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

    ah my assumptions were wrong. with out the 3d sound stage which is the main selling point of their products i see no reason to get the NEXT1.

    No idea about prototype. But i was told by the retailer NEXT1 is their flagship model the price confirms this too. LDAC isn't anything special or costly, we've seen cheap LDAC TWE from soundpeads. connection can be a issue with LDAC too. pretty sure they're not using a expensive higher model...

    its priced at $220 USD for the NEXT1. i think they're out of their minds charging this type of money for no stand out functions or sound. i was expecting even larger sound stage with more clarity given it's their "flagship". the Fiio FW5 with its dac and snapdragon sound looks to be a better...

    Any one here heard the Nuarl Next1 yet? I've asked our local stockist for an opinion and they've said wide sound stage is gone with out HDSS, sounds sibilance and thin, took me by surprise as Nuarl has put out great sounding earbuds. they recommended me my N10pro and was spot on with it's sound...

    saw this product few months ago on our australian dealer facebook page here is the full specs. https://www.facebook.com/earspantech/posts/416985999818143 it does have apt-X adaptive but i don't think its Sony hi-res certified like on that alibaba link in the video. the mifo S specs...

    so what's the verdict? fiio utws5 or the shure tw2 in sound quality? time to stop using the TWEs i reckon.

    Oriveti OV800 and O800 IEMs - The official thread

    How do the Oriveti compare to the moondrop line? i've tried the O800 and O400 the mids of the O800 are tuned very well, forward, lush and vocals sounds real but i feel the sub bass and the treble needed some boosting for extra detail. O400 just sounds thin with less resolution compared to it. i...

    so the Z7 currently is better than the M&D MW08S you mentioned previously?

    why not just buy a good $1000 iem and use something like a fiio utws3 or utws5 thats coming out soon?

    no the stock tips are made of soft foam which seems to leak bass for me. the tips they sent me are made of denser foam and feels much firmer. i post about it here: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/going-fully-wireless-iems-too-soon-or-are-we-there-yet.861024/page-1822#post-15988821

    what tips are you using? did you get the foam tips from Earspan? they changed the sound signature of the N10 pro quite a bit. my initial review of the N10 pro was similar to yours with bass lacking. but their sound stage is not just 3d warping around the head but wide as in vocals etc are...

    Nice write up! very detailed. you should cut and paste it in the Head Gear section. the N6 Pro2 do have more bass than the N10 Pro, i agree its more energetic and fast. I personally really like the Nuarl line. i think it deserves more recognition and people hearing them. would be interesting to...

    ANC on the N10 Pro isn't the best. I rarely use it as i don't travel much those days due to all the lockdowns. It cancels out mid to lower frequencies well enough but leaving a metallic sounding after effect of the outside noise. i've compared it with the BOSE QC it has the best ANC for TWE...

    I had a few hours of initial listening session with the N6 PRO2 last night and were able to A/B it with the N10 Pro and the N6 PRO. Using my S20Ultra i was able to do a dual output comparison on 2 pairs of wireless at the same time so a quicks switch is easy. The N6 Pro2 can do 48khz/24bit if...

    Just got the N6 PRO2 today. Told our retailer i was going to do a review on them so i got them early :) was having wine when it arrived so i thought it goes well on the plater yumm Need more time with them but from my initial listening the Bass is boosted, i would say about the same as the N6...

    Hi-Res, LDAC, APTX-HD, MQA imo codecs are much less important in the chain. tuning and driver designs plays a bigger part but its good to see we are getting more 24bit TWE out now.

    Gonna ask my local stockist if they will have it on release day :) might take one for the team. Looking up aptX Adaptive thats the same thing 24bit bowers & wilkins PI7 uses.

    Haven't heard the N10 Plus so didn't comment on it. The price difference is a no brainer if they sound the same. They are using the same drivers.

    I bought the sony xm3 when its first released. sounded a lot better than my Jabra 65t at the time and that was 2 yrs ago. I personally didn't like the XM3 sound. Just didn't have the clarity. N6 pro has a intimate sound to them because of the forward warm vocals. n10pro sounds totally different...

    i think you might have gotten the older N10Pro with connectivity issues. they did a recall on it. luckily mine had no issues with connectivity. i'm gonna pre-order the wf1000xm4 and compare it with the N10 pro. Its still king of sound stage for me.

    Gustard H16

    I think it might be due to marketing. the Gustard brand seems to sell better than the Topping stuff on Chinese ecommerce sites especially the higher end DACs. I don't think they are doing aggressive marketing here or paying more "shills" ;P than Topping.
