LZ-A4 Impressions and Discussion Thread
I left mine alone for nearly 5 days. I originally would have an issue where I'd go to bed with them sounding great then wake up with the left IEM much quieter, but this has gone away. My issue is a little different I fear. I'll do some more testing to determine the issue. It can't be cable or...- CGrish

LZ-A4 Impressions and Discussion Thread
Anyone have any experience taking apart the A4? My left monitor has recently gotten quieter specifically in the upper range. If it isn't too risky I'd love to do it myself rather than send it back to China for 2 months.- CGrish

LZ-A4 Impressions and Discussion Thread
Just thought I'd let you know that you do not need to invert the cables to use the IEM's over the ear. They're designed to be used both ways. Since you're using the Red back filter, I'm guessing you're a fan of bass. I suggest you try NO back filter and see if you enjoy that. The Blue front...- CGrish

LZ-A4 Impressions and Discussion Thread
If you're not happy with Red back just know you can go NO BACK filter. I'm not a basshead but even I love crazy bass every once in a while. I didn't like the black nozzle on front at first and enjoyed the Gray filter's treble more so feel free to give that a try too.- CGrish

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
IEM: As the new LZ-A5 is coming out the LZ-A4 price might drop soon. It can be bought for around $160 US, but usually $190 US, plus it's sold on headfi all the time. It's a fantastic IEM IMO- CGrish

LZ-A4 Impressions and Discussion Thread
Just curious if anyone could compare the Lz-A4 (or A5 if RedJohn wants to) to the HD-6xx from massdrop, because they're so similarly priced. I know they have completely different sounds to them, but I'd appreciate a little overview. Also, bought my Lz-A4 a few weeks back thanks to this thread...- CGrish

Maybe I missed a post but I don't think I ever saw him compare his earbuds to any that he didn't own.- CGrish

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
Hello Chinese IEM thread, I'd been here previously for a brief amount of time, but I abandoned this thread for a period because I lost interest (and budget....) I'm back because I'm looking for the best close to neutral/natural sounding IEM at around $100. My max budget is $125. I have heard...- CGrish

I believe he was one of the first to receive the Shockwaves along with Twin. The Shockwaves also have a DD and are not mid emphasized like he's talking about. So these ate not his impressions on the Shockwaves. Just saw the end of your post (@Skullophile) not sure if you edited or I missed it...- CGrish

Yeah, I'm not sure if cold is the correct term, but cold is the opposite of warm and that's definitely not what they are so I thought it fit...- CGrish

The HLSX-808 are growing on me! I didn't like them much in my initial impressions, but burn in (not sure if it's my ears or the drivers) has made something great out of these. The treble is no longer piercing to my sensitive eardrums at any . The bass, which was originally a bit boomy, has...- CGrish
