By the way, was gonna consider pulling the trigger on sr25 cause of great battery life compared to sp1000m. But after reading your impressions, I'll have to start look into warmer sounding daps

solaris SE still up for trade if anyone's interested, open for anything

Thanks! I’ve actually been eyeing the S1Nah not just you. The solaris is a pretty flat sounding iem, so I found it pairs better with warmer sources. In my case I preferred the lotoo paw s1 with the solaris over the cayin n6ii.
It’s not a bad DAP but it just doesn’t pair to my liking with my Solaris. I’m guessing because of the output impedance.By the way, was gonna consider pulling the trigger on sr25 cause of great battery life compared to sp1000m.

I finally received a 2.5mm-to-3.5mm adapter for my ALO SXC 8 cable and it has made my Solaris OG (Original???) really added a slight shimmer to the treble sparkle...all without harshness. The signature is still rather mids-forward...but really has the mids corresponding to other ends of the sound spectrum. The bass is really-really dependent on how the recording was produced...like my HD250 Linear I. I can quite tell whether the added treble sparkle is adding shimmer to the holographic soundstaging and imaging...but it is really fun to search the details. Absolutely enjoying ALO SXC 8 right now.
My worst nightmare... since mine alrd starting in the edge...
Did the sound change btw ??

same problem like mine, no sonic degradation but it looks ugly with uneven flaking on the surface
WHAT THE... do you knock someone with it... ??? #JK...same problem like mine, no sonic degradation but it looks ugly with uneven flaking on the surface
Glad to hear that...is not a good strategy to start pampering it now.. but better late then never..

Of course I wouldn't wish this on anyone, but I have to say I really think that with all the gold removed, it looks pretty stylish; a brushed aluminium effect with gold detail on the logo

If you really want to hear them sing, get a pure OCC silver cable.I finally received a 2.5mm-to-3.5mm adapter for my ALO SXC 8 cable and it has made my Solaris OG (Original???) really added a slight shimmer to the treble sparkle...all without harshness.

+1 on that, pure occ silver squeezes the most out of any iem i've tried so far, solaris included. still need to try copper and compare but silver is extremely clear and clean.If you really want to hear them sing, get a pure OCC silver cable.

I had a pure OCC silver cable before and it seems too revealing to the point where the treble can be harsh...but it might not be on the Solaris.

Or it could be that is was revealing that the player had harsh treble.I had a pure OCC silver cable before and it seems too revealing to the point where the treble can be harsh...but it might not be on the Solaris.

No effect on sound
Taiwan's moisture can easily damage the gold layer
