Dunu, Fidue, and the new KZ stuff.

All winners!

 
Are you getting DN2000J?  I'm afraid it's going to be too bright.  Will wait for Paul's review, but I think from some impressions I read it could be too bright for my taste...  KZ - 100%!  Fidue, might take a little while, but I should get a chance to preview A73 sometime in a near future. Do you think it's on par with A83?  Better?
 
Btw, congrats on the front page!  Keep them coming brother!!!

The dn2000j is a little rich for my blood. I'm swamped right now with review gears so I'm going to lay back and wait for initial reviews to come in on the 2000j

The A73 is an attached cable, and better ergonomic fit. Still no chin slider (grrrrrrrrr)

The sound is humongous with a bass tilt but not as severe as the A83.

It's a more neutral and audiophile version of the A83 IMHO.

I don't want to jump the gun, but the A73 might be the best sounding IEM I have. The extension, separation and balance is amazeballs.



My new mantra for when I'm tempted:


At least the a73 is pricey enough not to be an impulse purchase for me


I'm with you Mr Trev. Delta + Hyperion bargain pack ftw!!!

I have no doubt the trinity stuff going to be really good, but I think even sensai Brooko will vouch for the A83, and soon enough the A73. After hearing the A83 I couldn't wait and had to spring for the A73. No regrets either that's for sure.

I don't think I'm going to make it until my Delta gets here. Hisoundfi is dragging me down a Black Hole of "must haves".
 
Must.....Resist.....

Maybe when I'm gainfully employed again, I'll give A73 a shot! I have been curious to try out A83 :wink_face:

Surprised I haven't seen this thread before. Subbed.

Yes, the ED9 and ATE are awesome bargains for $10 each. Ditch the ATE memory foam tips though, they kill treble detail significantly.
Welcome friend, we've been waiting for you. Now, show us your lab (not labias)

I've actually been meaning to ask Hi what tips he's using but now I guess I'm asking both of you

 Guess a set of ED9 tips would work eh?

The ED9 tips work very well on the ATE.
 
JVC spiral dots end up being a bad fit, as the nozzle pushes itself nearly all the way through the tips.
 
Those Lunashop red core tips should work. Sony hybrids maybe.

Hahaha it's too embarrassing.
 
Two 5 drawer rubbermaid stands filled to capacity, plus a large brown box, plus anything visible on display on stands.
 
Despite all of that, only the AKG 7XX, Dunu Titan 1, and these new KZs get any play time. It's just wrong. lol. Only the strong survive.

I use Sony hybrids on the ed9 with brass filters. That's an epic combination.

I use wide bore tips (Lunashops red/gray) with the ATE. The ATE really needs wide bore tips to sound it's best.

Me thinks the stock PFE tips are the widest I have. You tried them yet?
