  There are two threads about it.

 
Hey dude, have your DUNUs been sent out yet??
 
Apparently MP4Nation have had them out of stock for a while. Been no word on shipping and my order still says Processing.

Yeah having a bad fit on very good IEMs is the worst buzz kill ever!
 
Still to this day I have to say though that the best fit I've ever got from an IEM was with my long gone Yamaha EPH-100. May they rest in peace.

The Yamaha's are indeed a great IEM with a comfy fit. Unfortunately I sold them along with a couple other IEM's to gather the money for my Monster Miles Davis Trumpets, and they ended up not fitting me, so my fiance uses them instead.

Ah right, so you basically did the same thing as me.
 
I was looking at the Trumpets the same time I found the Yams. They look like they provide a similar comfy fit but I guess I was wrong.

No Sir. Both use similar microdrivers, but the nozzle is ever so slightly larger on the Yamaha's, with better tips, and this makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE in fit and comfort and snugness. My fiance's tiny ears though, the Trumpets sit perfectly in her ears. She loves them and regularly taunts me by saying it's an incredible sound i'm missing lol

Yup, they're in the country and should arrive today or tomorrow. Took a long time for delivery to begin though.

Ah wow, ok that sounds promising.
 
On the contrast my girlfriend is happy with the cheapest ear-buds she can get.
 
She's even happy to keep using the stock Apple ear-buds instead of the Delta's I got her for Xmas. Dont even get me started lol

Nice one mate!
 
I'll be keeping my eye out for your impressions since mine havent even been sent out yet for some reason. Might chase it up with MP4Nation.
 
Kinda interested to know if you'll get the Chinese or the International version.

  Well, they just arrived... 14 pairs of tips including the ones already on them.

 
Wow, thats quick! Congrats mate, when did you get the shipped notification?
 
Cannot wait for your impressions, especially on how they sound with Trance out of the box. I'll be looking out for them in the DUNU thread. :)

Yeah I think it's between the IM70 and the MA750. Really not sure which one to get out of the two. Anyone heard both that could help me?


I have them both and I like them both IMO they have similar bass quantity and quality wise, not too much different here, mid on MA750 is recessed compared to IM70 you can hear big different here, treble on MA750 is extended a bit better but not much.

Sweet Helium of the Gods! i just got my OM Audio InEarPeace hybrids, and though I'm still early in the listening process, so I'm withholding in depth impressions until I feel the LF driver has burned in sufficiently, I will say this..This is a hybrid DONE RIGHT! This is a hybrid with lively mids (not sucked out and dry). This is a hybrid that reminds me A LOT of a more refined JVC FXT90. If there was one IEM I could match this with early in the process, it would be the FXT90. The synergize very well with my Sony NWZ E-475, but really open up and show their magic when plugged into my iPod Touch
 
So far they definitely reach well beyond their $150.00 asking price. 
 
More to come...

  If Dsnuts has good things to say about the Carbo Doppio bass I'm buying them. I'm not a basshead but same sort of levels as the Bassos would be ideal.


I PMed you about the bass on the Doppios but I am gonna say these do not have the bass levels of the Bassos. After all those are called bassos for a reason..To my recollection I do believe the Bassos are the only real bass emphasized in ears Zero Audio makes. The other in ears all does bass very well but it is the bassos that have that low end fulness and warmth to the sound because of the low end emphasis.
 
What the Doppios have are more geared toward your high end listeners. These kinda remind me of the Alpha Dog sound.. Very similar in approach and tonality.. Similar type of tuning with that imagery where neutrality and detail is at the fore front of the sound tuning.
 
Most of my in ears have bass in one form or another and to me I am happy to get a neutrally tuned dual BA that does what BAs do so well on these in ears. There is not a detail or a sound effect from a recording these in ears will not pick up including the bass/ sub bass. But the way the bass is integrated is a part of the whole picture and does not stick out as the main attraction there for.. Lower mids to the upper mids have an open clarity to the sound that is unmatched on these in ears..Every form of treble notes comes out with a sheen, depth and a quality seldom heard on any earphone for that matter as well. These are the strengths of the Doppio.  Both the S2 and the MA750s have more bass emphasis over the Doppios both being dynamics... So for guys wanting/needing that bass these will not be a good options for you..
 
With this being said. Guys that value vocal and instrument performance.. These in ears are every bit as transparent as the much praised full sized Alpha Dogs I was listening to at Can Jam, Of course that is just my opinion. Lol. .Rock, pop,Jazz, Classical, Vocal, Blues, Sweeping orchestral scores sound like how they were meant to be heard with these in ears. Using my X3 the bass is much fuller as the sound signature of the X3 has the bass over the DX50 and therefor is a great match for the Doppios.

Would you say they are a better TDK BA-200?? similar in performance and bass response?

I want something that can be worn straight down comfortably and has similar bass levels but is better treble and mids wise for female vocals and instruments in my beloved K-Pop.
