If I was on a desert island with solar power and a few of my preferred tips then honestly the R&P spring P1’s would keep me happy too.
If it had to be one, I’d find a pair that works well with everything, but needs to have a pressure relief system. There are a few models here and there, but I think 64 Audio and FiR popularly uses them.
MEST. Easy ass decision. The detail isnt absalute top tier, but the way the staging and presentation are done already make me use them more than all my other IEMs and cans combined. Hell, I may actualy just sell everything else anyways
Those seem so interesting!
And I had to chuckle when I saw the downside of “too much text on the shell”.
That text & style is something all the cool kids in Berlin would love.
I like the aesthetic alot!
If I had to keep one set?
Probably the Fiio FH3 that I will receive tomorrow, since my only other pair is
a CCA C10 that’s a bit too sibilant for my taste lol…
lol, we all got different tastes I guess.
The A7 should be endgame for most people I believe, even more so with its versatility.
Tis funny the Z1R’s remind me when it was all music and I didn’t ‘stress’ about audiophile stuff…don’t get me wrong I had some ok speaker systems… I’d just put on an album and kick back and enjoyed everything.
I’ve had the pleasure of being able to try some TOTL impressive gear. Some of them have so much technicality that it demands your attention.
At that point though, one may end up listening to gear rather than listening to music.
It’s nice to have a balance between the two and reflect why we’re getting this gear to begin with.
My Tin T2. Had them, they broke, bought the Starfield and then decided to buy the T2 again because I liked it better. Someday I’ll fork over the money to get the A6 or A7, someday when I’m rich.
A7 for me too…
Does it all.
Only one?
Impossible!
There are at least two with me, both of which are kind of addicting because of their fun factor.
I also vote for 2… My Andro 2020 and my LCD2pf… Just right for anything I want to throw at them !
Easy for me, my ex800st, it does things I love with bass guitar that I just cant get with others so far. But the comfort is almost as high on the list…they disappear with the right tips. Much love due to that.
My Fearless S8Fs for sure…
This is a really hard decision. Probably my custom Legend X, but Andromeda 2020 is a real close second. The Legend X to me is a bit more versatile and my music preferences favor it slightly better. If my Campfire Solstice sounded as good as the 2019/2020 Andromeda, there is a chance I’d choose that since the Solstice is extremely comfortable to wear. (Oddly enough my Solstice measures extremely close to the Andromeda, but sounds a little different which is weird). If MEST had more bass quantity and was at all comfortable than I’d probably choose that.
Edit: Z1R is also really good, but can’t dance with it since it’s so heavy lol
L700mk2, all day any day.
That’s one mighty big IEM
LOL, didn’t see the category this thread was in. I’d go Mangird Tea w/o EQ, FH7 w/ EQ.
Is this like keeping one pair of iems you already own or a dream set?
Yeah a set you already have
Dang. I’m not there yet. Give me to the end of the year, I’ll have an answer
