  My hisound studios don't do well with low impedance IEMs, it gives off that fatal hiss everyone talks about.  
 
The only IEM I have that is high impedance are the hifiman RE0.  They sound good, but I was looking for an upgrade from that and a little more bass wouldn't hurt heh

The Hifiman RE262 is 150 ohms. It's a more mid-centric take on the general Hifiman sound, according to everyone who has used it.
 
There are also a 90 ohm and 350 ohm pair of IEMs coming soon from Heir Audio, named the Tzar 90 and Tzar 350, respectively.

Is that 350Ω? Wonderful. Depending on sensitivity, they could be darlings for portable amps everywhere. I hope there's a place to demo them in Japan. Well done.

Well, the world sighs in waiting till it comes out, I guess! Sensitivity and impedance are things I've been railing on about since about 2007 or 2006. Why always so sensitive? I'm glad a sensible option will come to market. Looking forward to impressions.
