i hv mine on middle setting (forgot what earsonic call it)  with dp-x1. its the one i like the best. im running balanced though.velvet is not a neutral iem. its moderately coloured iem, in a nice way. infact all earsonics iem i've heard are all coloured. the less coloured one is their flagship...

thanks. the latest firmware ,would this mean firmware where a sizeable part of owner claimed the sq was not as good. if thats the case i guess i better wait

anyone care to help?

few pages back someone mentioned that there's a way to circumvent volume limiter for HK based unit. Can elaborate how to do it? Thanks

Add Earsonic Velvet. Now it should be more than enough to make your head spin due to the choices :-p

forget this paired with onkyo dp-x1. its a mess of bloated ocean of bass. at least on SE. Havent tried balanced yet. Most likely not far different

Came to Velvet pretty much the same route as you. Mine started from SM64 to 846 to Velvet with a brief detour to JVC HAFX-850. In terms of comparison between 846 and Velvets  ,$1k vs 600, its a no brainer. I would be hard to make decision even if both are priced at 1k.

3+ hours is way unacceptable. Always turn on airplane mode. Put "standalone" button widget on the home screen so whenever you want to turn everything off just touch the button. Try to change track using the up/down track button, minimize screen on time. I easily gets 7-8 hours continuous play

you need to go to Play Store and search for with keywords Onkyo Music Player. It then will bring you to next screen where the description of the app. There you should find Uninstall button on the left and Update button on the left.

Got it figured out but still an idiot way to create a playlist. With this I have to manually create playlist in the beginning, add it one by one then start to listen it. Also seems its not possible to edit the playlist. Whatever its there in the beginning, thats it. To me, the idea of playlist...

hahaha.....let us know once you figured it out Sir. In the meantime, thinking of getting other player from Play Store. I use black player on my phone and like it. Will give it a try.

bought mine last week and havent got time to play around with it. Just copied my songs library to SD card. Purposely leave the internal memory not for songs. Previous owner of ak120 then 240 and now this. Plan to get rid of the AK if this is good enough.   QUESTION : How do I create a playlist...

thanks again. thats what i plan to do. buy cables and plug and have my friend make it

thank you very much.....just curious if these shop also carry iem cables?

nothing really fancy, something like viablue will do

thanks. is that on the street or shop houses along the street or any specific building i need to go?

can anyone enlighten me on where to buy diy parts at HK? looking to get some trrs 2.5" plug fr balanced iem. preferably mongkok or TTT or Sham sui po area thanks in advance fr any infos

new comer to the club. auditioned extensively around 1 hour back and forth between this and SEM9. Was leaning on SEM9 due to its neutrality, separation and better clarity but simply cannot justify its price tag of more than double vs velvet. Its nicer than velvet but definitely not double price...

late comer to the club. my usual portable setup is ak120+pico slim (pretty outdated already). iem's are sm64, shure 846, jvc ha-fx850, jh13 classic. I tried this when I was window shopping at HK audio shop last week.. Being out of this world for quite sometimes, I was really surprised to see how...

Noise isolation is fair, it wont create a tight seal like most of IEM. So you will still be able to hear your surrounding if you listen on low volume, any medium volume and up will dawn the ambient noise. I only own 1 portable amp which can be considered vintage nowadays, Pico slim, havent had...

Late comer to the club. Was at Tokyo last week, saw this at around USD200 so I thought to myself, what the heck, if I dont like it then just sell it at cost shouldnt be a problems. So far loving it. And let me add as a lot of people here say, this IEM bear a striking resemblance SQ wise with...

no need to subscribe to the context that bhse MUST be paired with uber expensive source. I paired it with Stello DA100 and happy with it. I know there's people who paired it with headamp pico and also happy with it.   Go for the BHSE. And Im sure you have more than enough time to save money...

You're probably right. Tubes are new to me. I just stick to stock from Justin, but as time passes by, I'm getting curious about rolling tubes, hence I resurrect this thread. Maybe a more comprehensive or concise list would be needed about the SQ based on each and own preference. And yes, these...

Sorry for re-surrecting old thread. I would appreciate if someone can help me to list all tubes NOS or new thats compatible with BHSE. From what I gather are 1. JJ EL34 2. Tung-sol EL34Bs 3. SED Winged C EL34 4. Sovtek EL34 (I think this is the default supplied tubes from Justin) 5...
