What's wrong with the pause/play buttons? They seem to work fine for me in every app ive used (Poweramp, Fiio music, roon arc, roon remote, qobuz, tidal, etc.). (screen on or off, battery or plugged in all work -- latest firmware v1.0.5) Have you all tried resetting the device?

One thing I've noticed in using the M15S is that it tends to get really hot, and sometimes overheat when using PD, but does not have any issues with QC adapters. I've noticed this using a few different connection adapters and every time I use PD, and I use the device for a long time it gets hot...

While I do agree it would be cool for the extra buttons to be programmable, most flagship daps (really most all daps) only have 4 buttons and some dont even have knobs.... So if you're upset about that, look at the alternatives which have less options.

Haha I actually use them with the Spinfit CP360 tips that designed for TWS! They work great with my ears. Im able to get the storm to fit perfectly that it's almost flush with my ears. Ive let others try storm and it sticks out like crazy for them no matter which rip and so I'm sure it sounds...

Just keep in mind also that Storm is a rather large IEM with a short nozzle. It may not fit the same from user to user ears and we know that can play a huge impact on each person's listening experience (and also the relative FR to that specific user). Two iems that have the same FR on a test rig...

Here's the new hiby case for the R3-II. This is the navy blue one.

Of course it can. Just turn on Roon Remote app, and make sure Private mode isnt checked in the settings, and then you can control it from any Roon app.

The EA1000 is actually my next review coincidentally.... And I do prefer Storm much more than the EA1000, which isn't too bad of an IEM actually.

The transaction was smooth and painless. Great buyer and no problems!

I havent tried the DX260, but the DX240 with Amp8MK2 SE was fantastic. I now use the M15S but its quite a bit bigger. I also have the tiny Hiby R3-II which is palm-sized and sounds great with some MSEB adjustments (software tuning). The Lotoo PAW 6000 is one of my favorite pocketable DAPs. I...

Hey no problem. We've all had our bad days and just need to move on. I also understand my review was shorter than normal too and I'll likely follow up with a future review after spending a few more months with the amp. I love this thing! It pairs so well with my IEMs, but I will definitely need...

I would definitely put it on the warmer side, but I have not tried the Woo Mini. The only Woo I've owned is the WA7 Fireflies. Because the PB5 has a bass boost (measurable!!), and to me, it sounds more vocal forward and holographic, I put this amp on the more warmer side, but it does not lose...

I saw one of my fav bands, AIR, announce a Moon Safari tour, and it got me re-listening to them on Roon. And then their "radio" started after that and I was listening to all these old trip hop tracks I hadnt heard in forever (stuff like Massive Attack, Portishead, Moorcheeba, Sneaker Pimps...

I went all out on this one and spent big bucks on this --- $22.50 USD during the last aliexpress sale. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mr2TpWm It does indeed look like it matches the colors and styling of the Storm very closely, and it also feels good in hand. I only just got it a day or two ago...

Yea the iFi Go Pods are the only TWS-Adapters that I have tried that have nearly enough power to get the Storm loud, let alone to its full potential. For Bluetooth in general, you are going to be limiting the fidelity of the source material too, so you will definitely want to use LDAC or one of...

Sorry to hear about your family loss. Hope you and your boy take care and enjoy the music.

Yes, i actually did cover it: Sound Signature: It's not just a bass quantity boost though. The amplifier also added a more 3D holographic space and with a touch of additional upper treble air. Bassier IEMs/Headphones: Adding this extra layer of bass and imaging may not work with all headphones...

I wrote ONE setence on the 4.4 connectors being too big and one paragraph about the charging. I think its worthwhile to mention to people interested in the product about some downsides and not* just be 100% rosy about something. I still gave the product 5/5 on HeadFi. Also interesting that you...

my cutouts look like that too. I actually didnt even notice they were that far off, but it is due to the curvature of the sides. While mine is also not a perfect fit, it does not slide out at all when I'm using, and even if I'm trying to shake it out, it still wont move. I have to push it out...

Yes, I did buy the PB5 with it. That's a good thing to add to the listing! Thanks. If I decide to sell the amp later, the buyer can be first on the list to get it.
