1. Tansio Mirai X, bought: my most expensive and most loved one. That detail is awesome, man !
2. NiceHCK Himalaya, bought: good, but I am not convinced it was worth the price. Using it with Kato's nozzles.
3. Penon Voltage : waiting for price.

I have enough cables, tips and DACs for foreseeable future; DAPs and desktop stuff are not for me.

I'm with you. The majority of my listening is on my portable equipment, via either my Qudelix-5K or FiiO BTR7.

But the overwhelming majority of my IEMs are just that much better on a desktop DAC+Amp setup

You know, I just have a thought.

What if none of you are real? 😂

How do I know? Besides a handful headfier I have seen in real life, the rest of you, as good and interesting friends are you are, exist only within the screen of my phone. I type things in a box, a few hours later there are some bell notifications of response. All of this could be AI. Or a bot farm somewhere.

Dammit, busted!:scream:

All figments of your tortured imagination. Which frankly reflects more on you than us!:rolling_eyes:

The diferent colors of IEM's will alter your perception of the world, but only if you put them in your ears. Eating them doesn't work. Sorry Neo.

Accepting your decisions but I really do not have any desktop stuff (and have zero will to buy any).

Much appreciated, brothers!
Just been living life. I've been out of the loop for a few months now.
What are some of the best sub $500 IEMs from this year?
Any thoughts about Dusk2, DosCinco or Himalaya?
What is worth attention - Myer Audio SLIIVO SLT6 - for those who endears almost monitor-like neutrality full of a lot details and at the same time with musicality for different music styles.

I forgot to add Timmy's new IEM to my list of anticipation. It's unlikely to be a priority purchase given the price, but it's on the list to think about.

You take the blue IEM - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe.

You take the red IEM - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

Damn son! 1500+ posts in ~8 months! And I thought I was addicted to Head-fi.
See what happened was, I quit MOST other social media sites… and lots of “what I’m listening to now” thread posts lol

Anyone here have any experience with the NiceHCK 60Saga cable?
It's pretty pricey by their standards, but I'm wondering whether it's worth it to bundle it with the Himilaya...

I'm sure it'll pair great with that potato in your profile pic 😉

100% Its a undiscovered Gem love this IEM and it's bass especially. I did a full vid singing it's praises. Sold the Turbo immediately after.

Looks like the Pilgrim just went live on HFG.
