Sorry for the newbie question but i think i missed it when i went through the thread. Are these actual custom IEMs (i.e. i have to send in a mold/impression) or are these just universals modeled to look like customs? I guess this question applies to all the comparatively cheap custom-looking...

Thanks all. I decided to get an X3 just to see what the whole dedicated DAP is about. Hopefully it'll be a worthwhile purchase :)

@AudioNewbi3   Fair enough, since I wouldn't be surprised that my B3 dying isn't entirely my fault.   No, the TK12 is not the same as the TK13 - at least not from what I've read. Twin here has been saying that the TK13 is an upgraded version of the TK12 :)

Hello all. I'm trying to decide whether I should buy a Fiio X3ii (while it's discounted for the July 4th sale) or stick with my Moto X Pure and invest the money into a portable DAC/amp. What would get me more mileage in terms of SQ for the price, and what are the general reasons why someone...

Hope I'm not too late to chime in. I own the Re-400, Havi B3, Macaw Gt100s, and the TK12 (similar to TK13 from what others are saying), so it looks like you and I have similar preferences and wants. If you're driving them straight from a phone, I'd definitely prefer the TK12 over the other due...

Just gonna jump in and give my opinion. I think the sub-bass is really good on these and not something I'd expect from an IEM so bright. While I consider myself a treble lover, I can't really get over the overly bright presentation on these (cymbals are just way too splashy); I've decided to...

  I've been rocking these for the past 9 months ever since my Havi B3 crapped out on me, and I agree that the bass is amazing (good lower-bass presence and punchy midbass, if a bit light). The build quality and modular nozzles are also top-notch. However, I don't quite understand the...

Thanks all. I was already leaning towards the Shozy Zero and DQSM before I asked the question, but I'm definitely looking forward to Twin's reviews.

Hello all, long time lurker here.   Can anyone do a comparison between the Shozy Zero, TK12/13, DQSM, and Easy UE Customs 2016? I've followed most of the respective threads and checked out Twin's reviews comparing some of these IEMs, but am still undecided as to which one I should get. I tried...

Thanks, snagged a pair for myself out of impulse

Hey guys, the Fiio X3 is $130 at Adorama and Buydig, unless you guys would much prefer Amazon.   http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/996716-REG/fiio_x_3_x3_music_player.html http://www.buydig.com/shop/product.aspx?sku=FIIOX3

Nope, a university in NY.

Concerning the smiley face T-shirt, I was surprised to see a person wear one when exiting/near my university today. Coincidence? Unlikely... 

Is "Khan" referring to me? Assuming it is, I have the Pro-1 version.

@flib372    Yeah, I was pretty surprised at the amount of bass the B3 has when I compared them, because the IE800 was my most bass-heavy IEM by far. Perhaps it doesn't have much more bass, but it is more enveloping as stated before. I believe the IE800 has a bit more treble than the B3, but...
