  1. Singapore Airlines KrisWorld IEM

    1.00 star(s)
    Alright. It's the review you’ve all been waiting for. The Krisworld Singapore Airlines Complimentary IEM. It’s those secret IEM’s, diamonds in the rough and needles in the haystack which keep this hobby alive. The Complimentary Krisworld IEM is not one of them. All audio was tested using FLAC files and high quality video via a mobile phone AUX. Packaging These come packed in a plastic puch that requires ripping the top off, however it is resealable which allows the packaging to double as a little pouch. Something you don't see a lot of from other...
  2. Simgot EW200

    3.00 star(s)
    The EW200 was sent to me courtesy of an impromptu message from a Simgot rep. Considering all the hype around these I was surprised I would be getting asked if I wanted to Partake, but given all the Simgot love. Well yea colour me a curious little Betsy. Foreword Full disclosure, I am frustrated by the never ending barrage of Chinese IEMS hitting the market, receiving praise after praise, with the dreaded “This is an easy, no-brainer, simple recommendation, eSpEciALly at $45!!!!” And If I have $55? Then what? Then what? While I understand budgets...
  3. Denon PerL Pro

    5.00 star(s)
    Lets get something out of the way I'm not a feature and benefits guy. I don't care for ANC. A TWS app doesn't do anything for me, I don't care about setting touch controls, awareness mode is useful but I also do not care for talking to people with an earbud in. Just take it out. Are you the worlds laziest person; It's like going for a run with a person wearing a blindfold. EQ is useful, but every audio player now has a built in eq and although I do occasionally make a tweak hear or there I'd prefer not to have to. Why do I say all this? To set...
  4. 7Hertz Timeless

    3.50 star(s)
    I opened up Head-fi today and you know what I thought? This sight needs another 7Hz Timeless review. I purchased the Timeless right after hearing the Tri i3 Pro. My favourite part of the i3 Pro was the Planar sounding mids. I heard it and instantly wanted more! Bigger, Louder!! The Timeless certainly delivers some of that. I describe the planar "sound" as if all the sounds/tones/notes in their multitudes of layers, and instruments are eminating from a singular wave. Like a plasma I've also heard some people call it a wall of sound effect. I...
  5. HiBy Crystal 6 (Gen 1)

    2.50 star(s)
    Crystal 6 Gen 1 is an interesting listen and was considered mostly as a companion IEM to the HiBy DAP range. This unit was loaned to me by @Joe Bloggs and one of my first experiences with an all BA IEM. However, I am going to use this review to show my supreme impartiality. Let's begin ~ The HiBy Crystal 6 (Gen 1) does some things right, but most things wrong. I can see why HiBy would have decided to update this IEM and thank the heavens for that. However there are some caveats to this. Personally, when running the Crystal 6 (Gen 1) off a...
  6. HiBy Zeta

    5.00 star(s)
    The HiBy Zeta Disclaimer: This is a Feelings-No-Facts review. My favourite kind. ~ Review sample was loaned courtesy of @Joe Bloggs Sound impressions are based off the HiBy RS6 DAP pairing. ~~ I'm not usually very good at describing treble, or what it is that I like about high notes. It's easier to acknowledge what it is that I don't like about Treble. I don't like it harsh or peaky (Although I'm in no way sensitive to it). I don't like it dull (although I mostly listen to electronic so it isn't too bad if it is) and I don't like treble...
  7. HiBy Crystal6 II

    4.50 star(s)
    The Hiby Crystal6 II was loaned courtesy of Joe Bloggs as a little runners up gift for their latest review tour. Disclaimer: People being nice to me influences my opinion and makes me want to say nice things. I joke, these are just sound impressions to my ears. From everything I’ve read Hiby IEMs have been considered companion products to their DAPS, one of which I was also sent the Hiby RS6. This review is a mix between sound impressions from the RS6 and from my regular android phone the Oppo Reno 8 Lite. The Crystal6 II is my first all BA IEM...
  8. TRI i3 Pro in-ear monitors 1planar+1DD+1BA

    3.50 star(s)
    TRI i3 PRO - A Review Looking for a cheaper alternative to the Oriolus Szalayi led me to the Tri i3 Pro with the same driver configuration. This was my first Planar experience and quite a good one at that. But with so many more options in the market and with time passed are the Tri i3 Pro still worth consideration? Who knows? Who cares? Maybe just me, let's find out. Disclaimer: I run music through my phone using FLAC files downloaded from Bandcamp. I rarely use a DAP/DAC of which I only have one, the Audioquest Dragonfly Black. I buy my iems for...
  9. Noble Audio Kublai Khan

    5.00 star(s)
    The Noble Kublai Khan, a masterpiece in resolution. Easily the most resolving, exciting and powerful sound I've ever heard, but that's easy, until now I've mostly only listened to True Wireless Earbuds and a few cheapo over-ears. There's not a lot that hasn't already been said so I today we be different. Today we are going to solely review the sound of these devilish dragon beasts against songs I had no interest in ever hearing again. Can they make some of the objectively most despised songs sound acceptable? Nice? Enjoyable even? Let's find out...
  10. Nuratrue Pro

    4.00 star(s)
    Brand: Nura Model: Nuratrue Pro Release Date: Late 2022 / Early 2023 ~ Final review Score has been changed from 4.5 to 4.0 to better reflect the connectivity issue ~ I've been around the world. Japan, China, America, Europe, All in the search of the perfect TWS. I seen some things. Well I didn't think that I'd find what I was looking for in my own humble little country of Australia. Poker machines sure. Overpriced property, you got it. and weird little creatures with mucus pouches for their offspring; are all things I'd expect to find here. But...
  11. final ZE8000

    4.00 star(s)
    Good Morning and Afternoon. I’ve been using Final Audio’s latest flagship tws the ZE8000 for just over 2 weeks now and have managed to get the experience down into words. Potentially too many words but this bud asks a lot from your wallet so I shall ask just as much of your time. Thanks to the Addicted to Audio team who allowed the transaction of currency in exchange for goods. The Final ZE8000 is seriously worthy of attention, but it depends on what you prioritize in a bud as well as what genre you find yourself listening too. In the very...
  12. Victor HA-FX-150T

    3.50 star(s)
    Introducing Victor! A Japanese company that gets it sales techniques passed down from Japan’s department of Immigration. You essentially need a Japanese passport, Japanese address, linguistic skills and knowing whatever the hell the word “Neucan” means to purchase these. . .. ... Or get an Amazon Japan account. It’s rare to find a company that not wanting to sell their products outside of their relatively small little island nation. I’m on a relatively large island nation called Australia and we will translate our gas and ore into any language...
  13. Morph Infiniconnect

    2.00 star(s)
    General Information I used to like crowdfunding, it felt like I was getting the latest technology and coolest ideas that the big companies just weren't willing to risk. Alas, with the speed that the TWS market moves, the endless shells available to slap your name on and more recently the great chipset shortage it seems crowdfunding is losing it's charm. I like to focus on the positives, so let's focus on the positives Morph is attempting to change the way we use tws, instead of navigating...
  14. Nuarl N6 Pro2

    5.00 star(s)
    N6 Pro 2’s arrived Monday and I've been banging them for a few days. Box - Standard box, earbuds are out of the case and using this nice little clip system to stay in place over the foam. Inside the box smells like a new sneaker box. I liked that. The first thing I noticed is that pretty much every photo including photos I’ve taken make these look way bigger than they are. Although just like a lot of the Bose Soundsport products you won't be lying on your side with these in. No Spin fit included. Just standard Block ears +. Not a real problem + I...
