    Reply to review by 'liteon163' on item 'iFi audio nano iDSD Black Label'

    My ifi iDSD nano black label sounds better than my Modi 3 / Magni 3 Schiit Stack... But I'd rather use the nano BL around the house rather than just at my computer.

    I picked up the two pin version of this to run with my Shozy Rouge IEMs. Impressive sound quality for simple aptX. The volume is impressive as well. And the two pins are long enough I don't worry about losing the IEMs. My only issue is that wearing these with glasses is inconvenient, as...

    They ended up being a bit "too much" for me. Bass is big and boomy, yet still sharp. Just a bit too prominent for me. Treble is quite forward, but in a frequently sibilant manner. The mids are still quite nice, though. These are OK, but I just felt that there would be something better out...

    Review by 'liteon163' on item 'KBEAR limpid 4 Core 4N 99.99% Purity silver earphone cable'

    The BGVP NS9 IEMs I ordered came with an MMCX cable that was a bit janky (poor fit on the right bud), so I decided to pick up one of these cables as a replacement. Just taking it out of its HiFiGo packaging was nice - I immediately could tell from its heft and flexibility that this is solid...

    I've been casting about, trying to find an upgrade from my Etymotic ER2XR IEMs because I feel their treble is rolled off a bit too aggressively. The Shozy Rouge eventually came to my attention through HiFiGo and the Crinacle IEM graphing tool. I read around a bit and found quite a few good...

    I have one of these on the way from HiFiGo. I'll post a review when I've tried it out.

    ifi nano black - usb driver

    I meant if one is trying to power the device via USB, as USB 3.0 and higher can provide greater power than previous generations.

    Intermediate Update: I received these today. Listening straight out of the box with the default filter and tips, they sound quite good to me (via Modi 3 / Magni 3 Heresy Schiit stack). Very smooth with no range overpowering any other. I'll experiment with different filter and tip...

    I just received my NS9 order from HiFiGo. Straight out of the box with the default filters and tips, I think they sound quite good. (I'm listening to them via my Modi 3 / Magni 3 Heresy Schiit stack). I'll play with filters and tips until I find the best combination for me, but considering...

    Starfield vs ER2XR vs AKG K361 for commuting

    ER2XR. Definitely. Once I experimented with tips, I'm quite satisfied with their isolation and sound quality.

    I'm looking forward to comparing these against my Etymotic ER2XR IEMs...

    Is a Magni 3 Heresy a good enough amp?

    After trying the Shanling AE3 dual BA IEM, I ordered these. I figured more drivers and an actual crossover circuit should help the sound better. And the custom filters and tips should help, too. Hopefully I'll get them soon. When I do, I'll be back with an update.

    I picked up a pair of these from HiFiGo, and they're decent. The bass certainly is strong, and the treble is clear. I just wish either there was one more BA to cover the mids or there was a better crossover. Not my favorite IEMs (that would be the ER2XR), but they're good enough to stay in...
