviews in...

and they last forever!  

After almost two years with the SE846, I finally understand why they are the perfect IEM for me.   Decades ago, uncomfortably loud music in a friend's car got my ear ringing for days and left me paranoid about my hearing ever since - i like music too much!  I’ve always been rather sensitive to...

The 846 pairs up nicely with a Chord Mojo (output impedance .075 ohms!!!!).  While some measurements suggest that the Mojo's output impedance rises with multi BA loads resulting in a loss in treble when paired up with the 846, this is not something i can hear. The 846 does surprisingly well with...

Can't speak to the authenticity of the product, but give your ears some time to adjust.  My appreciation of the 846 grows by the day, and the more high-end gear i hear, the more i like them! Just make sure you're using a low output impedance source and experiment with different tips (Spinfits...

Haven't heard the TG334 either, but the 846 definitely has what can be described as an intimate soundstage with lush vocals, amazing bass, and a somewhat laid back sound.  This is not to say that treble is lacking; it extends fairly well, especially when paired with Spinfit tips and the white...

A note of caution for those considering a purchase from amazon.co.uk...be prepared to fork out some cash if you need to return for any reason.  Amazon reimburses up to ~8GBPs for shipping but it costs ~$48 via USPS w/tracking and over $100 via UPS to send back!  Found this out the hard way while...

Fellow Mojo aficionados, i could use your advice.  Here's the story....   After lurking on this thread a while and consuming the troves of raving reviews, i pick up a Mojo to pair up with my SE846. Thanks to tips on this site, i turn to Amazon.co.uk for the $140 savings presented by Brexit...

This is happening on the non-mobile site as well.  I spoke with Brannan from customer support, and he has been very helpful.  As instructed in their response above:   "Please email your orders to contact@nobleaudio.com and we will send you an invoice with the discount applied that you can pay...

Appreciate the heads-up!  Upon order submission, the checkout page repeatedly says "Please confirm that all required fields have been filled and try again."   Of course, all fields have been filled in.  This is happening via Google Chrome as well as Safari.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

sorry, i haven't had a chance to read the 16+pages on this thread to see what equipment has been offered to the community already and  i don't have much by way of audiophile gear to share besides another pair of se846s (clear), the AT IM70 (the 846's mid fi cousin :) and a centrance Dacport...

Anyone paired the SE846 with the new JDS Labs "The Element"? Boasts an output impedance of 0.1 Ω May be too early for impressions but thoughts on how the Element compares with the O2+ODAC are most appreciated!

Perhaps this has been discussed before, but I just discovered that the yellow foams lift up the treble considerably, revealing more of the high end than the the Shure silicones and a bit more than the olives.  While treble perception is perhaps positively impacted by their attenuation of bass, i...

The UE900/SE846 cables are indeed interchangeable.  Using the UE900 blue cables w/the SE846 as I speak.  

Awesome impressions and happy travels!  Flew internationally right after i got my pair and never felt as fresh after a 17+ hour haul! On the subject of amping/impedance matching, does the C5 hiss with the 846?  Realize this is a very subjective question, but is the difference between C5 vs...

All this talk about sleep and the se846...can't help but chime in.  I have woken up with these in my ears and music playing far too many times.  But then again, I often fall asleep sitting down, curled up on the floor, and every possible position in between (once, even spread out on the landing...

If you find yourself preferring single (dynamic or BA) driver models or even multi-driver IEMs that lack crossover circuitry (for example, the AT IM70) you could credit yourself with extreme sensitivity to time alignment issues.   If you're interested in exploring this topic further...

Bingo.  Also the psychology of a guilty pleasure cannot be overstated.  Think of the Betty Crocker cake mixes.  If you've ever wondered why an instant cake mix requires the addition of fresh eggs, you will in fact uncover the genius of modern psychological manipulation (largely credited...

Hang in there.  I was initially underwhelmed (with identical sources), but my appreciation of these IEMs continues to grow by the day.  Gave up on the macbook as a source some time ago, using the iPhone 5S w/Spotify 320 exclusively now.  Tried multiple tips and of course filters.  Settled on the...

  In the same boat myself, being as I am now quite unsure of the (magnitude and quality of) sonic improvements to be had from an outboard DAC vs straight up from an iPhone 5S.  Sources include Spotify max quality and TidalHifi's lossless streaming options.  Had the opportunity to try out the...

  I'll admit no expertise in the area of external DACs but looks like the Verza only sports the old Apple 30 pin connector.  Therefore, you will need a lightning <->30pin adapter, and more importantly, lose the digital audio out from the phone (The Lightning to 30-pin adapter supports only a...

  Indeed!  Thanks all :-) Also, I confess to usually being too catatonic upon my return home from work to form a coherent thought, so while you may not hear much from me, know that I am very much around :)   I think i'll be sleeping with the 846s tonight :-D

  Yes, have been a silent lurker in these parts.  Learned a lot from you all, and enjoyed many a fine conversation without the need to interject!    My music travels with me (commute, work, gym, home, bed) and I occasionally fall asleep with it so portability is key.  I dipped my toe into the...

Aah, the days of high-end audio cards!  Bought the sound blaster Audigy 2 ZS from Best Buy a few aeons ago.  Paid close to $300 for it at the time and it was (and believe it or not, still remains) my 5.1 "home theater" solution with a bi-amped setup.  Never bought a receiver.     Getting back...
