I've read through the last month or so of posts and just wanted to ask (since I'm getting a phone without a headphone jack for the first time) - is this my best choice below $50 or so, for listening only to IEMs which my Samsung S10e powers just fine...

Haven't written any reviews but have benefitted immensely from the knowledge in this place, and would be happy to write a review if I'm chosen. Thanks for the giveaway!

Would love to try out this new amp for my portable setup! Looks great!

Hmm, I'm not trying to get something very bass-heavy.  Others on the forum have described them as relatively neutral with a bass that's slightly boosted, is that not the way you hear them at all?   Does anyone have experience with the MEElectronics Air-Fi Matrix2 AF62 bluetooth headphones...

Thanks for all the replies.  Any thoughts on the Pro 80s?

Could you just give me a quick overview of how they differ? From what I've read they're both considered pretty neutral phones with a large soundstage for a closed back headphone. Is that not correct?

I see. Would you say its sound signature is different also, or is it basically a straight upgrade?

What would you say the HP150 improves on over the HM5?

Hi everyone,   I've been a Head-Fi member for quite a while, and all my travels so far have been in the land of IEMs. Now that I'm happy with my setup and think I have a good idea of the sound signature I like, I'd like to try to get a good pair of headphones, but as I'll still be mainly using...

Very much interested in this!  Thanks!

Quote: I've never heard the ASG-1.2, but the bass on my AS-2 prototype is anything but muddy and overpowering - and I really don't like noticeably boosted bass. If you're comfortable with the amount of bass produced by the GR07 you should be happy with the AS-2. The adjustable bass port...

Quote:   I don't think I can say anything more about the soundstage/imaging than I have already.   Quote:   Yes, I think the drums all sound powerful (but not overbearing) and very clean - in fact, I think the GR07 is ever so slightly softer in the drum impact, which is high...

Quote: I'm auditioning the universal demo of the AS-2s - I don't believe there will be different custom AS-2 versions, but Dale can comment on that.   I feel they sound very natural and don't color the music much - if you're asking whether they're analytical IEMs I don't think I'd say...

Quote: Yes, I do mean the rest of the spectrum - at my comfortable listening volume bass was too overbearing on those, and even greater in quantity on the UM3X. I feel like the AS-2 has a balance very similar to the GR07s.   Still can't say for sure about the layering aspect, but I do...

Quote: I do think that cymbals sound very natural on these - have the proper weight, a bit more than the GR07 in comparison I feel. Every bit of percussion sounds very defined and powerful - it's a bit hard to describe, but I put it down to the great sub-bass and separation. It is not...

Quote: I'm not sure how to properly describe mids - I will say I find nothing lacking in the AS-2s' mids, and I think they're basically perfectly placed in the spectrum - I had never thought the GR07s' mids to be recessed, but they're undoubtedly farther back than the AS-2s'. I haven't...

Hi all,   I'm currently auditioning a demo unit of the AS-2s - just thought I'd share some thoughts. I don't have the depth of experience that members like ericp10 and FlySweep have, so I'd think their opinions should carry more weight. Anyways, here's a short comparison of the AS-2s vs. my...

    I should have serial #0001 of the ASG-2 because it would finally end my Head-Fi journey into IEMs, which started with a Creative EP-630, moved to a triple-driver CIEM, and has proceeded through most of the top tier universals.  If I could have a comfortable, isolating IEM that had bass...
