I just received the FLC8S and they sound decent (first few hours with them). Burning them in. Thinking of a portable DAC/AMP for them and thinking between the Mojo or iDSD.

I will probably meet @Koolpep one evening so he can try my Mojo. I believe he has an iDSD, so maybe you can join us.

Would be great indeed! Let me know when and I'll come by. Would be nice to try my FLC8S vs Ralf's ASG 2.5 as well!

Ola Amigos! another Shini deal is up! 

 
HD800 + ZyCable (upgrade cable) + Zycable Xlr to 1/4 adapter for only 2500 AED, note: the adapter and upgrade cable are = 700 AED alone, but again its the shini deal 

 
 
selling because i usual, i was curious about something, finished testing, and then selling for a nice price and freebies 

 

 
 
i loved the HD800 on my Hugo TT and i even tested it on a speaker amp, the hugo tt alone wasn't falling back at all <3 only GS.X MK II and few other amps will be able to step it up from there, i will buy the HD800 and TH900 later in the future  
 
too bad i still didn't work yet, else would have kept them 

 grrrrrr. 
 
oh yeh free shipping as usual 

 
 
here are some links for both cables:

Are you from /r/dubai?

Welcome

What kind of music do you listen to and what kind of sound do you prefer?

maybe @koolpep can help you with iems.

for full sized headphones for aed 100, you can go with HD201 locally. For aed 300 Im not sure what options are available locally but you can get sony mdrv6 or creative aurvana live shipped here under that price. Read up on |joker|'s comparative threads for iems and portable headphones.

 

[AshHeadfi]

yea thats me!
 
i mainly listen to hip hop and songs that focus on vocals.anything that delivers crisp vocals would be just perfect.
 
i'll read joker's threads tomorrow (its 3am ),thanks alot i really appreciate your help.

Ok. 
 
My favorite IEM under $100 is the Chinese LZ-A2 - however it's currently being updated and not available for sale, maybe in a few weeks. It's a dual balanced armature, one dynamic driver in-ear. Come to the next meet up and you can try them....
 
Now to the IEMs available for this price:
 
Fiio EX1 for AED 299 (from @Mazen4samma3a) https://www.samma3a.com/en/reviews/fiio/ex1-headphones-201.html
 
MEE-Audio M6 Pro with exchangeable cables and great fit AED 199  https://www.samma3a.com/en/products/mee-audio/m6-pro-in-ear-monitors-headphones-193.html
 
And some really affordable ones with great sound (both around 30-35 USD = 128 AED): 
 
EDIT: removed
 
and a dynamic only drive with amazing sound:

If you want to stretch your budget a bit for 399 AED you can get the bluetooth Mee-Audio X7 Plus that I am listening to right now https://www.samma3a.com/en/products/mee-audio/x7-plus-wireless-sports-in-ear-hd-headphones-192.html or the equally nice Sennheiser Momentum in-ear for the same price.
 
Also keep your eyes peeled on Dubizzle for some used bargains...
 
Cheers!!

I recently bought the Beyerdynamic DTX 101 iE  from Massdrop based on Koolpep's recommendation for $ 37. Quite nice. Smooth sound with good bass.

+1 from me, haha. it's really good for the price.

 

[AshHeadfi]

the IE800 sound like a great deal! what about durability?
 
how much are the LZ A2?and are they worth waiting for?

So far no issues but I didn't use them daily. The LZ-A2 is really good sounding - I would think it's worth waiting. 
 
Again, next meet up April 15th come and try them - you can hear if they are worth waiting for

this website has alot of interesting headphones on paper but is there a way to actually know which ones are high quality rather than cheap knockoffs?

while were at it could you give me some suggestions on wireless ones from that site if youve had experience with any

oh and as for the meetup ill try my best id love to get to know you guys and learn more about hq audio but its midterms week :/
