Audeze iSine 10 (by far IMHO) Oriveti New Primacy (supremely comfortable) iBasso IT03 LZ-A4 Mee Audio Pinnacle P1 Sony XBA-N3AP

^ Very happy about this and already ordered. Definitely need the longer ear hooks and looking forward to the new buds as well. I have had my i10s now for a bit over a week and there is nothing like these in an in-ear. Really enjoying them but questioning whether I should get the i20s, but I...

Thanks for re-posting this, I appreciate it. Haven't every eq'd anything, what is doing the eq'ing, where the filter params are loaded?

What source and equalization are you using?

Thanks Br777, I know these settings were posted for the 20s, but I find they take the edge off the iSine10s and help a bit with fatigue. Soundstage seems a bit wider and deeper as well. I am using stock large tips with earhooks. I know you don't listen to cypher as much but any other recommended...

Very interested in this amp. Where did you buy it?

  Can you describe how this changes the sound more to your liking?

I tried the Vali II first, but ended up going with Valhalla 2 because it was a bit warmer, but I was thinking I wanted over the ear phones. I have also done tube rolling that helps with that but I agree it still doesn't have that warmer/colored tube sound. It is probably good I have not heard...

Schiit Valhalla 2 also silent with Mee Audio P1, iBasso IT03 and Oriveti New Primacy, and though not drastically, sounds better than directly from my iDevice.

where do you live, audition time at Ike's, I'll bring the beer!

I don't find JVC spiral dots on penon, can you post link?

nice setup i'm sure. I would love to hear this. What is your favorite IEM with this?

Anything in this price range or up to <$450 I should be considering? Where the New Primacy and for that matter all the IEMs I have tried thus far leave me wanting is for a wider, deeper soundstage with more distance/air between instruments similar to what you get with open-back OTE headphones.

Agree with this. I can listen to the New Primacy far longer without fatigue than I can the IT03.

I am comparing the IT03 with New Primacy now. I find myself favoring the New Primacy. The mid-range is more full and so much more to my liking than the mid-range on the IT03. Bass & sub bass are very close if you get a good seal, IT03 seems to have a bit more impact but it is marginal at least...

how does the Mojo compare to the Cv5? Does the Cv5 provide the smooth tubey sound over what the Mojo offers?

Precisely. Great post! I agree with you 100%. I am still looking for that warm tubey sound myself, but without breaking the bank! V2 is better for warmer OTE cans. It is not night and day difference from driving the more sensitive IEMs from an iPhone vs the V2. I am looking for that difference...

Are you interested in portable or desktop or both? Very interested in this thread as I am looking for portable.   I currently have Schiit BitFrost DAC -> Schiit Valhalla 2 OTL. Primarily bought this setup for over-the-ear cans, but have gotten in to IEMs instead. I am finding the results vary...

Can you give us any kind of timetable/range for release of the IT04, any specifics, I am assuming a hybrid design with 1 dd driver and 3 BAs?

You may want to try some spinfits. I have tried the stock tips, Comply Foam, Sony Hybrids and Spinfits and I by far prefer the spinfits. I want to try the JVC Spiral Dots but it takes a while to get them and am so far happy with Spinfits.   I am trying the Oriveti New Primacy and am having a...

Thanks, I found it. I need to find time to go through this entire thread. Another question you may have already answered previously, what tips do you prefer so far?   Is anyone finding that guitar instrumentals sound thin, less body? Perhaps bad mastering and/or streaming at 320kbps is the...
