CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest

THe form factor on these look great and i am looking for something tiny and hardly there. Are these better than the F1? And where did you find them?

No way to compare those. One is a single BA and the other a single dynamic

I found a seller on Amazon, that was selling the SpinFit CP800-L, with 2mm Nozzle Diameter, 2 Pairs of the Large for $11.

I have one pair of those that I have been planning to put on my NiceHCK DT300. I don't think the nozzle on this X10 is as thin as that but it will be interesting to see what you think. I am usually fine with the stock tips on IEMs that go straight in. It is the others that I fight with sometimes and end up trying 6 different tips. Spinfits are a last resort for me because they are expensive.

Thanks, just ordered the ED9, so I'll grab them after these arrive

Good choice! Honestly no point buying pricier IEMs once you have the ED9 :)

The TRN V20 is probably second to the ED9 for having the best value to performance ratio. Third in place is the **** ****.

Well you have to try these things, I was pretty impressed with the 4in1 for the price certainly good for a beater pair.
Just need something fun with good bass slam and a decent soundstage, I have my dm6's for when I'm home.
We're being very spoilt for choice these days.

Just a quick addition to my previous post. Since updating my Redmi Note 5 to Android Pie, it shows no longer AAC but SBC when BT20 is connected ...

Is there a setting you have to set? Like in developer options or something?

There is a setting in developer options, where you can choose between different modes. But no matter what I select, it keeps returning to SBC.

In the true wireless thread (link below) there’s people whose phones did that.

To fix it, they recorded some sort of macro to force it to stay on the better ones (aptX, etc).

I don’t use Android any more, so I don’t know the specifics. But if you ask there I’m sure someone will help explain what you need to do you to set up a macro.

i only bought this cheap earphone (Yotaphone 2 earphone) because i want to try the eartips, but turns out the sound is pleasantly surprising. for me it's a contender to the MH755, and with a more forward mids/less scooped V sound of the MH755.

i think I'll buy some more for stock

Wow crazy value if they're on par with MH755, how is the soundstage? I like the MH755 but soundstage is too narrow and intimate, and this flat cable looks better than default MH755.
nothing to lose to get one. Thanks for this discovery

*edit : weird default eartips, all seems very long (i guess for deep insertion), can't be worked with some normal iems especially with front vents.
