Head-Fi Basshead IEM thread (lists page 1)
You can always as Bob at IMR for some. It sounds like you were given the replacement set when the Zeniths came out. The first set were out of phase and can be fixed easily flipping the 2 pin connectors. So basically, everyone got a spare set minus filters. That would explain why the filters were...- sino8r

Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread
To those who's ZS10 Pros have arrived... Is there driver flex like the ZS7s? Will driving flex decrease the life of a dynamic driver?- sino8r

IMR - R1 Thread
Oh... I get the comparison now with the open backs. I thought you were confused about it and thinking it was the planar model coming up. I'm really excited about the Rah and the entry level planar. I'm saving my loyalty code for one of those. I'm sure the open back R2 will sound good but I...- sino8r

Wait a sec... I thought the R2 wasn't planars just a newer piezoelectric like the Zenith.- sino8r

IMR - R1 Thread
I asked Bob if the new filters for the R2 will be available for sale and/or if they'll fit the Zenith and R1. Also asked about the coupon code working on the Rah. This is his reply... The filters should fit all models and I am just finalising them now. I will be offering them but I will only...- sino8r

Didn't Bob send an email saying that he would allow the code to work for the Rah? Or is that wishful thinking?- sino8r

IMR - R1 Thread
Don't get me wrong... I love my R1s and Zeniths but don't these look like the Zenith shell with a open grill attached? I'm wondering if the Zeniths phase issues killed some of the sales and reviews which resulted in fewer sales than anticipated. The R1 was praised so much that Bob over-bought...- sino8r

That's always an option. Good call... I just figured he didn't have one. I have at least 2 two that I'm aware of but I'm a nerd lol- sino8r

I think the rounded side is the positive. Do others agree?- sino8r

FiiO FH7 - FiiO's Flagship Hybrid IEM
As a FH5 and IMR R1 & Zenith owner, I can say that with a DD that large it has the potential for alot of bass. The filters will probably make the difference. One graph with no labels as to which filter was used won't explain much. More than likely, it was probably the neutral filter to give a...- sino8r

No problem! Can we get an image of the pins facing the camera? Sometimes there's a red dot or the plastic holding the pins is rounded on one side- sino8r

Yeah this set is in phase while the first set isn't. Follow the plus and minus sides on the wires- sino8r

IMR - R1 Thread
I might as well post my mod. Same as before with the R1. Changed out the 2 pin to mmcx due to my Sony MUC-M2BT1 bluetooth. The method was the same as the R1, rotary tool with engraving bit at 5000 rpm to drill out the 2 pin shaped mold in the housing, solder the mmcx connectors, and lightly fill...- sino8r

That's bizarre. Mine aren't that way at all. I do use an equalizer and triple flange tips though. I seem to be rather treble sensitive at my advanced age of 37 lol. Usually seems to be a younger person thing. The only thing I can suggest is check the phase via wires and try foam tips. Mine take...- sino8r
