Could someone compare the A3Ss with dunu-1000? The sound signature and quality. I have a feeling that my dunus are counting their last months due to crappy cables, so I'd better be prepared. 

I'm not sure if you can actually prevent the mesh from collecting wax without compromising the sound. However, alcohol (spirit) is the way to go if you want to clean the wax completely. As a fellow member suggested, use a standard cotton ear-pick dipped into alcohol, and carefully clean the...

Thanks, was thinking the same thing. Though I read that the balanced armatures are in the nozzle. If that's true, I hope they are not too close to the grill. But even if it gets some alcohol vapour, I don't think it will damage anything - it just evaporates so fast.

I'm using JVC fxd mediums and they make the sound perfect for my ears. With the original tips, even the comply ones, some of my songs had rather unpleasant spikes in the higher regions. The JVCs fix all that without noticeable loss in clarity, plus they are really comfy. I can feel no pain or...

I've been wondering recently about the quality of these "mid-tier" IEMs like this one. I have these for 4 months now and I'm pleased with the sound. But man, what's up with these cables? They are already pretty stiff, especially near the drivers. I've had the exact same problem with my e-q5...

Not sure about the cables, but I've tried to pry open it.. ended up breaking the driver connection. Thought it won't happen, since I've seen one guy in this thread succeed. There is this small black part in the smaller chamber with very slim wires going to the driver, which was supposed to stay...

Wow, didn't see that one comin'   I'm currently using my dnk straight out of my HTC m7 when I'm on the go. For home listening I use it with Topping NX1 amp. Do you think it's enough for these IEMs to sound good? Would the additional DAC (or anything else) improve the sound noticeably? I like...

Been auditioning them for the better part of the day, they are indeed balanced (in a sense that I don't feel like EQing) and nice sounding IEMs.   Now compared to the e-q5 these I consider a nice sidegrade. I'll list some differences that I perceive between them. Keep in mind the different...

Still waiting for my pair to arrive.. After all this rave I just couldn't pass up, despite the dn2k already out. I just wasn't sure dn2k is worth the money.   Anyways, I'm coming from the e-q5 and I really enjoyed them. Yes, those are kinda bright, but I seem to have used to it.   Wonder if...

Hi, sorry for OT, but is there still a point in buying single driver/non-hybrid IEMs at a higher price (such as ER4s, FI-BA-SB, e-q5/7 and the likes) when these altones/dunus offer the same/better clarity and detail, along with more "full" sound? All that for a cheaper price. I'm confused.

Hey guys. I have a really nice experience listening to these iems, but it's my first high-end iem, so I don't have much to compare with. Anyways, out of the box they sounded quite harsh to me, also lacking bass impact. But that's probably because I was used to oversaturated bass from my previous...
