Also, if you're into foamies, the Symbio Mandarine-E gives the best of both worlds and doesn't wear out + keeps sharper highs/lows + extended soundstage vs pure-foam. IMHO, IME.

Have you tried it on the iSine? ImI user Sabre chipped Dacs, so imI not looking for extra treble, as Sabre institution is usually a little on the bright side. Additional treble added to what I'm already getting from the foam tips on the iSine would be Overkill for me.

Yes. I’m a tip rolling addict. The Symbio tips are currently on both of my IEMs but last month it was the spinfits. There’s no guarantee you’ll like aftermarket until you try a few and find what you like & fits you best. If you don’t want to spend money on a bunch of tips, the stock groovy tips are quite nice.

Outside of Comply, the spinfit and Mandarin are worth trying. Especially since they don’t wear out. In fact, I’d recommend to jump straight to them and skip Comply.


My big problem with Comply is that when they’re new, they sound crisp but then lose that edge after about a week or so. The Symbio Mandarin, to my ear, sound like the freshest Comply you can imagine and never dull. They’re such a cool hybrid.

Anyone please comment about android and iSine 20 settings? I like to use with UAPP.

Thanks in advance

Here. But with EQ-V2

I assume you intend to use ToneBooster that offers 6 bands of parametric EQ.

1. Start with the EQ I posted here
2. Since you can only enter 6 bands, in the above EQ (EQ-V1) choose bands 1,2,4,8,9,10.
3. Enter the Gain, Frequency and Q values in Tone booster.
4. For filter type, choose 'High shelf' for bands 1 and 10 in EQ-V1 and choose 'Analog bell' for bands 2, 4,8 and 9

This should get you quite close to a neutral. You can then adjust bass using band 1.
Use bands 2 and 9 to increase or decrease energy in the upper-mids.

Thanks for your reply. I will try it and let you know.

I feel like I can definitely see your point on Comply losing some of their advantwadv when it comes to normal IEMs. With the constant comoressioc and re-expansion, one would assume that the structural integrity would be compromised at some point, thereby compromising the sound. Thing is, the small tips don't get compressed in my ears. I'm a medium sized tip individual. Small can readily be slid in and out, and in a normal irm that would be horrible, however it plays the perfect role on the iSine. These earphones prefer the ever so slightly seal, to further promote the greater soundstage and airy presentation. Mid presence and low end aren't negatively affected by a reduced seal. The groovy tips, which are silicone still produced a much lacking frequency response to my ears, regardless of size used

Did your isine 20's come with ear locks? Mine came with all of the tips regular and groovy, the clear and black over ear clips but no earlocks. Just curious if there is a mistake on what I got.

Yes. Contact Audeze support.

 

[kukkurovaca]

IIRC, they stopped including earlocks in the package at some point.

 

[Cozmo85]

Will they send them to you? I really wanted to try them.

Kinda makes sense. They don't seem nearly as well designed as other sports hooks for in ears that look more like wings with kind of a golden ratio thing going on. Vmoda and Bose come to mind.

 

[AlwaysForward]

Actually, on that note, anyone know of any after market sports style wingtip earlocks which might fit a 6mm nozzle?

 

[AlwaysForward]

Found some on Amazon and bought em. Will report back. They say they fit 4mm-6mm. We'll see.

Hi everyone! I've been lurking for a while and finally pulled the trigger on a pair of isine 20's and a Chord Mojo. I downloaded EQ APO and have tried the V1 and V2 EQ settings from this forum and like them quite a lot compared to stock, but BR777 this is the best EQ settings i've heard yet on pc with the Mojo.

I have a newb question on your settings. What is the reasoning behind reducing the preamp so much? Also I don't understand the filters very well and if someone would be kind enough to link me to a reference guide for them that would be massively helpful.

I have also been running them through my Pixel 2 & Mojo using Spotify and have been quite pleased with the results even sans cipher cable. I have one last question for now. If i got a lightning to usbc adapter I know I could plug in the cipher to my Pixel 2....but would it work?

won't work. tested

Can someone comment on the isolation and sound leakage on the iSine 10?

Looking to buy a pair to use at home and during my daily subway commute but I'm concerned they won't isolate outside noises and disturb people sitting next to me.

Found a great price on a pair of lightning cable ones too.
