Why haven't I received a shipping code or response from customer service for my order in over 3 weeks?
Hello, I apologize for using the community to post a customer service ticket essentially, but I haven't gotten any update from this website for my FIRST ORDER regarding some headphones I ordered. Essentially, my partner ordered me some gaming headphones ( Drop + EPOS PC38X) a few weeks ago. I have an attached screenshot of the confirmation code on this post. Normally I'd expect a shipping code to be provided, at most, a week later, but I decided to give this website a little bit more patience because to begin with, my girlfriend was skeptical, but after reading some posts on Reddit recommending this site, I convinced her it wasn't a scam. 3 weeks later, lo and behold, we still have not gotten any kind of shipping update. I am just wondering, on average, how long it takes for an order to get to the buyer here. I have ordered from websites like Shien and etc, so I am not really stressing anything, but considering the fact that I sent customer support an e-mail 10 days ago and have...

58X and 660S:
If you already own the HD600, and wanna try something different in this price range, maybe you could buy the Massdrop x Hifiman HE4xx (almost the same than the HE400i). You'll need a decent SS amp to drive them properly, but I read some really good stuff about them (and the usual price on them is 50% more expensive, at least!). Some info here: https://www.innerfidelity.com/content/massdrop-x-hifiman-he4xx-planar-magnetic-headphones.
P.S.: sorry, now you'll have to spend $169 on these cans :) so do I!
Chi-fi IEMs with warm sound? Hmm I don't have many warm sounding (doh)... With a V-shaped warm-ish sound and a super comfy fit, the Memt X5 are one of my favourite budget IEMs, but the slightly recessed mids might hold you back. I use them as my workout headphones, and for the price (under 20 bucks) you can't go wrong. The legendary KZ ATE are nice, dark and warm. They sell for under $10. Other notable warm IEMs are the Einsear T2, Tin Audio T515 and KZ ZS3 (these ones are said to improve with the Slater mod, easy to perform).
Warmth aside, some other of my favourite chi-fi IEMs are: Tin Audio T2, TFZ Exclusive 5, Seahf AWK-009, Tennmak Dulcimer, KZ ZS5, Xiaomi Piston 3... I think I might have a problem. And on another subject, a well-known warm headphones (not IEMs) that I love are the Koss Porta Pro. Initially I felt a bit dissapointed, they have a huge treble rolloff, but after some listening I feel like the treble gained a bit of presence (maybe it's just my brain, I'm still a bit skeptical on the burn-in subject) and they sound a bit like a "Lo-Fi HD650".
