    HE400 owner tired of fighting SMC connectors

    I apologize if I missed it, but I've searched off and on the past 2 days and I can't find what I'm looking for. I know it exists because I remember seeing it. I want to replace the SMC connectors with 2.5mm female jacks. Which ones should I use and how is the mod done? Is there a connector that...

    CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest

    Can you compare them to any other IEMs that I might have? KZ-ATE, KZ-ZS1, W1 pro. How is the soundstage? Mids?

    CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest

    Bloated bass is a little distracting to me. I like present bass but well behaved and balanced. If I could get some IEMs that sound like my HE400 with the audeze vegan pads, that would be amazing.

    CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest

        I don't necessarily want a bright pair of IEMs but I do like airyness and detail. Is the bass tighter on the zs3 or Tennmak? Is the highs more detailed on the zs3 or Tennmak? Anyone used the YHS 002? It's a 1DD+1BA

    Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread

    Is there a spreadsheet that compares IEM with features, sound, price? There seems to be so many options in the <$50 range that it's making it hard to figure out what will fit my needs the best.

    Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread

    I'm weird. I have a policy to never use EQ. If I don't like how something sounds, padroll/tip roll. If I still don't like it, then it's not for me.

    Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread

    So for someone who is a big fan of large soundstage, authoritative but controlled bass/sub-bass, mids that grab your attention, and detailed but airy and non fatiguing high; what is there? It doesn't sound like the zs3 or the eg009 is right for me. It seems that IEMs that have the SQ I'm looking...

    How does the Seahf EG009 compare to the ZS3:in the soundstage, subbass, bass, mids, treble department?

    Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread

    So you think the Zs3 uses a non standard connector? That blows. There are non memory wire replacements on AliExpress that claim to be for kz-zs3, I wonder if they are worth it. I'm just looking to step up from the ate and zs1

    Can anyone recommend a reputable seller on AliExpress for the KZ-ZS3? Also can I use standard 2pin cables with them? I know I'm going to fight that memory wire to get a comfortable fit.

    How does the ZST compare to the ZS3? My only other experience with IEMs is the ATE and ZS1.

    The **** 4in1 isn't the kind of wearing style I'm looking for. I've fought too often with the super stiff memory wire on my KZ-ZS1. How is the memory wire on the zs3? What kind of sound signature does it have?

    CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest

    I'm looking for some new IEMs. I listen to mostly EDM and some downtempo stuff. I'm looking for big soundstage, tight bass, great mids, and airy/relaxed highs that retain detail without fatiguing sensitive ears. Around the ear preferable. Comfortable for long listening sessions is also a must...

    DIY tube amp for planar headphones

    Is there any tube amps that can take balanced input and balanced output on a budget. I'm sure hybrid would be the cheapest. Maybe I could build 2x 12au7 millet hybrid and have one knob control 4 channels. Do you think it would work?

    Is there a build you you suggest for using the cheap output transformers? Something that has a PCB or well documented enough to be someone's first point to point?

    What would be the best IEM in the <=$30 range for running? Inline microphone is a requirement, high durability and stay putness is also a must. Thank you for any suggestions. I listen to house, chillstep, classical, and hiphop.

    DIY tube amp for planar headphones

    I do not mind hybrid, it's just I already have a hybrid I built and i am looking for something different. Something more Tubey. I do not have the technical experience to design a tube amp or even have the tubes biased correctly. Is these a specific build you would suggest for hybrid? Budget...
