Even more bass then the usual Timeless? That goes to far in my opinion. I was almost excited for a new driver.

Yeah I would rather like an etymotic version of the timeless instead, with flatter bass and darker treble lol.Even more bass then the usual Timeless? That goes to far in my opinion. I was almost excited for a new driver.

Everyone is different - some will love the new Timeless tuning, others hate it, still others will be somewhere in between… Will be fun to see what the feedback will turn out to be once units ship!
maybe it's a silly question... but anyone knows how to call the MMCX connection on Timeless stock cable? I mean, its curve... but IDK if it has a name... and, I'm pretty happy with the stock cable (3.5), but I'm thinking to get a 4.4 one... any rec? THX

Are you referring to the curl at the end near the MMCX connector? That's pretty much how they all come. It's to fit around the ear.

Same housing and nearly twice the amount of bass is the only change?! Pass. Guess somebody will like it but damn that will be a lot of bass.

I've got a 4.4mm Original Cable for sale; PM if you're interested.
I literally just took a photo of a pile of cables I'm going to be selling either as 1 offs or as an entire lot,
Thank you! I already sent you a PM... what cable are you using on timeless?It's simply a curved housing.....

I have read a good 100 pages of this thread, first 30 and last 70ish. Have read all about the spike in some bits of the treble.
With that in mind, no amount of EQ seems to help with the headache I get without fail listening to these. I upgraded from a pair of Kbear KS2's, much cheaper IEMs. Those I used for two months with zero issues, slowly coming to love the sound of IEMs. I like how these sound even more, which sucks because I can't use them for any extended periods of time. Tried switching between the many tips, tried a couple different cables. Same issue, I develop a headache after around 5 minutes using these. Again, no matter the EQ same issue.
If anyone has had this problem and managed to solve it, please LMK how. Really don't want to return these.

Never had this problem with the 7hz Timeless. In fact it's kind of the opposite....can't get enough of them when working/sleeping. I have one pair that is tied to an iBasso DX320/Amp12 card, that I use for sleep/noise isolation (wifey snores) as well as general listening. Another pair I have mounted on FiiO's UTWS5 bluetooth setup for passive noise isolation at work (motorsports). Works well. It's also a very nice setup when all is quiet . Recently added some JVC Spiral Dots in the M/L size...expensive, but they work the best of all the tips I've tried to keep the Timeless in the ear canals. So far, very little adjusting/re-insertion ever needed.I have read a good 100 pages of this thread, first 30 and last 70ish. Have read all about the spike in some bits of the treble.

Tried foam tips? I found foam tips really toned down the upper range .I have read a good 100 pages of this thread, first 30 and last 70ish. Have read all about the spike in some bits of the treble.

I don't totally get what you are saying here. Are you getting a headache from the sound, or from the fitment of the Timeless?I have read a good 100 pages of this thread, first 30 and last 70ish. Have read all about the spike in some bits of the treble.

If it is because of the sound, I suggest you go to this Online Tone Generator and do a sweep to find out what particular frequency it is that is not agreeing with your ears, then simply EQ it down, and do another sweep to test it.
