DAC: ES9219C*2 AMP: THX AAA 28*2 BT: QCC5124 Outputs: 3.5mm Unbalanced, 4.4mm Balanced Output power (balanced): 320mW@32Ω Highlights have been written here in case you missed them: 1. Three-level audio architecture(DAC+Lowpass filter+THX); 2. The digital module and the analog module are isolated and powered separately; 3. The THX amp increases single-ended power by 88% and balanced power by 30%; 4. Bluetooth 5.1, it supports aptX adaptive, which means lower latency; 5. Integrated metal frame, making Bluetooth transmission more stable and reducing...

As a user of many Dunu products, it's really a pleasure to review the Vulkan. Configuration: 2* dynamic drivers with diameter of 8mm + 4* mid-high Knowles + 1* dual Supertweeter Knowles. And my favorite switchable plugs (Dunu's quick-switch plug system is always my favorite). According to Dunu, the two dynamics are different: One is titanium-coated, and the other is made with a structural foam cell dome suspended on an independent surround. Design: Its shape is very similar to the EST112(or maybe it's the same as the EST112), even the holes on...

Kinera URD is probably the most beautiful iems I've ever seen The meaning of URD: URD is a word related to Norse mythology. URD is one of the Norn who are in charge of fate in Norse mythology, and is also known as the Dís of Death. She is the guardian of the well of fate under the Yggdrasil, which is also known as the URD's well. Exterior: Kinera does have made a lot of nice-looking iems, but I will give the best-looking prize to the URD. The first time I saw the URD, I was completely attracted by how it looks. The turquoise blue and green resin...

Configuration: One 13.6mm DD plays mids and lows + 2*60235 dual BAs play mids and highs + one 31736 dual BAs play highs. The silver cable is really thick(the cable got 224 wires!). Design: The designer may have designed the FH9 after being drunk - its design is so bold! So FiiO provides two color schemes for the FH9: All Titanium and Black+Gold. Unlike the titanium version, which has a subtle frosted feel, the black version has a smooth glossy shell, and its black x gold color scheme has a feeling of luxury. You can also see its semi-open design...

It's been a while since I got the Timeless, but I haven't reviewed it. Until today, I use a desktop amp to drive it and finally find its charm, so I decided to write a review. Before that, I used my phone to drive it, because of seeing its parameters: impedance: 14.8 ohms, sensitivity: 104db, I thought it was a headset that can be easily driven by mobile phones, but the sound I got was not as good as expected. But today, I plugged it into the K5Pro ESS, and the sound performance of Timeless has therefore made a qualitative leap. Appearance and...

Moondrop has always been a company pursuing Harman Target Curve, and so is their Variations. There's a small hole on the back panel of Variations, which should be designed for its DD. It is a three-way design with three channels at the sound outlet, each channel is responsible for bass, mids and treble. The shell is frosted and it feels good to the touch, but it looks a bit rough (like CIEMs that has not been completely processed). The Variations uses 0.78 connectors. I like 0.78 connectors for it seems to get a longer life span than mmcx. It...

The Dunu Titan 1 is my first, in a real sense, HiFi headphones, my preference of the Dunu has started from then on. And the price of Dunu's Titan series has always been in the range that I can afford, so I have bought the Titan1, Titan3 and Titan5. But when the Titan 6 was released, I haven’t been attracted by it. One was that its appearance was not that attractive, and the other was because its sound was no longer what it used to be. But just this month(Dec. 2021), the Titan S attracted me deeply, with a mechanical appearance, a reasonable price...

Sony has two headsets that I am most impressed with. One is the MDR-EX1000, and the other is the XBA-Z5. The Z5 is a BA+DD hybrid headset released in 2014. It was Sony's flagship product at the time, but the price was only about 500 USD. Indeed, its price does not seem to be "flagship-ish" enough, but I think the Z5 is almost the most "conscientious" or "being real" iem of the flagship portable market. A few years ago, in our country, if we mentioned the flagship in-ear monitors, we would usually think of SE846, K3003, Xelento, etc. Indeed, the...

I have a trial of each Anole product of qdc, yes I am very like this series of products. Design: Qdc has always been excellent in the volume control of the Universal iems, and the previous models like qdc3, Neptune have a wearing experience that is almost not lost to CIEMs. The V14 has 14 drivers(on one side), which is a large number, but its volume is still controlled at an excellent level. Configuration: 14 drivers on one side (10 BA drivers + 4 EST drivers), which is a luxry configuration. And this kind of configuration is enough to allow V14 to...

I have always been a fan of Final. I‘ve owned E3000, Heaven IV and I like its design and sound color/style. For the A8000, due to its high price, I have high expectations for it, but the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. The sound of the A8000 really can't allow me to give it a high score. Memers and guests who have read my previous post will know that I have heard and compared FD7 with Zen Pro. The former is a pure beryllium diaphragm earphone priced at only 1/3 of the price of A8000, and the latter is a pure metal diaphragm...

Originally posted at FiiO’s FD series share the same driver? & FD7 brief review Recently, I saw a rumor on the Internet that FD3 and FD5 are using the same drivers. I also have such doubts, so, keen to explore the truth, I borrowed an FD5 and an FD7 from the headset store to compare them together, and in order to distinguish FD3 from FD5 from the front, I also borrowed a black FD3Pro. FiiO’s FD series iems remind me of another series of products from a famous brand: Sony’s EX series. FD3, FD5 and FD7 are just like EX600, EX800st and EX1000 ---their...
