iem

I'm relatively new into HiFi but I recently bought some new IEMs (MOONDROP DUSK 3) and I also have a set of speakers that I plan on upgrading, and I plan on experimenting with Closed/Open back headphones after I get a proper stack. Currently this is all at a desk setup that I stream through, so...

Hello ASR! This is my first time posting! Hope you're all doing well :) I've recently demoed and purchased an Ice Lab Spectrumica and currently have a unit for my personal use on loan from a generous friend of mine. I plugged it into my iFi ZenDac3 (I know it wasn't the greatest purchase) and...

Hi all, I’ve been thinking about this and wanted to get some insight from the community. If an IEM exhibits near-perfect minimum phase behavior, excellent channel matching, and a well-targeted frequency response (like the 7Hz Salnotes Zero 2), and its primary limitation is limited treble...

Im using some Sigmot Supermix 4 and some Bookshelf’s from nubert. I always switch between those two, my bookshelf’s are connected via optical cable to my mainboard, and my iem connected to an apple dongle. My budget is around 400€ or less. Please only recommend products that are mostly...

Hello everyone, I'm Anzol from Cuckoo Studio. I am a mixing and mastering engineer, and I also run an audio review channel on platforms in China. Over the past few years, I have measured a vast number of audio devices, including headphones, speakers, audio interfaces, microphones, and more. By...

Selling a used pair of Fiio FH7 IEMs. These come in the original box with everything they shipped with from the manufacturer. I am the original owner, having purchased them new from Amazon September 2021. The included ear tips were not used, as I used aftermarket ones instead (SednaEarfit)...

Hello, recently with my band we created a small home studio in a little room. We are : 2 Guitars , 1 Bass, 1 Drummer. We play with amp sims and electronic drums, so it is not a very loud environment. The audio interface we are going to buy the next few days is this: Focusrite 18i20 3d Gen and...

I’m looking for new wired IEM that are very stable and don’t break after a few months, while also providing good sound quality. I’ve been using the Truthear x Crinacle Zero:RED IEMs for the past few months, but one side of the earphones is now broken. This always happens with in-ear...

I bought the Zero Reds and used smaller tips than those in the box. I am looking for another pair that will fit my small ear canals (doesn't need to be an IEM). I use an iPhone 15 pro and an Apple dongle to run my In --ears.

I have recently ordered Moondrop variations, I have however already have DX3 pro + Dac/Amp. I am afraid it will fry my IEM, the recent review of Tanchjim Luna is tempting but I don't want to buy it anytime soon. Is it okay to connect variations with Dx3 pro+. I have included both variations spec...

So after years of trying new headphones, headphone amps, DACs I think I am kind of stuck in the audio hobby. In August, I came back from a year-long non reading any reviews or trying new stuff. The amps and DACs are measuring great sounding the same, nothing new and special any more, but I got...

I'm not an audiophile, just someone who enjoys a lot of bass. I listen to hip hop and am searching for an IEM that can deliver the same deep, thumping bass I get from the OnePlus Nord Buds. Some might call it 'muddy bass,' but that's exactly what I'm after. I'm less concerned about clear vocals...

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...

Since IEM testing has been a hot topic lately, has anyone done any bt+dac+amp testing of IEM bluetooth "earhook" adapters? ie. the Moondrop Evo, KZ XZ10 (and their crop of variants: AZ09, AZ10. AZ15, AZ20, etc), FiiO UTWS5 (and 3, although apparently both discontinued in favor of the upcoming...

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...

Samsung has launched a new tws, Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. I went to a Samsung store near my house and listened to it and it was quite interesting. Below are the images provided by Samsung. It is said that a Planar tweeter was used. It was quoted by a reviewer's site called 0db in Korea. It's...

I'm experiencing discomfort with my IEM (In-Ear Monitor) cables pulling on my ears. I'm looking for a solution to keep the cables securely in place around my head, preventing them from tugging on my ears during use.

I'm between these two IEM's for producing my music (mainly beats and electronic) but I can't decide which one would be better, I'll add both curves in the thread so if you want could help me decide between these two. However any IEM suggestions for producing music and also enjoying listening...

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...

I've been on my own journey, rabbit hole for a good IEM here., and my 1st and only IEM is a CCA CRA, which I have a lot of respect for. I understand its the 2nd incarnation of this model, cos I bought and received mine, within the most rece's nt month. It was bought on a whim for approx...
