@antdroid Wondering if there might be something wrong with your BA10. It shouldn't be that different than the AS10.

Ya I'm curious why our listening differences are so polar. I read your preview yesterday hoping for something like what you sound and mine doesnt sound at all like it. I'll post my measurements if you are interested, or can send them to you via PM if you want. We need a third opinion. Who else got one early?

Would love to see the measurements. I did let someone else give them a go who has the AS10 and his impressions seemed similar to mine, though I'm pretty sure he found them bassier than I do (further supporting my thinking I'm not getting the best possible seal).

I will PM you it after I get home from work. I measured using the stock tips. But I am trying to tip roll with them and seeing anything changes. Using SpinFits, I was having difficulty getting them to fit well. I dont think they were deep enough to get a good fit and i had to push the driver further in which I think causes the squared edges to press against the inside of my ear. Will try a few more tips when I have time to listen today in-between meetings at work. Too many meetings today! not enough music time.

Sounds good

@handwander, may I ask you to translate the penultimate paragraph of the review on the Veclos ETP-500? I mean the comparison with Etymotic and Earnine. Google translator is useless in this case.
Quite interesting earphones. I didn't understand the principle of the thermos vacuum sound, but I know that 70 Ohms is not typical impedance for IEMs. And the price is not budget.

He seems to be a fan of DD sound and mentions the ER4SR & EN120 as 1BA iems he enjoys despite the DD preference. It also seems like he is saying his possible bias against BA means that he would like the ETP500 sound as well if he didn't know the driver type? Not sure lol. He does recommend it to both fans of 1BA and people who might not like 1BA as much, like himself.

Seems rather neutral honestly, like maybe Japanese iem reviews (or iem reviews in general). I sort of wish people would both more harsh and more (cautiously) glowing about reviews. I'm not sure if most reviewers are doing it just so they can keep getting free review units, but I feel reviews start to become meaningless when 1. there are 30 new chifi iems release a week and 2. each of these is reviewed as "sure, pretty good, buy if you want"

Sometimes you have to read between the lines.

Thank you! Appreciate it.
Some of the new iems that impress me recently are Shozy & Neo BG, Magaosi MGS-401 & Anew U1.

I hope to hear some impressions of the Shozy Neo BG from you!

been spending some more time with the trn v80, which are settling down nicely. they really do bass exceptionally well--deep, controlled and musical--and have a richer, smoother toanlity than most of their price peers. where they do fall short of pricier, reference-tuned pieces like the ue900 is driver coherence; i.e. the integration between highs, lows and mids is less than seamless. very good for the gym, however.

They are very nice, I also noticed that they are less aggressive with more use, very enjoyable iem s

Very good iems indeed. Demands some brain burn in. And goes better with smoother sources.

I think its on the roof of what 25$ hybrid can sound technically. I doubt we reach beyond that in the near future.

For those interested, I was able to gather some links from "eBay" for those that are interested on picking up a pair of awesome sounding QCY QM05. There's a drop-down box where you can choose your shipping destination. You can choose between Black, Red, and White.

Is winter coming? Seems to be getting shilly in here.

I hope to hear some impressions of the Shozy Neo BG from you!

Driver Configuration: 5 Balanced Armature
It is smooth and clean with great dynamics. The performance is beyond its asking price. Do let me know if you need comparisons to other iems!
