Edit: I am thinking about pulling the trigger on the andromeda though I would like to hear more opinions about them.
Note that the Oppo PM3 was a bit to harsh for me so I’m not sure if the andromeda will be so as well since they do have a bump on the 10k frequency.
I don’t have a portable amp/dac and I use iPhone 8.
If it’s a must with the andromeda, I can buy the FiiO q1 mark ii.
Did anyone try the andromeda without a dac/amp or with the q1?
Hey, It’s Black Friday soon and I’m planning to buy new IEMs. Right now I got the noble x (by massdrop) which have the best sound signature I have heard so far. I’m looking for something with same or really close sound signature but with better clarity, separation and sound stage (punchy bass, slight forward mids and relaxed highs). I didn’t listen to a lot of IEMs but from the headphones I have listened to I can say that-
Cascade - the vocals were really missing for me
Oppo pm3 - to polite, missing bass
Vmoda- missing the vocals
Nighthawk- the bass on the noble x sounds better
So far I thought about getting the campfire audio andromeda (don’t know if the bass will be to polite) or noble sage (which have similar sound signature to the noble x) or the k10 from massdrop (but I need to wait till the drop is active again).
I’m also not sure about hybrid because I like the noble x BA driver bass (fast and tight).
Any suggestions? (Will also prefer cheaper options if possible)
Thank you
