    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Would like to add to the impressions on the Alien Secret qcc010 iems. I'm kinda getting used to the elevated sub-base region, but it is still too much for my taste.(I like the sound of the trn t200 more) what is good though is the fact that it works with every tip you can through at these, and...

    dunno, I ordered them at the beginning of 2020. really like the sound when equalized, very detailed, spacious and airy, with very authoritative bass and overall sound.

    hey everyone. got my Alien Secret iems 3 days ago. intiial impressions are as follows: build quality and comfort WAY above the QCY T5. the case feels more solid and looks good. so do the iems - pretty well finished and quite small. comfort is otherwordly - stays in my ears with every tip...

    got a pair of QCY T5. they seem quite ok, but to me they sound a tad bit bass heavy. on the other hand they respond VERY well to equalising and sound wonderful to me when equalised. there is one problem though - on pc, the volume is very low, even on max setting

    not really sold on the tunability though - I need to use it from pc and the phone and I'm not sure it retains the tune when disconnected from the device with the tunning ap and connected to a pc for example.... I'm quite inclined to try the galaxy Buds +, as people seem to think it is the most...

    I can't get a chance of hearing the l2p without buying it first. in that regard, oluvs vids are godsend. it's pretty simple really - if it sounds too different from the original recording, it does not reproduce the music as it was intended. and I do like my stuff neutral and natural sounding...

    Just downloaded some intel Bluetooth audio driver on my PC so that it supports APTX now, and BOY does it make a difference with the old aptx kz Bluetooth cable connected to the V1 KZ ZS5. to anyone who uses PC as a source for their aptx TWS, try it! you won't regret.

    I mean't that I got it cheaper (~33$) than the current asking price of the gt1 plus (47$). also, on taht note, seems like there are two different versions of white alien secrets - one that is all white and butt ugly and one that looks much closer to the promo pics. I saw a review on ali that no...

    That os a good price. anything over 25-30 for those seems like a no go. I bought my alien secrets for way less and those seem to be better than the gt1 plus in every way (except for that ugly white plastic )

    I have a very limited experience on TWS iems, so I can't say for sure but there is a certain thing called the "law of diminishing returns" and it is true for everything, including iems. look at scarbir.com for some good TWS reviewes, you might like some of the options listed there. there is...

    are u using Iphone? try the Fiil T1x. it's $50 on amazon at the moment. If you are using an android phone, bomaker Sifi seems to be a good choice.

    Short answer would be "not really" but a longer answer would be "it depends". if for example, a TWS uses AAC and SBC standards, if the manufacturer of the dap decuded to properly implement thise two codecs, it could be better than android smartphones. AAC from android is hit and miss, and apple...
