What, indeed. These guys know, how to tune an IEM, be it single DD, dual or triple hybrids. Received mine today, as well. Absolutely loving it. This is the baby IE800, I was searching for in chi-fi world. Swapped the cable with one from PT25 and tips from MH755, for improved comfort. These are a steal for under $25.

defective pairs with distortsions that only you are hearing doesn't count
Coming of from the OKCSC ZX1 or Sabbat X12 Pro, it's noticeable how the bass is less tight, and has some distortion in medium and bad recorded, crowded tracks.

That doesn't mean my pair is defective.

But this is always the case though, isn't it?

Hype train -> criticasters unwelcome/ 'your pair must be defective' -> new hype train -> 'Oh that last hype train wasn't actually perfect.'

you are the only one complaining about distortion, every other owner here is happy and likes them very much
probably they can`t hear what you are hearing?
bad pair is not possible from mass produced chi fi in ear?
i don't think so

My review of Auglamour F300 basic beginner IEMs. Good performance on lows and might be a good beginning but not in pink color :)

My blog
HeadFi
Iryx everybody is saying that the F300 is a slow bloated mess, also Toranku said that the Oxygen sound shrill, are you sugar coating for Penon you sneaky fox? :dt880smile::floatsmile:

I don't even know which iem is being discussed at this point. Maybe we should always include the name in our replies?

There will be a @loomisjohnson week on audioreviews.org starting this weekend. Loomis will have a look at some current Knowledge Zenith models.

And while loomis will hold North America together, the rest of the team is heading over to CANadaJAM 2019 in London. It will be held at the Hope and Anchor in Islington next week. The Hope and Anchor is the birthplace of Pub Rock, a short-lived and not very successful musical style preceding Punk (less than 120,000 albums of this genre sold). Most Pub Rock recordings are poor and therefore a great challenge for earphones and headphones.

The main topics will be the pairing of earphone and beverage, the proposed ban of the 3 kHz peak, and the expectations of a 36-driver earphone retailing at $49. The event is presently booked out. There will be extensive coverage on Head-Fi.

DISCLAIMER: The CANadaJAM London 2019 should not be mistaken for the lesser known CANJAM London 2019, which will take place in July.

I don't hear that bass distortion at all to be honest. I have the Sabbat X12 Pro as well and to me they sound like trash compared to the ****. They shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as far as I am concerned.

Thanks @superuser1 . I lost track several posts ago and thought you meant the Kanas Pro!

It happens easily when following several threads at once.

unhappily, you're right about the recording quality of pub rock, mainly because nick lowe, who was the go-to genre producer was really dangerous in the studio--his elvis costello and graham parker projects ("this year's model" excluded) sounded mostly horrible--he seemed to do his best work on his own records--"jesus of cool" is actually a good headphone record with a lot of snap crackle and pop.
