i dunno, maybe they should mention semi-open back design if that is much of a problem, but this isnt the kind of iems you'd use on the train i feel like (theyre 400 bucks) so the openness isnt an issue when used at a desk- Half Note

The tonality is very reminiscent of the Monarch mk2 I find, the Pilgrim has that ”harsh crossover” feeling- Half Note

@Artmuzz the copper color case seems to be shipped with the earlier models, and the dark grey version is just the same as the IE600, ie they've been using the same case for the 600 and 900 going forward since the release of the 600- Half Note

@Rob49 I wouldn't take these on a plane, but they sure are an incredible pair to have around ! They really reveal everything about your setup too, so if you like your player these could be a great addition.- Half Note

Reply to review by 'Half Note' on item 'KZ x HBB PR2'
@4ceratops this is just my experience with it, the irregular treble with it's dips and spikes are just a pain to listen to. It's not a treble Canon, just an uneven mess of a tuning. My copy may be bored I dunno- Half Note

Tansio Mirai Impressions Thread
With the 100 setting I felt like the bass lost some precision, but yes you can definitely EQ it up. It's not a particularly slammy type of bass, but more of a 2.0 monitor setup. You hear the bass, you don't feel it. You could check out my EQ section for the Sands, a lot of people liked it from...- Half Note

Tansio Mirai Impressions Thread
Yeah it's kinda needed, if you feel like it's too harsh I'd recommend you change the cable. Makes a huge difference on this IEM. I think the S&S are the best tips for the Sands, if you have fit issues they recently released an XL version- Half Note

Yes, it's very easy to drive. I still think you'd benefit from a good amp, as planars always tend to change when given enough juice.- Half Note

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
These were my first impressions, and the bass was definitely present on the TC, I think it's just a show thing. The clamping pressure was so light that head movements would throw the headphones out of place, which is what surprised me the most. The headband design is something you could get used...- Half Note

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
Abyss MR I tried the MR side by side with the TC yesterday, and it was my very first time listening to Abyss products. I must say I was quite impressed by the TC, but letdown just as much by the MR. I think the main problem is the fit, the clamping pressure is nonexistent and it makes for a lot...- Half Note

This product was bought on my own without any contact with any brand, store or else. This is purely a consumer review, void of any bias or incentives.

TOPPING D70PRO SABRE DAC and A70PRO Amplifier is Up
Yeah I noticed that too, Topping has this bad habit of always playing tricks in marketing. We'll have to see if this actually outperforms the A90D but still, the output they're getting from these small chassis designs is nuts- Half Note
