vjjb k4 sounds amazing with the qp1r on dsd files
vjjb k4 sounds like an iem in the $500 price range now

So what you are saying is we all need to stop spending so much on high dollar iem's and just make sure we have an awesome DAP eh
A while ago, when I was looking for iems for small ears, I was recommended Joyroom E107, which I bought. They are indeed very comfortable to wear and do not fall off my ears (hooray!). However, I dislike the sound A LOT. They lack bass (I don't consider myself a basshead, but I appreciate it in decent quantities) and the highs are just piercing. I usually use no EQ, but with E107 I have to use hip-hop or R&B EQ in order to reduce the highs. Electric guitar solos and too high vocals will make my ears bleed.
So here is where I'm clueless, because I have read reviews that say that the bass is decent and the highs soft (sort of) so: 1) my E107 are defective, or 2) they are not for me and I'm more inclined to bass than I thought.

The flip side too will apply ... High end CIEM with $10 mp3 player will also sound awesome too....muahahahahaaaaa

Exactly my brother, a good file is a good file whether it's on A&K or a X3. It also does not matter the codec, if the recording is awesome it will be awesome no matter the player (not saying you can't tweak on any of that gear) but that the music IMO comes from the media
I believe that I may have figured out why my TFZ3 sound so much clearer than my TFZ5s. I think I may be a QA issue the filters on my Series 5 look like they were misstamped, and barely have any openings in them.
Attached is a pic of my series 3 on the left and series 5 on the right.
Something tells me that's not supposed to be like that.
I consider the E107 as an excellent iem, it is well balanced but actually has too much bass and a treble peak above 7kHz, so your experience is quite unusual.
A bad seal may explain the lack of bass you're experiencing, as for the treble, well, insertion depth? Sensitivity to high Frequencies?
