help choosing sony xba 4ip

[azureaura]

From numerous descriptions i feel i would like the sound on offer. they also have an inline remote which is a plus for portable use. However it's that 8 ohm impedance. is this why they don't supply it with a 5 1/4" jack? how would these fair driven from a graham slee solo, with a 5 1/4"convertor plug?

i'm looking at sony xba 4ip for portable/home use and a beyerdynamic T1 for home use.

Hi azureaura the sony is a wonderful iem. I got mine on ebay sealed for £140 so its worth looking to get them for a bargain. I have an android phone and the pause and accept call and microphone works through my galaxy note 2.
The sound is detailed and has plenty of low emd.
Ive had shure ec5 cl westone um2 ue triple fi 10 monster gratitude klipsch x10i fischer audio dba 02 mk 2s. The xba4ip is what I use all the time on the go now. They work fine with any head amp don't worry.
I cannot comment on the beyerdynamic t1 s. I suspect you are looking at a really nice headphone for your solos tho. Can you get a chance to hear what they're like first?
Regards
Trev
