    Fugumikan gave 5 stars to this new IEM: Twistura D Major. Unfortunately, there are no English subtitles available. If you’re curious, Paul Wasabi also covered it. The IEM is priced at $49.99 and features a 10mm Dual-Chamber Dual-Magnetic Dynamic Driver, switchable nozzle filters, and uses...

    The TRN Orca is the second IEM I’ve ever tried from TRN—the first being the Conch. They contributed heavily to my love for their IEMs, and let’s not forget my recent TRN shill phase! 🤣 I bought it on launch for $17, and it’s one of the few cases where I’d happily give the company more money...

    What if you don't have a partner? 🫠 Joking aside... Wait a minute, you just said partners? Ryokan, is there something you need to share with us? By the way, my previous message was meant as a joke too! 🤣 Joking aside (this time for real), for people who have tried all of them—or some of...

    Today, I received my 4.4 cable for the Delci. I chose the official cable from Kefine primarily because I really liked how the stock 3.5mm cable sounded with the Delci— also I really appreciated its esthetic and lightweight. The Delci, when used in balanced mode, sounds just as good as I expected...

    I’m aware that various factors, including sources, as well as the other variables you mentioned, significantly impact the soundstage of IEMs. This effect becomes quite noticeable when I switch between different DACs or experiment with different eartips and cables! 😄 My point specifically was...

    Thanks for the very insightful description; I was really curious to hear your impression! To be honest, aside from the perfect summary of its sound, I’m a little confused about the soundstage matter. Apart from planar IEMs, the Medusa had one of the largest soundstages I’ve experienced in recent...

    I’m really happy that you’re enjoying the TRN Orca. It has been in my daily rotation since the moment it arrived (months ago), and I don’t see any possible scenario for it to fall out of it. On this matter, yesterday I received my new TRN Sea Serpent, and after much consideration... I’d like...

    This is really nice to know! I always thought the Delci was a steal, but knowing it competes against IEMs that cost 3-4 times as much is truly impressive. By the way, since I’ve noticed your signature and your apparent interest in Tanchjim, may I ask if you’ve had the chance to try the new...

    If Kefine had priced the Delci above $75 (es. $150-$200), fewer reviewers and people in general would have been as positive about it. Beyond a certain price point, a certain level of quality is expected. Consequently, fewer people would have purchased the IEM from a ‘newcomer’ company and would...

    Definitely worth considering if you didn’t like the Conch due to its emphasis in the treble region. Even in its default switch configuration, it tends to be natural-warm. Additionally, the treble can be increased or reduced even further using switches. The same can be done for the bass. Also...

    I like these ultra budget suggestions coming one after another. I’ll give my two cents (also, for me, it’s that time of the week): the TRN Orca is a budget monster! With the current sales on AliExpress, it can be bought for around 15 dollars (12 dollars if you use coins too). I wholeheartedly...

    They are potentially useful too! "Where did I put my Dita Project M again?!" *Proceed to turn off the lights*. Suddenly, radiation-green rays sparkle in the corner of the room. "I paid you $325 - you are not going anywhere!" Don't even mention it. I hope the ear tips will make a difference! 😄

    I don’t know if it’ll change your opinion of the Medusa, but TRN T-Tips tend to exalt the highs and decrease the bass quite significantly. So, if you feel the Medusa lacks body for your taste, I highly suggest switching to another pair of tips—even the stock black TRN tips should do! I’ve tried...

    Thank you, my friend. I decided to do this comparison in the first place because I thought it might be of interest to you and some other people on the thread! (So, mainly, early adopter - and lover - of the ST7). Also, as a side note, the Sea Serpent modular cable is excellent; it’s slightly...

    Medusa VS ST7 The Medusa is a natural-bright leaning IEM, while the ST7 has a natural-warm sound. In my opinion, the Medusa sounds overall more “natural and energetic,” whereas the ST7 has a more peculiar quality—perhaps best described as “warm-ethereal”. Both models offer an incredible...

    Sure, my friend. I didn’t mean to refer to you personally; I was speaking more generally! Anyway, if you want to have more feedback available to support your choice, canceling the order and putting the decision on hold is the most reasonable thing to do. Especially because, in future batches...

    Just wait. You haven't seen anything yet... Hold my popcorn! 🍿 Nice point! I was about to post about the “scratches issue” today. Yesterday, on X, I saw some Japanese reviewers who received their units with scratches. It appears that they are caused indirectly by the sponges where the IEMs...

    Potentially interesting, especially if the price will be around $140, as they previously stated in their 2024 lineup announcement.

    While I’m not an expert, I believe it should be okay. In my understanding, the issue would have arisen if you had used a 3.5mm female to 4.4mm male adapter. EDIT: Anyway, I suggest waiting for an answer from someone more competent than me in "electrical circuitry"! 😉 EDIT 2: Safe: Using a...

    I believe it would be more accurate to say that they used the Conch with black nozzles as a base, but they slightly increased the bass while also reducing the treble by just the right amount. It remains bright-leaning at its core, but it’s significantly more mature and refined compared to the...

    Nope. There are no swappable nozzle filters. Therefore, just one tuning.
