    Earbuds Round-Up

    https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256803506402619.html This was the driver recommended to me by some friends to start with. It's sage advice.

    Earbuds Round-Up

    I’m going to parrot the advice of others, but I think you are asking a bit much from an earbud :) Most people have actually chosen IEMs as Their Way. Not us of course, but you may find that to be true for yourself as well… With that said, you can DIY and earbud for that money that will compete...

    Oh, he's the earbuds ranking guy! That's pretty cool.

    A first post and already a mini review on a hotly contested new bud. You may want to hang around a bit first and let us get to know you and your background. Just saying....

    Then my apologies @RikudouGoku. It read like you were trying to sell people stuff under false pretense and it did frustrate me. There's a lot of that in audio and I don't like it for all for the obvious reasons. Since you seem to have actually had no ill intent, then it's my bad and I'm sorry...

    Of course I also didn’t sell the ST20 pro because I felt like the sound was so terrible it would be wrong to inflict it on others.

    This is exactly correct. If FiiO had make the claim I would have called it out as well. I never claimed that the nibs wouldn’t alter the sound. I’ve tuned to many earbuds to think that. I didn’t say that they would probably make it a bit brighter and change the shape of the treble. That you...

    I've had Kenyon on ignore for a long time, but Woody's post prompted me to look. When you read his post you can tell I've angered him but he fully agrees with me on the facts. I mean he's tried to change my argument and he also tries the red herring approach, but he fully agrees with me. An...

    Sorry that's what you got out of that whole thing. you should reread what I've written as your statements are factually incorrect. It could very easily be viewed in an entirely different light. I've gotten a few PMs saying the exact opposite thing... initially I was just hoping to correct an...

    I'm sure he fully understands that the 'diffuser' isn't diffusing as does everyone else at this point. I did say I'd be willing to give them an honest review. Since the maker and I are not buddies, you wouldn't get a falsely positive bias, but I'm sure the maker would fear a falsely negative...

    The point still is that they are not causing diffusion as claimed and even have some pseudo-trademark to make it seem like they were researched and in some way unique. The measurement say they make an already bright bud even brighter. Brighter headphone’s have been shown to have a more...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    I think we both agree that the advertising point is incorrect and an obvious false claim and that the dots do something. What are we disagreeing on? I'll explain my side even though I've gotten in trouble for it in the past. I'd rather be right and in trouble than than wrong and applauded...

    No Rayleigh scattering is going to even come close to mattering here--not that it even matters because that's not diffusion. Not that diffusion would even help in this circumstance and especially in the region of 10-20kHz and doubly so in an earbud shell. You won't be able to get around this...

    Those little globs are going to redirect audible sound waves just about as much as driving over a coin in the road is going to divert your car which is exactly why I used the analogy earlier. You can't get an even dispersement of elephants in a soda can because you can't get an elephant in a...

    Oh, if you guys want me to get my very sensitive hearing on a set of these and give you my honest opinion, I’d be glad to. My audiogram suggests my hearing is borderline flawless. I can show it to you if you need verification. I’d be thorough and honest you can rest assured. Just let me know.
