Smabat Store on AE has pretty good sale price for DIY M2 Pro especially the ST10S Gold driver. I was able to get custom M2 Pro set with ST10S driver and both tuning models for less than $30 Unfortunately they have one item per customer limitations set up on those DIY components which...

Anyone tried Smabat M2 Pro with ST10s Gold driver in them? Would be pretty cheap way of getting ST10s like sound for about half the price using DIY kit...

Hi, can anyone of those lucky enough to have CA16 compare them to TRN BA5? Trying to decide between those two but there is no direct comparsion yet.

I am not particularly treble sensitive so I believe that should not be the problem. Currently deciding between CCA C16 an TRN BA5. Don't mind +-$10 but the question which one should I get? :D

I am considering missing out on BT20 as it is still not as handy true TWS. I’ve lost my QCY T1 :frowning2: Maybe will replace them with T5 for those situations where even BT10 is too anoying to use... I should rather focus more on using ES100 and finally make custom short cables for it. If I’ll...

Hi, I am looking to buy TRN BT20s in summer sale and potentialy new IEMs after not buying anything for quite a while :) Currently I am mostly using the piezo hybrid that we shouldn't talk about (non pro) and still like it quite a lot (like the bass and details) and I would be totally ok to stay...

Calibration definitely not very precise. Matched against few KZ measurements from crin's db (IMM-6) ones.

Hey that first graph posted by Riz99 is actually mine :) I have posted it also somewhere in here few months ago. Measurements taken with 8k resonance peak according to crin’s technique. I like them too :) Really enjoying both N3 and **** at the moment.

@HungryPanda is right the cable is fine it’s twisted till the end but the cable has y-split and can be unraveled very easily. I have one on hand take a look:

Looks similar to this one from RY Earphone Store: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/bpvxWCql

That’s exactly what I am doing.

It would be really awesome to have consensus on this at least some unofficial guidelines for iMM-6 users here to make measurements at least similar. I’ve originally created my tube to imitate crin’s results thus that 8k resonance peak in my measurements. But I am definitely open to another...

Ok a get it. In case of tube coupler I’ve found out that I don’t have to force anything too much inside as long as you have right length of tube. @CoiL where have you found average of 12.7mm? I’ve found only 25mm as average length of ear canal. My coupler is probably somewhere between roughly...

Hey guys I've noticed that lot of you are using shorter coupler and thus moving resonance point beyond 8k opposed to what crinacle does with his measurements normalising insertion depth to 8k resonance point. Do you have any specific reason for that?

Trying to decide on 1 budget bud for upcoming sale. I've already have ton of DIY goods coming my way and need to cut my expenses but also wanted to have one of currently favourite buds as reference point to my DIY attempts :) So there's shootout: K's 64s ($7.72) Snow Lotus 1.0 plus CE ($10.92)...

That’s the fun :D Have you tried VK3 shell already? I have them but haven’t opened them yet.

Got my 2 pairs from eBay seller macpart168 today. They seem to be original and sound pretty good. Haven’t popped shells to check drivers yet, but I’ve measured them. Graph looks good and I enjoy them very much. They are definitely one of the best sounding budget IEMs I got. Will try MMCX...

Yeah they sound similar but ZS6 is definitely more aggressive and sibilant. As long as credit is given feel free to use my graphs.

Made FR comparison for @TechnoidFR today. ZS6 in green N3 blue

Was listening to N3 whole day and listening to ZS6. ZS6 has more bass punch and quantity. Especially midbass. Subbass extension seems similar to N3. Mids are warmer and bit fuller than N3. Treble is less extended and less detailed, but also less metallic. ZS6 is very sibilant and can me quite...

Yeah I know that the shell will change a lot but I still believe that at least general technical capabilities will stay on true for both shell types. I’ve seen that EMX500 build and it’s description leads me to believe that the recommendations based on MX500 shell types will still be at least...

It would be awesome if we could share mini reviews of drivers from Ali as a guide for others that are looking for one. I am now looking for drivers to my "Piano Forte" project using wooden shell: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/16mm-earphone-shell-Green-sandalwood/32837762672.html Looking for...

Just received my IMM-6, have N3 burned-in and could borrow ZS6. Probably will need weekend to dial in my setup but will try to do this comparison next week :)

Hi, can someone tell me what size and type of thread DMG filters use? Thanks :)
