The discovery-gaming thread!

I would recommend to try SIFU, impressive OST, beautiful gameplay.

Ive been enjoying it with my OH700 from ORIVETI (review is close to be posted). The hits and punches with the subbass performance on the 700... lovely

OH700Vb is a lovely set brother. I love that IEM

Since you're sensitive to upper mid and treble sibilance, have you considered the Volume's goth-sibling, the Twilight? It's my favorite warm IEM that doesn't make vocalists sound like they're singing from under a heavy blanket.



This is one of the tracks I use for testing vocal sibilance. I also use the 10sec mark to test mid bass impact, but pretty much the first minute is very electrifyingly sparkly between the female and male vocalists. The Twilight is my least sparkly IEM with this track.

So the Twilight is the undisputed single DD for warm/smooth I reckon?

In other news, gonna see how my old R3 saber compares to the 2022 version when it arrives, I think that red color on the 2022 would look real nice paired with the blue Falcon Ultra. Also waiting on the MG100, the wheels are in motion.

Do you EQ the Gaea or do you just embrace its shout?

Wear it deeper so that the ear “fin” hook against the concha, and the shout and edginess is mostly controlled (but still a very aggressive and dynamic sound signature). Interestingly, foam does not work if they push the IEM away from the ear concha.

The Gaea gives me this vibe

Ooh, any graphs? I looked briefly but didn’t see any.

Timsok is supersmooth it is like digital filter on iem. What is interested in direct to ea 1000 is how much ea 1000 brighter is and still lose on resolution separation ,detail.

Wow you really love Timsok.

Simgot … Timsok. Tongue twister, isn’t it

I own several iems, and the Timsok is probably the best value iem I have in the $500 range.

That's why I cced Leo! Hopefully he has a graph.

I am no way qualified to talk about 'undisputed emperor' based on my limited experience of hearing iems of that quality. I can only say it's the best iem I have experienced, but again that doesn't say much given my very very modest selection of iems owned.

I was half-jesting but with the knowledge that it's (single-dd beast) is a judgement of the much-more-iem-experienced and qualified Leonardfd.

He wrote recently as well that it was his fav single DD iem.

I do believe, however, the newer versions from 634ears are even better.

But yeah, over to @Leonarfd . See Leo, if only that review of yours existed, I could just throw that link and be done with it.

Haha, am reading in that thread now. Whenever an IEM is described as lush and organic I’m all ears.

I need an IEM to bring me into this world:

Agree there, my favorite single DD for warm organic sound. When I got it I wrote down in my impression: sounds like a Penon Serial with better highs and tighter bass, but still retain the more musical and analog side I love in the Serial.

Ooh, any graphs? I looked briefly but didn’t see any.

This is with a harder wood, some changes if you get one with metal back or a softer wood like mine.

I own several iems, and the Timsok is probably the best value iem I have in the $500 range.

Also a excellent sounding single DD, little more resolving than Miroak-2. But not as fun and engaging, very subjective ofc.

I actually sold Timsok TS-316 as I lost seal all the time due to short nozzles, if not would have been here still.

I see TS-316 as a better Simgot EA1000, slightly better technicalities. More sub bass extension and easier upper mids, better for my taste.

Thanks for the graph, that is some nice treble extension for a dynamic.

Tigerism has another single DD, for $750 lol. Hope to see some graphs for that come out. I need to test my Tigerism Octave with tips other than SpinFits, maybe that’ll chill out the 4k region and then they’ll be keepers.
