    Review by 'Skint' on item 'Cayin YB04'

    Disclaimer: As part of the Cayin N6II and YB04 tour I was lent these IEMs to try in exchange for an honest review. I am in no way associated with Cayin. The YB04 is Cayin's first IEM and is positioned as a mid-priced multi BA over ear unit with a premium metal build and engaging, powerful...

    Review by 'Skint' on item 'Cayin N6ii'

    This review of the Cayin N6ii is part of the world tour and I was given the chance to audition this player in return for an honest review. I am in no way connected with Cayin. Lets get right into it... Specification Android OS (stripped down customized version of 8.1 Oreo) Bluetooth aptX...

    Cowon Plenue R2

    @jmills8 Cool cool, looking forward to comparing N6ii vs. PM2.

    Cowon Plenue R2

    @jmills8 Haha love it! I have a 26,000mah batt in my bag I can hook it up to. I wish cowon would include a fast charging chip, that would help a lot. Curious as to whats your current fave DAP? For sound quality only. I should be getting the cayin N6ii on the tour soon and from reading reviews...

    Cowon Plenue R2

    There's a lot of P2 and P2mk2 for sale on ebay etc. But I need the player to last at least 12hr (Long haul flight for instance). Changed the battery in my PM2 but still only get around 8hr. The R2 has 10way eq vs. The D2 6 way, more important than it seems for us EQ monkeys. Looks great in black...

    Cowon Plenue R2

    @muteness I will go for the R2. Been waiting for this one. Battery life and Cowon EQ are the most important things to me. Already purchased the plenue R case (half price due to open box on advancedmp3) as its exact same dimensions. Expect this will cost around £550.

    FEARLESS Audio IEM's Discussion/Impressions

    @warriorpoet What is the volume difference like on the Roland? e.g. how much more (or less) do you have to turn the Roland up vs. a multi BA iem? When I auditioned the Valkyrie I had to turn my play up +50% as opposed to my multi BA iem. I would guess the Roland is similar.

    FEARLESS Audio IEM's Discussion/Impressions

    Interestingly, I was chatting with the JH guy at CanJam who said in Europe most people prefer the Angie, while in USA most prefer the Roxanne - more mid/high centric vs. bass centric. Wonder if the general musical influence in each county feeds into this.

    FEARLESS Audio IEM's Discussion/Impressions

    Saving up now to buy the Roland, if it's as good as the EE Valkyrie (auditioned @ CanJam) then it's an absolute 100% winner!

    CanJam London 2019 Impressions thread

    @glassmonkey Amazing review! I think power is really important for these new e-stat hybrids. I couldn't get the trinity to sound good at all (sounded like a muddy mess) from my single ended Plenue M2 - even at almost max volume. A DAP or amp with balanced output is highly recommended. This was...

    CanJam London 2019 Impressions thread

    @krismusic Cheers man. Yeah it sucks, I was literally hanging around the bale whilst others listen looking at the clock but just ran out of time. I'm sure i'll catch it somewhere. Listened to all other Noble IEM's, Kaiser was my fave.

    CanJam London 2019 Impressions thread

    So, another great CanJam, only there for a few hours but got a lot in. I was really looking for endgame IEM for myself and the wife, but also nice to check out all the expensive gear on show. My Favorites (in order): 1. EE Legend X/Valkyrie - man I can't decide. Listened to the LX before and...
