Hass Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 anything to watch out for when buying the IE800 in the resale market? Are they known counterfeits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karhoul Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Not that I know of. probably grey imports but those are authentic too. Best, KH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audio Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Try the ALO IE800. They mod the wires so that you can have balanced IE800. http://www.aloaudio.com/alo-modified-ie800 (Audio) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karhoul Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 maybe try this portable DAC for a start. http://www.resonessencelabs.com/herus/ Best, KH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otagaz Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Onkyo DP-X1..! dual DAC ... sounds good with a little more sparkles than the Sony NW-ZX2. cost less than S$900.. snappy android GUI response and longer battery life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzone Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Tried the ie800, sounds really good but the tips r not so comfy n isolation is not as good.. I'm also using the Klipsch X10 which has very comfy tips with good isolation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kzone Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 It's a little electronic sounding... lacking the warmth of natural voice / instruments. It's strengths is in abundance of details, wide soundstage n each instrument or voice having its own space in the musical performance. Doesn't collapse in complex music.

InnocentBlood Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 the one thing that i am most excited about is the WA8. if possible, it would be great if you can hook up the Chord Hugo TT to the WA22 and plug in the Ether O - i would luv to hear how all that sounds like together :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karhoul Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Unfortunately, we dont carry the Ether cans. Maybe I can t-loan from the kind people in SLT during the show for your audition. I hope they have extra demo units. WA8, WA22, Hugo TT all will be available. Will you be attending? Show ends too early at 6pm imho. sigh..

jimi1624705950 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 The Wa8 is an amazing amp (only heard that bit). Really re-defines what a portable amp can do. I didn't compare directly but it would be a close fight with the WA6se! Its not officially out yet i think but AV1 has a demo model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizardofoz Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 anyone tried the Master and Dynamic headphones here ? http://www.masterdynamic.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Lim Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Tried them at last year's hifi show in KL. Looks good and well built but sound quality is nothing much to shout about. Thought it over-priced for their top model. One particular model is difficult to drive and even then I wasn't impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerms Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 yep fashion cans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardofoz Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I'm looking to use them on plane trips as they are fully closed and seal pretty well. might try them on for the rest of the week and return them to the apple shop in LA up the road if I don't like them. At US$400 + CA tax might end up with Bose QC25's or just use my old iPhone cable modded Shure E4C IEM's. Seems they don't sell into or ship to Singapore yet, but a few of the guys at PS Audio like them a lot. I saw a few of the MH40 model sitting on peoples desks.
