    IEMs - Where to start?

    Hello! I would personally start to look for an IEM that fits your budget and listening preferences and buy them. Technical details like driver technologies, impedance, driver count and crossovers should be less important to you than sound signature, tonality, isolation and fit(!). So reading...

    Budget DAP for sensitive IEMs

    So this is what happened: The Q1 wasn't available at my favourite shop anymore and the struggle began from the beginning. I thought abought buying the Fiio M7 as it got a decent discount, but i did not want to buy the M6 in first place because it was too expensive. This hobby definitely is a...

    Budget DAP for sensitive IEMs

    The X10 overall seems to be a downgrade to the X9, except the more powerful amp. After reading the Shanling Q1 review from headphonics i tend more towards the Q1. It seems to have less hiss with sensitive IEMs than the Fiio M6 and is about 20 EUR cheaper. Thank you all for your help so far! I...

    Budget DAP for sensitive IEMs

    If you don't need EQ and don't use high sensitive (multi BA) IEMs i can fully recommend Ziku X9. It is sturdy built, has stunning sound quality and great battery life. Maybe it is not powerful enough for Headphones with low sensitivity and/or high resistance (i still cry about my Yescool S5). M3...

    Budget DAP for sensitive IEMs

    Thanks for your input! The M6 is my favourite right now, even if it is slightly above my budget. Some time ago i bought a music app for my Android phone - Player Pro. Can i check if it works with the M6 somehow? Anyway i think the stock player will be sufficient for me but using Player Pro...

    Budget DAP for sensitive IEMs

    I dropped the M3 Pro for the lack of custom EQ settings. I considered buying a smartphone DAC before. It has the downside of carrying 2 devices and i am afraid that the cable might go off while walking (i don`t trust these mini usb-c connectors). Battery life would be no problem as my Umidigi...

    Budget DAP for sensitive IEMs

    Thanks, the Shanling Q1 looks promising. It has some features (like 2-way bt) i don`t need which seem to push the price. Maybe i can find a more budget-friendly alternative.

    Budget DAP for sensitive IEMs

    Hello Guys, 2 years ago i found my perfect DAP with the Yescool S5. I got it for around 40 USD at AE. It is very powerful, has a customizable 7-band EQ and no hiss with high sensitive, multi-BA IEMs. Unfortunately the wheel used to flip through the playlist + volume control broke and i need to...

    TRN impressions thread

    Do you know details about the sound signature of the H2, is it another V-shaped IEM? I am looking for a more L-shaped, warm sounding signature. For example i like Pai Audio MR2, KZ ATE or ZS7 with EQ on the upper mids/lower treble.

    TRN impressions thread

    I did the same and the X6 really shines after EQ-ing some bass extension. Detail and imaging are great for the 42 Euro I have paid.

    Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread

    Can someone compare new Magaosi MGS-401 to the Audbos P4 or maybe have an idea of similiarities and differences?

    I'd consider buying the P4 again. I am still amazed by the performance.

    New Member Introductions thread

    Hello Head-Fiers! I finally managed to create an account as this forum has helped me a lot in past time. I love music and all the ways to listen to it, especially with IEMs. About 2 years ago i started collecting head- & earphones and it soon became a kind of addiction to find the best suitable...
