Hi, after fews deception on IEM i'll want to test before buy, do you French fellow know a store where i can test IEM with My Comply foam Plus Tx-400 tips so no problem of hygien ?
 
Or if one of you have some IEM and can accept that i test some... budget between 100-140 € with mic for iphone, i select from this Great ljokerl review here
 
If a French headfier live in Paris and can help me to test he's IEM (with My eartips !!) i can let him test my Grado RS1

, and after IEM he proposed me to test the new import ATH-ESW11ltd Limited Edition Beautiful piece

, but i still prefer open headphone and his ATH-AD1000 give better impression, anyway this is a good place to test Audio-Technica IEM in Paris,  i tested but for now i still prefer my Clarityone, which is well placed for now on my  impression post
 
Other big brand should think about open place like that to let us test IEM.

This store is really great and sellers know their products, it's rare ^_^ I was here with a friend and we have tested almost all the OEM and IEM :)
 
The ESW11 is one of the most natural and organic headphone I have ever tried, and very beautiful, but overpriced in France :frowning2:

You can try the XBA series (I personnaly tried XBA-3 and 4) at the Sony store in Paris, 39 Avenue George V.
 
And yes, the ESW11 is incredible, especially with voices, but so expensive...

Hi fellow French head-fiers :wink:
 
I don't live in Paris anymore but often come back for a few weeks for vacation.
 
I was wondering too if there is any store where you can try different IEMS/dac/amp etc. The equivalent of Jaben. 
 
Amazon has a very good returns policy in case you don't like the product. Make sure the IEM is sold by Amazon and not a 3rd-party.
The shame award goes to Fnac, where they do not let you try IEMs, and do not accept returns. For "hygiene reasons"... ha!
