Hifiheadphones and final are pleased to announce that we will shortly be sending one of our earphones, the F7200 on tour for Head-fi'ers to try out and review. 
 
We're looking to arrange a mini tour within the United Kingdom. We would like five volunteers to try the F7200, write a review and then send it on to the next reviewer.
 
To apply, simply copy, paste and complete the info below in a reply in this thread. We’ll close applications in seven days time and then choose and contact the selected reviewers. I will co-ordinate these tours and will be your point of contact for any questions.

Terms:
 
• Each tour member is responsible for shipping the headphones to the next person in the program. You will be reimbursed for shipping costs after receiving a photograph of a postage receipt.
• Tour members must provide real names and addresses for tour purposes.
Tracking numbers are required for shipments between tour members.
• Standard tour listening periods will be ten days. If you think this turnaround is too quick or inconvenient, please contact me to discuss your situation. Please note due to the length of time it takes to complete a review tour and with limited stock it’s difficult to offer more than 10 days per reviewer unless otherwise discussed prior to the tour beginning. 
• Tour members should notify via Head-fi message when the headphone is received/posted.
• Tour members are asked to take good care of the headphones, packaging and accessories.
• Tour members agree to write a review of the F7200 in the Head Gear section of Head-Fi.org
• Users who do not follow these terms or do not submit a review will not be considered for further tours.

Link to a previous review:The Diamond Ultra Linear is well worth while, particularly if you need to lower the noise floor.
I have used Graham's Voyager and Solo amps for years, and consider them only bettered by my Tim Di Paravachini EAR HP-4. Even that is a matter of taste, rather than resolution.
Back to my point, I have always used Graham's PSU1, but got to wondering if that could be improved upon as the Diamond is so revealing. I found the Naim HiCap did improve on the PSU-1, and an Avondale Audio modified Naim SNAPS even more so.
Naim PSUs aren't cheap, but can be found used, and the Solo Diamond plus Naim PSU beats anything I have heard for silence and detail without any sterility to the sound. A true reference headphone setup.

I should be reviewing a SOUNDAWARE 2016M1 during October, hopefully these will tie in with that.
 
I have many IEMs to compare with, IE800, Trinity Vyrus, Westone W4R, and many more.
 
Cheers

I wanted to touch base with you all and say yes I have the review finals, initial impressions are favourable, there seemed to be a first half hour where either my ears were adjusting or the iems were adjusting or the tips weren't quite in right so it's worth perseverance.
I've not put them up against other competition but so far so good

Same here. It took me a bit to get used to the fit and the sound. The sound signature is different, but I like it.
