    Empire Ears - Discussion & Impressions (Formerly EarWerkz)

    I've been looking to get a Traillii but compared it with a Raven with an older bass-light tuning today and it convinced me to wait and give the final tuning a chance. Not sure how helpful this will be given it isn't a final tuning, but quick rambling: - Traillii has sweeter mids, probably the...

    Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!

    Honestly I am not 100% sure, when I was having trouble connecting I handed the stuff over to the helpful staff member who unfortunately couldn't get it to connect as well. I'll try both modes when I head back

    Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!

    Yep that's the one. I will report back here in case anyone is curious. Hoping it works so I can give it a fair trial.

    Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!

    Yep, Snapdragon 8gen2 indeed. L&P customer service indeed confirmed over email to me that the latest firmware is to address 8gen2 chip support, so I guess I'm waiting for Jaben to update their unit and I'll test after..

    Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!

    Tried a few cables including the stock cable and all had the same issue. I've asked Jaben about the firmware, hopefully an update will fix it.

    Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!

    It's a long shot, but I don't suppose anyone has a Galaxy Fold 5 and is using it with their W4? I was at an audio store comparing the W4 and the RU7 today and for some reason the W4 just would only connect to my phone 10% of the time. The RU7 worked flawlessly every time. This was a real shame...

    [FiiO UTWS3] True Wireless Bluetooth Module/MMCX/0.78 2pin/QCC3020/TPA6140A2/ Bluetooth 5.0

    I borrowed a friend’s phone to do the update today, it worked well on the L side, but on the R side I’m experiencing similar issues. Sometimes the update actually gets to 100% and nearly finishes, but the app tells me “Update Failed. Please try again”, and then the problems start again. Seems...

    [FiiO UTWS3] True Wireless Bluetooth Module/MMCX/0.78 2pin/QCC3020/TPA6140A2/ Bluetooth 5.0

    Received an email from FiiO Support saying that the update is only available for Android, they didn’t say anything about future support for iOS. @FiiO Willson do you know if a method for updating firmware via iOS is being planned for the future?

    Hi, how would you update the UTWS3 on an iOS device?

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

    I feel like @Nayparm would have enjoyed his time here more without the MOT label hanging over his head, with all the rules involved. He was happily sharing his progress as an enthusiast, but unfortunately happened to break some rules he was (I'm sure) unaware of. Whether the severity of the...

    Modifying WM1Z/A

    This brought back memories of something similar I tried years ago. I put copper tape on the internal components and found that placing them on those capacitors, like you said, completely changed the sound signature. In my experience the bass increased in quality but treble and general airiness...

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

    Ignoring the matter of who did what first... This is kind of ridiculous lol. Does anyone really own the copyright on a modification to an existing player?

    Modifying WM1Z/A

    Interesting, not sure if I missed the comparison earlier but could you elaborate on the differences? Was it a difference in technicality/tonality/? Were the mods done identical? Wish they were running the same firmware :thinking:
