Very impressive stuff. Thanks for posting this.
As a wearer of (open-fit, non-custom) high-end, micro-Behind-The-Ear, Receiver-In-Canal hearing aids (aka micro-BTE RIC), it would be great to marry the amazing audio quality of IEMs, the best of hearing aids (durability, battery duration, very fine-tuned programming (gain and frequency)), and the convenience of a conductive microphone for phone calls.
These technologies exist for 2 out of the 3 but not all three yet.
I can't imagine such a device is all that far off given the technology that exists today. Alas, the creators of the individual technologies don't generally overlap, but having such a device would be awesome for those of us who have hearing loss, really enjoy good music and need to talk on the phone.
Soon, soon.
And folks such as Kathy Peck will be very busy.
Cheers.

Some day I'm going to get some nicer in-ear monitors. Interesting to see the process.

No sound from AMP / DAC
Just got my first AMP and DAC setup for my new Senheiser HD600's.
I set it up and turned it on and got no sound to come from it. I tried setting it to default and poking at the settings in the Sound Control panel to get it to work but I still got nothing! I do hear a small amount of static when plugging in my headphones to the amp but it is faint.
Is it not set up correctly?

Reserved for Shipment Even Though in Stock
The 6xx refurb b-stock was in stock and I bought them. They were to be shipped on the 20th and it's almost the 23rd. What is taking them so long to shop for something in stock?

dt990 Pro 250ohms DAC/Amp upgrade
Currently running them through the headphone jack on a Scarlet 2i2 (1st Gen) audio interface and wondering if upgrading to a FiiO K5 would make a noticeable differenced in audio quality in your opinion?.
Open to other all in one DAC/Amp options around that price point with line outs for monitors.
Thanks!

All Sales are final ?
First time shopping with Drop, and unfortunately I didn't noticed that the shipping time will be a month later. Contact them to cancel the order. but they told me all sales are final. I have to say this is sad. and all I see is a label said "free return" instead of "all sales are final" under the add to cart bottom. I know they may have a explanation for their policy, but this thing is so tricky.

HD58x or HD6XX
I am debating if I should get the HD58x or the HD6xx. I did some research but its still hard to chose.
I'm mainly gaming and I don't have an amp. Well idk if the Blue Yeti counts as an amp or not. I will either plug this into my blue yeti or motherboard(link below). I'm a newbie to sounds and stuff so please dumb it down for me. If you have a recommendation of headphones that are better for gaming and listening to music comment it.
Thanks for your help.

I will really like you to solve this and send me the correct product and contact me to let me know that you are aware of the situation, please.

Readying the impression putty:
I wanna take a moment to thank Kathy for making everyone feel at ease and coming all the way to our office to hang out for awhile. Kathy is an amazing woman who has accomplished so much. Take a moment to read her profile piece if you haven't already (https://www.massdrop.com/talk/56/music-profile-kathy-peck-the-h-e-a-r-organization). What was your experience like when you got your first impressions made? If you haven't had them made yet is there anything holding you back (besides financial reasons)?
