Man that is good looking. I'm going to be over that. I'm hoping (and assuming) that's it's going to have a nice airy sound and wide soundstage with that large open grille!

I can't stop drooling....

That's a pretty smart idea by lendmeurears! almost 20 hours battery life for their new Bluetooth earphones. That's crazy

This sounds stupid, but check to make sure the headphone jack is fully seated in your source. Mine was unusually hard to completely seat, which is a good thing from a secure connection standpoint, but a bad thing from a sound standpoint if not fully seated. I could still hear both channels, but they did not sound good at all until I checked and completely seated the connector.

I tried everything, even that, I had them burning in for about 20+ hrs plus the time i listen to them and still barely any bass, had them from different sources (my dac, out of my laptop's soundcard, my stereo's output jack, etc.)
Though it's the only thing they lack, they have clarity and spaciousness, but rather sibilant, thanks for the advice though

You haven't tried everything...

Hi! Newbie here. I will be getting a pair of <$10 earphones, but have no idea which to pick. Sub-bass, clarity, wide soundstage, comfort of the earphones are my main considerations. The earphones below is what I found interesting:
- UiiSii HM7
- QKZ W1 Pro
- QKZ W3 (aka DM300, updated and improved version of W1 Pro?)
- KZ ATE
- KZ ZSE (too new to know yet, but the dual drivers looks promising)
- This unspecified Tingo IE-800 (Tennmak 800) for $10?: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/201...785339022.html?spm=2114.search0104.0.0.FXgjEj
I know all of these are very good earphones, but I would hear some of the detailed opinions from you guys. Thanks!

ZS5 Eargams right now with this Bonobo track:


Imaging, back ground texture, 3D feel, delicious bass roundness, sub bass melody, foward vocals, good test track!

Perfect for the review im about to finish

 

[groucho69]

Cool.

I will be providing initial impressions in the next few days. I received my first pair of ZS5's, a pair of Mygeek professionals and a pair of Tennmak Crazy Cellos. The only ones I have listened to at all so far are the Mygeeks, and that was only for 5 minutes or so. First impression is they are a bit bass heavy, but sound good otherwise. This is stock tips, driven by my Nexus 6p...

Try with foam tips, bass is reduced significantly.

Hey guys, I found these earphones that I think of buying: https://www.head-fi.org/f/showcase/nicehck-eb200.22496/reviews

I found them on aliexpress for 17$. However the reviewer says the earphones have 200 ohms and that I'll need an amplifier - is that be absolutely necessary for casual listening on phone? I can't go without it? I've never had earphones with such high impendance so I don't know what I'm dealing with, but is that true that 200 ohms earphones + no amplifier = not being able to hear anything?

The reviewer is probably spot on, I very much doubt a phone will give you a decent volume with those (maybe a LG V10 would). Try something like the Monk+, Qian 25, Ty Hi Z 32 or similar if earbuds are your thing and you don't want to purchase a headphone amp or dac/amp

They are out on AE already. US$9/- gets you one from the KZ Official Store.

The specs are interesting for the price, as it goes 20-45,000 hz, 120 DB. Really tempted to just buy one for trying !
