Hello all Im looking for a DAP that has the ability to stream at least tidal but preferably spotify too. What are the main recommendations? Ideally want to spend $400 or less The fiio x5iii appears to have firmware issues and the x7 is out of budget. As is the astell and kern offerings. Id...

Hi guys I'm looking for a new daily IEM, however there is a bit of a caveat. Basically I have an issue with tips and fit. Silicones of any size or variety just dont seal well and foams, whilst they do seal well get uncomfortable. One exception is triple flange tips however they start to itch...

MEE do a decent one.

Good choice. They are a great listen for the money

Its certainly pretty balanced. Did you tip roll on the comet?

AKG K702's (open) are around £109 (a lot more expensive in the US for some reason) AKG k550 mk3's (closed) Not sure on a balanced IEM for under £100, maybe etymotic hf5? its around £100 I believe Hope this helps

Theres some Chi-Fi IEM's for around that budget, check out the thread. The MEMT X5 is extremely small and sounds decent for its size/price point. (Very good bass)

Campfire Audio Comets, top end of the budget but really good for the money. Check them out

I havent heard the Periodic Audio Be but for that budget definitely look at the campfire audio orions and comets. Both single BAs at £349 and £210 respectively. Ive tried both and own the comets and they are excellent. Decent isolation, surprisingly good bass for a single BA and good detail...

AKG K550?

Im after a new set of headphones. Mainly like a v shaped sig with decent bass emphasis (not too muddy though). Open or closed no preference as will be for desktop use. There maybe gaming to consider too. Amp i currently have is a fiio a3 but looking at either a schiit magni or littledot mk2...

Ok so after exactly a month to the day, my tennmak pro's have failed on one side. Definitely not the cable as I've tried multiple different ones...

How about Theia, if it hasn't been mentioned before! Thanks Empire Ears

T400s fit fine

Maybe try them down? And some more tip rolling?

I use the included triple flanges and get a good fit / isolation. Are you using them overear or down? I find down isn't a good for me.

I actually was looking at the new primacy, but went for the p1 instead. Already have a few (tennmak. Memt etc). Looking at the urbanfun HiFi as I don't have a hybrid, and maybe a sub $50 BA Iem as I don't own one! (Brainwavz b100 possibly)

I'm Interested!

Haha. Not sure why but I'm still looking at various chi fi iems, and what to get next.

I'm struggling after listening to the p1s for a while going back to other iems!!

Any recommendations for something akin to the tennmak piano, just a bit less bass and maybe more mid emphasis? (Keep the highs), similar budget. Urbanfuns?

  Let us know how you get on!   Could probably sell the k550's, I never ever use them now due to my obsession with IEM's! 

  I have my eyes set on the Urbanfuns this month, but I'm too easily swayed!!   Also, any update on these supposed 'Mad Piano's' yet? 

  I have the k550 (mk1, not sure what the mk2 adds), and I like them. They are very comfy (albeit warm ears after a long session). You mentioned somewhere about portability, and the k550s are certainly not very portable, they have large cups and a crazy long cable.    If your in the UK you...

There's a few reviews on this site, i haven't heard them however so can't comment!
