    Hello! Started off with basic apple headphones many years ago, then moved up to skullcandy ink'd and thought they were great (At the time).

    "Clinical" IEM recommendation

    (Dang, I haven't hung out here in a while and it looks like the IEM comparison threads are outdated.) My Hifiman RE-600s recently bit the dust so I guess it's time for me to move on.

    Recommendation: Trinity Audio Phantom Sabre vs. Vyrus V2

    Here's the deal. I could get a pair of Phantom Sabres for 92$ (supposed 8.5/10 condition, and less than a month used) or a brand new pair of Vyrus for 65$~. Which should I go for, is the 30$ difference worth it? any other IEMs around that price point that are better than both?
