Elysian Acoustics DIVA 2023

[jmo04]

The Velvets have the "MS" size too. Perhaps that'll be perfect lol.

You're right about the fat nozzles on the Diva though. The W1 is pretty tight on the Diva and the Omni is even tighter. The other one I didn't mention is the NF Audio MS42. It's another short ear tip but it's a wider so it's easier to put on and off the Diva nozzles.

Here's a recent post that has pics of these 3 ear tips for comparison.

those nf ones look interesting. Does the silicone on it have similarities to other tips? is it stiff or flexible? the dunu candys fit well but because its a stiffish silicone its not as comfortable

They're still flexible, but not as thin as the Spinfits. Sticky, but not as sticky as the Spinfits. They're sticky enough where when I remove my IEMs, sometimes they flip upside down due to the grip.

I probably have the Dunu candys if they came with the Falcon Ultras, but I haven't tried them so I can't compare.

The NF ear tips are fairly cheap. They're comfortable and they sound good so it's worth checking out.

I definitely might thanks! the S&S shape unfortunately doesnt agree with my ears

I'm wondering if anyone here with shorter smaller ear canals have eartip suggestions for these? the only tips that work for me that don't stick super far out of my ears are the Dunu candys and those cheap 64 audio ones both in a size medium. However, the 64 audio ones kinda suck and the dunu candys arent the most comfortable due to being a bit stiff. I love the feeling of spinfits, especially cp145's however the size is either too small or just sticks out of my ears too much. any suggestions?

oh also I really don't like azla xelastics... wayyyy too sticky

Hi , also have this problem.. the two best for me are the Dunu Candy as you have mentioned and the best and shortest is the NF Audio MS42 super comfy with good bass , smooth mids and highs. Still the Diva is a BIG iem.

Great to hear! How does the comfort compare between them and what is the sizing like on it compared to the dunu ones. Such as, would both mediums be comparible?

The comfort is great on both, but the NF you can get the IEM more flush since it´s a shorter eartip (so for me better fitting) also you gain more bass impact compared to the Dunu Candy. The good side of the Dunu is having a little more soundstage and sparkly treble, but for me since i´m a little treble sensitive i prefer the NF. It helps taming the highs and give a better bass impact ( seems tube like sound to me).

From all my iems expect the Volur (still using Dunu Candy) I have switch eartips for the NF Audio MS42, the Diva is one of the best matches with these eartips.

My size for both is L 13,2mm.

Is the Diva somehow comparable to Oriolus Isabellae? Both do have good midrange and Diva is a bit more exciting and Isa more relaxed?

Which is better?

I have pretty small ear canals, any recommendations for ear tips for my ears? I want to buy a whole bunch and try them on the diva.

The Divinus Velvet Wide-bore ear tips are my new favorites for the Diva. I wear MS on the left and M on the right. They alleviate all the pressure-buildup issues I get with the stock Spinfit W1 ear tips.

Would you recommend the JVC spin tips?

The JVC Spiral Dot ear tips? I like them on other IEMs, but I can't get a good seal with them on the Diva. They sound great on the Diva, but that's only if I'm stationary.

I guess ear tips are all personal, I just have to buy a whole bunch and try them out

I have both and I've never really thought of them as similar. Yes, they're both good vocalist IEMs, but the Isa is much more intimate/in your head and considerably warmer/relaxed. The Diva has notably more upper midrange and, to me, seems more suited to female vocals.

Definitely spinfit Omni. That’s what I use with my diva

 

[Unichu]

Anyone have any dongle recs to pair with the diva? I’m looking for something I can use when I’m traveling with 4.4mm.
