    Earbuds Round-Up

    How Ucotech sounds compared with VE Zen2 for example, from reviews seems like the ES-P1 has a laid back and warm sound. I have the Zen 2.0 but after a little wow for the bass at first now I don’t like the sound signature so much, too dark and congested for my tastes. Yesterday I spent at last 3h...

    Toneking Viridis (Green Mamba) arrived today, only approx. 1h listening to various tracks… only first impressions… but what a lovely buds! Hooked directly to Ibasso DX170 Viridis sound good, very good… but adding the old Cayin C5 with bass boost on and the Viridis becomes near perfect for my...

    iBasso DX170 You want your Music? It is right here. *** NEW Firmware: 1.06 Apple support and other additions! ***

    Thanks, so I can assume that at volume 100 (max) the line out is 3.2V... which is the volume value for the standard 2V?

    Thanks for your replay. I know, but shouldn't a Line Out be fixed? Why call it Line Out at this point and not Pre-Amp Out?

    Greetings to all, the. my DX170 arrived today, I still haven't had the opportunity to try it properly, I updated the firmware, installed the Google Play Store and disabled the animations ... the fluidity at the moment seems more than acceptable to me. One question, by selecting Line Out the...

    aesthetically they look a lot like the Fiio EM5, who knows how they sound. There is practically nothing around even on the previous model PT2021

    @cqtek Have you ever had the chance to listen to LBBs? I am very tempted by the QJ21 after reading your review and would like to see if it is a real step up from the LBBs that I am very happy with.

    Yes, 2021-11-30 update with second low shelf with 6db instead of 13db. With this settings i find LBBs on par with a lot of full size open back headphones.

    Forza AudioWorks Impressions Thread

    Does anyone know what the waiting times are for a Noir Hybrid HPC currently (or on average), I tried to write to Forza Audioworks both from the form on the site and via the Facebook page but I have not received a reply. Has anyone tried the Noir Hybrid HPC with the Hifiman Ananda?

    Are you using them with foam? Try them naked, I'm using mine with NiceHCK o-ring, tighter bass response, less mid bass emphasis and better technicalities. Even with Crisp Foam the sound is a little too "congested" to my ears.

    Someone can compare Ve Zen 2.0 vs EM5, some Blurs and Newbsound? Are Zen 2.0 a solid performer after several years?

    Earbuds Round-Up

    I'm discovering myself less bass lover than I thought... consider that I'm an happy owner and user of a pair of Stax L700 MkII. I like very much LBBs for their sweet sounding presentation (especially regarding both male and female vocals) and great detail retrieval without being harsh or...

    Yes -15db preamp done, I use Xduuo XD05 Bla with Burson V5i opamps (1W @32ohm), it's not a power issue, for me 15bd are too much. I've a X6 incoming, I hope they haven't that kind of bass, too much for me. This is you PEQ modified to follow my tastes: Low-shelf: 80hz, Q: 1, Gain: 5db Low-shelf...

    @RikudouGoku tried your PEQ settings but with a strong decrease of the 80hz Low-Shelf, 4/5 db works for me, 15bd boost makes LBBs sound like I'm in a cave. Fuller sound presentation with PEQ.
