Hey guys, This is my first post, so I hope everything works out. Anyways, as the title states Im looking for an IEM mainly for classical music. Ive been looking at the Moondrop Variations as they seem like an overall good choice for the budget and at the IE600 with a discount. Im not even sure...

My utmost loving gears, the Bakoon Products cap1003(mini portable headphone/pre amp)

Hello! I want to hear what people think are good pieces of gear (IEMs and headphones alike) specifically for classical music. It's made a resurgence in my life, and I've been enjoying the instruments used in classical music a ton, and would like to know what gear people think would maximize the...

Full shot of my Tue. Listening time on dawn

I am in the market for a closed-back headphone under $1,000. I listen to classical (mainly symphonies) and jazz 90% of the time. My source is Apple Music HiFi (24/96 mostly) through my iPhone with the Audioquest Dragonfly Red DAC/Amp. Currently, I'm looking at the DCA Aeon Noire and...

Hi, my name is Mat, I’m new here and this is my first (probably way too long) post — amazing forum, I’ve already spent way too much time here in the past couple of weeks reading :D I hope you guys can help me with some thoughts. My question - short version: I’m looking for a mid-centric...

Hi everyone. I need some suggestion for my first pair of iem. I’ll use it mainly commuting and studying in study hall so I need decent noise isolation. The source will be Samsung galaxy s9 or my laptop. I mostly listen to classical and rock music but also some jazz and metal. Budget: I’d like...

I need an IEM for classical music (large symphonic works), and I wanted to know how the 535s would work in this situation? These will be for on the go listening with my A&K Kann, which is loaded with 24/192 FLAC and DSD files. I'm not interested in the ER4s, because as a low brass player, I like...

My first headphone purchase was a couple years ago, with the Beyerdynamic DT 770 32 ohm. I've enjoyed it a lot, but I'm looking to get something open-back now (I've read they're even better for sound reproduction). I'm not entirely sure how to describe the sound of my DT 770s, but they're miles...

I am looking to buy a new set of IEMs. Budget - at most £300, but fairly flexible here. Happy to spend less! Source/Amp - various laptops and iPhone XS. No amp and I would prefer keeping it that way. How the gear will be used - mainly office, so passive noise isolation is quite appreciated...

What would be the best closed back for a digital piano(Kawai ES 4) for under $500? I've searched everywhere but I couldn't really find any clear consensus. I've found the DT 1770 and Shure 1840 to be worthy of consideration. I heard the Focal Elegia should be considered if I can stretch my...

Hi All, I'm looking to improve on my cans - I listen to mostly classical music. I have the Schiit stack and HD650s (which I like a lot but sense could be improved upon). Clarity, soundstage, imaging are important. Lifelikeness. I also don't like it too hot in the treble (teenage ear damage -...

Hello all! I'm hoping to get some help/advice on what headphones to buy. I am currently looking at B&O Play H2 On-Ear, 1More Triple Driver and Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7GM. I can get the first two from Amazon for less than £100 which is ideal as far as budget is concerned but would consider...

Hi all, I'm looking for a closed back headphone with a relatively big soundstage and neutral+analytical, smooth mids and a little bit of sparkle on the treble as well. I primarily listen to orchestral pieces as well as jazz, indie rock and acoustic/folk pieces. Bass doesn't matter too much to...

Last year I did a shootout of bang-for-the-buck headphones using classical music (which is the vast majority of what I listen to). Since then I've acquired a number of mid-level headphones that are generally well regarded for classical, so I thought I would update the shootout with these new...

Hi everybody, Being new to the subject, never having had the oportunity to try a DAP (never even saw one in a shop), I'm trying to learn as much as I can. I'd like to have a portable gadget that allowed me a good listening experience. I'd listen to multiple genre but would like the DAP to be...

Hey guys, newbie here. I've been a lurker for about a week now and it seems that the best earbuds for under $150 are the 1More Triple Drivers, however I've also read people saying that while they're insane value for money, it's been designed for more bassy, punchy music rather than classical...

Hello everyone! New member to Head-Fi but have been a longtime guest benefiting from the plethora of information available here. I’m now at the point where I’m thinking of a (serious to me) purchase, and want to hear input from those that have experience with some TOTL cans that could be used...

I'm looking for a headphone that's very good for classical music (neutral + big sound stage + clarity). My current setup includes a HD598 and an FX-Audio X-6 DAC and amp. Myself, being a cheap student, am struggling to justify spending the amount needed for the HD600 or the 650's (that's food...

Finally got some IEMs and am finally starting to get what all the fuss is about. What IEMs would go best with natural, acoustic, music? For kicks, let's keep it under $200. Closer to $100 would be good. Perhaps an IEM/Amp combo? I like Jazz (Bill Evans, Chet Baker, Miles Davis). I listen from...

So since the tread about this subject is closed I opened this one..   Can anyone please comment on this cd box, I have it for years now but never listened to it for some odd reason
