Can you show me a pic of your "mesh"? I'm curious now! Or did you remove that along with the glue

Oh mine wasn't any kind of mesh, it was 100% sealed over with a thin film, making the "ported" feature of it entirely useless. It resolved the bass being tragically poor to having the impact I was expecting. They are supposed to be open, with a small blue and red circle thing in each one.

Me too! They're a lot more stunning than the first ones they tried to send me that just looked flat out meh! These ones are stunning. I'll get some nicer pics tomorrow, I've got a full on day today of checking out open homes and going to the stadium to watch a rugby game 😊

I did about two days ago!! Will take some better photos in a day or so and write a review once I've had a good chance to listen to them. Initial thoughts though, the treble is incredibly detailed, light and airy, mids are so so as you'd expect from a V shape tune, and the bass is nice. I'll be...

Wonder how their bass is compared to Legacy 9 - same DD ?

Thanks for the quick review, sounds like similar to a lot of other reviewers, with it being a fun v shape.. Perfect for my basshead needs with that sparkly treble too :D

Ive just retired my iFi xDSD that I was using with Samsung s10+, and I'm now using a Fiio m11 Pro controlled via FiioLink , needed more power for EQing my iems! But I've been using an xDSD for the past two years, overall a very good unit, but I'm one who likes to listen LOUD and push EQ power...

It sure does! It's a great wee device, sometimes I even strap it to my phone when I go out walking 😂

Fair comment :) there's quite a few loving it over here https://www.head-fi.org/threads/thieaudio-legacy-9.927889/ clearly they're not bassheads as there's a lot of talk of doing -3db in the bass 😂😂😂 I'll make sure I give you all an honest basshead review. I own the SZ2000 and TH900mk2...

I've tried to purchase Empire Ears Legend X on two occasions, prior to purchase I've sent them emails several times , and never received any replies so I moved on from that dream. I even tried from my work domain which I'm a mail Admin to ensure no weird spam blockery was happening.. No replies...

I wonder if its using the same DD as the Legacy 9. The site states 150hz crossover so should have strong midbass too. Does anyone know the crossover point for the L9? I've flicked Linsoul an email asking if it's the same DD, and how they think mid/subbass compares. I don't know much about...

Hopefully I get pics of mine this week, I've given up on them looking like what was on the site or similar :frowning2:

Ohhh I like those!!!!

Thanks for the review!! Makes me quite excited to hear them to be honest. I'm a basshead for certain, and given I haven't heard the Sony IER-Z1R, and the fact they are 4x the price (plus more once I pay import tax to New Zealand), i think comparativfely I'll be happy and I understand they're...

I've heard a lot of good things about spiral dots, I'll see if I can import some just to see what they're like. I'm after as much bass as possible for the L9, which I find foam generally offers, tightening it up does sound good though Security when moving about helps a lot too, as in often...
