- Your rig: ip6 / PC < planning to get w adaptor any recom?

- What type of usage: movies/ gaming/ music
- File format used in your source: mp3
- Genre of music you listen: Electro to classical
- Headphone / earphone type: IEM
- Other requirements: mic volume control or not, doesnt matter.
- Budget: Have a x7i to sell + Top up = 300-400 ?

Have been using x7i for sometime.
It's definitely great for classical.
But when songs get a little bassy, i didnt like it.
Will having 2BA IEM help ?

Any pro able to recommend any?

Saw TKD BA200 for 99 @ LZD

With this price range, I'll go for JVC FXZ200 or FX750. I find the latter with fuller bass but both are clear sounding IEMs, suitable for the songs you're listening.

so many headphone models got long cable like 3m but if i wanna buy the headphone then shorten it to 1.2 or 1.5m cable can or not? most audio shops can do?

and another thing is, will they mod the original 3m cable or make a new one? if mod the orig cable then void warranty?

Hey guys, need some advice here...

I am current using the Sony XBA-3iP for a few years now...and I am considering to change/upgrade....

I am quite tempted by the current deal for the Westone W30 on Massdrop @ US$299.99...

Is it a worthy upgrade, considering that both are using triple balanced armature?
