Why I'm going to CanJam Socal

The MD Plus is considered a more "fun" and bassier version of the ER4XR. Haven't heard much about the PA Be on Head-Fi, SBAF, etc. and lower ranked on crinacle's IEM ranking list FWIWhttps://crinacle.com/ranking-list/

I’m no expert whenit comes to headphones but I do have a pair of periodic audio be iem’s.  I also have a drogonfly red dac and jitterbug... the dac/jitterbug/attachment is a pita though as far as how big and unruly the combo is.

I listened to a bunch of different headphones at can jam rmaf 3 years ago and felt like the periodic audio be’s were the best for the $. Dan, the owner, is an awesome guy and has great customer service.  If you have any warranty issues he’s great to work with.

Zreviews on you tube is probably a good source for iem info.

if I were you, I’d probably just find out whats the best iem’s at or below $100, plug them into your phone, stream tidal and be done with it.  I’ve tried to get into listening to a nice headphone setup at work and it never worked out for me; work was always too distracting!

I looked around at Periodic Audio’s site. Lots of plots, but the waterfall shows a lot of ringing around 5kHz for their designs.


I have no way of comparing this to other IEM’s, but it’s curious. Do listeners feel they have lots of "air" ??
