Sorry, never heard the HY3. The BA4 is not terribly far behind the Merlin though, so Phil is definitely doing something right.
This sums up my entire Rocoo listening experience. Needless to say, I won't bother with any hisound DAPs unless they have some type of breakthrough product that is completely different.

For sensitive devices the rocoo devices are completely off the map. However with some of the less sensitive devices I've found the rocoo p to sound pretty darn good actually. Then again, I don't think I'll ever use full sized headphones again when on the road...

I just received 3 updates from CE within the past 8 hours, the last one being testing and QA, so they can't be far off! I would anticipate that the upcoming HY5 would be equivalent to the Merlin, with the HY3 being a little brother. I'll find out when I receive them

Yes, in fact there was a screwton of hiss. It was pretty much unlistenable. 

Hisound DAPs, oh I can't hate them more I guess. Mate, you need to upgrade the dap too, just like me

Phil just told me that mine should be up there soon !

You guys are so lucky! Mine are in "shell detail", I'm guessing that's when they start to shape my impressions?

Hm, that's weird. Unless they put the wrong status? I only placed my order two nights ago.

Did you use Pre-fit? Cos if you did, then u are the same as me. I am also currently in shell detailing..

Yeah I think you will like it. Although my pair Was thick sounding, but I'm the only one experiencing this apparently. I guess I'll know soon enough, whether it's just my personal taste, or something strange going on with the cIEM + my ear.
 
The bass was very punchy, and very detailed, but thick sounding due to the extension of the boost into the lower mids. Really curious if the BA4f demo pair has the same problem for me.

That really soothes my anxiety a lot more. Thanks..
Now I am even more pumped up to receive the completed product.
 
Hope the others will have a good time as well.
 
On a side note, I wonder what is the current queue like? Though I did say 2-3 months seems to be the average timing...But what is the current pace of the completion though?
However, i did prefit, therefore the timing is most likely longer though..
 
Now that I think of it, after i tried my empty shells, and it fits, do i need to send back? I know if it doesn't or not comfortable, we need to send back for adjustments..

Nope, no pre fit. Either they switched up the procedures or they updated the wrong status since someone said a few days ago that their system wasn't working properly. Even though it is highly unlikely, it would be really nice if they were almost finished since I'm so eager to get them!

@yxpoh : Yes once you tested the empty shells, you fill a form regarding your test and send it back with the shells to Phil even if it fits.

Oh.. Thanks...
That is going to increase the time taken to finally get mine...

 

[neozecat]

Sure, but you'll have a perfect fit

True!
 
I must meditate to restraint myself..

 

[ChainRazer]

Very excited to get mine since it's my very first CIEM.
But as yxpoh said 'meditate'

 

[Cat Face]

I'm slightly confused now. Somewhere on their site I subscribed for an email notification list which would inform me once they would be taking new orders. This was over six months ago, and I thought that since many people are discussing their CIEM that maybe the system just didn't register me, or my email service filtered the notification email or something. I did try it twice though, but now that I look on their site there's a "How to Buy" guide that implies you can just go up and order some. I thought I've been queuing for mine for months!

Could anyone who has recently created an order confirm how does the site work at the moment? I feel a bit bummed now.
