I have updated the INTRODUCTION POST on page 1 with the different 'audiophile' posts matching the different sections so everything is combined. I would like to thank everybody for collectively liking the intro post exactly 17 times to keep within the '2017' '17 iems' theme, very thoughtful.

 
This is great stuff man. You have taken it to another level. And the best part is, it helps readers to understand what you are talking about.
 
Oh, btw, I am going to hire a person to like your 1st post and it will bump the Likes to 18... Yep,, I'm that Evil!

Yes, let us say from 0 to 10, AK240 is 0, but sounds bad with it, Mojo is 3/4 and LPG is 6. 10 would be a cat hissing in your ear. I could still enjoy it, but music like folk with many quiet passages what difficult.



Have you tried the ifi audio iem match? Heard that it solves hiss problems


It does, and has the added benefit of increasing dynamics and punch.

I've also considered that one, untill I read thatyou will loose top end brightness/sparkle with Zeus using it :xf_eek:  


Oh wow didn't know that. Well... trade offs I guess :)

There's also always using a brighter cable to counteract that too.

Which also does make things significantly more complicated and tedious too...

And that also depends if you believe in cables too :)

Fair enough, in that case I'll add another iem and postpone the shootout to 2018.
