hello everyone, its been a while since i have been here due to a few medical issues, sad to say these issues have also altered my listening posture, to begin, i run an headroom ultra desktop amp, with the grado rs1i, complimented with the 15' big red headphone extension, and i use the kimber 15' usb cable from my comp to the desk top amp, all of these will soon be on this forum for sale as a package. because of my ailments i can no longer sit for extended periods of time, i bought through these forums a set of westone iem's to send to my son in iraq i loved them so much i almost did not send them, now he listens to music in a way he cant describe since he is used to apple bud's, so my plan to continue my headphone obsession is to sell my existing rig, and move to a more portable rig, one that will allow me close to the same level of sound bliss, but enable me to use them in my current condition. so, i m looking for a great set of iem's perhaps the westone 3, or something similar, dual or triple drivers, i have had enough experience with single driver iem's, they just dont have the accuracy as the 2-3 driver iem's, and to be honest, i ma not thrilled with the custom fit variety, i am not at a point to be able to make trips to an audioligist. so, all of you with experience in this matter please chime in and let me know your impressions, i love the grado sound, the speed and accuracy, i now look for the best, most natural, with great low end, i have been reading many reviews, but i always come back here to get the real experts advice. also once i sell my rig, and begin buying the new rig i am considering buying the hifiman's 801 as my media player, for the ease and portability. please let me know your opinions, it has been at least 3 months now without being able to relax and enjoy. thanks in advance for all the input.
