I think Final Audio e500 sweeps the chifi floor down I adored it for 18 bucks. Must they be that good and in hifi standarts?!

Ps: e1000 vs e500 is mainly about your placement on the soundfield IMO.

While both perform lively with e1000 you are one step closer to the stageline between the band and crowd.

Really? I had been hearing the E500's were great for VR but not too good for music What types (Genres) are you playing on them if I might ask?

I bet those E500s are good for orchestrals, or any genre or musical styles that employ some grandiose sense of space.

Yes, large venues and Hall settings probably work since so much area is covered. For $21 I guess I'll know soon Can always give them to my son to plug into his X-Box controller or Switch

I've always thought these to be a very nice sub $100 iem, especially based on it's diminutive size

Wow those are expensive tips! Almost the same price as the iem itself

I got my Cambridge SE1s today. They remind me a bit of the Final E2000/3000, which is a good thing. A decent serving of mid-bass that I either need to get used to or EQ down a bit (this is tip dependent). Closed-in sound but with excellent timbre, smooth treble and acceptable imaging. In conclusion: grand theft audio for the $20 I spent including Prime shipping.. this will be my commuting pair for the foreseeable future.

Wow that looks wicked. where did u make the custom tips at?

And do they affect the sound signature due to their longer eartip nozzle?

The sound is no different but the comfort is. https://snugs.com/

After my recent experience with the Cambridge Audio SE1 I dug out another old single DD, the Trinity Audio Vyrus V2. It sounded pretty good. In the same drawer I found my TA Master as well. I fitted the gunmetal filters and large Starline tips. Via my Xduoo X20 and Fiio A5 amplifier they were quite impressive. Anybody else still listening to these?

That's great! We seem to have a similar taste in IEMs. The nozzles seem to be the longer type that came with the Vyrus. The Master nozzles are shorter. Do they sound very different? Of course you will need to use a different size tip as well.

Yes, I love the TA Master with the green filter. I do not love TA though so I have mixed feelings

edit... I am also using the red face plates on mine.

Gary Clark Jr can make almost anything sound good! I had the opportunity to see him (along with many many other incredible players) during the Crossroads Guitar Festival this summer in Dallas. Sadly I think it'll be the last one, but I hope it's not.

For my old ears the sound difference is negligible but I do like the extension and depth I get with the longer nozzles. Of course with the IMR R2 & R1's these TA's have been moved back even behind the Icurus and Delta's Of what I still have this puts the Vyrus v2 in the final spot and now you know my order of preference with what I own of Bob's design's
