    Best 'Bang for your buck' IEM - Poll

    I'm curious if you are talking about general spatial reasoning or if there is an audio-based spatial virtualization test that you can do? As I would be very interested if there was an audio based test, as soundstage and imaging for me are some of the aspects that I enjoy the most about 'hifi'.

    Best 'Bang for your buck' IEM - Poll

    Update: I got the 7Hz Salnotes Zero and was very impressed! Especially for the price! I caved and bought the Truthear x Crinacle Zero:RED and they also are very impressive, especially the low bass! They certainly are a leg up on the 7Hz Salnotes Zero, but that is to be expected for the price...

    Best 'Bang for your buck' IEM - Poll

    I just got the 7Hz Salnotes Zero as they are just so cheap and they defiantly did not disappoint! Super happy with them. Now just to see if I will cave and buy the REDs when they come out.

    7hz Salnotes Zero - the "other" Zero

    I was thinking of getting an entry IEM and these as well as the Truthear x Crinacle Zero:RED certainly stood out. Anyways I made a poll and a separate thread to see what the general consensus was on the best bang for your buck headphones were if you wanted to vote / chime in.

    Truthear x Crinacle Zero:RED IEM Review

    Very impressive measurements and product! I almost did a 'buy now and think later' with these, but since it would take until mid June to get them I did some searching and it seems like there are tons of great IEM. Anyways, I did not want to derail this review thread with comparisons so I...

    Best 'Bang for your buck' IEM - Poll

    After reading the TRUTHEAR x Crinacle Zero:RED review and thinking to myself that I should get at least one pair of IEM (even though I mostly listen with speakers and subs for the soundstage and tactile experience). I almost fell into the 'buy now and think later' mentality with the Zero Reds...

    Understanding Amplifier Measurements (Video)

    Amazing videos that you have been releasing recently! If we can't reliably trust the manufacturers reported power output for amps nor can we trust the manufacturers reported speaker sensitivity (let alone impedance) is there a rough rule of thumb now much reported "power" to look for in an amp...

    MMM method and website by Jean-Luc Ohl

    I think the filters would work with EAPO. Or at least that's what I was intending on using. I have wanted to try this system out for a while but never found the time. Likely will try it out later this week. When it says to make a recording of the sound files is there any specific recording...

    Room correction - Linux

    That is really too bad that he did not want DRC-fir to get a GUI or more widespread use as it does seem very powerful. I followed this thread that had amazing scripts for running DRC-fir and was actually quite good and efficient at making filters but also generating predicted responses that you...

    EQ Software for Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS/iPadOS and Android.

    FWIW: Equalizer APO + Peace with a mic (Umik-1or2) and REW has for sure been the best audio investment I have ever made... And the only thing you have to pay for is the mic! Amazing!

    EQ Software for Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS/iPadOS and Android.

    Does anyone know of a free macOS option that can do parametric EQ (and ideally import from a text file generated from REW) like Equalizer APO? I have heard that SoundSource can do this, but it costs $41USD. I found that BlackHole and AUNBandEQ can be used as per this guide or this post and are...

    KEF LS50 Wireless II for $600 USD - Would I be insane to pass on it?

    Yeah its looking more and more like a scam (it started off very promising, hence why I posted on here). Thanks for the advice and info though. Will let you know if it magically turns a 180, but looking to be fake.
