I've always loved high quality sound.  From $8000 car stereo systems when I was in my early 20s to my $7000 surround system.  Sound/Music has always been important to me.  I know that they make $40k, even $100k surround systems, but my wife would leave me if I spent that much. My headphone...

Hi guys! So, umm, how much of an advantage in sound quality does the jh 3a have over the jh16? Also, i cant imagine walking around with my iphone connected to this huge amp in my pocket lol. So, which would u choose if your source was an iphone and portability is huge? I dont mind walking around...

I have an iPhone 5 , I use for travel heir 4ai and jh16 Both sound horrible on the iphone 5 On other amps/ dacs they sound great I'm not sure why I just purchased an dap x All sounds fantastic with it. Ps one last item I also,own a tg334 and that sounds good on the iphone 5 Of course it's...

Im currently looking for an IEM primarily for rock and metal. I currently own the sennheiser IE60, but I've been having some problems with it. First, its isolation is really bad, and isolation is one of the main reasons Im getting an IEM. Second, I recently purchased the ultrasone signature pro...

Hi everyone   Right now, I have owned a pair of D7k for 2 years already. So, I want to try a CIEM that have the similar sound with D7k so that I can carry around when I'm traveling. Carrying a huge fullsize headphone on the neck is very painful and uncomfortable.   I wonder if anyone can...

Greetings!   is therr any ways to buy JH PRO 16 in TORONTO CANADA?   thanks!

Hi,   For how much can I sell my jh16?   thanks,

Is there anywhere to demo these bad boys?   Very happy with my 4.As, they're the gateway drug that put me on the path to wallet destruction.   Thanks.

I think I'm ready to dive into the world of customs! This is my first custom IEM (coming from universals) so I'm hoping to be surprised. Price limit is $2000, because I don't have that much money to spend, and I profit by selling TF2 unusual hats. Here's a little bit more about my usage and the...

Hi all,   I've been away from my fullsize rig for a couple of years now. While the JH16 is a great portable companion during that time, I just miss the sound of the cans. After digging the HD650 out of storage and cleaning it up, I realized I misplaced the Singlepower PPX3 Slam. And I have no...

Hey guys, I am new to head fi, and this i my first thread. I own an Ultrasone Pro 900, Audio Technica M150, and Klipsh Image S4. Right now I have saved quite a bit of money and know that I'm willing to take a giant step into higher end products all the way to $2000. I'm looking for a portable...

Perhaps you've seen my other threads, quick recap: Have had UE TF10 for 3-4 years, wanted something with more bass, but the same or better mids/highs.   Tried 5EB, mids/high completely inferior to TF10, realized that I don't want to sacrafice mids/highs for bass.  Thought about getting...

I did not see a Recomendations thread, so I started this one. My story:   Used Etymotics ER6 and then HF5 for years...really love their sound, except that I find the bass lacking.   So when the cord on my HF5 starts fraying, what do I do?   I buy the Future Sonics Atrio MG7, because...

Hey guys,   It's this time of the year again when I would love to trade my In-Ears for some nice warm full-sized headphones. I never had any so I really don't know what to look for. First I really like the sound signature of my JH-16 Pros especially the low end. The full-sized cans are...

I'm tempted to get a new pair with the new technology.  Has anyone upgraded?  What did you think? 

This is not a technical review but more of a generalization.   JH13: PRO:  Insane speed, detail retrieval and instrument separation.  CON: While it has great lower bass extension, it is missing mid-bass so the presentation seems a bit "off".  While no siblance, the detail is so intense it...

ok so currently running some pro 900s. Whats out these days thats considered an obvious upgrade for the genre of vocal trance? pretend no budget

Hello people of head fi I'm the proud owner of the ie80s however as my dad has found love for them I am interested in looking at new possibilities and maybe going down the custom route for a new pair of in ears. I use my iphone 5 64gb for music all the time without any amp and my music taste is...

Been on this journey 10 years now and have enjoyed the anticipation of every purchase.  The waiting, the opening of the product, the first listen, the break-in....I've loved every minute.   But as much as I have enjoyed so many IEM's,    I have been able to poke a fault at everyone of them...

I have JH 16 for almost a year now.  I am running into some problems and was wondering what the best way to fix it.  First the right ear phone have a slight pain when I put it in.  After a month the pains goes away and fit comfortably and after a year now it seem to be loose and I can't get a...

Hello to all mates out there,   Currently i am holding on to my UM3X RC with Twag v2. I'm thinking of upgrading to other iems, Considered Heir4a, 8a, Jh11, 16 PRO, W4R.   Im very attached to the reference sounding of Um3x hoping to upgrade to similar signature our there.   Any advice...

Hi,   Have anyone try to compare the sound of VE stage 2 with VE stage 3 before ? I have been try it both yesterday. Why I feel like stage 2 than stage 3 ? It's more balance than stage 3.   So, I would like to know any idea or any comment from anyone that have been try to compare both...

This is one of the most useful questions imo. I'll start.   DBA-02: Sub-bass roll off   FXT90: Too much mid-bass    FXD80: Recessed mids   GR07 mkII: Slight treble roll off     Also does anyone have any iems they consider to have no flaws? I've never heard one.

I know there are a number of threads around about this topic, but I have a specific question.   I'm very close to pulling the trigger on my first custom IEM purchase and I've narrowed the selection down to the following options I think:   UM Miracle JH13 JH16 Heir 8.A   I love...

Hi everyone   I already owned a JH16 and s shure 530x6. But,Recently, I was impressed by the reviews of the A8, merlin and miracle, so I'm currently saving money to buy 1 of these 3 in this december.   I prefer a warm sound signature with bass enhanced, a neutral mid like JH16 because I...
