Could even be made by the same ODM.

If I ordered a few thousand units, I could have a “Slater Audio X9” made in anodized pink if I wanted. That’s what the majority of companies are doing.

I will have it in anodized royal purple please

That's probably the same driver assembly as the Artiste DC1 and others such as the Rosewill EX 500.

Yeah, I love the DC1. I'm wondering if this set is open back like the **** or if it's merely just a mesh for aesthetics like say BK50?

Hadn't heard of the Rosewill ex500... any good?

I don't know, I haven't got that one, I know it uses the same drivers.

I'll find out soon cos just bought it on Amazon for £9.95

Anyone seen the Revonext QT5 1DD+1BA

 

[harry501501]

That's probably the same driver assembly as the Artiste DC1 and others such as the Rosewill EX 500.

So after much digging i found the ProStereo L2 goes in South Asia around $25-30. That £69.99 on Amazon Uk doesn't seem such a good deal after all lol

BK50 is fully open in the back. It is not just for aesthetics.

And yeah, I like the Rosewill. If you want to know more, just search for Artiste DC1 to read people’s impressions (as way more people have the DC1 than the EX500).

I did mod my EX500 for a bit better sound. I’m running totally open nozzles, as the nozzle filter was choking the sound.

they use piezo ceramic plate for treble, the BA is for mids

+1 Yup!...this is why they sound so good and can compete with higher tier! Cheers!

I believe, the **** is the only IEM with this type of set-up! ...Well? maybe for now.

 

[MrDelicious]

Do signatures like this exist in the sub-100 market? Narrow bass focus, linear mids and no weird-ass bumps and peaks in the upper mids and treble.

Anyone?

 

[DynamicEars]

Anyone?

ibasso IT01 is the closest, since other chifi is normally goes up from 2khz and peak at 2.5-3khz. Advanced GT3 is start going up from 4khz. Its a V shaped sound signature, not chasing a harman target response. or try sony MH755 since its very cheap one, but becareful of counterfeits

 

[CoiL]

Oh, I totally forgot aboout this regarding KPE 12kHz "peak". You see how that "peak" has GONE AWAY with some "burn-in" ! That`s probably why I don`t hear it!
End of "arguing" about that "peak"

Agree. IT01 would be pretty close to that and after some playtime/burn-in it is rather U-shaped to my ears than V-shape.

Good call, the IT01 is been something I've been eyeing and forgot about.

GT3 Superbass is barely V-shaped though. Using the treble or reference filters adds some definition, but no sparkle really. Mids are still prioritized over treble with either filter. With the bass filter, that I prefer, it's very much L-shaped.

I never heard Gt3 myself, but your FR is compensated, I saw other RAW FR, they indeed a v shaped towards U shaped without high mids boost. I guess the closest one under $100 is IT01, I looked at bqeyz they are good but the FR isnt something youre looking for, like mostly modern chifi, they start climbing up from 2 khz and their hills are at 2.5-3 khz. Unless you wanna try something else.

 

[SiggyFraud]

Did you notice any change to bass or highs with the screen change? The stock screens kind of eat up a lot of surface area.

A little more air perhaps? But can't really tell if it's the new screen that actually does it, or if it's in my head. Anyway, it seems logical, as the mesh seems to provide a better flow that the grille. I'll probably end up changing the grilles in my other IEMs to mesh.

Graph is raw, crinacle doesn't compensate. They're just really fairly dark IEM's.

And no, not looking for anything different really. I quite like this signature but don't want to use the GT3 as beaters. Only similar pair I've found are the Oriveti Basic which are pretty damn close but seem to be EOL and my current pair has seen better days.

IT looks promising, thanks for the help!
