Better than Audeze LCD i4? Interesting. To me only Shure KSE 1200 are comparable with LCD i4.

Very much same, LCDi4 are above any armature IEM, they beat almost all full size headphones that I've listened to, there is only handful of full size that beat i4. The only comparable IEM are Shure electrostatic KSE 1500 and KSE 1200, in some aspects I like KSE better, they seem to have even...

Thank you very much for bringing up Xelastec tips, I now have them and they are best rubber tips so far. And just like you said, they help keeping the whole ear piece in ear canal, plastic hooks are almost unnecessary now, even while jogging. It's the rubbery, sticky material and it sticks to...

Thank you, will check them out.

Do these tips go deeper inside the ear canal? Spunfits sound best to me when they are just to touching ear canal but do not enter fully. After few year with LCD i4 my main issu is ear hooks, I just can't keep rubber tips firmly in ear, they need constant readjustment while walking. LCD i4...

Headfier nakadmd offered spare hooks, and he sent them, for free, from USA to Europe. He sent several sets of hooks, and they were in Estonia in less than a week, USPS Express. Just wish to thank nakadmd and say how happy and very grateful I am! Was down to last pair of hooks, one of the hooks...

I need Audeze LCDi4 hooks and wings. But all Audeze hooks are same, I had iSine 20, and hooks are same as LCDi3 and i4. I you can spare some hooks, PM please and I gladly buy some.

Hi, how did you find the correct size hooks for Audeze in China. I am desperate to find replacement hooks for my LCD i4, Audeze web store sells them, $25.00, but FedEx is the only shipping option, and cost of shipping alone is $105.00, to Europe. I'm really need new hooks, I have broken every...

Would you be able to replace the brass Audeze logo A on one of the earpieces? It must have fallen off, looks like only glue was holding it in place. Photo here, doesn't look too sexy:

You may asking for impossible. LCDi4 with right Spinfit rubber tips come very close to being very best headphones at any price, IEM or full size. I have listened to every full size Focal, Audezes LCD 4, and every Stax, they are all offered in Hong Kong, Singapore audio stores. To me, only Stax...

The only comparable IEM to LCDI4 are Shure KSE 1500 and KSE 1200 Electrostatic. They are sound isolating due to memory foam rubber tips, built is similar to Shure SE846 and SE535. Sound of Shure KSE Electrostatics Is mind-blowing, I have listened to them extensively, and seems distortion is even...

Still available?

Wanted: Fiio M15, shipping within EU, Europe.

Very much agreed, Audeze LCDi3 are not in the same league. I did ton of listening of i3, hours, in Bangkok Munngkong Gadget, very nice shop, at their flagship shop at Amari Plaza there are usually only one customer, but more often you'd be the only one there, and you can listen for hours, their...

Understood. And it's going to be like this in China for a while, not one or two months.

Nice! 1199£ = $1550 = 1430€ Above suggested retail, but that's expected, most usual places just don't have it. Didn't it come out in Dec, now is end of Feb, and Fiio can't make enough of them. AV One quoted $1999 SGD, that's $1430 USD, once they have it in stock. AV One is kind of big deal...

I listened to M15 last week in Singapore, AV One shop has demo unit. None for sale, and the very nice guy at the shop said they won't have stock until possibly April. M15 driving my LCDi4 blew me away from first minute. It is another level from Ibasso dx200 and Onkyo X1, my favorite DAPs. Very...

I'm puzzled by weird cosmetic issue of this particular pair of LCDi4. At quick glance, you'll notice that the letter A, the golden decal on each ear piece looks different. There is substantial difference between L and R, I have never seen the logo A looking so different, one is the usual i4...

There really is no alternative to i4, except Shure KSE, other than Audeze and Shure, all other top contender IEMs are balanced armatures, with significantly higher distortion figures than Planars and Electrostats. You mentioned that timbre is the only issue compared to your Stax 009. The 009...

Understood. Goes to show we have different demands, you require complete isolation in noisy environment, I block it out. I do own several pairs of armatures, like all of us here. I just don't feel comfortable after about an hour or 2 having memory foam in my ear. It's just me, my ears start...

I assume you are American. I don't know what type of airplanes you fly, but Helsinki - Bangkok routes are newer planes, there is no 'engine roar', unless you are talking about full power at take off, lasts about 30 seconds, and near full reverse at landing. There is slight hum through the...
