So you think a warmer (or musical) DAP is a better combo than a more neutral DAP like dx200 or QP1R? Because I also own a very musical DAP (Calyx M) and think about buying the CIEM version of the PP8 this year.

Well with the DX200 and LPG, the P8 is sometimes a bit unforgiving and lean.

Both are good matches for different tastes with this IEM. I like neutral source though. Chord Mojo.

It depends what you call neutral, DX200 and Mojo are called closed to neutral and sound nothing alike. It mostly depends on taste and also the music you listen to..

If it is a lot of well recorded classic and jazz, most good sources will do. For a lot of modern music I would recommend a slightly warmer source like the WM1Z. And I don't just talk from trial as I own the P8 and all the sources mentioned.

Once again only my opinion..

I agree completely. I believe you mentioned this earlier in the thread, but I have found that tips do make a difference. Do you still use the new spinfits? That is what I switched too after your recommendation.

No, the double flange spinfit sound great but hurt me too much. Back to single...

i'm using the new CP220 and still using it. it doesnt feel natural at first but now i'm getting used to it...  havent planned to go back to single atm.

Since I've tried triple flanges I couldn't go back. Everything else sounds muffled in comparison. Ok, they're not comfortable, very deep insertion, but man, the sound is incredible, you get better bass, more details, etc.

So far, the WM1Z is my favorite source for the P8, it makes the P8 more organic and smooth.

+1 P8 is one of the best iem during Camjam Singapore. Still thinking to pull the trigger or not. Love the presentation.

Tried the search bar in the thread but couldn't find an answer. Since its a matte coating, will it wear easily?

It doesn't seem like coating but like the material itself. In my opinion, it won't change at all.

So I've had my set for a couple of months now and I have to say, this is the reference signature I've been looking for. Reminds me of the Etymotic ER4XR but clearer, more transparent and much more resolving. The ProPhile-8 is one of the finest iems I've had opportunity to hear and quickly has become my go to iem (with Andromeda a close second).

It is in fact. There's not a single day that I don't get delighted by the timbre and accuracy. Then all that spaciousness, or spaciality and fullness/richness. They're super.

I've been enjoying them too for a few months but the more I read about the Andromeda/Vega, the more I'd like to try them. Is the Prophile-8 very close to Andromeda with the bass switches on or are there other differences of note? I know the Vega is a different beast altogether.
