Between getting a Romi mod or get a bag for her....:sunglasses:
Decisions, decisions...between new and newer, the choice is clear. My advice, go with your heart :dt880smile:

I ordered some SE846, but won't receive for 2 weeks - bit of a disaster with Amazon delivery times at the moment... :worried:

I was sorely tempted to get a pair if the Campfire Solaris as the price seems very good, but as I like the sound of the Shure SE535's and find them comfortable, will stick with those (plus half the price).

The Solaris Special Edition sounds amazing with a WM1Z. I’d recommend trying them if you get a chance

''insanity'' in this hobby can be transformed into semi-sanity if taken with small steps

I admit that I know feck-all about IEM's. In any case, I'll see how the Shure's 846's sound and I like the cheaper 535's I have already, just missing some low-end bass.

When buying an iem fit is one of my main considerations now. Shure and especially Westone are practically 'fit and forget'.

Sure. I respect your opinion. To each his own. Like I said I don’t see the value in spending that amount of cash for it.


That is what I call making a psychological barrier! You have already preset your mind on to aaa I dont need this because it is not worth thr cost....

Well that is false, to think that way. You may not want to proceed for a mod but the way you yalk about it is as you dont believe in it!

Same goes for every aspect of audio, some believe in this and that others dont...


Let me tell you that this mode changes your life once again as when you got your stock dap for the first! time!

Yes its that good. Its more then 5% improvement heck its not even measurable in % as the goodness it does is beyond that.

If your happy with stock 1a or 1z fine but dont let your mind fool you 😇 because it looks outrageously expensive.

Pulled the trigger on a WM1a ... I couldn't justify the 2x cost for gold plating and Kimber wiring. I also purchased a dock from Japan; hopefully, it can still be shipped to the US.

New Walkman arrives on Wed... can't wait!
Tbh, not only the wiring and the frame here are different but also the resistor used in 1Z . It makes sound simply a bit better, more driving power
