Well, for some time now I have the HF5 and the Fiio e7, and about 2 months ago I purchased a set of comply foam tips. I have a lot of questions begining with the following:
1) The comply's felt ultra smooth and comfortable, but the first pair that I tried lasted about 3 weeks before beginning to tear itself apart. I thoght it was because I was beeing abusing and mistreating it, so I after disposing the first pair, I took the second pair, and it lasted about 1 month because getting in the exact same condition as the other. I still have this one and I'll try posting a picture of it latter on(I'm without my camera right now).
Is this normal? that mean, it's normal to a set of foam tips only last about a month?
2) I purchased the fiio e7 to work as usb dac/amp for my laptop but I decided to try it as an amp along with my sansa fuze (L6 lod cable) and see what I could get. Beside getting a lot of looks and comments of people around me asking what alien device was that, I would like to ask this: Although I didn't sense a great overall improvement in SQ I did have the impression of a bigger soundstage. Also, is this normal? Is the soundstage dependant on the amp? The SQ didn't change much because of the low impedance of the iem?
Thanks everybody,
