Earbuds Round-Up
Dec 6, 2021 at 5:52 AM Post #59,176 of 75,270
Well bad news folks... the left driver went out on me on my K's Temperament 钛铃 "Titanium Ling" Bell-Ti (120Ω) earbuds earlier today. As many of you might already be aware (see above) the right channel earbud had failed earlier on me months ago due to both shoddy cabling and a severe driver voice coil fault which Wong @ Blur managed to repair for me 🤮

I am definitely done with the brand as a whole now and contemplating if I should keep the brand as a whole on my God-Tier List still or not... might simply remove the Bell-Ti models altogether leaving the Bell-Blue and Bell-LBBs on the list with a QC warning. Although the Bell-Ti models have an excellent warm & relaxing signature I am reluctant to continue to recommend them in case others get burned.
Oh my.. Does the Onmyoji have the Qc issues as well? I’m still using mine but I’m kind of scared now because of the numerous issues that have been happening for quite sometime now.

Both cables measures pretty bad at 0.92 (copper) and 0.95 (silver). Only donut foams are included and they tear instantly.
Hi all i would like to ask among these earbud which one have fastest, cleanest, tightest bass. Rose Maria/Mojito, Moondrop Chaconne, Symphonio Dragon 3, Shozy BK, VE Zen 2.0, Astrotec Lyra Nature LE. I don't need about bass quantity. Thank you.

Forget about the Lyra nature LE, this is embarrassingly bad. Calling it overpriced is an understatement. It isnt competing at that range, its competing at the sub 10 usd range.

Literally has worse soundstage and timbre than the Faaeal Iris 2.0 with comparable detail imaging and separation. What a joke.

Spent the weekend with the Fiio EM5. My initial impressions are:
1. It's still working
2. Sounds rather good. Quite like it!

Oh no. :cold_sweat:

Gonna send it back to see if he can work his magic a 2nd time?


Maybe time to buy a 2nd turandot? To replace the one that has been on 'permanent loan'.
