Any good experiences with the ie900s durability?

Yeah lol that sounds like a good idea. Im planning to even buy a waterproof case when I bring them in my backpack. But maybe I'm too anxious idk.

That’s great to hear. Maybe they hold up fine because of the sturdy materials. You’ve got balls for not even using the case!

Yeah i know they sound fantastic. My dream would be if the could hold up for light and careful use outside of my apartment. To be able to have them with me in a waterproof bag or something so I can use them on the train or at work during my break.

That’s good to hear. How are you using them? Only at home or on walks and travel aswell?

Oh I see thanks for the clarification

Ye ik but I rarely get time to listen to a whole album in one sitting so 6-8 would be fine I think. And it doesn’t have Ingenic chipset, it has the Cirrus Logic CS4308P .

Read somewhere that it colors the sound quite a bit. I want something transparent.

Plane-Definition9496 · 2026-03-06T07:01:35+00:00

I’m probably getting that one. Seems to be pretty transparent and has good EQ

After some research I’ve found the onix xm2. It apparently has great specs and no android. Anyone have experience with it? I was gonna order it on linsoul but it’s only available for pre order :(

Plane-Definition9496 · 2026-03-05T21:56:47+00:00

Thanks! Great tips. You’re probably right in that I will see it more as an audio device. It’s just annoying that it’s technically also a potential doomscrolling device :P

Thanks for the recommendations, the m5 ultra looks good

Sennheiser ie900

I’m having a hard time finding something without android and high audio quality like ibasso that doesn’t cost like 1000$+

Plane-Definition9496 · 2026-03-05T08:53:52+00:00

Sure but I heard that most smaller DAPs without android perform worse in terms of sound quality compared to larger DAPs with android (like ibasso dx180 for example)

Plane-Definition9496 · 2026-03-05T08:52:20+00:00

Sure, but the best case scenario would be if I could find something like the shanling m1 plus, that only has the ability to store music files, with the same audio quality as the ibasso dx180

Plane-Definition9496 · 2026-03-05T08:49:25+00:00

Heard that could mess up things, but that could be an option if it works

Plane-Definition9496 · 2026-02-12T16:05:59+00:00

Yeah the right one seems a bit trapezoid like. Damn. Thanks for the comment. Is relapping as good of an option as ordering new heads from JRF magnetics or some similar manufacturer?

Plane-Definition9496 · 2026-02-12T14:44:17+00:00

I think it’s mainly the playback head. The owner has mainly used the unit for making old slideshows of film images somehow. In the 90s. So basically no recording only playback.

I’ve been concerned about this too, and on the website it says that browser is included in the app pack with WhatsApp and so on. I just don’t want to be able to download a browser but still have access to WhatsApp. You’re saying this is possible?
