Headphones

Ordered the HDB 630 as an office/plane/travel/dogwalking headset. Anyone here already some experience with them?
 
I say it again..:
If i can recommend some excellent IEMs it would be the AFUL performer.
So great ...i have the performer 5 ,i Enjoy them every day.
Im willing to buy the 5+2 later.
Hail AFUL...so much respect to them.
 
Anyone familiar with Meze ie 109 pro? Should this price tag be a huge difference make compared to mij fiio ft1 or Philips x2hr?
Unfortunately no shop in my area to get a demo.

RE: Meze 109 Pro

Headfi.org has a thread on this set of headphones, currently with 4,351 responses. That should give you a good range of opinions on them, though reading other people's likes and dislikes will never a substitute for hearing them yourself.
 
I bought an audiotechnica m30x wired almost 10 years ago (couldn't afford m50x then and BT models weren't there i think). Sometime back i got the cushions changed to more comfy ones. Last year i bought a Fiio BTR17 which was at 3-4 times the cost of m30x and now my bluetooth audio for music is m30x with BTR17 - with a wire hanging from my headset into my pocket with BTR17. My teenage son tells me it's not counted as a bluetooth setup, cannot be considered proper wired, but it's just a wierd setup. I tell him it's LDAC, aptx ready with parametric EQ and what not, but he doesn't agree with my opinion that it's a marvelous setup.
Obviously I can't go out with that and make it embarassing to the kids and the wife, so I have a samsung buds2 pro - which is already showing more than it's age of 2 years.

So that's my headphone story.
 
Affordable Wiim streamers, with a relevant PEQ mode, even if there's room for improvement, are a boon for serious headphone enthusiasts using them not in "nomad".
(Suggestions for corrections based on adapted measurement benches abound online... Headphones are just as disastrous in their frequency response as a PEQ mode is effective and useful in this case..in "proportion"...)

It would be nice to consider integrating a relevant crossfeed mode... but there are so many more pressing issues to address regarding audio on our Wiim consoles... the price to pay for expanding the features...
