Hi there, I am located in Southeast Asia, so I think purchasing from online or outside SE Asia is gonna be difficult. When you import things you also get import tariff and stuff. Is the Beyerdynamic audiophile grade IEM? I have only been using Audeze Sine for the most part of my listening, do...

Hi guys, somebody offered me around 650$ for this headphone 2nd hand, he bought it in August 2018. Do you think it’s worth the price? Right now I am using Audeze Sine as my portable headphone and really satisfied with it, but I’m looking to upgrade. I also own 1more Quad and liked it, even...

Hi there, for years I've been looking to buy the perfect portable headphone / IEM. Now that I have the opportunity and the budget, there's a 2nd hand Noble Audio Kaiser Encore / Katana for around 1200$ in my country. There's also a 2nd hand Focal Elear for 850$, figure if i get the Elear I will...

I like the sound signature of the Sine, but a better soundstage and a much better comfort would be nice.

hi guys, have been using the Sine for over a year now. Looking forward for a significant upgrade with >1000$ budget. Any ideas? as long as it's portable (full sized on ear or IEM doesn't matter). Thank you!

Digital Trends & The Verge both said that this IEM is comparable or even best the EL-8 open.. One of them even said this is one of the best sounding IEM, comparable to a 1,600$ IEM. Reviewer on Head Fi even compare this to Audeze LCD-2.. Now I'm interested.

If you guys like video games you should listen to Nobuo Uematsu's Distant Worlds I, II & III. It contains music from Final Fantasy series played by an orchestra. The quality is quite superb to my ears.

For me the headphone gets uncomfortable after 1 or 2 hours because it presses against my ears.. Maybe it's because of the on ear design, nothing I can do about it. Soundwise it's really good.

Hi guy.. What would you consider a direct upgrade from the Audeze Sine? For the sound I'm satisfied enough, it quite holds up to some 1000$ open headphones I tried.. But the Sine is lacking in comfort. I need a closed headphone with great comfort and not too bulky. Thanks Edit : If anyone has...

From your bio it seems that you got some awesome headphones. Do you think the Sony is worth 399$? Does it sound as good as any other headphone in it's price range? How would it compare to Westone W80? Thanks

Nice reply and thanks for the article. IMO Sony MDR1000X -and QC35 sounds very artificial and not natural to my ears. For my IEM experience, I used to owna Dunu DN 1000 and took it to a few plane trips, before it broke down a year ago. The isolation is better than the Sine, but because the tip...

Thanks for the reply. I have tried it wired so I think it should sound uncompressed. Any other suggestions? Maybe IEM?

Nice you finally make your minds.. The detail is quite amazing indeed. Now it's time for me to find an IEM / Or any other headphone with the same SQ but with much better isolation.. The Sine doesn't seal very well.

I play games daily with this.. Mostly FPS, I can tell you they sounds really good and you can really where the footsteps are coming from and how near they are. It also sounds good for movies because of the punchy bass.

So they sounds like you're listening to an open headphone?

Is is true that this IEM have poor sound isolation? I'm looking for an IEM that has great sounds with good isolation for travelling.. Right now i'm using Audeze Sine and to me it sounds phenomenal, but lacking in isolation. Thanks

Hi there, As the title suggest I'm currently looking for the best travelling headphone / IEM that I will use mainly on the airplane. Right now i have an Audeze Sine, which to me sounds phenomenal but lacking in isolation. I'm looking for ANC / IEM / or any other headphone that offers much...

I also heard that because of it's an open design, there's barely any sound isolation with that? Is that true? Most people agree they sound fantastic though.

Sure but just don't expect a ton of upgrade from X2. As whether using that amp will increase the SQ or not, I could not answer because I never tried that amp. I almost exclusively use the SINE with the cipher cable connected to an iPhone 7 plus And to me that sounds better than X2 connected to a...

Detail I think is more existent on the SINE compared to the X2, but not by much. I can really really hear every instrument separation, very detailed. I would give it a 9/10. As an upgrade from the X2, I would say you need some time to notice the differences other than the bass quantity, not...

I am also thinking about Fostex TH900 MK 2, but it is a closed headphone so I don't know whether is it any better than Elear. Any other choice? Thanks.. What do you guys think of Audeze LCD or Sennheiser HD 800 S?

Hi guys, I currently own a Philips Fidelio X2 and Audeze SINE connected to a Fiio E17K. What over ear open headphone do you guys think would be a jaw dropping upgrade over the X2? My budget is 2000$ for the headphone only. ATM I am thinking about Focal Elear, as I heard that HD 800 have a...

I actually have both. In terms of sound quality I think SINE is quite more neutral and sounds clearer with better mids. Fidelio X2 have better bass with bassy characteristic and more suitable for electronic music, playing games or watching movies. The soundstage is also more spacious than SINE...

Hi guys, I'm looking forward to buy MDR 1000X because I heard it's the best ANC headphone right now with the best SQ.. Right now my main headphones are Philips Fidelio X2 & Audeze SINE, connected to my PC w/ Fiio e17k or straight to my iPhone 7 plus. Can you guys answer a few of my question...
