Rank the IEM's you've heard
Andromeda > Jupiter =? iSine10 > ER4S > KZ ZS5 > Shure E4c >>> UE triplefi 10 Andromedas have expanded my mind in terms of what IEMs are capable of, which is perhaps a bad thing, as now I'm curious about the rest of the TOTL world out there. iSines seem to have a huge amount of potential, but...- uoods

Value of sound of loudspeakers versus CIEMs
Like others have already said, it's an apples to oranges comparison. IEMs, for me and many others, give the best compromise for listening while out and about. Personally I've gotten so used to them that I enjoy them at home as well, alongside my full-sized open cans. It just depends on my mood...- uoods

Beyerdynamic DT 880 with Fiio A5 : Having second thoughts...
My nuforce DAC has enough power to drive my 880 250ohms without additional amping, just to throw another perspective in. Some of the others in the Beyer line (770 probably) might be a better fit for you if you want more impactful bass. Welcome to the never ending journey to find your personal...- uoods

Which headphones do you use for PC gaming?
Love my DT880s but been trying out different combinations for better footstep placement recently. IEMs work great for hearing max-distance sounds but not isolating directionality. What's everyone's favorites for cs:go and pubg and the like?- uoods

Are people using sound cards or dac's? What is the general opinion?
Plenty of good internal DACs these days, but I figure a good DAC/amp stack will be pluggable to whatever setup I end up building next.- uoods

Rate The Last Movie You Watched
Thor Ragnarok - 7/10: Surprisingly enjoyable, coming from someone who typically avoids all action movies. Didn't take itself seriously at all. Shades of Fifth Element absurdity during the middle part of the movie, finishing with typical modern comic-hero action movie fights at the end.- uoods

Shure Announces Lightning Terminated IEM Cable @ CES 2017
Still confused about these, shouldn't the DAC be in the phone rather than the cable? Aren't the phones already using high quality dacs, previously for jacks as well, but still for the built in speakers?- uoods

crinacle's IEM FR measurement database
Thanks for doing all these measurements and also having your opinions separately. I wish more people did this, as you can compare two reviewers' measurements and then their subjective opinions and have some way to normalize the two! Just getting into measurements myself, any opinions of the...- uoods

List your favorite IEMS under $500
Etymotic ER4P/S, the classics. Haven't heard the modern versions but they are supposedly unchanged. Shure E4c haven't tried many dynamics tbh so I'm sure there are better modern dynamics these days, but these have served me well for a long time.- uoods

If you still love Etymotic ER4, this is the thread for you...
I'm so glad to be returning to head-fi after a long absence to see this thread! My ER4P/S are still among my favorites after 15+ years. I'm pondering new cables after all this time, as the microphonics keep me from using these anywhere but at home, sitting still. Found these on aliexpress, any...- uoods
