Hey all, The birthday of a friend on mine is coming up and I want to gift him a pair of headphones. I wanted to gift IEMs but he says his ears don't tolerate anything inside. (which I believe is more of a issue related to bad ear-tips? but it would be a shame to spend money on it to try, sadly...

Nope it just works for me, but it only seems to work when I use the buy now button or just have a single thing in my cart. Really no idea how it works and how it works for other countries.

For items above €200 I always get price adjustment for price without VAT but the strange thing is, I don't have to pay VAT on imported electronics? I only pay like €10 in handling costs for items over €150. See my screenshot for DaVinci

I remember watching Akros his review on this. It didn't seem to stand out enough to the competition like the Pula PA02 and Performer 5 but it doesn't seem a bad IEM. Considering CVJ doesn't have that good a name they should have priced it more competitively

The other guys mentioned Xinhs already but IvipQ is also an option if you find a nicer looking cable there. Quality for both is fairly similar, I read a rumor they are made in the same factory. But to me it seems IvipQ has a bit better prices for some stuff.

The only SLT6 graph on Squig is TDM's and he doesn't have the OG SA6. Guess you can still do some low key comparisons using another persons measurements. SA6 VS SA6 MK2 https://bukanaudiophile.squig.link/?share=SA6_(Switch_Off),SA6_Mk.2_(Switch_Off) SA6 MK2 vs Sliivo SLT6...

What are the tips that you are using right now? On some of the cheaper tips the umbrella can be a little weak and not having enough outward pressure but it can also be the material. I am a big fan of the Penon Liqueur tips that have a bit of a sticky surface, as well as the Divinus Velvet. They...

I am not sure if I will be able to help you with this. I don't have analytical ears and I don't have many sets to compare with. I will still give it a proper testing and let it burn in a bit more but so far while it certainly isn't a bad set I do miss the warmth I have on the Himalaya and...

My Sliivo slt-6 arrived just now. First impressions are good but damn that nozzle is big!! It wasn't easy to slip on some Divinus Velvet and even then I wonder if I get the seal from the umbrella or the stem? On my other IEMs the Divinus seem to be more comfortable. It seems Myer audio...

Just trusting one small reviewer whose tastes didn't align with mine at all. Thankfully it was a cheap mistake (KZ PR3). Although crazy enough I still use it at times using a 500 mesh filter. Still bright for my taste tho. Otherwise I can't say I made many mistakes apart from not respecting my...

60cm, so half of a normal cable.

The Fiio BTR17 is slated to come out in September? Might be worth the wait if you can? Although I see people recommended a lot of other great stuff as well. I use the BTR15 myself and I just love the form factor, I use it hanging around my neck on a cord when at work. I feel the sound quality is...

I don't own either set but probably not, as the Penon 10th uses 2 6mm DD's instead of one 8mm DD and the 10th uses EST's for the top end. So it would be natural to assume that EQ'ing them to be alike would not make them sound the same.

I thought you are the biggest KZ/CCA fan and that I could call out all model numbers and you tell me exactly how many drivers are inside? You disappoint me a bit ahaha :P

It seems very difficult to look at the date of a post :x I think this thread is way way past expiry date

When I got back from work I had my two IvipQ cables in the mailbox. One of them is the IvipQ-143, the cable I tried to promote a little bit during the sale because it was really cheap for what it offered. I see the price on that now is €124 and I got it for like €37. The other is a hybrid...

I thought about getting that cable but decided it was too expensive. Since the plugs are resin and most likely made for the IEM I would have asked them if they could have left out the red color from the resin mix. It doesn't look as good to me. In the end I bought two cables at the same price as...

Hopefully your mileage will vary but be prepared to be disappointed. For me that texture made them grip worse than others ear tips.

What do you use to drive the IEMs? Just your phone, a dongle or something else? That might help people to give better recommendations.

I tried, I can hear a little difference but it is not like either of the IEMs made it sound bad or that it felt like a huge difference? I tried with the Aurora song and also with Little Lies from Fleetwood Mac. In the end I felt the Delci sounded a tad more natural to my ears. There were no...

It is not on Tidal either, but it is good. thanks @o0genesis0o I will do a comparison a little later

I was trying to A/B my Artti T10 versus my Kefine Delci. Other than noticing some differences in the bass (quick planar decay vs slow DD decay? and/or just the movement of air?) my untrained ear didn't notice that many differences. But I found out that actually makes a bit of sense? After that...

Fair enough, it is true you can always have a lemon but when you bought 3 of them that feels like a waste :frowning2: Edit: I do feel like Xinhs "sales" are not actual sales?. Not that I am trying to badmouth them a lot, it seems to happen everywhere on Aliexpress that companies mess with the...

Damn that is sad, maybe a link on top of the picture might help people too. I have a lot of IvipQ cables if rumors are true and they use the same factory, I kind of wish I could let someone test those my A/B skills are really horrible but I will keep trying. I do think my most expensive cable...

This was my first experience on Head-fi classifieds and I am glad it was withy Armstrj2. It started with a great price for the product, communication was pleasant and he sent out the product very fast. I received it in good condition.
