I am having issues with any cable staying connected to my Simgot EA500LM IEM's. Linsoul is making me jump through hoops to prove the problem exists. Video evidence. I have spent way to much time catering to their demands. All of this for a $90 IEM! It will push me over the edge if they just send...

This question has been on my mind for some time; it's a broad question but I hope we can find some easier and helpful answers for people in the search for their endgame. Is there a best value-for-money/bang-for-buck/Goldilocks-zone price range for: 1) digital audio players 2) digital to audio...

Hello! I’m looking at getting my first set of quality headphones. I’m after something that will suit a fairly eclectic taste in music, but a lot of rock, jazz and blues. budget is around $500AUD ($350USD/300EUR) but happy to go over if it’s really worth it. I’d like them to last quite some...

Let's use this thread to share information regarding Qobuz and its compatibility with different hardware/software etc...

Apologies if this has been asked before. I have been reading so much about this and have basically come full circle and still have no idea as to an answer. There may not be an answer and may be down to personal preference, but even so, I'm going to ask! I have been listening to some FLAC...

Pretty basic question, I guess. I was testing some IEMs with the original Quake (1995). It's fun for testing sound positioning. However, the sound quality in games like that is abysmal. We're talking about 8-bit audio here, 22050 khz for some. Scratchy, boomy garbage tier. My question is, can...

Bonjour everyone, I'm looking for good advices and feedback about our product (design, techno, attraction): ewolv.loma-innovation.com I'm part of a start-up located in Paris. We are creating custom-fit earphones. We have developped a new patent material which allow deformation. So we are...

Hi guys, Which do you think is the best IEM build quality under 100$? I would like to buy a very solid IEM with good solid cables and quality sound that will last me for a good time. I live far away from Amazon warranty so if the a friend of mine brings me one from the US which results...

Hi, I'm wondering if there are any decent on-ear headphones for less than 100 bucks. Loking for new gear, cause my old JBLs (j55and if I'm not mistaken) have broken. You'd probably call those garbage and so do I, but buying them I didn't do much research and went for the brand/friend's...

I bought the headphones used 1 year ago and was pleasant since then. Yesterday they were working fine as usually. Today when I put them on, no sound is coming from the right side. Tried to switch cables and changed source, still no sound from the right. The right driver is obviously dead. Could...

ME FIRST

I didn't want to simply say CHINESE IEM's because i reallly don't know where they are being manufactured. These are just some IEM's i found on Aliexpress.com I recently saw someone selling this: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/nicehck-dzx-1-8-8-ba-1-dd.880230/ and thought, " I've seen this...

Having had it brought to my attention that Monoprice is clearing out the m560's for $119 open box (free shipping, no tax), I decided that for under $200 cans, this is the game changer. Let alone being planar and on the $100 side of the category...

Hi, So, i have a ps4, xbox, pc, and want to have the sound of these 3 all into one output, if possible i would have another input to connect a bluetooth receiver, but, first question, is this a great ideia in terms of audio quality? Because that's the most important thing for me, if any of this...

What are some of the best headphones under $100 for listening to lossless quality music of all genres? Ones that reproduce the most natural sound the way it's supposed to sound while not causing fatigue over time. In person listening is the best determination I know, but that is not an option...

Just had this thought go through my head today: it'd sure be nice if you could buy a portable music player (or have software on your computer, or a smartphone app) with an AI program that could take crappy-sounding MP3s, analyze the music data, make "smart" guesses about what sonic data is...

I have this old audio extension cable that I bought from ebay a long time ago. It seems to work fine with earphone connectors that have two bands (the circular rings). With three rings (earphones with mic have these), it has a hard time finding a proper connection, audio keeps cutting out. So, I...

I want something that will last longer than Sennheiser HD202 and and has pretty good sound. I hate headphones with a lot of bass too me it sounds very muddled.

I bought them 3 days ago and used them all day long because I thought its finally time to upgrade form my 60$ Turtle Beach headset. But now after listening, everytime I switch to my turtle beach I find them better. They sound more clear in highs and vocals. Vocals also seem to be more present...

Hi everyone. I am currently a student looking into buying a good pair of headphones which I can use for both music (mostly EDM) and gaming. My budget for headphones is around £170-200 so not the largest amount when it comes to audiophile/professional grade headphones I believe, but hopefully...

Greetings! I just want to listen mp3 (128 kbps to 320 kbps) via my android phone. So 70-80 $ bluetooth headphone (on/over the ear) can give same quality like ( 20$ chip wire headphone) ? My current headphone (happy with quality)...

Can anyone help me out with this question? I've looked all over for it and can't find anything. Is there a "Moore's law" for headphones? Meaning, how quickly does headphone technology/quality improve each year? Are $100 headphones today on par with $200 headphones from 5 years ago? Everytime I...

Well, I have been a Hifiman loyalist for close to ten years but I think I am done. My RE-252s were great, my favorite IEMs, and lasted 6 years. Two years ago they broke and I replaced them with RE-600s. Well, I have had to get warranty replacements for the RE-600s twice due to cabling issues and...
