Hello guys, I find it a bit curious that many people here and on similar forums online have the AK240, but have IEMs that are much less expensive than the player itself (sometimes up to 6x cheaper).


Am I missing something here?

Don't know .....I have Shure SE 846...."my favorites....and one pair of Sennheiser iE800 so I guess combined it's close in price not too far off

+1 is that to interrupt the output stream with volume suppression would affect the output SQ, I think.

Yes but I think even high end AV receivers have this feature and yes you may turn it on or off...I also wish it was included .....not high on the list but would be nice to have

People tend to upgrade one piece at a time I'm guessing.  After buying an AK240, most other than Rudi need to take a breather!

I can't think of an IEM more expensive than the AK240?

VE6 XC?

remember the 20 ba model that was $8,000 minus head-fi discount of $400.

If this is not a joke, can you let us know more about the name of this IEM?

Piano Forte It's on sale now so maybe equal to the VE6 XC.
