Struggling to find anything that don’t limit insurance to £1k - except DHL who want £150 to send a pair of IEM which seems steep! Any others you know of?

Hi - is there such a thing for normal headphone sockets to dial them down to use with sensitive IEM Just tried to watch TV with some Tia Fourte noir but get to much noise Silly idea or great idea just needing a little gadget? :) Cheers Jamie

I hate adapters that come with a length of cable flapping around - and found this rather lovely DDHifi one from audio concierge. Thought I’d share in case others were looking for something nice and solid :) They do a nice 2.5 to 3.5 as well

My favourite IEM before was the U18T I also love the Shure KSE1200 - but find it a little “flat” and less exciting I owned the Tia Fourte before as well and absolutely loved it - but it was narrowly beaten by the U18T for my ears (and probably influenced by cost) Didn’t like IER Z1R or Jomo...

I’m a big fan of Devialet - the gold Phantoms I used to own were simply incredible for the money. Only bettered in my humble opinion and limited budget buy the Kii Three at 3 times the price. Their amps are also incredibly well reviewed although I never tried one They are also the kings of...

Anyone come up with some good ideas to minimise noise from jolting vibrations getting through to ones IEMs and causing unwanted bass tones when walking? Short of buying a battery powered scooter that is :)

Thought I was going mad then checked the classified rules thinking it must have been removed. Bit rude to not even mention it to me. At least when my bump were removed for being something like 60 hours instead of 72!!!! it was explained to me! Seems the people who responded by PM didn’t mind...

Hi all Have used Campfire Solaris, Jomo Trinity Brass and Shure KSE1500 without any tinnitus occurring I tried my new Tia Fourte for around an hour - reasonably loud but def not louder than any of the others for similar time periods of time. Same kind of music And straight away I noticed a...

The Hugo 2 is great but it’s so cumbersome out and about trying to hold that and my iPhone :) And pretty sure I am sticking with streaming speakers so don’t need it for hifi duties What’s going to be right up there for sound quality with the Hugo 2 - but with built in player with tidal /...

Shure’s KSE1500 product page is like I am trying to buy some uranium! https://pubs.shure.com/guide/KSE1500/en-US

Just enjoying a wonderful evening of music on my IEM - including a couple of glasses of vino! (Hence the post :wink: ) I think I may have discovered a downside to IEMs.... breadsticks!!! Totally ruined the moment, music ruined and it even broke the great seal I had - had to remove said...

Been doing loads of research on IEM recently including checking Crinacles ranking to point me in the direction of some options. Generally his top S / A rankings seemed in line with most opinions out there, give or take everyone though they were great. Then I noticed he had a headphone ranking...

Was thinking of getting some Snuggs custom ear tips for my Campfire Solaris - but I didn’t realise they seem to be moulded so you push half the body of the earpiece into them, so £200 would be wasted if I decided to change to a different model Are there custom tips that only slot over the...

Hi am considering getting some Focal Stellia to see what a good closed back offers that my Solaris IEM / Hugo 2 combo doesn’t. Even at circa £1800 I feel like I would paying a lot for the packaging / unnecessary leather details / fancy cables etc! So any other closed back options to consider...

Not sure if Goa Trance is the right term - but good trance not crap trance is what I mean ;) Used to listen 20 years ago and then it all got a bit much for my taste. Then picked up a load of vinyl 10 years ago and fell in love with some of the good stuff again - but still listened sparingly...

Hi all - thought I would join up for specific headphone advice :) My main system is meridian dsp6000 (digital active speakers) and turbo powered technics 1210 with Funk firm platter and arm and 2m black. Into valve phono stage into Meridian 562v preamp I wanted to get into headphones for a...
