Bandcamp is the most honest platform for that. I regularly buy just for support to some favourites even though I have Tidal subscription- fablestruck

@jon parker the mystery of auditory consciousness is no more no less than the mystery of consciousness in general. It is so interesting to me to observe our struggling with this ancient phenomenon here and be perplexed whether our IEMs or sources or cables are the factors responsible for...- fablestruck

'On the Phenomenology of Auditory Experience with Headphones and Earphones' by Jon Parker. This article I'd like to read sometime.- fablestruck

Yes. Though as I said I am not sure if this is because of the IEM itself or the DAC/AMP. But if the general opinion you summarize from multiple experiences tends towards a specific judgement then probably the IEMs are a decisive factor as well. I saw above that our friend @jon parker sells...- fablestruck

I interchange listening Enigma/Go Pod with NaLe/Nyx+. NaLe is wider, richer sounding with electronica. Enigma more controlled, focused. An impression that the cymbals are coming from the middle of my cranium while with NaLe they originated from the periphery. At its price NaLe is really...- fablestruck

I confirm also that more than other IEMs I have, Enigma are very picky with audio sources- fablestruck

With Go Pod and Black/Gold with Azlas the treble is very controlled. For example the next album has a sibilant tendency and is one I use for treble testing. Enigma handles it great with the above. https://tidal.com/album/174966107?u- fablestruck

As you remember that was my problem with my Enigma as well. This ameliorated with some burn in and I believe it is going to get better still. Also it seems to be a source sensitive issue as @mekap and others have suggested. Change in filters did not help much in my case.- fablestruck

That's my opinion on NaLe for the 200-300 margin. Unbeatable for anyone with a taste of this kind of signature at this price.- fablestruck

Since they are offering enough discount I am sure those will disappear soon. I am curious though why not any NaLe appear on eBay. Maybe to few items distributed and sold in the first place.- fablestruck

I am sure that you can definitely get opinions as to similar sounding IMR units to BC2023 in this thread. Though I never had own one, my impression was that BC was never a truly bass-head IEM. So if this is what you are curious about there are other items from this company around. Also there are...- fablestruck
