That’s still only 10 per side. Where the C36?!

CTZ 42BA is here!!!

Actually these CHIFI manufacturers like to exaggerate the driver count by adding both sides' worth of drivers in the naming convention, this set is actually 21 BA per side. Still in the driver's seat (no pun intended) in the driver nuclear race, mind you.

How they even fit in all of them is beyond me lol. Are they perhaps using super oversized shells made for elephant ears?

There was supposed to be a C20 (10 BA) and then a C18 (9BA) but they never appeared.

Well I actually meant 1DD, 8BA if it wasn't immediately obvious so maybe add an extra 30095 for a smoother treble response so it would have the dynamic for bass, 4 mids and 4 tweeters, again like the Legacy 9, 8+1 or the NCM Bella(although this one is 4 way woofer, 4 mids, 2 tweeters and 2 super tweeters apparently and I can't find the crossover information for the 2 others)... To which i wonder if there's any point in a subwoofer, woofer, mid, tweeter and super tweeter configuration. And what's the point of a super tweeter anyway?

Dude, it’s SUPER!! What else matters?

Actually, I think it’s specifically meant to extend treble response, especially above 10KHz, like the supertweeter in the IER-ZIR.

The KZ ZS7 and BA10 are both 4-way designs. ZS7: 1DD + 29869, 31005 and 2x 30095. BA10 has 22955 bass BA instead of the DD.

Well I always though super tweeters were for 20kHz and over... IEMs for audiophile bats?

... I wonder if anyone has also mated a single full range BA to a DD to cover the point where the BA rolls off in the bass (60Hz and under?).

Edit: Double post?

These arrived today. They are really good lookers... Let's hope they sound good as well!

You will be disappointed unfortunately.

What's your take on it? I remember HiFi Dreams calling the CVJ CSA a cheaper VX.

The VX is too bright sounding with sibilance. Also overpriced.

I also have not tried a CVJ model yet.

 

[JEHL]

Speaking of HiFi Dreams, in his FD1/T2+ comparison, he said that if someone could somehow combine Thieaudio Legacy 3's bass, FiiO FD1's mids and TinHiFi T2+'s treble, it would be the perfect IEM for him. Does that sound expensive to do?

If I’m not mistaken, I think that supertweeters in the loudspeaker realm typically cover the ultra high frequencies, 20-40KHz, to allegedly add “ambience”. With IEMs it seems the challenge is to get treble extension, at a good level, above 10KHz. To me, supertweeters in speakers didn’t make sense, but I don’t have any.

I think the Penon Orb is a full-range BA with a DD. Though I’m not certain if there is a x-over.

The extra treble extension of a super tweeter reproduces upper harmonics which modulate lower frequencies and produce accurate timbre in frequencies we can hear.

How many times have you all heard of BLON killers or BL-03 killers and yet... It refuses to die?
