FiiO FH5 - Quad Driver Hybrid In-Ear Monitors || Knowles Balanced Armature Drivers
So as it turns out removing the grille on the FH5 doesn't do anything besides making it more prone to clogging up. I knew it the second that one guy told us to do it... you know which guy I mean.. The guy that praised the BGVP DM6 to heaven. I ordered the DM6... It is one of the worst IEM´s I...- katzolik

FiiO FH5 - Quad Driver Hybrid In-Ear Monitors || Knowles Balanced Armature Drivers
Yeah. Right. I did Obviously. Otherwise, I wouldn't have made these assumptions. But if you search the thread even harder you will find the statement I quoted being made after these fiio statements. (that are poor English and maybe not that well thought through.) The statements from fiio do...- katzolik

FiiO FH5 - Quad Driver Hybrid In-Ear Monitors || Knowles Balanced Armature Drivers
You might not have that info: I would doubt that they alter tooling and manufacturing process for a color change.. Would be expensive. But would be nice if there was an official statement that the versions are identical. Maybe someone has both and can compare? Or knows someone who has the...- katzolik

FiiO FH5 - Quad Driver Hybrid In-Ear Monitors || Knowles Balanced Armature Drivers
I just saw the new Steve Gutenberg FH5 review.. and in fact the black ones come with bi-flange tips. But there is no reason new titanium batches wouldn't have these... I still want to know if there are additional physical changes to the black version...- katzolik

Yes i have read something like this in the comments on AliExpess. They give you a rondom Tracking Number and pretend that it was a logistical problem.. I don't understand why they aren't upfront about the shortage? (Audio&Video Professional Store)- katzolik

BGVP discussion thread DM7/ DM6/DMG and NEW BA series
Yeah i know but i didn't need to extend because they changed the status to "shipped". I asked the seller about the shipment cancellation. This is thier answer: "Dear friend, Sorry that your parcel maybe has been lost on the way. and we just got the information that it is not available now...- katzolik

BGVP discussion thread DM7/ DM6/DMG and NEW BA series
I've ordered DM6 on 11.11 from Audio&Video Professional Store on AliExpress I believe this is the one with the big discount. Some time later they changed status to "shipped out". Now it says "shipment canceled". I suspect that they set the status to "shipped out" to meet the AliExpress...- katzolik

Koss KSC75's. Dont Forget This Giant Killer in all the ''Hidden Gem'' Hype.
I got my KSC75X today and they sound superb! But when i play something with more bass impact in reasonable volumes the whole thing distorts really bad and makes a chirping sound when vocals are mixed with bass.. is this a known flaw or are mine bad? (Test it with Ariana Grande - God is woman)...- katzolik

Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion
8k is where du must harshness is so i am happy to reduce this. I am using an old sock =D so relatively thick material.. the huge 5k to 6k dip is normal on the 400i i think? I've seen that in every measurement.- katzolik

Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion
I've tested many things in the last days and came to the conclusion that the treble spikes are not caused by the driver but by reflections inside the pads. so I've lined the inside of my HM5 angled pleather with cloth these are the results: it really only effects the wanted area especially 8k...- katzolik

So is there a common mod that makes the 400i less bright and sibilant ? I have my 400i for a year now and upgraded to hm5 angled which are an improvement in bass but not in treble. any suggestions? THX- katzolik

Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion
Listen to Björk - Pagan Poetry ! =D The recording in this song defeats every headphone. regardless of volume^^ pretty much my favorite song tho. Therefore the additional harshness of the 400i is a bit annoying. Don't get me wrong.. otherwise the 400i sound much better than the 400s... I...- katzolik

Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion
the sibilance of the 400i is really messing me up. It is sooo much harsher as the 400s. Harsher than the old ATH M50. And even harsher the Superlux 668b. And i don't know why. =(- katzolik

Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion
Yes the 400i is more detailed. but i think it comes down to the treble difference. that i cant explain because as you can see in my measurements is roughly the same... Maybe the mid-range boost of the 400s kills the treble a little bit? I have uploaded my measurements using Room EQ...- katzolik

Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion
strange thing i noticed. The 400i have alot more treble than the 400s but the response graphs i took are pretty similar in the treble. how can that be? there is a lot of sibilance on the 400i i cant hear on the 400s.. Anyone has an explanation?- katzolik

should i return them? or is the possibility higher that the error is on my site?

Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion
I don't think so because i measured a lot of positions and merged it. the differences where small. The headphone rests on a flat surface when i measure so the seal should be given.. Also strange that the 400s has more bass regardless of the pad.- katzolik

Soo I have done some measurements ! And as i already heared the 400i somehow have las s bass than the 400s even with the stock pads. I have also included a friends fresh out of the box 668B for reference because this reading is quite similar to the one at innerfidelity...- katzolik
