Never listened to much. not enough bass. had to turn them up to get the same listening level as iem’s. so after about 15 min my ears hurt. left in a door for about 6 months and when i put them on the side adjustment cracked. look on amazon a lot of others have the crack at same spot. did upgrade with grado pads. the mid’s and highs were nice.

Only ever used IEM’s but on the fence between these three.

meze 99 classics, fiio FT3’s or some sundara’s.

currently rocking cra’s and castor bass.

Congrats on having 5k for an audio system.

my headphone 6 component system is only $500.

stereo system is only $500 also. but the bass will play new things on songs you heard a million times.

​

if i had 5k

$220 for wiim 2 pro streamer.

DAC wise: SMSL Su1 dac is under a hundred and is really good. topping also has a new pro d70 octo dac for $600. or you could step up to a denafrips aries 2 for a grand.

Not going to comment on amps or speakers. mostly run headphone setup.

would suggest separates as far as components because things fail.

Snake oil makes some good cables and there cheap.

Goodnight. you system sounds fun.

Everything i have bought used. have sent back for not working in the last 20 years. not doing it anymore. used to do that on e bay. now you got to even check best buy or amazon they will put a used item unless you click new on the side, its annoying.

don’t mind paying a little more to get something that works.

tired of shipping back or arguing with a crappy seller.
