How would you rate the comfort?

@ugys it is very light and comfortable. Ear surrounds my ears no problem. It is light and doesn't feel you need to "baby" the headphone as you carry it around.

Just remember this is a bassy heavy headphone (And seeing the other reviews, treble-sensitivities comes on a personal case-by-case basis...As I seem to be an outlier for this headphone? I found it dark somehow? o.O

i just got the t50rp m4 an i want to upfrade the pads would any of these 3 fit an which would to a decent pick ?
the Ori Pads , Dekoni Audio for Fostex T50RP , or Alpha Pads (genuine lamb-leather)
i prefer angled

@forge457 I would pick the ori or alpha. Depends how much bass you want.
Ori = yes, Alpha = very yes (Bass)

thanks

Awesome review, @activatorfly. Douk & Burson ftw Love that relocation wiring job!

Hey thanks @SpaceOperaVillain glad you rate it favourably. That "relocation wiring job!" was a painstaking "royal pain in the ass!" Was it worth it?? You betcha! Will I take measurments via a FR style graph, that displays the before and after results?? NOPE NEVER! LOL>

I'm in the process atm of compiling my next reviews and really looking forward to posting them bigtime!

sure wished they had gone with two pin connection... they look great and I'm sure they sound great...

Mine is the 2 pin version

I agree. I love my Glacier. A true endgame.

At 50 hours burn-in: 1AM2 ~ Tidal streaming ~ EBC80 w/S2 cable, I agree .Thank you for writing what I am thinking and feeling!

About a month ago, I bought TRUTHEAR zero Red out of curiosity. I have never tried inear until now. It is much more comfortable and practical than over-ear headphones. (I have a Kennerton Gjallarhorn GH50 Jm. They are closed and sound fantastic.) I was so impressed with the Inear that I decided to buy something of quality. I will probably order the ECB 80. I have a Sony WM1Z. I modified it myself according to Nayparm. I hope there will be a synergy. Can you measure the nozzle diameter for me? I guess I have a smaller ear canal. I hope they won't be uncomfortable for my ears. And thank you for the review.

I've had them for less than a week and I'm very happy with them. They are now in use for 23 hours. I was a little skeptical before ordering them because I only found positive reviews. But now I can say that these reviews are true. The sound is very balanced, real, dynamic. There are details, lower bass. Nothing in the sound disturbs, does not disturb. Very pleasant sound character. I recommend these headphones.

sry for the low quality image

Great review, Dom!

Excellent review!

Thanks everyone! It's cool to be on the front page

@Death_Block,
Truly it is hard to tell as they both have the same model of 2X BCDs per IEM. But if you tune (with drivers) and hardware crossovers presenting your signature.........maybe the upfront mids over power it, maybe it is tuned down, but (the BCD) is still totally noticeable and of value. It’s EBC80 lows are a more clear and clean idea than the SHOCK. This owning up to the EBC80 having less mid bass and lower midrange, resulting in a faster cleaner sub-bass in the end. But also when you do this psychological change to the mids in relationship to the lows, the mid stage seems to enlarge even more? Just a guess?

Thank you for the very detailed review. I agree with your statements. How long does burnout last? I have 23 hours so far.

@Peter19500,
Thank-you!

Well the first 4 days are normally the most important, and do the most. Remember there are two DD which change, and the EST becomes more relaxed and detailed a little, slightly less grainy. But I would say most people would be fine with 5 days? I have more, actually I have 200 hours, just for the chance that something could be improved, but this is in no way mandatory, and could be thought of as extreme? Though there is talk of such long burn-in periods grabbing some audio improvement, it could be just placebo? After 5 days typically any changes are small. At 23 hours there will be a big change from out-of-the-box, but I would expect you to note more changes with longer burn-in.

@jbfps116 everything is described with TOTL language these days. Everything is holographic. Everything has thunderous bass

I bought and gave away the Cadenza and "Red". After that experience I'm pretty blasé regarding hype.

I think this is one of the best reviews I’ve read in my life. My hat goes off for you, sir

D'accord...it's pretty darn good, @FreeWheelinAudioLuv2 has an amazing ability to convey his first impressions & then follows up with an engaging / immersive descriptive review that covers everything you need to know, & then some!
