    Please be careful to really interpret "accuracy" into this graph, since it is a merged graph from 2 different reviewers with seemingly different coupler setups... I mean it's not totally wrong, but the Explorer graph can be off in some frequencies... which ones we cannot know unfortunately. But...

    The discovery thread!

    Thanks for your insight and I just can only agree 100%... since you mentioned NiceHCK, their 300$ 1DD flagship, the Himalaya (and yes, they call a 300$ IEM a flagship!?) is nothing less than stunning! This set outperforms many much more expensive IEM's and this with one single driver... whereas...

    I simply ordered them at HiFiGo, and I'm happy with them overall, because you can select "all duties and taxes paid by HiFiGo" and that works nicely for us here in Europe. (Ok, sometimes their support takes ages, but sometimes they answer within just minutes... a bit odd)

    Awesome! Good to hear... but these are so frickin' expensive and hard to source here in Europe.. still must have them asap :wink: :thumbsup:

    DUNU - Discussion/Impressions Master Thread

    Hey @DUNU-Topsound , please tell your marketing department I have found the ideal earphone stand for the Titan S2: 🤣 :L3000::thumbsup::thumbsup:

    The discovery thread!

    Yes, I can explain: I began my audiophile journey in the late 90s, while I was a young bum and the older brother of a good friend of mine was into this hobby, but solely with a room setup (which he changed of course every half a year or year, lol). So some weekends we sat down, had some good...

    Here a more happy update from my side, but sorry to hear the bad news about your set @jbfps116 , hope you can still sort it out somehow. Tried my new Sliivo SL41 now with the unusual cylindrical shaped DUNU S&S tips and I can't believe I write this now, but with quite some trial and error...

    probably the best sub 500 DAP at the moment. I'm a sucker for iBasso's clean and revealing house sound featuring lots of Cirrus Logic chips :beerchug:

    We only buy IEMs because of the Waifu's,, and the FQ response curves became meaningless anyway since our Waifu's now bring a nice dowry in form of DSP dongles into the marriage :laughing:

    Mid priced IEM cables thread.

    I cordially thank you, sir! That's an awesome service :beerchug: Maybe allow me a little background info: I have only a few, about 7, IEMs here at the moment, but two of them I'd never ever gonna sell. The SA6 MkII of course, and my NiceHCK Himalaya. Meanwhile I mostly use only my iBasso DX260...

    Mid priced IEM cables thread.

    Wow, thanks for your insights! One of my favorite sets are the DUNU SA6 MkII, with their rather unique "psychoacoustical brainf**k" tuning in the upper mids, presence, and mid treble region, but their soundstage, or better their perceived depth is known to be not the most impressive, the rest is...

    Try some nozzle tuning, put in a tube foam and stick a 500 mesh grid filter on top of the nozzle in addition, can't hurt and tames the upper mids and treble region audibly enough (I hope).

    Yes, the blue version, super nice, congratulations! What did I see? Hah, if you look closely, the structure of the SL41 face plate is identical to the DaVinci ones, just another colour. ...not too surprising though, they come out of the same factory.
  16. droid23

    The discovery thread!

    I don't have them yet, but they are on my short list actually. Now I'll try the DUNU S&S, some foam tips, the Velvets, and maybe some narrow bore Type-E's to maybe change something in the highs... but thanks to you and @Surf Monkey , you both have strengthened my decision to get the Liqueur and...

    The discovery thread!

    So, after the whole day of listening to the Myer Audio Sliivo SL41, my first initial feedback concerning sound signature, but for sure still too early for a final conclusion (especially for the highs) with not more than one day of listening, so please take all of this with a grain of salt, ok...

    Zeos' DaVinci Review is out: Don't be fooled by the video thumbnail... these colors are totally off and not the real thing... why?

    The discovery thread!

    Look what the cat dragged in... absolutely initial impressions (be aware): Noooiiice, I like it, and in the sub 200 class already audibly one of my best sets. Sweetspot momentarily with my DX260 and 4.4 balanced: "Short delay fast roll off" filter, high gain (as always anyway, lol) Fit is OKish...

    so in our common vice slang they're called PILFs? I like PILFs :sweat_smile: :zipper_mouth: One of the best dongles on the market, no doubt. Congrats!

    Greetings to you and my neighboring country! Keep on doing your thing, I like it :beerchug: :thumbsup: and as Dale Carnegie once said: “Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.”

    The discovery thread!

    Hello Timmy! I'm honored that Mr. DaVinci himself shows up in our "discovery round table".. A big high five man! (Mine was shipped tody by HiFiGo, so I ordered one anyway before we had any FQ response graph because I knew that DUNU and Timmy can only be a good collab, honestly, without...

    The discovery thread!

    So, the base target here is a target curve by a single person and his/her individual preferences. > That's the basis to understand the grey dotted line. Now, if you go and display a measurement of an IEM interpolated with this target, you can see how far off a particular IEM is to Precog's...

    The discovery thread!

    I was interested in it, too and I found the AFUL Explorer graph on Jaytiss Squig.link (and the DaVinci one still only on Super* Review)... so I tried to find a common target curve which I could actually compare the two graphs with each other. Result: Precogvision's target curve, again normalized...

    The discovery thread!

    A FQ response curve doesn't tell you about speed/attack and clarity of bass, so, depending on the dynamic drivers and their implementation, as well as how they manage the FQ crossover (bleeding), this could be still very much enjoyable. I fully agree with the Harman matched target curve from...
