This is the second time I've seen you say something to this effect, so let's discuss this at a proper place instead of hijacking another thread shall we?

So I've already learned about audio bit depth- 16bit vs 24 bits etc., and understand that 16bit audio has a quantization noise about -96 dB under peak loudness (less if dither is considered). 24 bit is around -140 dB. Considering the fact that most "quiet" room is 30dB. I really can't be...

I’m getting a new IEM with fairly low impedance at 16 ohms. My iPhone has an output impedance 4-5ohms. I’ve read that it’s best to have an output impedance 1/8 - 1/10 of the headphone impedance. Will I benefit from having some kind of resistor adaptor added?

So it seems like dynamic driver bass is generally preferred to balanced armature bass. This can be observed by hybrid IEMs generally using dynamic drivers for their low frequencies. While there are exceptions like Sony IER-Z1R where the low frequency is driven by BA transducer (and done very...

A quick search did not reveal a clear explanation. In simple language, what is distortion, harmonic distortion, and total harmonic distortion? How much THD does it take to be audible? Does it increase with increasing volume? Does it matter if I never listen past 90dB if or where the THD is...

Hi guys, I have been using the ADDIEM for about 10 years now. I love the clarity, cleanliness and analytical signature of the ADDIEM. The bass has always lacked body, although it was something I was willing to sacrifice for better detail in the mid and trebles. Most IEM's I've auditioned since...
