If you like the warm sound of tube amplifiers, the Heaven V Aging is a nice IE. Especially in combination with Comply foamtips for some extra low frequency response.

Received my H7 today. Definitely in retail packaging and looks brand new.

Just started to use it, and I realize that for one certain song, for years, I wondered why the singer mispronounced a word. Today, listening to that song with H7, I realize he pronounced that word correctly all along. My cheapo IEMs were distorting the sound to an extent that it seems mispronounced!

It's not as bassy as my JLab J6, but I guess that's what the Adagio 3 is for. I should receive it in the next few days.

Nothing fancy... Just my iPhone 5.

I also listened to my favorite Phantom of the Opera tracks and this time I'm hearing extra words! It's very subtle, words I didn't know was there! The singer basically muttered very softly and I never noticed them before but now it's there! Amazing!

The H7 is not going to be my BOOM BOOM BOOM IEM when I want something bass heavy, but for vocals, it is much better than any I've tried.

And now I understand why anyone needs more than one IEM :wink:

The amount of distortion your previous IEMs made, and the extra words that came with your new H7, even podcasts and audiobooks sound interesting again for a re-listen

If anyone is traveling through KLIA Airport in Malaysia, and has a few hours to waste, the electronics shop has the full range of Final Audio Design Headphones & Earphones, ready to audition.

Just found the solution for the uncomfy stock tips for my Heaven V. Forget the stock tips, forget the SpinFit tips and forget the comply foams. I got InAir Foam tips which have wide bore and which are bit more sturdy than the Comply tips. Plus they have 5 pairs in the box and cost less than the Comply Foams. These do not make compromises to the sound quality and readjusting my IEMs inmy ears are now history. Highly recommended.

Which Comply tips did you use prior to the InAir's
