Got around 20 hours of burn in in my Bassos, and they are just too bassy for me. Quality of bass if great but needs to be tightened IMO. Planning on selling them. Should I get the Ostry K06A or the Tenores? I like my bass tight, highs and mids slightly forward.

Just curious how are the Penon IEMs?

They are fantastic for the "free" price of $9.99. Sound wise I put them up there with stuff in the $40-$60 range. Plenty of bass with a mid bass hump (which can be reduced with an eq adjustment or a wide bore dual flange tip), and I really like the upper mids and treble. The treble is close to perfect IMHO. The housings are well built, metal with a copper-like finish.

If I paid $80 bucks for them I would complain about their being no accessories (comes with nothing but 3 sets of tips), the straight plug (which is durable and some might prefer), the lack of strain reliefs at the housings, and no cable cinch. But honestly, all of those things are minor in comparison to how good they sound. They are a high quality iem that's stripped down in order for them to give a promotion to their consumers.

If I were pricing them to sell based on sound, I would put a $50 price tag on them. They are an incredible value and anyone that buys from Penonaudio should pick up a pair while they still can.

[/quote]Agreed. You have good taste twister6

ATH-IM50 might not be a bad idea either. They have fantastic midrange.

Agreed, IM50 is a great choice too!  You will get a stronger bass punch and more forward upper mids, in comparison to KC06A; also a removable cable.  Anxiously waiting for my silver plated replacement cable.  Damn, it's taking so long

Let me guess, Lunashops?

I've ordered from them 3 times, and they all took almost a month.

The piston is a better iem for edm. It has more bass and more of a v signature.

The bass colour has solid bass, but not on the same level as the Pistons.

Get the Pistons from Penonaudio, and add a pair of the penon iem to your order basket as well.

Innerfidelity now has measurements for the Pistons and the vPulse

Pistons


vPulse


So based on the measurements, the vPulse/Bass Colours should have more deep sub bass emphasis.

Yeah, this is my order #4 from them, and they are on track with 1 month delivery interval.  At least they are being consistent lol!!!

Hisoundfi,
 
How does one get the Penon IEMs for $9.99?  I went to the Penon Audio site this AM and picked up a set of earphones (KC06A).  I then added the Penon IEMs to my cart and went to check out.  The checkout price for the Penon IEMs stayed at $99.90.  I must admit, I did not progress thru the whole checkout process though.  Does the price come down on the final purchase page or do you get some sort of future rebate?  Thanks.

You have to set up an account/membership with them. It's free and easy to do.

 

[jdog]

Thanks. I'll look into it.

Got both my kc06 gold and kc06A in and using kc06A at the moment proves that the kc06A tuning is superior to the vsonic vsd3s in clarity, resolution,soundstage and build.

And here you were trying to coax me into the vsd3s!

 

[mochill]

That's my confirmation now that I have all three... Ostry wins and tenore as well compared to the vsonic
