I am a bit paranoid. Does the auto fix MD5 option even slightly alter the audio? I think it uses flac -08 command. Or do I store without MD5? Does it matter?

If I want instrument separation, clarity and punchy bass that doesn't bleed and has good control and a bit technically which one of the following IEM is best pick?

Artti T10

Letshuoer s12 (OG)

Kefine Klanar

Kefine Delci AE

Simgot EA500LM

Or if you have something that would outperform these that is welcomed as well

Location: USA

Budget: 120$

Will be used at home.

Thinking of buying Truthhear Hexa or pure to listen flacs. Have some questions...

  1. On android (mine is galaxy s24 plus), I've learnt that the device always resamples while playing. Unfortunately my preferred players (ie musicolet and Jett audio) doesn't have the ability to bypass. Is this a big issue for CD quality flacs?
  2. I've a Ugreen dac from their official store which apparently supports till hi-res. My understanding is 16 bit is below that range. Do I need a separate dongle?
  3. Any recommendation which one to get between pure or hexa? Or something under 100$?
  4. I am basshead in a sense i like a punch but not too much that takes away clarity. My current one is a wireless buds2 pro. The reason i dont like buds2 pro is it sounds a bit mushy to me (maybe placebo, i can't tell)

budget $100, US

Budget: 50-100

Preference: Basshead but punchy, and trebble not too harsh

It's for my flac collection. Device is iPhone and Android flagships

I don't keep entire FLAC album. Instead the tracks I like. So is there any issue If I change album name to all Linkin Park tracks to "Linkin Park" instead of "Meteora"? I meant if let's say I use something like Navidrom or Plex in future

Struggling to assess shoe size

How do you assess which size to buy (US mens). My feet is 9 inch long from ankle to toe. So size charts say my shoe size is US 5.5-6. But size 8.5 (multiple brand) fits as in if I push legs all the way forward (nails touching front of shoe), i can snugly fit one finger between ankle and back of shoe

Did a clean install of windows and installed the latest realtek usb audio drivers. Now realtek app doesn't have equalizer. Any fix for this?

I tried reinstalling the driver and realtek app which didn't resolve the issue
