Oh, yes, it is kind of funny... Perhaps I shouldn't have just copied the seller's description.

Well... if you put two same treble drivers on different crossover passbands - technically you do get "lower-highs" and "higher-highs"... it is just a matter of how do you market that... Yes, "super highs" might sound gimmicky, but if mentioned treble crossover scheme is implemented properly it...

Yes, you wonder how they fit so many drivers in one T12 earpiece... but it is really six (6) dual BA drivers per side: 2x knowles HODVTEC-31618 dual woofers (lows) 2x sonion 33AP007 tandem broadband drivers (mids) 1x knowles SWFK-31736 dual tweeter (highs) 1x knowles SWFK-31736 dual tweeter...

Bah... discovered first MK2 drawback: with decent DAC/amp they are special, but on lesser sources they are just good. :triportsad: Till today I've kept them hooked to my bedside piCorePlayer/NFB-11.32 combo and they were just flying. Today I've took them for a spin with my phone... oh well...

Antitragus and antehelix on both of my ears have traction burns so, for the time being, I have to stop listening (damn those MX shells)... but I want to say this: I was having fun collecting cheap IEMs until in a couple of my budget overstretches I got LZ A5 (fun IEM) and HiSenior T12U...

Yes, same here today... First listen: balanced FR, detailed, fuzzy instrument separation, average clarity... throw away cable. 1clearhead got me on this with "...crystal clear MID's...", and "...with excellent soundstage..." while grading it higher than K3 which is, in my opinion, quite good at...

This looks nice and useful... any shopping link for that?

Thanks for suggestions. What is MK2/MX500 shell diameter? 1,5 - 1,6 cm? Are there some kind of silicone/rubber earhooks or rings? Are those things useful at all?

Got MK2's today. First listen thoughts - clear, spacious, "naturally warm" so very non-fatiguing and inviting listen. ...but... can anyone tell me how to fit those in my ear? Have not had earbuds for more than 20 years (circumaural full-sizes or IEMs kind of guy). They seem to thick and big...

Seriously?!? That is your "technical" reasoning or you are taking me (us) for a spin? You can contact the seller and arrange jacks, connectors, even splitters... the final price might change though.

If "turning green" is a concern - how about using litz wire cables? Properly enameled strands in litz wires do not oxidise (turn green). Fun fact: not "turning greeen" is just positive collateral effect - litz wires, from my experience, tend to help with overall clarity and sibilance issues.

Since they are in the same price range, why not go for Hakugei litz cable?

I hear you. But I suppose T8 is HiSenior's sweet spot. There is a thread here (and youtube video related to it) about T8 and much of what is said there could be translated to T12 too. Also - T8 is much cheaper and probably a safer bet (what if you do not like T12 in the end?). Not saying that I...

Ha, ha, ha... I admire your distinguished HeadFi panache. :ksc75smile: To be honest - my initial order was T8U, but audio-greed and double twin 33AP Sonion curiosity made me upgrade my order to T12U... therefore I can relate in a way with your latest impulse. :beerchug: Remember - it is most...

I alternate between: wide and shallow double flanges (better staging?) narrower (slightly deeper insertion) tri-flanges or spinFit CP240 bi-flanges (even more clarity?) In both cases - really, really good isolation.

No, not the same... as I understand it - their B series are "production line" products, while their T series are custom built... T series have no "Knowles sound filters" for sound adjustment - just bespoke matching and tuning. I wanted UIEMs too, and you can order "Universal" version of their T...

Ha! New HiSenior customer, congratulations! :beerchug: Had similar "paradigm" myself... everything is there in front of you: the clearest mids, effortlessly hyperdetailed yet unobtrusive highs and fast and present and seemingly flat lows and all that paired with excellent isolation... You like...

Yes, deep insertion tips, if one can stand them, help with A5. Tri-flange - sure... but amazingly also SS sized CP100 SpinFit eartips which, for me, work only with A5; with all other IEMs I have those SS CP100 do not seal at all... must be because of the longer and narrower A5 nozzle/filter...

Ah, the Honda earphones! The Neymar Jr. of midrange IEMs... ;) I concur with most B9's views from his review, but for me the new filters, although they nicely put treble in check, they also result in slight "nasal sounding", especially in female voice range. My solution (if one feels that A5...

Thanks for describing Masya's sound to me in a way that I can really understand. I tend to have difficulties with audio-sommelierist tounge. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: So, your pick in my situation would be Masya?

Thanks. I suppose Mk2 would suit my preferences?

From my experience - single crystal (OCC, UPOCC...) cables in litz topology DO help with general clarity and with sibilance issues. At least - they helped on all headphones I've recabled to OCC/litz...

Hi lads, an earbud newbie here... It took me a while to go through a couple hundred last pages of this thread and finally feel confident enough to ask. I have some experience/preference of orthodynamic circumaurals and BA/hybrid IEMs and want to try earbuds. My primary sound preferences are...

Err... you've lost me there: :ksc75smile: Thanks though for this, as well as for all other reviews you publish... they help me in selecting or at worst narrowing my earphone choices ...and keeping at least some money in my wallet. :beerchug:

That's it Chris - thanks again. MR3 it is. :ksc75smile:
