I was wondering what your method of burning in IEM's is.
I know that the time the IEM's spend being burned in varies from person to person, but what I'm interested is what tracks do you play on the, and at what volume?
If anybody can leave a link to the music/noise they use for burning in, it'd be great.

I currently have the KZ ZS10 Pro. I really like the separation from the multiple drivers, but would love to have a more controlled sound (without loosing separation). Would you recommend the TRN V90 or the LZ A6Mini? Would those be an worthy improvement?

The mids in the V90 is more recessed than the ZS10 Pro, not really an improvement but it is a bit more fun sounding imo.

The MH755 is definitely NOT suitable for sleeping. It really hurts the ear while lying on your side.

One thing I require of earphone if it is going to be used for sleeping is that I am able to determine which side is left and which side is right in the dark.
I find the KZ ZSN quite handy for that purpose.

If I plan to use an IEM for sleeping, I wrap a small bit of electrical tape on the cable that goes to the right side.. where a mic would be if I used iems with mics. I can feel it in the dark and the small amount that I use looks ok .

Just bought another pair for less than 9€ during last sale (w/o cable). Added a Nicehck cable for ~ 6€. Very nice and comfortable combination.

yep, confirmed !

those are like the best earphones out there with an excellent fit, good sound - the option for upgrade or replacement cables is another plus

they can still hurt at times when lying on the side of the ear with one of the harder pillows though

Thank you, I'll check it out. One concern which I have is that I want to be able to use my phone, so if somebody else has a different method which I can leave to work on my computer overnight, it would make life easier.

Nice to hear about your ambition to step up your chifi gear. Here's the thing, TRN V90 is a beast, if you have a smaller budget, it's a very good option. However, if you have the budget for the LZ A6 mini, buy it without questioning it. If you haven't noticed, many people consider it the best sub $150 IEM, so far I only heard very good things about it. THe LZ A6 mini is a whole different league, it's a BIG step up from the sub 50 dollar IEM's. I would say go for it, it's a grail and definitely a game changer. If you have the budget for both, go for it, but to be honest I don't see a reason for you to buy the V90 is you have the LZ A6 mini, the only reason which would make sense is that you can appreciate the A6 mini's brilliance.
Hope I helped, I'm pretty sure anybody here would recommend the A6 mini over the V90.

I have both V90 and LZ A6 mini and concur the LZ A6 mini is superior in every way

When I use my PC to burn-in IEMs (or headphones or buds) overnight, I just queue up a bunch of albums of various types into Foobar2000 and then let it play at normal listening volume for hours or days. I always listen first to a couple of different types of songs to make sure the volume is at a safe level.

Arrived Friday and currently burning in... but do they need it? I have no idea... they sounded awesome out of the box. But I burn-in.... just in case....

LZ- Z05A

Yeah I keep seeing this, might have to just get one already

 

[DynamicEars]

And dont forget LZ A6 mini is actually a $180 IEM that sounded like more than their price.
Just happened that they are selling them om discounted price lately which are absolutely no brainer to get 1, there is no reason not to get them even you already have so many IEM, even you are about to break your promise, even you are receiving ultimatum from your wife, even your wallet are short..

Have you been eavesdropping at our house?

So what's the consensus with 2pin or MMCX on the A6 mini, one person had issues with the 2 pin iirc which was surprising. Typically the issues are with mmcx

Do you know if I can use the cable of the Moxpad X3 for the Tennmak earpiece?

it settled then.. I'll be waiting for the next A6 discount

different ears, it's definitely sleep-able for my ears

have you tried the Phonak audeo line? it's old iems, but they are some of the most flush iems I've ever encountered. there's also soundmagic PL50, and massdrop EDC

any iems rhat share the same form factor as the shure 215 (like the Audiosense) might fit the bill, just make sure to pick single driver BA or micro driver

edit: have you tried the Blon BL-03? that's also quite flush and comfortable for sleeping
