Yea, something like Xelentos adapter or FiiO LC-BT1 but high end. Xelentos are outdated and FiiO is nothing special for.. so called - audiophiles
Well, I use my qudelix 5k for that. It is not the same, but it has high audio quality, LDAC, and maybe the best portable EQ ever.
If you can find a short MMCX cable, it's done.

DMS' take:


Also, there's an interview with Sennheiser's audiophile product manager coming soon on his main channel.

I thought, I see The Headphone Show logo and this guy's telling DMS. DMS joined the headphone show team it seems.

The review is almost identical to Crinacle's and DMS did mention it in the video that they both have similar opinion of IE600 being the best dynamic driver earphone.

Anybody knows if the IE600 has the same packaging globally? So if i buy a pair from HifiGO that i wont have an all chinese box.
I really want to pull the trigger because it doesnt make a difference in terms of warranty or price for me but if i maybe dont like them enough or they are to similar to the IE900 i want to be able to sell them without the packaging looking super weird. After hearing all the reviews especially the one from DMS im super intrigued

the HYPE is real
I went to audit the IE900 and finally choose the IE600
this thing is just impressive for its price
great mids, better in vocal than the 900, neutral tonality

Is sub bass quantity much bigger than ie900?
No, this is not a bass head or dark iem, it’s definitely not bass light but I will consider it more neutral side or monitor sound compare to the ie900

But I really wish it come with a 2.5mm TRRS balance cable like they did with the IE900
Especially for Astell & Kern SP2000 user like me

I was going to order the IE600 via HiFiGo but Shenzhen is under a lockdown right now (source) and amazon.jp would end up ~$830USD shipped. I guess I can wait a bit even though it's hard. :D

It will be interesting to see if this creates a delay in my order getting shipped or not. I know there were some factories closed and people aren't allowed to leave the province. Not sure much else beyond that.

Does anyone know when the IE600 will be available to buy in the UK?
I had some supplier say only May

Did anyone compare this to UM mest mkii?
Well Mest was already more technical than ie900. But tuning wise, they should be more alike this time.

But I really wish it come with a 2.5mm TRRS balance cable like they did with the IE900
Especially for Astell & Kern SP2000 user like me
I think you can forget about it, that is going extinct now. I even gave up ordering 2.5mm cables myself i favor for iem resale.

Your best bet is getting a EA cable with ConX set.

I placed an order for the IE 600 on HiFiGo that was immediately returned to the sender by FedEx on the 11th due to the shutdown. :(
