The conclusion I've reached now is that the low end BCs are definitely offering some tactile sensations and other aspects I cannot pin down as easily, that even large, fast DD's cannot produce. It's an added level of immersion into the music that makes it a little more like listening to good...

The wind is a much better and cohesive all arounder that you could be hard pressed to identify as anything out of the normal (aka, you might think it just has really good bass extension rather than Knowing there is a BC, since it essentially looks and feels like any other IEM). The plutus beast...

So, I listened for a few hours last night to the plutus beast and I do enjoy it. OOTB tuning isn't great, so it's probably a pass for those who don't EQ/DSP unless you want a really.... Euphoric and direct sound (stock tuning will be fatiguing for most, but part of that is the bone conductor...

Just got my set, burning in as we speak. Listened for a second and the bass is pretty head rattling with the MSEB/EQ settings I've been using on the wind. I don't really have initial impressions of the sound outside of that and that they're very sensitive and much easier to drive than the...

I didn't realize the kinera celest plutus beast existed. 1 low end BC, 1 ba, 1 mini planar. Blind ordered them. Hard to pass at $90. Anyone tried these? Edit:I see in the thread now.... Sounds like it might be neat but probably inferior to the wind. Guess I'll find out. Variety is the...

Bright? I don't get bright at all from the wind but then again I'm saying that as a BQEYZ set. My other BQEYZ are all brighter than the wind. You do need to listen loud. The wind seems like it'd be pretty pointless if you listen at lower volumes. I don't pretend to know what reviewers are...

I have awakened from a long headfi slumber to join this thread. Blind bought the BQEYZ Wind a few months ago and feel like there is no going back. Is the Bgvp DMA worth it if I have the wind? I might just have to blind buy them since I absolutely love the Wind and am. trying to keep an eye...

Excellent packaging, speed and condition. Thanks again!

Looking for a pair of focus EDM IEMs. Want to do PayPal goods and services. Thanks. Negotiable on price.

Searching this thread and around but so far with no success, but on the latest firmware the 3 physical buttons (last, next,play/pause) have stopped working completely (meaning with the screen on or off). I've ensured the settings are all good and cycled them all on and off (using the physical...

Ok, just getting back in the game here but I'm done with Hiby hardware after all 3 of mine have had major issues. However I still need Hiby music so I can use MSEB. Anyone use Hiby music on here and run that and MSEB without issues?

So I give up. I was probably one of the first owners in the US of the R6 Pro, but the damn thing just keeps going down hill. There's so much crackling and popping and interference noise it's ridiculous. The battery is essentially worthless now, I sometimes can't even get consistent power...

Well, I got them for $27 on a lightning deal... But the left earpiece is DOA. Waiting for a replacement but the chifi QC in TWS pairs seems to fit with my preconceived notions of them as being even worse than regular chifi given the increase in things that can go wrong. Seem pretty slick...

Ok. Decided to start watching movies in bed on my phone with wireless IEMs. The dongle I have is less than ideal... Want a cheap, ok, easy, TWS... What's a good starter set, KZ SK10, kz z1 pro? Others? Trying to keep it cheap and basically for this sole purpose... Sick of the dongle.

Nah, I've got a day job working for the man, but the fun money is coming from my crypto mining now. I decided on a one to one (4.4mm) cable ratio a while back. So any other cables, original 3.5mm, old 2.5mm, xlrs, etcetera are in original boxes while the 4.4mm cables are all attached to pairs...

That's a much better setup than mine, mine is more, "hide how many pairs I have from my wife" organized in a drawer in individual cases.... I hear the mangird xenns up is a really really good pair as well. I should try the tea too, but I feel like next time I pay myself, the xenns up will be...

Doesn't surprise me. The CL2 was a great product.... But not something you can make a company out of. There are definitely some names I wouldn't mind seeing go down, because it would mean we get better gear at better prices. @Igcubana has my Rah. Never was a huge fan of their sound. IMR may...

Yeah. The i3 made my $900 RHA CL2 more or less obsolete.... The CL2 is much cheaper now but unless you really want a pure planar, I don't know why you'd pick it over the i3 other than fit.

RHA CL2 is a very good set for a single 10mm planar, some people don't like the 8k peak, but eq fixes that easy. Most bass slam of any planar I've heard.... Very impressive speed, mids and imaging.

I like the EST drivers when they're done well and subdued. The imaging is fantastic without the graininess I hear in lots of BAs. But I also wouldn't mind the planar taking the treble duties (and don't get me started on piezo). I do need a DD subwoofer though. Planar just doesn't slam like...

Plenty of 10mm planar drivers out there that are full range and sound quite nice and might disagree with you.... Would rather have bone conduction than a mediocre or poorly placed BA imo.

Same drivers, smaller enclosure, nicer cable, some retuning.... I can't help but feel a bit disappointed honestly but it makes sense as a "pro" model. Hopefully the sound is better but the sound of the i3 was fantastic and probably can't be hugely upgraded with the same drivers. I also worry...

So... Is it the same driver configuration as the i3 (one DD, one planar, one BA) or are they the exact same models of drivers in the i3 pro as they were in the i3? Not that it really matters, I'll be instantly ordering them as soon as they're available.... But it'd be good to know

You can definitely see the DD enclosure along with BAs (could be Sonion ESTs though too). Should be an interesting one! Hopefully more info soon....

I pre-ordered from penon. Couldn't resist....
