I see. So that's the importance of donut foams. Makes sense now that I think about it.

I bought a pair of sunnivas off of the head-fi classifieds and boy am I impressed. I have nowhere near the analytics listening skills of the average forum poster here, but they're pretty remarkable to my ears and I'm so happy such a great earbud exists. I've always been a casual good audio enjoyer, but I don't like wearing over the ear headphones all day. To have this kind of sound in such a comfortable form factor for me is amazing. Thanks to all the people on this thread whose posts helped me make a decision and pull the trigger.

I'll continue the hobby and can see how you go down the rabbit hole here...

Congrats and welcome to the rabbit hole! We've dug in very very deep

Congrats! Also, you nailed why I love earbuds. The tech is improving and it's very comfy here. Nothing clamping your head or sealing off your ear hole with silicon.

I am letting go of a one off Serratus if anyone interested. +2db midbass compared to OG Serratus tuning.

How do these compare to the Red Serratus in tuning, specs , etc?

That RU7 has such synergy with many of Jim's buds. Enjoy!

The RU7 is the only balanced dac/amp in my collection, and so far it sounds great in high gain and DSD128 setting: bass is full & punchy and the sound stage is quite wide. I have not tried other foams yet, Jim included stock medium density and low density foams (for classical & jazz & vocals), and I also have Hiegi full and donuts to try out, along with some other generic amazon foams
