These are $10 more on Amazon and you can get them now. Am I just being the "this isn't a good deal" guy?

MrChaunceSR is MSRP (350) on Amazon...

GiantHeadphoneSquidI was only ever interested in the XR version so apparently I was being "that guy". I will show myself out.

MrChaunceLol, BUSTED JK :)
I'm just jealous, I would jump on Amazon for $10 more, but with Etys you gotta go pure. . . (well maybe with those hot new ER3 hussies, but let's not go there)

MrChaunceIn DE and AT Amazon and other European traders these go for 399€. So for me its worth it.

GiantHeadphoneSquidIs it really just the er4-s and er4-sr that are considered pure/the “ety sound”?

DavestefIt's a bit of a silly philosophical distinction. They are the closer representation of the Ety hearing model. The XR bass boost is the result of user feedback; it's more a harmon style 'this is what people like, not what they actually hear' design concession. That said the XR tuning sounds great. I went ahead and bought the ER4XR, and ER2XR (from Amazon, for cheaper and 1 day shipping) and it is an excellent earphone - you really can't go wrong with Ety.

GiantHeadphoneSquidI got the er4sr after going back and forth between the sr and xr. I’ll always wonder if I should have got the xr. People said the sr has the ety sound so I went with that. I’ll probably end up getting the xr eventually too 🤷🏻‍♂️ Just to be sure.

GiantHeadphoneSquidHow do you like the er2?

DavestefSR is the way to go, although I do enjoy having both. The ER2 is weird at its current price, it's so close to the ER3. The biggest difference is that it is harder to drive than both the ER3/4. . . not difficult by any means, but it requires substantial volume increase compared to my ER4 from the same source. This makes relative bass level comparison a bit tricky, but to my ear the dynamic isn't producing much difference in this respect. I myself would recommend the ER3 instead, but I imagine the ER2 will have its enthusiasts, it's a very capable IEM for the price.

GiantHeadphoneSquidMaybe it needs a dedicated amp? Why do you think sr is the way to go?

The audio on my pc38x is not working

One day I just plugged in my Pc38x and they stopped working. I tested the mic and it works, I've tried changing the cord multiple times and have adjusted the volume disk, none of this has changed my situation. I've tested the headphones on my PC, switch, and PS5 and the audio doesn't work there either.

Meze 99 Noir

Heard a lot about these in the past few years, and they sound as good as they look. Deep bass, crystal clear midrange, and solid treble, overall superior sound. Great for multiple genres, special...

Hifiman x Dekoni Cobalt or Massdrop x Meze 99 Noir

Im looking to buy a set of closed back headphones under $200. So far the two main contenders are the Cobalt and Noir. Has anyone compared these two? which seems to be better? Both are around the same price. Ive heard the cobalt is lacking in bass, while thats not ideal im not too worried as I dont often listen to bassy music.

Xduoo Poke II repair

Hi friends, I recently had a mishap with my Xduoo Poke II, that is, it fell out of my hands and now it turns on but the command buttons now work sometimes and sometimes not. I have written several times to Xduoo directly because it was with them that I bought this Dac and to find out what I can do about it but after two months I have not received a response. I live in Mexico City but I would like to know if anyone knows of a technical service in the US that could repair my Poke II and know if it would be worth it for me taking into account the cost of repair and the issue of shipping, or if it is better to think about buying a new portable Dac. Thanks and Cheers everybody.
