It's a real shame Penon do not do a UK tour of the Penon Voltage. Real original Penon customers, who have been so loyal to Penon, have no chance to hear the Voltage. Seems there is a select group getting the chance to hear the voltage. I'm disappointed with Penon. As I am close to the afterlife...

Although Penon's higher tier is beyond this old man's pocket, I still have a few superb IEM's from Penon. They must be my favourites because they are at the fore of my rotation. I somehow got a 'perfect' copy of the 10th Anniversary and find it beautiful. The Serial, with some wellie and power...

IMR were impossible....but in many ways Bob was very kind and his aftercare was second to none. He just couldn't deliver on schedule and always added massive helpings of BS and lies. Shame because I have many excellent IEMs from him....all with a sprinkling of Drama as seasoning.

No VIP mailer yet for Voltage....so everything seems to be conjecture. It seems some have already bought it. As a Penon customer from early times it would be nice to receive a really good VIP offer. It does seem, though, that Penon prices may start to inflate, which is sad for those of us who...

I've been using the ISN Neo 3 with my Cayin RU6 dongle and my Pixel 7 Pro phone for a while now. With a couple of other phones the background noise made the RU6 unusable, but the pairing of the Neo 3 with the RU6:and Pixel 7 Pro is stunning. The Neo 3s are my goto at the moment. The staging with...

With my Penon 10th Anniversary IEMs (different IEMs may need different settings) I use Bass .7, mids .3 and treble I leave on 0 because the EST treble on the 10th doesn't need any changes.

I cant really fault the HiBy R6 iii hardware. It seems a bit too pedantic to me to over amplify very minor issues. On the software side, Joe Blogg's dynamics HiBy DRX10K plugin is a gamechanger. To be able to change the dynamics of the R6iii systemwide is a game changer, and gives the R6iii the...

They do suit the Neo 3, and really suit the Penon Fan 2. With the Cayin RU6 and even the cheap BGVP T01s simple USB DAC (works extraordinarily well) really suits, as a cheap option, with it's really small form, the ISN Neo 3. The BGVP T01s is just tiny and only just loses to the staging of the...

I've had the RU6 since it first came out. With my Xiaomi phone there was so much noise it was unusable. Same with an older Sony phone, so I stuck with my DAPs. Just picked up a Google Pixel phone and got the dust gathering Cayin out of the drawer......wow quite taken aback, no noise and a clean...

It really makes me sad to see AI used to reword reviews. The use of language, adjectives, metaphors, similes, etc etc are an art form and creative skill....like literature. Not impressed at all.

It's hard to give a recipe for musicality. Just like a great violinist.. ..what creates a Yehudi Menuhin? There are many ingredients definitely including timbre.....and also tone, dynamics and with IEM's that have EST's (maybe not all) a fluid/liquid treble, organic sound. Bass that allows...

Really great photos. After a long time with the TSMR X, I hold it in the same esteem as the Penon 10th. Not quite as musical, but such good bass on 011, great airiness, . Highs are very different to the EST highs, but nevertheless very detailed for me. Nothing fatiguing at all. I like it a lot...

The ISN Neo 3 is considerably more enjoyable than my Sound Rhyme SR5...to me of course. The SR5 is a good IEM though, but doesn't have that 'Je ne sais quoi', 'for me' though.
