Together we can spread the Dhamma
far and wide!
Special fund raising events are conducted when Refuge In Dhamma has urgent needs.
At these times, Buddhists who lend a helping hand are genuinely generous and selfless. This is because, on short notice, they are willing to sacrifice their own wealth for the benefit of others in order to help propagate the Dhamma.
This is a truly noble, admirable and wholesome act.
Therefore, let’s rejoice in the contributions that the donors have done!

Circumstance
Refuge In Dhamma uses an In-Ear Monitor (IEM) to edit audio for videos instead of speakers. This is necessary due to the following reasons:
- Isolation from External Noise: IEMs provide a way to focus on the sound we are mixing without interference from surrounding noise.
- Monitoring for Accuracy: IEMs allow us to listen to every detail of a mix, such as subtle changes in EQ, reverb, panning, or compression. This helps ensure that the mix will translate well across different listening devices, as IEMs give a clearer sense of balance and clarity.
- Avoiding Sound Spill: As the room that we are using is not sound-proofed, playing audio on speakers can cause disturbance to others. Therefore, we use IEMs to prevent this from happening.
- Space-Saving: The room that we are using is very small and there is no space to put speakers. So using IEMs is more practical with space constraints.
Due to an unknown reason, right side of the IEM stopped working hence affecting the quality of production.
Therefore, we need a new IEM with balanced frequencies for the following reasons:
- Accurate Representation of the Sound: IEMs with balanced frequencies provide a more true-to-life representation of the audio. When the frequencies are well-balanced, the low, mid, and high ranges of the sound can be heard clearly and without distortion or exaggeration. This helps us to make more informed decisions about how the sound should be shaped in a mix.
- Avoiding Ear Fatigue: This is very important as mixing and mastering of audio can take many hours or even days of listening to the same track over and over again. Hence, using IEMs with a balanced frequency range are generally more comfortable to listen to for long periods.
Upon careful consideration, the Truthear HEXA was purchased as it checks all the requirements as mentioned above at a reasonable price.
