Cayin N3Ultra is Open to Pre-Order Now!
Fair enough. My main problem is that my audio app of choice, Musicolet, doesn't seem to work well with my Hiby R5 Saber, which runs Android 8.1. Then again, that might just be because of the cheap, crappy SoC Hiby used, so maybe the Cayin N3Ultra will perform better?- Intralaust

Cayin N3Ultra is Open to Pre-Order Now!
I'm hardly an OS snob, but Android 8.1 is downright archaic at this point. That said, it's the only real hang-up I have on an otherwise interesting looking DAP. Does Cayin have any intent to update the software at some point down the line?- Intralaust

Earmen Angel bass EQing options?
I recently bought an Earmen Angel that was on sale. It's a truly stellar device, and in many ways, it's everything I could ask for in a portable DAC/Amp. One minor gripe I have, however, is that the bass response is just a bit too polite for my tastes. By which I mean, the bass is more fast and...- Intralaust

For Sale Unique Melody Mest Mark 2 (UM Mest MK2)
- Price
- 799.99 USD
- Condition
- Excellent/Like new
- Negotiability
- Firm
- Ships to
- United States of America
I bought this set during a Black Friday sale last year from MusicTeck. While I love the sound signature, the nozzles are sadly a bit too wide for my freakishly small ear canals. For everybody else, they should fit perfectly! Note: I only took these IEMs out of their box maybe 3 or 4 times...- Intralaust

iFi audio iDSD Diablo-X - eXperience innovation!
I apologize, but I'm a little bit confused. Is xMEMs a type of on-device speaker, or is it an internal hardware system that enhances the playback of IEMs and Headphones?- Intralaust

Reply to review by 'Intralaust' on item '64 Audio U4s'
Good review! Out of curiosity, have you tried the 64 Audio A4s? Supposedly, they're the custom equivalent of the U4s, but with slightly less treble energy.- Intralaust

The blessing has returned and it's only getting better: blessing 3 is up to the game
*Slight rant incoming* While Moondrop's IEMs are pretty solid (at least the ones I've demoed), I've never understood why their mid bass is so anemic. I get that everyone has their preferences, but to my ears, it feels like a big chunk of the lower frequencies have been scooped out. It makes...- Intralaust

Kilobuck IEMs?
Thanks for the recommendation! I actually made a post regarding my demo of the Z1Rs here: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/sony-ier-z1r-mids-not-what-you-think.967503/ Long story short, I loved everything about them except for some weird, veiled, mushiness in the mid-range (as opposed to...- Intralaust

Kilobuck IEMs?
TBH, I'm kind of looking for an all-rounder IEM. I tend to listen to a lot of soundtracks, thrash metal, post-rock, and occasionally dark ambient music. My preferred sound signature is a neutral-ish, slight V-shape. My current daily driver is the Fiio FH7, and while it's tuning can be a little...- Intralaust

Lotoo Paw 6000 Opus compatibility?
Hello, Does anyone know if the Lotoo Paw 6000 is compatible with the Opus file format? I ask because I have lots of YouTube rips (Opus wrapped up in a WEBM container) of songs that were never uploaded anywhere else and I have no other way of accessing. I understand that the LP6K is a few years...- Intralaust

Sony IER-Z1R mids? (not what you think)
Yes, I tried the Final Audio Type E Clear/Red tips, Spinfit W1 tips, and a few miscellaneous Fiio tips. All of them yielded similar results, though I do wonder how foam eartips would have sounded.- Intralaust

Sony IER-Z1R mids? (not what you think)
Hello, So recently, I got the chance to demo the Sony IER-Z1Rs. Shockingly, they actually fit my ear canals! As expected, the sound quality was out of this world. Having said that, there was one thing that bugged me about the overall sound signature: the mid-range. And not in the way you may...- Intralaust

Hello! I know I'm kind of late to this, but what kind of cables are you using on your z1r? I've been looking all over for aftermarket cables for my pair, but I can't seem to find any that give me the right fit.- Intralaust

Great review! Out of curiosity, have you listened to any of JDS Labs' products? If so, how does the sound signature of the Angel compare to something like, say, the Element III?- Intralaust

Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?
I've been rocking my Fiio LC-BT2 neckband with a pair of Fiio FH1s for a couple of years now, and they're been a real lifesaver for me. Yeah, they don't sound quite as good as some of the pricier offerings on the market, but they have a VERY long battery life, which is extremely helpful when you...- Intralaust

Fiio FH7 Yes ... or No?
I'm pretty late to the party on this, but I've had a pretty good experience with the Fiio FH7s. Granted, they were the first "hi-fi" set of IEMs I ever bought, but I still think they hold up quite well relative to their (second-hand market) price. I'll grant you that they could use some more...- Intralaust
