All set up for the second gig. One hour to go. Excited. :)

I will enter the pic of the year contest as well, wish me luck!

I just meant that this reviewer seems to me like he has a listening preference, that I don't share. And is also price biased to a certain degree.

Well that puts things in a very different perspective.

I have the power of wet ears to help me get a perfect seal (or annoying rashes, depending on the IEM and the day). Also, save your first urine of the day, dip your tips in it, Voila!

Completely agree. Dusk was very underwhelming to me as well, even compared to its predecessor. The build quality is questionable, the app is atrocious and the DSP cable downright faulty. Overall a very cheap feeling release and Moondrop has lost my trust through this one.

Just SBC though...

You can mix instruments to have the effect of placement in space, even "above" and "below".

I ordered from HifiGo 😊

Mega5EST 7th Anniversary is on its way😁🤞

Oh and since you mentioned it, why no TIA driver?

Exactly. The driver being exposed like that is probably highly volatile.

I am also a musician using the Shure SE846 for live and studio drumming. I will be looking at comparisons in the future to see what these are bringing to the table.

Stating an oversimplified point to counter difficult discussions, polemic as usual. I expected nothing better. 🙄

Yeah I wondered similarly about people saying IE600 has weak bass. For many (not all) IEMs it's just a fit issue.

I for one, found the HD 650 extremely boring and love the HD 600. It would have been nice to find out myself how the OAE1 compares to that. :)

Does anybody know the average shipping times for HifiGo? I ordered 4 days ago with the fastest option, but they have not shipped the package yet.

Nope

Let's talk out those details in private. 🥸

I tested this one and thought it was great for the price! :) There was a sale going at HifiGo for them recently, too. Here are some impressions from the tour, mine seem more negative than they actually are... I swear. 🤞😁 I did like them.

Thanks! I'll keep an eye out in the future. For now, Mega5EST will probably make for a good baseline IEM, while Ts-316 and Mirai provide different tastes. :)

I am always interested in IMR IEMs as their choice of tech, especially the latest one (Enigma+?) , seems to be exactly what I dreamt up to be the ultimate timbre king. But I am too scared (and broke) to try them. How is Enigma?

Honestly, what is your favorite piece of gear right now though?

Hehe, what driver tech do they use? :D
