Sounds like that is exactly what I’m looking for. Thanks!

What is that exactly? Photos?

Perhaps the original cable is defective. I'd go to the dealer and try it with a new (or used) original cable. It's much easier to replace the cable than to send in the IEMs for repairs. If their cable also exhibits the same issue then you can either accept that you have to stick with the...

interesting. i have my baroque ordered and on the way. i normally use the stock foam tips (large) for the best fit and seal, but they still don’t sit perfectly. i need to try the spacer — anyone have a link to the rubber ring on amazon? i cannot find it locally. i would like to try the IE pro...

Thank you for sharing! I have been waiting for any feedback on the new custom tips, and this is the first I have read. Any feedback on comfort — especially with long playing sessions? Does it have a screen and foam insert to prevent dirt & dust from getting in?

If it was truly broken to begin with, I would have the whole unit replaced. My concern would be that was broken due to being subjected to excessive forces — perhaps being dropped? It it broke the grill, it may have also caused more damage that will o my become apparent over time. On the other...

If I was in Germany, I would try this immediately! It's interesting that the price of the custom tips are included in the price of the IE900 -- I wonder if those of us who purchased the IE900 before April 17 are eligible for any special consideration. If the results are good and the sound is...

I was referring to the other app that had been suggested which seems to include calibration/compensation for the source and headphones. https://cdn.head-fi.org/a/11988162.jpg

I assume this is not available for iOS?

Any details you can share? How are they expected to be different from the stock cables?

Just confirming, are the IE Pro tips foam or silicone? From the stock tips, the foam fits and sounds best for me. Are there different models of the Pro from Sennheiser for different IEMs?

Are you referring to how the cable sounds or how it looks/feels?

@Shanling why would Source selection require a knob? It seems like most users would not change the source that often to warrant making the selection so prominent. I would also be concerned of accidentally changing the source.

I’d be interested in feedback on how it sounds wired directly via usb to an iPhone playing hi-res through Roon Arc vs using a high quality portable DAC/amp (say in $500-$700 range) attached to iPhone w/ Arc. I’m sure it isn’t a fair comparison given the price gap, but how audible is the...

I recommend searching through this thread as many have posted the cables they switched to any why they liked them. Admittedly, it would be great if someone could summarize all the compatible options — as there don’t seem to be that many — along with a description of impact on sound...

I’d love to try that but I can never get the stock foam tips to stay in the outer position. Sennheiser should have included rubber spacers.

So the dealer was kind enough to allow me to demo the Naim Atom HE at home, along with the Stellia. It confirmed my initial observations — it think it is a great match with the IE900 (for me). I’ve only tried the IE900 with the FiiO Q5s, the Mytek Brooklyn, and now the HE. The HE was the best by...

Have you had a chance to try to combo of HE and IE900? What full size are you using with the HE btw?

Absolutely! It was a failure in multi-tasking. 🙂

Let me know what you think.

I would love to get more time alone with the HE and IE900 to explore further and in more depth. I might ask about a home demo

I had a chance to listen to my IE900 powered by the Naim Atom HE (playing Qobuz) at a dealer yesterday. I normally listen through a Fiio Q5s sourced via Roon with Qobuz (either though microRendu or Mac/iPhone/iPad). The HE by comparison brought out a lot more warmth and substance to the bass and...

My IE900 are still on their way to me, so I am not an authority. However, the general feedback in this forum about them suggests that what you are hearing is atypical. But there are a number of possible causes: They could be a defective set -- although I would think that has a very low...

Since your description of the sound signature does not seem to match most people’s feedback, I’d suggest trying them with a better, more powerful DAC/AMP before you decide to sell them. Also, make sure you have a good ear fit/seal.
