    Unfortunately not.. damn. They are still in Italian customs for export. The seller asked me not to ship with express courier, but with the normal post office, to avoid customs delays in Chinese customs. And this frankly worries me a bit, both for the increase in times, and (above all) for the...

    Thanks to both of you. I would certainly like to get both, but my immediate budget doesn't allow it. I will reflect on what you have written, although, to be honest, while I consider myself a basshead, I have found that the clear midrange (coupled with respectable bass and mid-bass) really...

    As far as I'm concerned it's an excellent device. An upgrade across the board compared to the BTR7. Leaving aside considerations and comparisons on the sound, for me it has the following advantages: - analog volume control (that was the thing I missed most with the BTR7). It is very...

    My path: VIC20-C64-C128-A1000-A500 I still have them all except the C128 and A1000. I started with the VIC20, which had a fantastic 5K of RAM, with about 1.5K of that dedicated to video RAM, leaving about 3.5K available 😂 +100

    Have you not encountered any traces of hiss using sensitive low impedance IEMs?

    The point you raise is correct. However, there are many cases of DAC/dongle with high impedance outputs that sound really good. L&P W4 (which I personally use) or some Shanling come to mind. Do they alter the sound signature of some hybrid IEMs? Yes, but the result is good (to my ears). I...

    Thanks for understanding 😂 Seriously. Of course there are better basshead IEMs. From what I could try and as far as I'm concerned: Penon Serial, QUATTRO, TURBO, SHOZY B2, Dynaquattro are all better. Where by better, I mean either more balanced, or more detailed , or less bleed, or better...

    Guys, I'm still a bit undecided between EBC80 and SHOCK. In any case, with which of the 3 cables did you get EBC80?

    I tried several on XD05-PRO, using a DIY board. I usually use SPARKOS SS3602, but I also used their bigger brothers (which sound even better). I also tried BURSON VIVID 6 and 7 and STACCATO. SPARKOS remain my favorites, but it's a matter of taste. There are others who have other preferences...

    Guys, from the height of my ignorance, I tell you that these are IEMs for those who want to listen to BASS BASS BASS. They are not balanced IEMs. They are not good for everything. I myself do not listen to them all the time and with all genres. There are days when I want that type of sound, I...

    I can't listen to it in NOS. We don't all have the same tastes, fortunately. There is room for everyone. I don't like it at all in NOS, and I barely tolerate it in OS. But I admit that it is not my favorite DAC in terms of sound. The product is excellent as a product, especially for the...

    Oh yes, it is not a set suitable for any musical genre. Frankly, I expected it when I ordered it. I am sorry for your disappointment. If you allow me a personal consideration, I am convinced that part of your negative judgment is due (as you yourself wrote) also to the bad unboxing experience...

    Shanling TINO. They are really good, excellent I would say: beautiful, comfortable to wear, quality construction, nice modular cable, with USB option. From a sound point of view, they have a very very clear and clean sound, with clear transients (clear, tight and fast bass, with a good bass...

    I'm trying this Lotoo PAW D2 interface. It is basically a USB-SPDIF/AES-EBU interface for STUDIO use. The peculiarity of this digital interface is that it also has an analog output (AKM4490) in addition to the usual digital outputs. It has a series of VERY valid predefined EQ profiles. It...

    I sincerely hope that at least the IEMs sound the way you like them. If that's the case, then so be it. They may be the best IEMs in the world, but the ‘esoteric’ configuration alone is not enough to convince someone to spend 2k EUR on an IEM from an unknown brand.

    @ToneDeafMonk Please post this EQ on your SQUIG, so I can use it in ROON.

    I like them a lot. Sure, you have to like the bassy sound. But they are good imo.

    GO-BLU is awesome, but you should not use sensitive IEMs, otherwise you will get strong hiss. I've been using it for about 1 week. Arrived with FW 0.4 (about) (😱). I noticed a bug on the battery charge indication. I read about others having problems with LDAC, but I haven't tried it yet. I...

    The mechanism worked, and I got the T2s, damn me. I haven't listened to the P7s, but for 150 EUR I'd personally get the LITEs. They're one of my favorite sets. They don't even sound like an all-BA. They're not a very technical and resolute set, though.

    If in a month you still confirm your positive impressions and come to the conclusion that it is better than H60, I will take these IEMs.

    I just hope the mechanism works, although to be honest I haven't decided yet whether to take them or not.

    What if you tried connecting the DSP cable without IEMs, see if it is recognized, and then connect the DUSKs? You didn't lose much, in fact I'd say you gained 😂 I'm just sorry I don't have your opinion.

    I received an email from Linsoul stating that those who purchased the 1USD reservation card to get the 10USD discount will not only have the discount validated, but the discount will be increased to 20USD. Wow. 😂

    Well, I haven’t done a careful and thorough reading of the articles, but what I’ve read is perfectly in line with what you should expect from an R2R enclosed in a dongle. R2Rs are not silent, resolute, precise DACs. Also for these reasons they have been replaced over time with other types of...
