which website to you recommend to buy and download hi-def EDM albums?

i can recommend you some more quality prog house albums like this , but where you can buy them , i am not sure - best option is to either google the title with flac in it or check discogs

EE does (or rather in an earlier incarnation did) hearing aids. I found both my Zeus and the Phantom I sold (both uni) very comfortable. Can't speak to the customs.

Don't know if the shells have improved since the earwerkz days but I would struggle with the fit with those on my right side :frowning2:

Current universals are not bad. Better than say noble and 64audio for me.

But I find the best uni shell design was Zeus era. Superb fit and size for me

My Phantom's were spot on from box to ear. I was soooo worried, but it worked out great.

Yes, Dean was telling me all about his start in hearing aids. Very cool to say the least and it answered a few questions on how he's able to do proprietary drivers when he wants to.

I found the Phantom a slightly better fit than the Zeus, but the Zeus has a lot more drivers.

Not sure if you guys have used it yet but the iFi IEMatch is actually pretty legit and cleans up the sound (better separation) and improves the range (sub-bass and upper treble become more present).

I was very surprised with it when I tested it. I used high sensitivity mode + stock Ares II cable + Cayin N5ii + Bravado. Definitely keeping it.

Going to let the owner of the local retail store I go to and let him demo it with his Legend X and see what he thinks.

Taking a little break from writing my IMR-R1 review and enjoying some South Florida sun and rum with my Legend X

I neither loved nor hated it with my Zeus. Didn't like it with the Phantom. It's sitting in its box on my desk.

Yeah I kinda don't want anything between my source and IEM. I would rather find the right source which wouldn't hiss. I now have zero sensitive IEMs, although I do miss the Zeus XIV.
