Probably keeping the BA. The UERMs sound great out of it.

Does this call for a UERM+BA portable rig photoshop contest?  :P

There is just something insane about keeping the BA for some IEM's!  Gotta love it!!

The UERMs aren't very sensitive anyway.  It probably works out well enough.  I wonder how my PFE232s would do from it.  They're the same efficiency IIRC.

I wonder how much hiss my SE530s would pick up though.  They're another 12dB/mW more efficient...

They aren't perfectly neutral from the BA but are certainly non-fatiguing.

Don't you think that neutral = non-fatiguing?

No treble peaks = non fatiguing.


They are bassier and darker out of the BA. I would like to try good solid state with the UERMs. Might be better fit.

The Objective2 isn't good enough?   ;)

They'll probably like a lower Z out though.  What do you guys consider good solid state anyway?
