Vsonic GR07 MK2 - stunning new cable! | bio-cel tech IEM | now with review - see 2nd post - Page 49

can't believe my eyes .. the re 262 is going for $99!! ..thats about as hi-fidelity value can get ..or may be if they think of bringing down the re 272 to 150 dollars ...but I think i ll wait for that ..

The MH1 with it's best synergy, which for me so far is Neutron player on my smartphone with the bass shelf -4 and treble shelf +4, connected to my iBasso external amp, is still definitely something special in itself.

 

After you remove the horrible bass, you can notice the mids and highs are something special, it's like a smooth rainbow up there, vocals are present, highs are present yet inoffensive, it's animated and fun, quite fresh, quite perfect for the average smartphone user.  You can listen to music for hours and enjoy it, that's what they want.

 

At least after you equalize it, it's pretty nice I think.  Kindof ironic since I hardly ever equalize anything, and the hype so far says it has some kind of perfect FR?, I don't know if they're hyping, love low quality b4ss b4ss b4ss b4ss, or they're honestly just tone-deaf.

I should have been more precise. I have absolutely no doubt that the re272 is technically superior on levels the mh1(c) will never even dream of reaching.

My question was more to the sound signature in regards to the balance of subbass, bass, mids, and highs. If you were to put percentages on the focus of each part of the spectrum for each of the two iems, what  would they be?
(An arbitrary example of what I mean is 35:20:25:20)

nope , given that their overall signature has often been compared to the se 535.. I don't think i should bleed out sweat to find one for audition ....and the se 535 sounds more 'dynamicise' than 'armaturer' to me ..so i ll be more than happy to skip the 2six2

the re 272  haunts my iem world a lot.....any news on the re400/re 600 launch ?

that would be somthing like this

 : bass

   :mids

  :treble

lol. unfortunately it doesn't.

I'm a numbers guy

do you mind using the numbers as I described? (subbass:bass:mids:high)

or two sets of four pictures comparing those categories for the two?

And again. I'm NOT talking about quality.

Interesting review. The GR07 has always interested me, it has a dynamic driver, it reportedly has great timbre, an even frequency response across the spectrum (including the subbass area), warm sound, big soundstage and good instrument separation. What kept me from buying them were the mixed reports concerning dynamic range. Did you find these lacking in dynamics?

I am an accountant, Im tryin to forget numbers atleast during the weekends .. dont torture me please.. 

the sub bass is nothing with the re 272, nothin as far as i remember, mid-bass is just there not to call it lacking .. to me the whole bass sounds thin and recessed ..i think you wont really see it happening - just like the picture i put up .. i dont think you have seen that before - its beef ularthiyathe, a keralite malabar delicacy

the mids are slightly dry, not very much forward, but forward still in comparison to MH1c and a tad bit thin, they are very clinical sounding though like the highs ..no reference to the picture or may be I forgot the connection .

the highs are impeccable refined like arnold with cigar .. superb and full of technical power

as far as quantity is concerned .. dont remember to be honest but hope my explanation might help

Thank you. that was very well put. You've pretty much described the quantity.

Unfortunately, the first sentence sealed my opinion of the 272. I'm a subbass lover.

since we are going off topic here! ..PMd!

Actually both of your examples describe dynamic range, it's the difference between the softest and the loudest sound even when both are produced at the same time. High dynamic range makes music allot more exciting and engaging to my ears. It's not like there are no other interesting choices in the near future (GR08, FXZ100 if it's not V shaped, and a few new dual micro drivers), i'd just like to avoid buying something while it's in FOTM mode ;).
