Is the price of the IE 600 increasing as it did with the IE 900?

I placed an order for the IE 600 on HiFiGo that was immediately returned to the sender by FedEx on the 11th due to the shutdown. :(

Does anyone have issues with the Bluetooth playback buttons rattling when being tapped?

The MrSpeakers Aeon Flow Open are also a new option you can take a look at.

You can always return the headphone to Amazon if you don't like them.

The Magni 3 has 3W RMS per channel at 16 ohms, while the Magni 2 has 1.8W RMS per channel at 16 ohms. So it should be significantly louder and it also has pre-outs for powered monitors.

The Magni 3 is just better than the Magni 2 in every way. It was meant to be the replace for the Asgard 3.

I'd say go with the AKG 712s, they're probably more tuned to your liking. The Shures on the other hand have been mentioned to be very boring sound. Also, don't get the Schiit Magni 2 instead get the Schiit Magni 3.

They should be very similar to terms of how hard it is to drive. The Aeon Flow Closed have a 93dB efficiency while the Aeon Flow Open have a 95dB rating. So the open variant should be slightly louder. And they're lighter by 19 grams.

I already own the Aeon Flow Closed, but I still want to pull the trigger on the opened variant.

If you're specifically looking for closed headphones with good bass, I would highly recommend the V-Moda Crossfade M-100. Though you would have to stretch your budget to 200 quid. After that I would recommend the Sony MDR-1A and then the Audio-Technica ATH-M50X. I would steer away from...

Philips Fidelio X2s are on Amazon for $154 quid. Solid bass and soundstage.

Another mid-forward IEMs I would recommend are the Audiofly AF1120. I personally wouldn't buy the Shure 846s because there are far better options at the $1000 price point.

The Fiio F9 are a relatively new earphones. They have the over-ear design and use hybrid drivers with the same configuration as the 1More Triple Drivers. I'm not sure how they sound, but I think it's worth looking into for reviews.

I would recommend buying the JBL LSR305 and pairing it with the Dayton Sub-1000.

Check out the Audiofly AF160.

Status CB-1 closed headphone or OB-1 opened headphone. Take your pick, they're both good headphones for $79. If you're unwilling to spend the extra $10, the Sennheiser HD 471G is on sale on Amazon for $60. Another good option for the price.

I'd go with the AudioQuest DragonFly Black. Compact and should increase the resolution, soundstage, and bass of your source.

Yeah, that is also a good option. As long as them have them in stock.

If you plan on to get the Audeze SINE, I'd highly recommend you get them with the cipher cable. It will improve the experience and offers an EQ app, so you can tune the headphone to you liking. I personally don't like on-ear headphone, so they're usually not on my list of recommended headphones...

Massdrop x Fostex TH-x00: Audeze EL-8C: You can used those videos as a reference to how they might sound. Audeze also has some B-Stock EL-8s for sale at $339. Just email or call them. Tony@audeze.com or 714-581-8010

Go for the Hifiman HE400i, they're on sale on Amazon for $250.

Go for the Audio-gd NFB-1AMP. They're a Chinese company and are comparable to Schiit products. http://www.audio-gd.com/En%20audio-gd.htm

The Aeons are pretty much on par with their higher line up, Ether C Flow, for a much cheaper cost at $800. Compared to the LCD line the most noticeable difference is the extra imaging and resolution the Aeons have over the LCD. The aspect that LCDs might have over the Aeon would most likely be...

If big bass for EDM is your priority, then the Massdrop x Fostex TH-X00 would my top choice of headphones. I would also consider the Meze 99 Classics. If you are considering the Audeze iSines, I would probably skip the iSine 10 and go for the iSine 20 with the cipher cable for iOS.
