Just got mine today and I have to say the Supermoon is great < $1000. Drop currently has them at $699, not the lowest $599 price point but hey we might see that soon :)

Yes they are back at $799 now. The price may come down again so be sure to keep track of that Drop page. My order has shipped but it did take a few days for it to happen. I haven’t received the package yet. Last I checked it is in Germany. Since the destination is in Asia, I’ll probably wait at...

With the IMarge, I think the most interesting thing about this IEM is its presentation. As its name suggests, there is an “immersion” factor at play here. I enjoy pop and basically any music with vocals, some occasionally instrumental music here and there. Tried rock or edm-type music with it...

Just ordered one from Drop for $599, hope the delivery is smooth...

I now understand why the 007 cable was recommended for IMarge: it adds slight/some mid-bass bump and more weight to the mids compared to the default 013 cable. But having recently heard the MH335ht demo, IMarge is still relatively bass-light, not an IEM for bassheads for sure. Nevertheless, I'm...

Just received the Brise C.Silver C2 8-wire Ultimate cable and boy does it sound nice with DC Ti. I’ve been using the Naobi Ultimate for a few months and this cable just elevates the overall details, as expected with a silver cable. The wait was almost 4 months since this cable was on sale Jan 1...

I think the Kensei is made for those who missed out on the Gold Bar. Especially those who thought the Gold Bar was better sounding than the standard Go Bar. Three days in, going back and forth between the Kensei and the Gold Bar. I have a hard time determining a winner here. It really comes...

Few hours after the announcement and here we are…. The Gold Bar still feels a bit heavier in my hands. Did a quick comparison between K2HD enabled Kensei vs the Gold Bar: the Kensei seems to emphasize the background music more than the Gold Bar and has a slight sparkle somewhere in the...

This sounds like the iPhone’s current limitation kicking in. I’ve had the same issue with my ifi Gold Bar when trying to turn up the volume: cut outs. I was able to resolve this issue by using Audirect’s T1 lightning to type C cable with that embedded capacitor. With this cable, the lightning...

Finally demoed the MH335ht today, nice treble and bass quantity/extension. The mids sounded alright to me, wasn’t too wowed by the mids on a short listen. Maybe the custom version will be better. I’ll likely place an order in a few weeks :) as the in-store audiologist wasn’t here today.

2.5 months in with the DC Elite. Yesterday I tried the Andromeda MW10 with it and gosh 3 hours passed by before I realized it’s 4AM. When 4.4mm dongles started appearing in the market, I felt that there’s no need to buy an entry level DAP anymore. Now I’m pretty sure I don’t need midrange DAPs...

AK SP3000 Cu also works quite well with the PB5. Its balanced lineout can be configured to be fixed 2/2.5/4 V, works perfectly with the PB5. You get that increased, holographic soundstage effect with increased bass slam for the SP3000 Cu, love it.

Got a new custom case for the Elite from Taobao. The vendor is Jutem and they make custom cases for various dongles and DAPs. Many leather and color options available as long as they have them in stock :)

For me, about two days. DHL shipping from Hong Kong to Taiwan so yeah much faster but I think the package was in DHL’s hands one day after I placed the order. If this was FedEx, I’ll probably need to wait at least another day.

Wow the shipping speed from iBasso, I’m impressed!
