Glad you liked them. For me, they are quite engaging and the micro-details are spot on with the rest of the spectrum giving a sense of openness and clarity while maintaining a good low and deep sub-bass response. When it comes to dual micro drivers per side these are surely my favorite. Hopefully, in the later future they can make one with detachable cables, since Edifier is a well established company from China.

Do they have burn in effect ?

with $600? Free to choose several item listed above

Thank you very much for the recommendations!

I was looking for an actual ~$600 chifi supet DD IEM but I think they all still use the same drivers more or less.

I may go with the JVC's or wait for higher end DD to come.

Before you lay down that kinda cheddar, you might want to say what kind of sound signature you’re looking for. Also, be aware that this thread is mainly budget ChiFi gear. There may not be a lot of recs for $600 IEMs (in this thread anyways).

What I am looking for is pretty rare, I will just EQ what I would find.

Do you mean if they sound better after burning them in to a certain point?

I usually burn all my earphones in for at least 100 hours. Does it pose a difference after the burn-in period? For certain people, it's a personal opinion, but at least to me it does make a difference. ...Some may have drastic improvements and some mildly improved. So, the Edifier Hecate did improve sonically with excellent micro-details and deep bass impact after the initial burn in period, IMHO.

Hope the same goes for you!:ok_hand:

Does anyone know or tried one of these IEMs? It's called the QZX-A1. They look really interesting.

Tried to ship some IEMs to China, but they said it's too unsafe with USA coronavirus to accept my product return to Wuhan. :joy:

They may just have repackaged their old stock. I think that because nobody can sell an earphone for $5 anymore. I have a new one on order, so I will find out soon....and can even measure it.
@Otto Motor It does look and sound different ..especially with a thicker and heavier maroon coloured cables ..in comparison with the thinner multi-colored cables from previous batches, well good luck with your new orders..as for me I made a few more purchases of the EDR1 and received all old batch with the thinner cables again :frowning2:

Wow, they really look the same, but the price isn't. I saw the QZX-A1 at 16 USD, and judging the pictures on reviews based on my country's local buyers, they would only sell the driver unit, no cables or anything. This is weird lol
Like these?
