    The PENON official thread

    I have both and use them daily and they are very different. Quattro is subbass leaning while Twilight leans towards the midbass. Technicalities are way better on the Twilight, with a bigger sound stage and better layering. Mids are more forward on the Twilight and are generally clean. Quattro...

    Can’t seem to find liquid links actual website but this store carries it although you’ll have to check if they ship internationally if you don’t stay in Singapore. https://zeppelinandco.com/products/liquid-links-conti-instock

    Tansio Mirai Impressions Thread

    Based on your previous comments about vocals and the treble glare/shimmer/sibilance, it seems you're facing the same type of problem I have with the X. To cut a long story short, I feel you are looking for a copper cable that tames treble without making it overly dull and that brings vocals out...

    I haven’t heard the EA1000 but I have both the TM-X and Quattro and those two are almost as different as they come. The Quattro is a bass and mids dominant tuning which gives it a very lush replay that would be characterised as warm. It has enough treble not to be considered dark imo but it does...

    ISN Earphones impression thread. New ISN NEO 3!

    Hi all, does anyone happen to know if ISN does custom cable sheathing? I might want to get the ISN G4, but the colour is really throwing me off :P

    I’ve been struggling a little with the TSMR X. While I’ll definitely agree its details and technical performance is outstanding (some of the fastest transients I’ve ever heard and a really trippy soundstage), I’m generally not a fan of the tuning. This is definitely a preference thing as a more...

    Tansio Mirai Impressions Thread

    Talking about cables, I’m curious to hear what others have settled on for the TSMR X. Personally I tested the Penon ASOS and went back to the stock because I felt it lost some air and energy in the upper registers. Right now I’m considering the Penon mix based on recommendations by others for...

    Just a PSA because it threw me off entirely, the switches on the TSMR X are labeled 1,2,3 in left to right order on BOTH pieces. This is my first time using iems with switches so I’m not sure if that is normal. My expectation was for them to be symmetrical, meaning left: (3,2,1) right: (1,2,3)...

    Thanks for sharing that. You just saved me a bunch of cash with cable experiments haha. Will probably just stick to the stock cable till I can demo something convincely better Out of curiosity, with a cable like that are you constantly switching it around or do you just stick it on the iem...

    That looks lovely! I've been hunting for a good step up from the stock cable which retains its exact signature so this could be it. Just...I'm not sure I'm ready to fork out over half the cost of the quattro haha. I tried the ASOS with the quattro but felt it added too much in the lower mids and...

    Thanks for sharing :) so what have you ended up with on your quattro and how are you finding it?

    Mind sharing if it emphasises any parts of the bass, mids, treble on the Quattro? Also curious if it improves technical performance in anyway. Strongly considering this for my quattro as I want to use my asos with another iem

    The PENON official thread

    For sure I can see where you’re coming from. I should have first prefaced that the changes I described were improvements on the scale of cables - meaning noticeable but not very large. Kinda like adding a few pinches of salt to pasta is how I would describe the scale of effect of cables (in my...

    I’m using mine with the Penon ASOS and it is a great pairing. Wider sound stage, more midbass which nicely balances the tone and most importantly thicker note weight which helps some of the thinness of the EJ07M. Before this I was using the ISN S4 on it which gave it a cleaner sound, more space...
