Hey Leo, not sure if you can track a pair down but the Klipsch X7 would be a good:wink:



Here's a size reference with the Trinity Hyperion's!


That's one big plug you got on those Hyperions. Is that a 2.5mm balanced to 3.5mm TRS adapter or something? I didn't think you could do that.

That's the 3.5 mic cable for iPhone :wink:

What is the best IEM under 100$ right now? Have the KZ ZS5 but it is too sibilant for me.

I'd like to have the same amount of clarity but without the sibilance. Is there anything under 100$?

Magaosi K3 Pro or Pioneer SE-CH9T are my favorites ATM. Similar tuning to the ZS5, with no sibilance in either.

Although I don't have any sibilance in my ZS5 - what source are you using with your ZS5? And what tips? Those are 2 quick and easy things to try before you move on from the ZS5 - different sources and tip rolling make a big difference on the ZS5.

That's the right angle jack adapter that comes with the Hyperions.

Or at least, used to? I think Trinity doesn't include that anymore.

Correct on both accounts @teesui , my apologies Slater I was thinking of another thread and picture I posted (have I mentioned I'm old)!!

Anyway teesui is correct that is the 90 degree adapter Trinity used to provide with all iem's for the longest, just a 90 degree 3.5 but I guess it does look large in that shot.

Haven't been here for a while, so I'm just curious - have the Chinese managed to start making decent BA IEM's yet? Looking for something similar to Klipsch or Ety, lots of details and great isolation.. :)

Pai Audio MR3, Rose Technology Mini2.

How would you compare the Mini2 to Ety HF3 or Klipsch X10?

You mean pure BA or BA + DD hybrids ?

There are quite a few decent ones for the latter and even on a low budget too.

Pure BA. I don't do hybrids much. Since I use my IEMs mainly on the commute, isolation is one of the most important aspects for me, which more or less rules out anything with a vent.
