Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?
Hello. I was recently looking at the Moondrop Space Traveler, I'm not familiar with TWS iems honestly, I prefer wired, but many phones ditched their jacks, and I prefer not snagging wires or needless plugging into ports. I had plenty of fun with surprising bass from some Jabra Elite 3s with my...- ear4ear

Decided to grab an NRA since I wanted a teal colored IEM and the ASTs went with my black and gold stuff. Replaced the tips for (M) foam. I normally wear a Spinfit CP240/CP100+. The foams gave me a better feel, probably because the isolation of air movement of the foam compared to silicone and...- ear4ear

Hey, thank you for that. The tactile feel of bass and my ears don't easily fatigue make it fun to really tune things, I have a very high tolerance to bass and sibilance, usually my output is on the high side. Have you read much into piezo-tech on the audio side, I haven't even realized it was...- ear4ear

I was definitely thinking so, I'm kind of excited over the MK3 more I think. It just sucks I have to get a matching cable and matching ear tips, but $80 was too hard to pass up. I was kind of surprised they did an interchangeable nozzle, I head it really doesn't do much for some people. The...- ear4ear

While I wait to see if my color coded CCA NRA dreams are smashed by the Zex having better tuning. I managed to grab a Tri Starsea for $75 and possibly a pair of NiceHCK NX7 MK3s for $80. I'd say that was a good haul, yeah?- ear4ear

Anyone find any charts yet on the sound signature of the NRA vs the ZEX? I was hoping got a green/silver combo. I like to color coordinate my IEMs.- ear4ear

If KZ pulls what CCA did with the AST on their KEZ (actually really disappointed in them adding two vents beside basically no change in tuning), I'm going to be pretty bummed. The silver/green scheme was nice on the NRA, and I was hoping for a sharper kind of detail on the KZ side with it. The...- ear4ear

How would you compare them to the BL-03s or a pair of ASTs? I just worry because the Prometheus are very open and I've heard they seem dominant for female vocals and too many instruments can get muddled especially onto bass. On the other hand I've seen people say it's the BL-03 perfected, which...- ear4ear

The Tin2s didn't feel great to me when I tried them, but maybe they weren't broken in? They just seemed very average, but I'm starting to consider BL-03s now...- ear4ear

Haha, I was eying the Moondrop Starfield (hear the Aria is close to the to the Moondrop Starfield, but need a better cable) since I love their aesthetic and I can grab one a little more than the Aria, I hate their cables though, I just worry it'll be too clean or smooth, I definitely want...- ear4ear

Thank you, I appreciate your input. My range is up to $150, but it doesn't have to be $150, I should probably add that in my main post. It's been a while and I'm looking for something that will shock me at its price point. The ZS10Pro and TFZ I did understand are V-shape, just wasn't sure...- ear4ear

Can someone give me a recommendation to the right direction? I was looking at either the AST, ZAS, TFZ no.3, or just grab a ZS 10 Pro. I definitely want a punchy bass that can keep up speed wise, but I've been really wanting something a little more U shaped more as opposed to V shaped where I...- ear4ear
