reccomendations

Greetings, dear community. Even though Hi-Fi has been my hobby since 2009, I just discovered this webpage. I’ve always owned only full-size headphones, but because my lifestyle has changed, I need to switch to IEMs. I’m totally new to IEMs and have never owned anything more expensive than $100...

I am planning on ordering the ar5000 today, was looking for a good Dac/Amp combo that pair well with it. Planning on adding more HPs, like the Sundara or maybe the Arya stealth. i have tried tube amps before a long time ago, and i remember i loved how they sounded but i am currently in a country...

Just as the title suggests I'm looking for a mmcx cable for final E4000. please don't recommend anything expensive 200$ or less is best.

Hello Everyone, So I've been recently looking at getting a new DAP for listening to my music on the go as I'm someone who would rather have a dedicated device for doing so. I had an iPod classic a couple of years ago that I loved, but the charging port broke so I was left unable to use it. So...

pretty much title. ive been daily driving my hd58x jubilees for about a year now, but i want to have a pair of headphones that are more immersive ig. i also currently have only 200$ to spend so thats my limit. dont question it. also im willing to buy used, though not much can be found used near...

I started dabbling with making beats again. I don’t have any studio monitors, nor do I plan on getting a pair anytime soon. I need some recs for a solid pair of headphones for under $100. I’m not making music for anyone but myself, so they don’t need to be the most accurate phones ever. But I...

As the title would suggest, I'm looking for recommendations on low-profile IEMs, or generally ones with smaller housing. My outer ears are shaped a little funny, so larger IEMs (like the Moondrop Blessing 2) make my outer ears ache after not too long. My actual ear canal is normal sized, don't...

Hi all, Been a while since I've been on the forums. I have a pair of Gen1 LCD-2's and a first run Cavalli Liquid Carbon which I love thanks to the advise I got here. But now I'm looking to upgrade my old Grado SR225e's. Since headphones.com doesn't carry many Grado's and I don't believe any...

Hi all, wondering what the best amp/dac would be for the he-400i 2020 edition? Looking for around the 300 cad range. So far I've thought about the following options: Earmen tr-amp Aune x1s (10th edition or 2020 edition) something in the ifi micro line Unfortunately, I live in Canada so...

Hi guys! I'm new to audio and I tried on a pair of 660s and liked them a lot because of the "spacious" sound that came out of them. I descovered that good gear totally changes the way music sounds. Now I want a hifi setup for myself. I found a pair of 6xxs (the dropified 650s) at a really...

I currently have a FIIO K3 and recently bought a set of HD650's, I figured it's time to get a new amp. I wanted some recommendations for which ones to get, I figured you guys would help. My budget is around 200$ give or take. I would also like to know if I can use my K3 as a DAC out for my new...

Hello, everyone! I am starting to get into audio and am currently buying audio gear for my setup. For my next purchase, I am looking for an audio interface. My budget is around $200 USD. I will be running my Philips X2HR headphones, a pair of monitors, and an XLR mic. I will sometimes record...

Hi fellow headfiers, I'm not if this is the correct place to post this, if not then forgive me. I'm in Long Island NY for about two weeks. I'm in the works to get my first ciem, looking for the 'best' place to get it done in long island or the city. I have not yet decided which brand and model...

Hi, guys! I’m completely new to the audiophile world and just purchased my first pair of audiophile headphones, used on AVexchange... Sennheiser HD650’s. I purchased these spontaneously, not thinking about the fact that I’ll need an amp/dac setup to drive them optimally. I was already...

I currently have the 1more triple drivers, but they are slowly breaking, so I’m looking to upgrade slightly. I have heard that the mee Pinnacle P1, ibasso IT01, BGVP DMG and Mackie Mp-240 are all solid options. I have been leaning towards the Mackie, as they have the hybrid driver build that I...

Hi everyone! I'm new here and would love any advice or informed opinions you might have on this. I'm in the market for a new pair of headphones, primarily for producing and mixing electronic music (house and techno). I don't have monitors or a treated room, and while I'll try to check my mixes...

Hello all, first post here aside from the introduction thread but looking for purchase advice is one of the major reasons I joined after all. I currently own some UE900s and enjoy them but I felt that they lacked bass for my tastes. However I do listen to all types of music and so bass isnt...

Hello everyone! I am a new member in this forum, thank you for having me and I love what you guys are doing here! I am slowly coming into the audiophile world but by far can't call myself one. My first glimpse into this world was with Sennheiser px-100ii phones(loved them) and after these I got...

Hi guys, I'm new here so hello :) I'm from Poland so English is not my native language - I'm sorry for any silly mistakes and whatnot. And a wall of text obviously : ). Anyways, let's get right to the point my old headphones, that is Superlux HD-681, died a while ago and I'm kind of in the need...

Hi! I recently got an industrial piercing and can no longer wear my DT770s. My ears are already large so I'm looking for especially large cans so I can continue producing music. I did some rough measurements and I think cans with padding that have at minimum 8.3x11cm ear holes should be safe...

Hello, my old daily driver IEM pair (HiFiMann Re-400) died on me and I'm looking to get myself something new. I'm going to be using them as my everyday iems (so mostly for walking around town, no exercising with them or anything) and possibly for hobby-level home music production (like, amateur...

hey guys i just recently got into the audio game and i got myself a hifiman he4xx with the fiio q1mk2. later on i will get tougher to drive headphones and im hoping to start at a point that i dont have to upgrade more and spend more money you know. saving the money for the future now basically...

Hi all! I have a pair of HE400I I quite like, but they are lacking something in realism, and to sound really pleasing, I have to EQ them to flat, which is easier said than done. I’m looking for a pair of headphones that won’t be a simple sidegrade. I’m willing to get a new amplifier if need...
