Speak of the devil. It's early, but I sorta love this iem. Very impressed. AFul fixed their 5-6k peaks and bass. The graph matches up to what I want so gud. This thing is very impressive.Nice graph on the Explorer too, sheesh.

The Starfield and JD7 are a tie for me but Starfield won points for nostalgia.I'm surprised to see the Starfield so high and higher than Zero Red even. And it makes me sad to see my beloved Volume so low![]()

Happy days! May I suggest something quite extreme since you love these so much? Get another pair and keep them somewhere nice and safe for when these current ones sing their last note. I know I'd do just that if I found a set I loved so so so much.Got my babies back!!!
The only negative (well, other than the expense, obviously...) is that this replacement set is an older model so it uses a QDC connector rather than the flat 2-pin that later versions of the MkI implemented.
NBD in the grand scheme of things.
I am beyond grateful to have these back in my ears.
I can't believe how much they were missed for the 6 days I was without them.
Praying that nothing happens to this set as they might be difficult to source in the future.

Oh my, great idea and I'll definitely have a go at it later. Will be tough to rank them, but trying and failing is better than not trying.. or is it?cross post from the ranking thread but I finally sat down and listed every IEM I have heard. Was a fun process and one that got me thinking about the hobby and where to go from here, I suggest it!
Top 4 are things I still own. The rest has been sold, returned or retired.

Wow congratulations, lots of time went into making 20 reviews, I'm on my 5th. This is a gorgeous pic of the EM6L! And awesome news about the DaVinci and especially ZMF! Very interested in both.
Well here it is, my 20th review! This one is for the Simgot EM6L Phoenix (Head-fi and blog). I know I'm a bit late to the review train (there's already over 30 reviews here on Head-fi) but I think it's a great iem in the ~$100 price bracket and it's my favorite Simgot tuning to date. Thanks to everyone who has encouraged me and shown me love on my review journey. I have some exciting things coming in the next few weeks, including the new Dunu DaVinci and I'll be reviewing my first full sized headphones courtesy of ZMF.
Godspeed! (waving a handkerchief at the station,watching as the train picks up speed)All aboard the Aful hype train![]()

I hear it (what I think as BA timbre - a metallic smear sort of thing) even in aful P8. Especially when I go from a lengthy session on the single DD wonder that is Miroak-II.. From initial OOTB listening, perhaps maybe a nitpick would be some BA timbre for acoustic instruments.
Damn dude congrats! I would love to listen and review a ZMF, they are on my endgame list for over ears. Great pic for the review too!

I recommend it! I think the QT-X may slide into number 2 as well with some more time, was nice to realize that as I made it. I will now have a list going forward, via my notes app.Oh my, great idea and I'll definitely have a go at it later. Will be tough to rank them, but trying and failing is better than not trying.. or is it?
This dude. For 120. Just like wow.Bass. MagicOne has passable bass but can’t get my blood pumping when listening to “epic soundtrack”, but this one can do that easily. Like others have said, I think this is the best bass AFUL has ever achieved in their IEMs.
So, the choice is simple to me:
- Want QDC tuning and “kilobuck-like” resolution? P8 (you will trade off bass quantity and midrange naturalness)
- Want great tuning and gentle mid-centric signature? MagicOne
- Want some of magic one signature with bass? Explorer
I can’t recommend P5 for any use caee (sorry aful)
This dude. For 120. Just like wow.. Very impressive. So many great things. I’m kinda in love. But early.

Definitely. As of now suffice it to say hold on to your wallets. It’s all tunings but there is a case for this to at least be the best Aful product especially in a value proposition.Haha. Sweet . Pl don't forget the hydro, relentless comparisons of course.
Have you seen any other graphs from the brand that does the Miroak?I hear it (what I think as BA timbre - a metallic smear sort of thing) even in aful P8. Especially when I go from a lengthy session on the single DD wonder that is Miroak-II.
Am sure the 634ears thread in the forum will be able to help you out. I haven't yet ventured into noticing, deciphering graphs, so I don't actively seek em. Though perhaps i should; have gone with reviewers observations thus farHave you seen any other graphs from the brand that does the Miroak?
