WHAT'S IN THE BOX
- Thieaudio Voyager 3 IEM
- Eartips - silicon tips(S.M.L)
- Cable
- Carrying case
Build/Design: Is nice ,the shell cavity is composed of transparent acrylic resin and you can see the internal structure with the 3 BA, has a unique real wood faceplate, it has 2 dip switches and 2 sound bores
Cable: Is good quality, 8 core silver cooper foil, nice, soft feel (Cable is Tripowin C8)
Ear Tips: They are tip-dependent. With with stock tips the sound was a little thin , with a strange " wet like " sound. I tried spinfit model cp155 and the sound didn't change very much. After listening and switching a lot of types of eartips, i found that MEMORY FOARM EARTIPS REALY CHNGED THE SOUND. The eartip must be inserted deep on the nozzle so that the sound bores are close to the top of the eartip (this will help you get direct sound from nozzle with no reflections). Comply eartips are very good (comply audio pro or Isolation T600), Spinfit (wich are my favorites) does't work so well with voyager 3 , they improove soundstage a little but overall sound is thinner.
With the memory foam eartip you will get a full-body sound.
Comfort/Fit: Is excelent, no problems using them for hours
Power: They are low impadance - 14 ohm and very sensitive to hiss, but the good news is that you don't really need an amp for them, even if i see benefits of using one
Isolation: Is very very good, one of the best i tryed
Eq Customization Switch : There are 2 switches : left for the lows and the right for highs
With both switches off- most ballanced config, best eq for mids, never harsh or sibilant but to a little too low - but easy to listen
With both switches On - The sound is more V-shaped, soundstage improoved , more air, more treble details, mids a little behind (not too much) - Overall pleasing signature, fun to listen
With Bass switch on and High switch off - The Bass, sub-bass is elevated, the mids still reccesd and highs relaxed
With High switch on and Bass switch off - light bass, has extended treble, more airy and more details but can be too accentuated in the air region for some genre like rock or if you are sensitive to high frequencies (especially if you are using silicone tips), if you like high, maybe it's the setting for you.
Sound:
For sound testing i used : Pioneer XDP100r and Hiby R3 , DAP's alone and paired with: Chord Mojo, Aune B1, Topping NX1s, Fiio BTR3 and i listened to some Flac files.
After geting the right eartips the sound is full-body, ballanced, nice warm tuning, with very good detail retrieval (for the price), separation is above average (very good for the price) but not the best over much more expensive iems, soundstage is a little above average ( it's bigger in depth, not so wide),the mids are detailed and vocals are very nice and clean especialy female vocals. The Bass is there, is resolving but doesn't have the DD impact and weight, i don't foud it lacking basse only the sub-bass region where is a bit to light.
Overall: I think this is a good value item and I reccomend it for a clean, balanced, very detailed and natural and versatile sound, very nice for vocals. I mostly reccomend it for audio monitoring, but also for music lovers that want to hear everything in his favorite music .I think a good buy for this money, but beware of using the right eartips, they really make difference
