This could push me over the edge...
Twin,
Just how much of a "step up" are the Icons over the Puro IE500s?

A little Darker, missing some of the Treble peaks of the Puros, I wouldn't necessarily say they are a STEP UP both have amazing sound quality. The Icons are just Fuller sounding and Much Easier to drive. Comfort level is about even.![]()
All of my current top Favs are VERY good earphones and close in SQ. Except for the HCK which is a Powerhouse. It pretty much stands alone.
I'm enjoying the snot of the Icons. When TWIN states the HCKs are in another league, it really makes me want to hit the buy button. But, as soon as I buy them and they ship, I know something else will come along that is in a league above them (LZ A3 maybe?). Anyway, I'm going to resist the urge for a little while. With my luck though, the HCKs will probably get canceled and I'll miss the boat on those.
Eeew! Earphone snot! That's pretty disgusting.![]()
I've seen that before...not pretty.

Yes. You can clean those with new Mucus- off for IEMs. Available on aliexpress for 167,000 RMB...

Of course there are the horror stories of people not noticing the earphone snot till it is too late. Combines with the earwax and becomes like superglue. Then off to the ear doctor for removal![]()
