I have ordered the IEMatch. It's more versatile and hopefully might have other applications in the future.

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions!

Great! Also, please let us know how iEMatch works out for you once you have it! Thanks!

Will do, sure!

Okay, so got the IEMatch+ the other day, didn't have my Elegias handy, so used KZ ZSX mostly to test the thing. These get even more hum when plugged in directly into the tube amp. IEMatch set to High sensitivity makes the hum barely audible and non-existent with the Ultra setting. Can't evaluate the effect on the SQ because there's nothing to compare - with no IEMatch about half of everything I hear is the hum. Tried the same KZ-ifi combo on a SS amp just to evaluate the effect on the sound. I didn't hear any negative effect here, in fact with IEMatch I'd got a bit more clarity on a background "layer" of a track. I can't see how could be possible, so probably just my imagination, although I checked twice

So far a very positive impression, wonderful!

Not getting much use at the moment, so might have something to add when I do.

Thanks a lot for this feedback and I happy reading that iEMatch did the trick for you. Your post descirbes exactly how it should behave

Sure thing and thanks once again!

Thanks for mentioning our iEMatch, but it's not quite an impedance adapter:

https://ifi-audio.com/faqs/the-iematch-is-not-an-impedance-adapter/#:~:text=iEMatch gives you the flexibility,1 ohm and 3 ohms.

Hey, can you please explain this article in simpler terms? Thanks!

I was under the impression that impedance can stack, so if I stick the 1ohm IEMatch on Ultra + 0.8ohm output impedance of my DAP, it would equal 1.8ohms total.
