    Best IEMs between $200 and $300?

    The new Oratory1990 one to Harman is very similar to my own but doesn't knock the 3k region down quite as much. I tune more to crinacle's 2020 target Oh and the Nova ain't small but it's well formed.

    WiiM Ultra... Am I missing something?

    Suspect they envisage other standalone digital sources (Im thinking CD/TV) might want to be fed via the Wiim DAC into your amp but they would be SPDIF connections. Take your point but I doubt many would get this to then use as a USB DAC with a PC therefore they took the lower cost for vast...

    Best IEMs between $200 and $300?

    I would seriously consider the Truthear Nova- less than $200 but once you leave the sub $50 market I think these might be the best value IEM I have tried IF you can EQ them. I wouldnt touch if you cant EQ and listen remotely loud as the 3khz area becomes uncomfortable.

    If you are going PC-USB- SU6- Coax-RME how do you expect the settings in Madiface driver to have any impact on what the RME receives? Its not connected to the PC

    How come JBL can afford to be so sloppy ????

    Must say given comments from OP they were expecting JBL to make his headphones good again free of charge rather than suggest a route for replacement pads, hence my somewhat incredulous responses. I don't think im alone in reading things that way but perhaps @World Traveller can clarify their...

    How come JBL can afford to be so sloppy ????

    Do you expect the maker of your car to supply new tyres after 6 years? Pad wear and durability depends on many factors including materials used, frequency and duration of wear, user's body chemistry etc etc .

    How come JBL can afford to be so sloppy ????

    6 years is a good run I'd say. I'd also love to see their actual response to your customer enquiry as your paraphrasing doesnt sound particularly corporate. (they told you ) "they have no resposibility on the product´s Quality and to go and take it as they are"

    Serious Question: How can DAC's have a SOUND SIGNATURE if they measure as transparent? Are that many confused?

    I saw an interesting piece of trivia the other day. Can't vouch for it though. If you'd bought the new iPhone every year it would have cost over $20k. If you'd have invested that then in apple stock would be in the hundreds of millions $ Depressing

    TempoTec Sonata BHD Pro Portable DAC & Amp Review

    Think the answer lies in this comment above the power graphs on the Space review: "The compatibility issue I have with testing causes the noise floor of these sweeps to be about 15 dB higher than they really are. So let's use them for computing max power:"

    Truthear Nova IEMs

    Use either the graph comparison tool on crinacle.com or squiglink to do it manually or use Autoeq.app to suggest filter adjustments (I would set the max freq to 7 or 8 khz though as it gets pretty wild above that. The custom filters option on autoeq.app allows you to specific filters too so...

    USB DAC with optical output and RCA output

    Optical out will likely be a pass through of the input so no. Edit actually I'm not sure quite what you're asking. If you take the d10 as an example, it has no volume setting to alter (many other dacs do). If there was a volume control on the dac then the rca output would be affected by it but...
