TLDR; reccs for comfy, bass-heavy dynamic/hybrid IEMs that are not the Ikko OH10, pref. max $160-170ish. Source = Spotify Premium over phone 3.5mm. Hi guys! As per the title, IEM newb here, not a hi-fi quality listener, don't grasp most of jargon used here. Have only worn basic wired earbuds...

Hi, I'm looking for my first IEMs and I want them to have the best noise isolation possible for my budget. I don't really care about having a great sound quality, I just want something to listen to music in and at the same time isolate myself from external noises so I don't have to crank up the...

Hello everyone, After my Dunu Studio SA3 broke, I need a new pair of IEMs to daily drive. I really liked how they sound and would like something similar, maybe a little more bass/low mids. I listen to a wide range of genres, from rock, metal, hip hop to trance and techno. They need to be...

I'm new to the hobby but I have watched quite a few vids from Crinacle, headphone show, etc. I currently have 1 IEM (Freya), 1 TWS (Dev. Gemini I), and 2 headphones (XM4 and Steelseries prime). I would like to get more IEMs ( 3 to 5 more ) and my budget is 800 EUR (total). IEMs I've tried...

Hello! I’m new here, but it seemed like a great place to potentially educate myself on a complicated topic I’m curious about. Recently, I’ve been trying to decide between the new ThieAudio Hype 4 and the Xenns Mangird Top. Taking a look at the frequency response graphs, they’re extremely...

I was looking for meetups/stores where I can check out iems and get a feel for things

Hi All, Sorry for the long post, Can somebody recommend a good IEM max 150 $ range? My current low-end QKZ is about to given up.. My points: No cheapy plastics (willing to negotiate if the IEM is really good) No Dac/Amp require to drive Clean and sensible sub-bass, bass is not leak to other...

Hello everyone. I am looking to upgrade from my Final Audio F7200 IEMs, but frankly, I'm not sure what the options are without having to jump right up to the kilobucks range. Would like to just canvas recommendations from the net for something beneath the kilobucks range. (If I really should...

Hi, Given my TWS earbuds just died, and my growing discontent with wireless audio, I decided to invest in some proper IEMs (yes I already have two pairs, but those are currently in use by my second half). I usually listen to music on my Edition XS (EQ'd to Harman) and I'm looking for something...

Hi everyone, Im more of a headphone guy but recently i started to use my old RHA MA750 which i rarely used in the past and applied the oratory harman eq to them and im kinda hooked on the sound, i feel that it sounds considerably better than my over ear HD 560S. Without eq they feel a bit too...

Hello, I'm currently looking for new IEMs, since my Westone UM2 stopped working after 13 years. Budget Around 300€. I can go up to 400-500€, if there would be something special for me. Source/Amp I use them on my iPod Classic and on my desktop PC. My iPod is at the end of its lifespan, though...

My previous IEMs are tfz t2 ( bassy v-shape) and the hype blon 03 I want to have a more details on the instruments and vocals without sacrificing too much oompf and rumble from the low end. So far these are what I'm looking at KZ ZS10 Pro X, TinHifi T3 Plus, Cadenza and probably risking the pr2...

I'm ordering a very expensive 2 pin cable and I need to make sure all my points are covered for compatibility. 1. This IEM has 0.75 mm pins? The cable maker has informed me they have 0.75 mm pins. 2. Anole VX has reverse polarity: If I simply reverse the pins, is this issue solved, or are...

Hi I'm new around here so please bear with me. I've been getting into the Hi-Fi scene for a while and currently own a pair of Hifiman Sundara's and their Drop-HE4XX too. But onto the questions. I've recently bought my first set of IEM's after having an accident that meant I couldn't wear my...

Does anybody have any recommendations for IEMs around the $1000 price bracket? Including upcoming IEMs?

Hello! I want to hear what people think are good pieces of gear (IEMs and headphones alike) specifically for classical music. It's made a resurgence in my life, and I've been enjoying the instruments used in classical music a ton, and would like to know what gear people think would maximize the...

I mostly listen to hard rock/classic rock/rock n roll like led zeppelin, acdc, arctic monkeys, wolfmother etc. I tried dunu falcon pro and I really liked it. I want something exciting with natural clear details, decent seperation, lively energetic instruments with a full musical fun. I will use...

Hello Head-Fi! As the thread title says, I'm looking for some new low profile IEMs. Some background, my dog decided that my Sennheiser IE 300s looked like a fun chew toy for him and destroyed one of the housings. I used them as my somewhat cheaper, just throw it in my bag and take them with me...

Hi all, I am asking for your advice once again! I want to buy an IEM for travel. I mostly travel by train. Looking for an IEM around 100 euro's. I like a strong bass and listen to a lot of rock. But I got one problem. My ears have a weird shape so the IEMs with a big housing I tried don't...

Hi everyone, IEM total newbie (more of a headphone/speakers user) and looking for some advice please :) I'd like to experience different sizing/tips/comfort/fit of IEMs, so I can discover whether I can find IEMs that are comfortable. When I was younger I didn't like stuff in my ear, but...
