I am not a die hard CFA fan but during my head-fi journey, I found myself sometimes coming back to buy CFA IEM. When Campfire Audio was established back in 2015 and released Lyra, I was very impressed with the material being used to build the earphone body (the ceramic chamber) and the ALO...

I auditioned the Bonneville a few weeks ago, then I sold my Cascara, got the Bonneville and I am very satisfied at the moment.

Yes, I read your comments and know that some users here listen to their ZX707 with different ways. For me, I just use the stock Walkman Music Player app, with heavy EQing (9 presets for my 9 IEMs) and also with Vinyl effect enabled in the EQ app. I never do wifi streaming or use other functions...

It sounds to me it is about the same as the last firmware, haven't detected a big difference yet, I might need more audition to verify.

Everything is fine except the lock screen. If waking from sleep and slide to open, it is not responsive and I need to do it 3 - 4 times to unlock and get to the main screen of my ZX707.

New firmware version 2.00.02 is released, this includes the Android 13 upgrade.

Anyone has the impression about the PW Audio Ribbon Series (Genesis, Just Dance & JDG)?

When the ZX707 was on 1.00, on my all IEMs the Walkman delivered very punchy and deep bass (you know, the Sony signature bass sound). After my ZX707 was upgraded to firmware 1.01 this beautiful bass was gone. Bass is still here but I strongly sense that it is tamed a lot and that deep punchy...

I just file a request to Sony again, requesting them to restore the bass timbre of firmware ver. 1.00 in the next firmware update. After auditioning the ZX707 with all my IEMs for several months, I still feel that the power and quantity of the bass is still not up to the level that firmware...

During the on-going burn-in, the bass of the MEXT opened up around the 270 hours mark. It is now more forward, goes really deep and starts to slam really hard. The bass is very well controlled and does not bleed into the mids. The whole sound signature of the MEXT is now filled with more warmth.

Same here, I AB the MEST MKII and MEXT for several times, and finally I made the decision to buy MEXT, I reckon the treble is more natural on MEXT. MEST MKII to me sounds a bit artificial although it performs better than MEXT on technical basis. After 200 hours of burn-in, the treble of MEXT...

@Xinlisupreme What a nice series of IEMs that you got! But sorry I don't have any one of your gears to compare with Stage 3.

You can saved 10 sets of EQ in ZX707. I have done the test and 10 is the most we can save.

After testing with my IEMs for a week, I can nearly confirm that the sub-bass is back on firmware 1.02.00 but still not to the magnitude of the 1st firmware ver. 1.00. However, I found that the mids and high is improved on 1.02.00 (sound density increases, more solid than 1.00. The high and mids...

Glad to hear this and happy for you! Thanks for the verification.

I just updated this latest firmware 1.02.00 on my ZX707 and notice the following improvements: - The reaction problem of the side buttons seems is fixed, no more irresponsive error (there was a delay action when pressing on the side buttons, such as when I pressed the play button, it takes more...

I would say after 200 hours of burn-in, my Stage 3 has been lifted up to another level of performance: - Extremely good extension on the treble - Excellent coherency, I feel like hearing a earphone built with 1 very high definition DD - Micro-details are superb - A more holographic sound stage...

It should be detective, I listened to a demo at a local head-fi shop, its bass slammed really hard and deep with fine texture.

I have got my pair of Stage 3 burned in for almost 85 hours and it has opened up a lot and sounds coherent and amazing! For the first 40 hours it sounded dull and boring and the mids and high sit behind the muddy bass, but I could still hear the extremely detailed high and mids produced by the...

I owned a B1 back in the 2019-2020 but my ZX507 did not drive them well even with 4.4mm output (the high and mids were grainy, imaging not impressive at all). I sold it but I started to miss it because of its sturdy build and beautiful design of the earphone body, and also the beautiful C106...
