    Simgot EW300 with different nozzles and filters.

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone tried the new Simgot EW300 yet? I have a pair and I think it's technically quite impressive for the price, but it's also a bit bright/zingy. So I tried to calm the treble with filters and foam but those impacted the midrange too much. I remembered I still...

    Distortion confusion

    Are high-end gear more revealing of source distortion? I've noticed audio distortion a whole lot more when using my EM10 than when I'm using 7Hz Zero 2 or CX 400-II while I'm watching youtube at 1.3x speed. I'm not sure if the issue is the drivers or the audio compression that happens when the...

    I'm looking for something to hold the IEM around my head so it doesn't tug on my ears.

    Has anyone experienced this coming from asymmetric itd?

    First of all, this is my experience with BRIR. I think it's going to be the same in real life, but please note that it would be unrealistic to place the problem the same and run it as it is. I'm enjoying BRIR, XTC and I try a lot of things in the meantime. Not long ago, I was thinking to myself...

    Do you invest money in IEM cables for Design and comfort?

    I've been uncomfortable with some of the default cables and am on an adventure to find one that has the color,design and softness I want. (It's not about the sound) However, I don't see many users on ASR using cables made by Aliexpress. What about you? I used to use these plain...

    DIY: Improvement of IEM molding for Comfort

    Has anyone tried this? The IEM was fixed to fit the inner ear using a Sugru product. Apple's Earpods are originally comfortable. But it was very loose in my ears and showed bass loss and imbalance in response. It's not a big deal in normal listening, but I listen to all IEMs in hrir (brir), so...

    The Shape of IEMs to Come

    Read this article on headphones.com talking about the advantages of using B&K5128 for in-ear headphones specifically, and found it interesting. If I understood it correctly, it is saying that 5128 with its closer-to-human-ear acoustic impedance provides better insights into how in-ear...
