Reply to Did anyone in this hobby ever stop buying new gear because they found what they were looking for? by sujanfloofens
I have to kick myself on an almost daily basis from buying an "upgrade". I have the HE-4XX fast I use as my daily driver on my pc, and they are fantastic. That being said, I'm feeling a weird itch for something more. My wallet really cannot afford that lol.

I'm waiting for when my HE-4XX start to fall apart. I got them November 2021, but they are still going good. I bought a new cable shortly after getting them because of how bad it was and recently replaced the pads because the old ones flattened agar a year of use. I love how they sound so much.

Usually a set that has a wide Soundstage. It's pretty cool hearing that.

There is something special when you close your eyes and try to pin-point every instrument being played and where they are in the room.

Boxed or unboxed?

I think I'm happy with what I have. I would be lying if I said I didn't have that itch for something more, but I don't have the money for it.
Current main set: HE-4XX AKG-K371 Moondrop Chus.
If I was to get anything new, it would probably be a new set of IEMs. Maybe the 7hz Timeless?

Very nice! I've been wanting to get a set for myself because the stock pads on my 4XX are wearing out. How did you get the rings cleaned?

I'm using the drop version and I don't notice any imprints, even with my long hair. Not sure if having straight hair helps

I had a set of Arias that died about a year of limited use. It's too bad, because they sounded amazing.

Reply to What is the absolute cheapest pair of headphones/IEMs you would describe as enjoyable? by DwellerInIce
The Chus have been great for me. A replaceable cable would be nice, but at $20 it's hard to pass up

Reply to My 1 and a half year experience with the Arias (and other headphones) - A slight letdown by TomasJ74
As far as I know, I did nothing wrong with mine. I properly stored them and only used them when I was doing chores inside the house, which was usually once a week. Mine lasted for about 1 year as well and did the same thing that happened to you. I have the Chus, but I wanted them in my car for days that I didn't remember to bring my Arias. Funny thing though, I like the Chus more than the Arias lol.
