    Will do! I still owe everyone the comparison of the incomplete Faaeal earbuds lineup Iris 2.0 Vs Snow Lotus 2 Vs Rosemary I wanted to do however. Hope I will find time for that soon.

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Thanks! 😊 I read @baskingshark 's review and his Rikubuds Saber 3 Review. What sold me was a review where somebody compared the Rikubuds Alter Rider 3 vs Saber 3 vs Grand Alter Saber 3. For this reviewer the GAS 3 came out on top of those 3. In the end the reviewer compared it to the RW3000. He...

    Funny that you mention Riku exactly now! I just ordered the Grand Alter Saber 3 from him yesterday. 😁 Already own the Berserker1 from his lineup... And yes, Riku is super nice, you've got the choice for shell colors and cable colors, so you get (at least cosmetically) a totally customized...

    From the for us europeans limited choice on Aliexpress I can wholeheartedly recommend the Faaeal Rosemary. It is my favourite set of the ones I own, and I own 2 more expensive sets in the 50-100€ price bracket. It is a warm sounding Bud with great bass, somewhat relaxed upper mids and nice even...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    I'd love to! But seeing that my girlfriend and me are having 2 kids aged 3 and 5 there is just no time for that. And I'd really, really like to keep that wonderful woman and the kids. I don't want to be the guy hiding from his family in the garage - not yet at least! ☺️

    Wow, that explains a lot! While EU regulations are very positive in some aspects like regulation of private data and how it may be stored and used in the digital age, it obviously also has its drawbacks. It is sad that it hinders smaller companies from doing business with innovative products in...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    I think I am reading the EQ numbers correctly - a 6db increase in volume corresponds to a doubling of sound pressure. By using a 5 db boost @ 1khz you are effectively nearly doubling the volume in that area. But as long as you can tune sound with physical measures you don't need to eq. It is...

    Great that you found your endgame! 👍However - can it be considered endgame, when you buy each and every bud of his and will be buying his new models when he will introduce them? 😆 I guess it is like wine tasting. If you are into that you will want to try lots of different expensive wines to...

    Dammit! AliExpress does basically nothing for me here in Belgium. I cannot order the yinman 600, and with that search, only 6 results show up: a pair of running shoes, and some tuning parts for BMW cars. Obviously I had to type in that search right away and was hoping for some outrageously...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Wow! A 5db boost is pretty extreme and means you are nearly doubling the volume in that specific region of the frequency response. How about stuffing some foam into the hole and then carefully cutting off the protruding piece of foam with a scalpel so it is flush with the housing? You could try...

    I do love the look of these - they really are a piece of art. Hope they will grow on you!

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Well... If the first thing you have to do after 10 min of listening is fiddling with eq and then sticking micropore tape on the vent then something is clearly off. I wouldn't bother trying to get used to the hollow sound. Probably ist is better to try to get your tuning solution to look better...

    Totally agree regarding the Yincrow Calf. Those are the least favorite of the buds I own, while also beeing nearly the most expensive. They are somewhat hot in the lower treble. Also bass rolls off very early. To me it is like a V-shape, but without the bass. 😅 Regarding tonality even the...

    You should be careful with your words here... Everyone following this thread would continue to enjoy some buds you built for them for years to come, which not only might be the ulimatestest satisfactory satifaction bliss, but might also secure you one of those spots in heaven!!! 😁 Those look...

    Thank you for the link, it is awesome! The possibility to easily swipe back and forth on the frequency band will make it easy to find hot spots in the frequency response of any headgear. This will actually be a lot more accurate than applying eq according to a frequency graph somebody made of a...

    Thank you for answering in depth to my questions/post. It is morning here in Europe and I am at work.

    You could also try to do a steep notch in frequency somewhere in between 6000 and 10000hz. The reasoning being, that this is what the frequency response arriving at our ears is like in real life. The notch in frequency response defines the height perception. Lower Hz notch frequency --> you look...

    Thanks for the recommendation! Let us know what you think once you have them. Everyone loves to read a review even if it is short. I had not heard of Blox before.👍😊 This is very interesting! Just a few pages back, someone else said they used the RW-2000 as their daily driver, was it...

    Hmmm.... Technicalities for me are Dynamics/Transients, Resolution (not only in upper mids/treble!, low distortion) Imaging and staging are a result of tonality/frequency response and technicalities combined. I think brighter tonality --> better imaging,wider stage. darker tonality with deep...

    +1 about the filters: try the minimum phase super slow roll off filter, it is the warmest sounding to my ears. I do not notice a real difference between all the others. You can also try using the crossfeed. (Xfeed in the app) try values somewhere in between 20 and 30. Values above 30 you seem...
