Thieaudio Oracle Mk3 priced at 589USD. I like the way ThieAudio keeps the price nearly the same for their upgrades. Interesting configuration on this one.- nihalsharma

Simgot EM10. The sound is definitely premium. Don’t find it overpriced, at least for the sound quality it gives. Tons of details. Smooth sound. Not bright/sharp like the earlier Simgots sounded. Its very balanced. Clean and sweet midrange, and very nice resolution too. Nice technicalities, nice...- nihalsharma

Hello friends, A new surprise is just round the corner. I think Meze Audio has done an outstanding job with the Alba. The bass on it is solid. Neutral-ish signature with a hint of warmth and just the right amount of treble. Not quite technical but not far behind either. I think if it's priced...- nihalsharma

I find these ear tips so trippy. These are the Final ear tips which come with Dita Project M. I find it so relaxing - to stare at these in a dark room with the iems in my ears. I had seen people posting pictures of glow-in-the-dark ear tips but never thought it would be so satisfying. Dita M is...- nihalsharma

Dita M is a solid and very potent IEM to start with. If used with a decent source, it sounds just awesome. It can scale really well. The bass impact becomes better, and the sound opens up a lot with better sources. It can be used with a decent dongle, too. However, I do not think a basic dongle...- nihalsharma

Alpha Omega IEMs Thread
You won't believe how much power the Ra can take and it sound quite open and spacious. A good DAP and Aroma A100TB is a killer combo for Ra. With Earmen Angel, the power helps, but the DAC on Angel is not enough.- nihalsharma

Alpha Omega IEMs Thread
Oh, you will be treated with the best quality bass. Welcome aboard 🤩 If my memory serves right, the bass on Dark Sky is more of midbass and a nice subbass. The bass is quite solid and gets boomy, sometimes which is overwhelming. I loved that set when I had tried it for few days sometimes back...- nihalsharma

Alpha Omega IEMs Thread
If you love the Orivetti OH700VB, you will like the Ra too. When I compared the Ra with the OH700VB, I found them equally good. Some aspects of Ra are better, and some of OH700VB. I may be lean towards Ra, if asked about my personal preference. Also, Ra needs a good amount of power, while...- nihalsharma

ISN Earphones impression thread. New ISN H60!
Yes, I will change the cable after few days. It’s limiting the IEMs capability. It’s good to spend a decent time with the stock set up and then move on to change cable. The changes and refinement the better cables bring is very very satisfying.- nihalsharma

Reply to review by 'nihalsharma' on item 'Penon ASOS+ (The Purple Plug ASOS Cable)'
One word for this cable is - Wow. I paired this cable with 64Audio Fourte and the synergy is very good. The best part is - treble is still very controlled and the clarity in sound is amazing. Love this cable. I believe it’s gonna be a love affair for warm iems. Need to spend some more time.- nihalsharma

Haha, yes, right. For a cable, it's not low-end (price-wise). Nevertheless, I found it had decent synergy with some IEMs I paired.- nihalsharma
