    Yea, sometimes the Japanese like to make things sound fancier than they are. There's a chocolate that literally translates to adult's chocolate. Like, how can you claim that these chocolates are for adults :laughing:. I hope to get that many cables in a few years, I'm all spent out due to the...

    I got the ORB Clear Force Nova 2nd Gen Custom. The stock cable felt like it could be more, the rumble was nice but too forward sounding and it didn't sound spacious enough. The Clear Force Novas had exactly that, it still had that nice bass rumble while increasing the sound stage a bit. But this...

    I went that way because that's the only way products that don't provide any actual value to a consumer but still have demand survive. It's hard to believe "passion" alone creates demand. What makes products and businesses survive are good business plans and if people willing to value a product...

    I understand your point but wouldn't that apply for fads and ponzi schemes? In a situation where the product is hyped and doesn't promise what they deliver is when a market dies no? You cant possibly be suggesting a small group of audio cable believers are keeping the market alive. Going to your...

    I fully agree, it would definitely more helpful to understand the measurements between different cables to make a better judgement rather than just feelings. People may exaggerate how it really affects the sound and it is highly subjective description. I'm now interested upon understanding those...

    Don't you think that the fact that the cable market is still around and makes money already proves that people do hear differences after all these years? Just because some people don't hear a difference doesn't mean other people don't. Just don't buy it and stop complaining about it, it's as...

    Tansio Mirai Impressions Thread

    Received the Tansio X last night. Amazing, I'm having a blast with these. @Dsnuts you were absolutely spot on about the G4 pairing. Like others are saying the stock cable is really good too but it doesn't do these things justice. It sounding holographic was not an understatement, man these...

    Tansio Mirai Impressions Thread

    I completely understand your side on this topic but the point some people are making is that people are paying hundreds of dollars on these. And a more refined opinion is important and helpful for those who could possibly enjoy what other people are hearing! I personally like how serious people...

    I personally think that further proves his point. We don't buy these to listen for a few hours. I think listening to something that and talking about why someone would keep it after experiencing it's flaws for sometime are way more helpful then someone making a conclusion early. Of course early...

    Im in between when it comes to rock. Some songs it sounds amazing with separation and some songs it does feel too convoluted. However the grunt and the timbre is something I keep coming back to despite it sounding convoluted. I know a lot of people are recommending silver cables for the quattro...

    I do understand what you're saying. To build upon it, the whole concept of money is how much can make someone believe that this is worth x amount of money. That feelings, our mood and what we believe do affect the perception on what is and what isn't. To summarize are you saying that despite...

    Ah! So setting it for 50-100 hours straight is okay? At what volume do you put it at? May you please explain brain burn? I think people just talk through experience on what drivers are in the IEM from what I've read. As what emdeevee said, I've also been told if it has dynamic drivers it...

    To give context I bought the Quattros and I love them, they're a great addition to what I have. It's just that the website says 200 hours of burn in. I for one am a believer... The bass definition and texture is vastly different from out of the box compared to listening to them for 40+ hours. I...

    Hi everyone, what is your preferred method of burning in? I usually just listen them to see the transformation in sound but I don't have THAT much time. I've read of people burning it in over night but also people recommending not leaving it for x amount of hours. I also don't have a dac. I was...

    Im thinking of getting the GS849 based on your recommendation to prepare for the TSMR-X. Curious, why is the G4 not recommended. From what i've read the G4 is more versatile and I might lean into that instead.
