    Asus Xonar U7 DAC/AMP Impressions Thread

    Just got the U7 as the last component of a full new computer rig. Assumed that 7.1 means I could probably run a 2.1 setup too but not sure if this is the case?   I'm currently using JBL LSR 305s as 2.0 with onboard audio. "might" consider adding a subwoofer, but man, these things are huge...

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    Really really Brief Updates from Taiwan! Last 2 days, awesome place!   Sound wise - it's pretty DARN awesome. It's still as smooth as butter, the vocals are so alluring. Everything feels as it is. Everything I wished for I guess? Comfort wise - still having some issues, but I'll work it out...

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    Thanks for the pictures, they are really descriptive!   Yeah, I'll try to see if it helps, though - I've been trying to do just that. The flap behind my 'crus' isn't alot of space and the shell itself doesnt stick in all the way. Maybe the impression didn't cover there, I don't know. Could use...

        sorry for the messy background! yes, the ear mold impressions were taken with a bite block.         Thanks! I actually saw that link while typing my post, so it made me think if it's a size/fit/depth issue. I'm not particularly sure. I've held in, twisted it - don't think it can...

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    Finally got my K10s! Love the sound already. Kudos to the Noble Team and all the email exchanges. You guys have been very patient in answering my questions! I do have a pretty disconcerting issue though...   Well, I'm not sure if it's just getting used to my first ciem, but the insertion depth...

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

      Appreciate the share man. Coming from a Sansa clip zip, I hope the DX90 or X5 will be a worth it upgrade for the price. Marginal improvements just doesn't cut it for me. I'm hearing conflicting impressions though, DX90 warmer than X5, X5 warmer than DX90. DX90 more laid back, X5 more laid...

    Really curious about the DX90 vs X5 too, for K10 that is.

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    I'm dying on my wait here, sent my K10 impressions for shipping a month and 2 days ago heh. Would be totally awesome if the procedure's status has stage updates like shipping, I'll be checking them everyday like an addict. That said, how's mine coming? ;)   Oh btw, my question on the connector...

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

      Oh looks good. I thought there was soldering involved..can't do any of that. This looks like you connect the end of the stock cable to this piece, and this piece to the IEM?

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    While I'm waiting on mine to come back, can I ask. What kind of connectors are on the CIEMs? By connectors I don't mean flushed or recessed. I meant whether it is a right angle bend or straight out? I read through countless pages and I recalled this topic mentioned,   1) the plastic thing near...

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

      Don't start! If you love portability, for the love of having nothing to bring along but your iPhone don't! Cus the K10 sounds so immersive, so wide, so smooth, so clear amp-ed. It was a huge difference. Having said that I don't want to bring an amp around either...maybe a X5 player is good...

    Noble K10 vs JH Roxannes

    I listened to the Roxanne's and the K10 makes the Roxannes sound muddy. Comparatively the Roxannes are a step up from the JH16 but the K10 is on another class. It felt like putting butter in my ears..so smooth. The Roxannes are very engaging and energizing, but I don't see myself using it for...

    Just got my impressions done, waiting for tomorrow morning to ship! Thanks Wizard and Brennan. Just asking, what's the format to write the address for a China? Never shipped anything before and the address looks really long :)

    Unique Melody Mentor debut in Tokyo e-earphone festival

    Wanna ask, how does the Mentor stack up against the JH13fp, since it's the most raved, aside from roxannes now. Or perhaps, the JH10x3, since I'm half deaf and JH suggested either a JH5 or JH10x3, 1-sided stereo.   I gave the mentors a demo and I liked it, very lush mids, great for vocals...

    JH Audio JH-13 PRO impressions thread

    Would wanna ask,   would anyone have a guess how the UM Mentor would stack up against the JH13fp? I'm offered the opportunity to buy half a UM Mentor, but there isn't much reviews and comparisons in yet

    Lost my SM3! Replace with CIEM?

    Bumps...Anyone?   Don't suspect many people having much experiences with having both sides of a JH5 or JH10x3 on one side but, any guesses how that would sound? Also, how would a JH5 compare to an SM3? I really liked the airy feel of the SM3. I wouldn't call it soundstage myself as...well...

    Lost my SM3! Replace with CIEM?

    Hey guys, mentioned in the JH13pro appreciate thread I lost my SM3. Being curious about the JH16 since I auditioned them 2 years ago, I'm keen to check out JH as a replacement.   Important note I'm deaf on the right side, so I can only listen to one side of an IEM.   I was told to ask if...

    JH Audio JH-13 PRO impressions thread

    Angie responded and said that they could create a stereo piece for one ear. JH5's or the JH10x3. Does that mean 4 driver for the JH5? 2 low 2 high? and then 6 piece on the JH10x3? 2 low 2 mid 2 high?   I was only looking at a one-sided JH-13, cause I heard all the rave reviews about it. I'd...

    JH Audio JH-13 PRO impressions thread

          Don't look like it's a one-sided JH13..rather it's a 12 driver piece..so quite a different beast!   Today I hunted for my note 2's earpiece. God the sound, I had a throbbing headache and nausea about 5-10mins of listening. Tried to replicate the sm3, stuffed the earpiece deep and...
