Yes, i feel the same. From the IEM’s I’ve owned or tried, more was definitely not better for me. -
I use comply tips all the time. Even on my airpod pro’s.
-
Same here. KZ's have use to me as the fit is terrible.

I too have been going this route recently. As much as I love my headphones, and they are easier to take on and off if I get interrupted, I fond my IEM's to sound 'better' when im playing along at home. I think my headphones might be a bit too flat for general music.

Andertons have become my first port of call (after Amazon) for music gear. Good prices and ive sent a few things back over time and it's always been smooth, quick and hassle free. One day I will go and visit them as they aren't too far.

Ive always liked Chorus on bass, in the right songs, but recently I rediscovered phaser, and, oh my.........😂 Still got a Boss CB3 at home, and have had various Chorus pedals over the year, but now I use phaser in a lot of songs that I really shouldn't 😇
-
Id still trust the WS-90, but will avoid using it at home. Ive only really just started using it with FX so maybe its always been like this, but until recently i had have no issues at all. Always thought it looked ugly though. For reference, here are the 3 i own side by side.

I got the Xvive A58 system today. Im very impressed with it. It's shorter than my Lekato WS-90 by a noticeable amount, but a bit deeper. It fits on my P bass much better and doesn't stick out like the WS-90 does. They are even more compact than the Xvive U2. Im sure my WS-90's are either faulty or just not very well shielded (guessing the second). No issues with how good they sound and are noise/dropout free as far as what I hear on headphones and through as rig, but ive encountered 3 situations where they have cause other equipment to produce noise. The latest one I discovered tonight when I have the receiver plugged in to my Blood Moon phaser. When I engage and disengage it there is a very loud noise. Much more than there should be. No issue with either of my Xvive systems. That, as well as the disruptive noise I got when using the Ampeg SGT-DI, and if I put my hand hear the receiver when its off and plugged in to something means they will now just be a back up for live stuff.

How was Your rehearsal last morning or night ?

Well he has been playing for over 40 years I believe. Ive only known him for 3 of those. I joined the band and I had a lot of work to put in. I was happy to put the work in to get them up to speed, but it seems he is so stuck in his ways that it will impact the band getting gigs. Having played the club/function scene for a good 20+ years I know the standard thats needed. All are competent players, but struggle with the fact that thy have to be professional about it if they want paid gigs. -
I seem to have a lot of dropouts at home with 2.4ghz these days, so try and avoid using my older Xvive's if I can. It seems the WS-90's aren't shielded well, but I dont get drop outs. Hoping the A58 will be the of both worlds.

I have as well. He also has a tuner that can mute, it's just that he doesn't see the need to. -

Had a good rehearsal last night, but one of my guitarists still thinks it's the 70s. Small Marshall combo with a stack of Gain and drive pedals. Sound was good when playing (although really too heavy for most of our songs), but my god the noise when we stopped. Its sounded like there was a rain storm in the studio. I just dont get how he (or anyone else) can have that sort of noise when not playing. I have all the answers to how he can stop it, and if I ask him (got to the point where I was telling him) to turn if off he would, but totally clueless to the fact that he needed to. Even worse, I was the only one that this bothered. Dreading the next gig. -
Depending on your budget, you could possibly get a multi FX that can do it all in one go, inc amp sims/cab etc. The Zoom's/Helix stuff have GK sims in them, as well as multiple chours pedals.
-
The TC Electronic Helix Chorus has a Duff Preset IIR, although you could probably use almost any multi knob chorus.

Just seen a review that stated the Xvive lasted over 7 hours. I’ll order those today. £118 on Amazon spread over 5 months interest free.
