Seems to be flying under the radar. Same can be said for the Orb.

Which tips are you using? I found the stock green tips to be nice, but Final Type E tips tamed some of the highs/mids. Example of songs that you're experiencing this with?

I got some H40's in today and I have to say that I like what I'm hearing. Won't go into details yet since I've only been listening for about 40 min. to an hour, however, I can say that I am quite happy with my purchase. The shells were a bit off-putting at first since they are some thicc boyz...

@IEMusic could shine some light on this

Is the Tea easy to drive? Thinking about whether it'd sound good via iPhone dongle (mobile) and connected directly to laptop (MBP).

The authority has spoken!

Of the ones that have been in the head-fi marketplace, I'm positive that 80% of which have been the V2. My understanding is that there was a only a short run of the V1 and many of which were bundled with early sets of the V2. Someone please correct me if I'm off-base here though (@Dsnuts )...

At this point I've passed on two sets of H40's in the classifieds because they didn't have the 3.5mm cable. Don't think I'm going to let it happen again. Itching for a new set of IEM's but still not sure that I want to fork out full retail for the H40's. Gah...

Good question. Actually been using Spiral Dots with mine as of last week (also ordered from Penon). For what it's worth, I was using Final Audio Type E tips before. Generally, the Spiral Dots open up the sound a bit more. The first thing I noticed was that the lows (particularly sub-bass) aren't...

It's quite a shame, but I'm sure there's some sound reasoning.

Very close to buying an H40. Disappointed since it seems like Penon will not have it on sale for 11/11 though.

Haven't seen the price of it this low for a while!

How does the imaging/instrument separation of the Orb compare to the ISN H40? Was ready to jump on the latter, but between here and reddit, I've seen quite a few comparisons between the two IEM's. Would be powering these via a phone or laptop (jazz/rock/hip-hop/r&b if it matters).

Not a fan of the ZSN or ZS10?

Noted. Thank you for the clarification. And thank you as well @IEMusic

Are all the AZLA Sedna tips "sticky"?

It's a shame, since FiiO seems to have a gem with the FH3. They should be more supportive of it.

I'm curious, are there any genres that the Tea seems to excel at?

Got to update your signature now.

Based on the early reviews, it sounds like the BL05S is what the BL05 should've been / what fans might've been expecting. Not sure that I'll be purchasing, though I must say that I do like the color.

Excellent. Cheers, mate! :beerchug:

Hey all, First time poster, long-time lurker. I'm looking for an upgrade from my current daily driver IEM (the infamous BLON BL-03) and am greatly considering the ISN H40. Don't get me wrong, I like my BLONs, but I'd like to treat myself to something new. However, I just want to make sure that...
