    Etymotic March Madness - Photo Competition

    Xbox controller + ER3XR = Gaming bliss! Might not be the best source on the market, but they're superb for zoning out from the world! Although, the left channel is starting to drop out so I need some new ones, hence trying my luck in the competition!

    Yeah, unfortunately I think it was amazon.uk that I picked these up but that was a while ago now!

    ISN Earphones impression thread. New ISN NEO 3!

    Recently discovered something unexpected with the H40s. I was looking for more isolation and managed to squeeze on some tips I use on my ER2XRs, I think they are Future Sonics Earfills small. Anyways, they did certainly improve isolation as you'd expect, but what I didn't expect was an...

    iBasso IT00 and AM05 Two very different IEMs with one purpose, to Enjoy the Music!

    Really amazed at how good these are for the money, totally blown me away! Wasn't too impressed with the stock cable, so swapped it out but it's more of a looks/comfort thing as I don't honestly hear any sound difference, didn't expect to either. Tips were a lot of trial an error, eventually...

    iBasso IT00 and AM05 Two very different IEMs with one purpose, to Enjoy the Music!

    Thanks for the advice all, really appreciate it, especially the QC comments. However, they're such good value and available via Amazon that I'd have no concerns with speedy returns. They sound like a winner right now.

    iBasso IT00 and AM05 Two very different IEMs with one purpose, to Enjoy the Music!

    Hi all - how would the IT00 be for someone who loves the H40, wants a single DD IEM for EDM/Gaming/Deep House and finds the Starfield a little forward in the mids leading to harshness? Appreciate the help!

    Penon asked me to return my fauly H40s and were very good with the return, obviously the turn around takes a while but they sent them without causing a fuss. I did have to email them directly to kick-start the process though, the RME was never answered.

    Great work on the pictures and graphs for the mod, really top stuff. I have done this on my replacement H40s, they're definitely a good amount cleaner now, while still retaining a relaxed fun signature. I wonder if the restrictive airflow was causing failures with the DD some people, myself...

    Sorry to hear that, I am still waiting for my replacement, should be on its way now but I hope these ones last longer for me because they're ideal. Definitely poor build quality from ISN, such a shame a large number of people have seen failures because the H40 is an outstanding IEM.

    IMR R2 Aten Thread

    Quick shoutout to Bob from IMR for incredible customer service - after my pair of ISN H40s failed I got tempted to pick up something else local to me so I settled for some R2 REDs. The right one was DoA, but a quick email to Bob was all it took and he sent a replacement asking me NOT to send...

    ISN Earphones impression thread. New ISN NEO 3!

    So, quick update on this, I am totally not convinced about the build quality at all! Yesterday the dynamic driver in my left IEM stopped working, it occasionally comes back to life if I tilt my head at an angle but then fails again. Potentially a loose connection, as cable swapping doesn't...

    ISN Earphones impression thread. New ISN NEO 3!

    Sure! Apart from build quality (once a week I need to reseat the MMCX connector in the left IEM as it becomes intermittent) the H40s improve on the Starfields in all areas for my listening tastes; EDM, Jazz, DnB, Syth Pop, Classical, Gaming (the H40's soundstage is excellent for gaming). The...

    ISN Earphones impression thread. New ISN NEO 3!

    Not really, but interestingly I found the best fit was with different size tips on each side, normally that isn't the case for me. I use medium Final E on the left and small Final E on the right, works really well.

    ISN Earphones impression thread. New ISN NEO 3!

    So I went ahead and purchased the H40 and a couple of things looked different to some of the other pictures: Firstly, they much more blue the other pictures, although that could be the lighting, secondly the cable looks different but it's still labeled as an S8 so I have no reason to believe...

    ISN Earphones impression thread. New ISN NEO 3!

    Does anyone in this thread have the H40 and the Starfield? I searched and the only comparison I could find was a mention that the Blessing 2 was an upgrade over the Starfield with the H40 and Blessing 2 being side-grades of each other. However, from what I understand the Starfield and Blessing 2...

    New closed-back recommendation needed, really struggling!

    Cheers for the recommendations, I actually did pick up a pair of MoonDrop Starfields, and they're way better than I would have ever expected for the money. Not convinced the stock tips and cable are great, so replacements/upgrades already on the way but so far so good. They've been very...

    New closed-back recommendation needed, really struggling!

    Thanks for all the suggestions so far, especially the above! I've also done some research on the Moondrop Starfield which sound like they might also meet my requirements, more expensive but still so cheap if I don't get on with them it's next to no money wasted. I think I'll go down this route...

    New closed-back recommendation needed, really struggling!

    Hi everyone, thanks for letting me in! OK, so I'm after some recommendations for a new pair of closed back headphones, potentially IEMs. However, I have some really narrow, you might say niche, requirements and I will try to explain them all: Price can be up to £700 I think, but I'd prefer to...
