Has anyone ordered the Musicmaker Nine Tails? Filters and Mmcx
Click to expand...

Links help so I'll add it. Love me MM but that thing is hideous lol. Single dynamic above $100 though is good to see. Add in filter system which could be fun or a PITA. I'm out of the ChiFi game anyways but hopefully somebody grabs them.

I'm definitely heavily looking at all of these "TOTL-lite" products out there. The Super Audio T7A still is the one I want most, but some of these other ones really got me curious.

Hey guys and gals. Looking for some $20 over the ear headphones. Gonna be using them on my computer to play Starcraft and watching some Youtube videos. Don't need anything special. Would like something sorta easy to drive as I may be using the onboard sound, which isn't bad, on my ASRock Z270 Extreme 4 with Realtek ALC1220. So far looking at these two - Superlux HD681, TAKSTAR HD2000. Also and considering the Monoprice 8323 which I have owned and are totally awesome. Suggestions?

Pioneer CH9T...

I heard the original K3, crisp treble that got hot at times, it was good but passed it to @slowpickr who also now has the LZA4, which I've owned and sold to another member. I now have the Pioneer CH9T and sent it to Slow who has been auditioning it for the past week. He says it beats the A4 in his opinion, which I agree with on memory. A4 already beat the K3, for me of course lol. Ive had plenty of IEMs in the $80-200 range and nothing compares to the Pioneer, it's a simply great IEM. I guess it doesn't get a lot of love bc it's Japanese and a name brand. I gotta thank @jant71 for tipping me off on it.

For comparison, I have the AKG N40 which has maybe a slightly smaller width of stage compared to the Pioneer but has a bit more vivid treble thanks to the BA but the single dynamic of the Pioneer is no slouch and is butter smooth without being dark. The N40 needs a really good source to sound it's best, the Pioneer on the other hand sounds great out of my cheap Fiio 3 but didn't notice much scaling with my Opus#1 (still need to do more listening though). This could be bad or good depending on how you look at it. The Pioneers are my gym phones and I get immersed in the music, it's a great experience. Been using my Simgot EN700 Bass for the past week and while they are good, I can't wait to get my Pioneers back

Hi guys. I am getting ready to pull the trigger on LZ A4's. Only interested in stuff I can buy on Aliexpress.
Any other in-ear I should take a look? Can't really go through 689 pages (and retain my already compromised sanity, heh) :)

Well I mean the one in literally the post above yours seems like a good choice.

That's super generic friend. Like me saying "I'm ready to buy a Honda CRV. Anything else I should consider?" There's hundreds of vehicles to consider.

Just like there's hundreds of IEMs to consider.

What specific features are you looking for? Over ear? Multi driver? Detachable cables? Basshead? Neutral? Balanced cable? Metal body? Budget level? Inline volume controls?
