Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

Arghh. Now that’s a problem.
Yeah that's what did me in.

But I can only really justify having two tws so these will go back or will sell one of the other two depending on factors after listening.

ordered as well. if the phone call quality is solid I'll sell the AZ80.
How are you guys ordering?

Figured I should not just come here to argue and get back into purchases.

But only shipping to the UK from the website. Any other sites stocking them?

If someone (not named clerk) wanted an upgrade on the B3, what would be the next step up?
I truly loved the Thieaudio Monarch MK3 and miss them. I'd go back but not sure I want to drop 1k... yet. They also do not fit that great on the Shure TW2. Perfect on the iFi. But not sure they'd fit your challenged ears.

Did you grab the CA? I was thinking something $500 ish.

CA? The Campfire Andromeda did fit the Shure perfectly and sounded great. Still preferred the TA MK3. Smoother edges for a nice fit.

What's the ohm on them? The B3 Impedance: 14.8Ω±15% (@1kHz) and the Shure adapters can do it. I do know I've had other IEMs in the past and the TW2 had a hard time.
From Headphonia's review: "Its impedance is generally below 30 Ohms, but depends on the frequency it is measured with. The sensitivity of Kaiser Encore is slightly higher than the K10’s. The Kaiser 10 has been considered as one of the more sensitive IEMs."
The Encore is @30 and the source is @15, means they should work together. The other way around, where the speaker is lowered ohm than the amp, this is not good. Have I got that right?

Sorry the Cambridge Audio
Sadly, due for arrival via some new Amazon delivery time frame -- 7am & 11am tomorrow. I shall hold my breath.

Also if you could do me a favor and take them on a bike ride at 18mph or so and let me know how they do with wind, I’d appreciate it!
Head out a car window could work too.

It's been so long since I went through this experiment myself, I just don't remember. I think the lower the number you could be okay. Might want to be safe and get the iFi Go Pods. You lose a few features, but they're solid adapters.
