Thanks for that review and especially directly compared with the DM6. Interesting the bass is even better? My DM6 have a lot of bass, not sure I want even more! Regardless, the Dm6 DO punch way above their pricepoint.

Yes, bass on the S8F is bigger and better defined as the one of the DM6, but we are talking about very small improvements/differences here. The DM6 is just amazing for the price, just the stock cable sucks. Otherwise, very nicely built IEM and very nice sound Indeed. I am not sure I will sell my DM6. The fit is perfect and they are sexy

Wich cable you would take for the DM6

I have the Sony MUC-M12SM2 (3.5mm). Very high built quality, flexible, comfy and durable. Solid MMCX connectors. They are approx. USD 80.- but you get what you paid for.

Nice Pics!!!! IEM Porn.

Indeed, I almost kissed the postman when he rang at the door this morning

These iem pics are great, but it would be great if someone could provide a photo next to a set of Andros for size comparison and, better yet, a pic with them in ear to see how the fit on these look and how much they protrude from the ear canal. Thanks!

Bro,

Any inquiries bout S8 PRO will be linked to your post.
THAT....is context.

Yeah, build songs from the ground up and spend over 300 hours with the tracks and you're likely to understand them a bit LOL.

I totally get why you prefer other IEMs over these, @Hawaiibadboy . They're absolutely not "fun," something I suspected them of being after seeing your graph. It just happens that that's precisely the setup I'm after- stage-flat, not studio-flat- and the S8 Pros deliver that in spades.

I suspect, from your graphs and feedback, the studio-flat folks will be much happier with the S6 Pros, and, based on your feedback and others, the S6Rui or S8 Freedom will be the pick for "fun" listening; in fact, I'm tempted to pick up a set of S6Rui for off-stage after experiencing the S8 Pro.

I don't have any Andros, but here is a picture with the S8F in ear. I have medium-sized ears.

I posted one vs. the DM6 before! But this thread is huge already, so I'll repost:

DM6:

S8F:

Physically, they're kinda big. They actually fit me better because of the longer, thicker stems, but they don't sit "flush" in my ear like the DM6 did

Some other pics coming through in a minute...

Perfect! I really appreciate it! I'm asking because sometimes I have comfort issues with larger shelled iems. This is ultimately why I sold my Andros, although it may have been the sharper edges on those rather than the size.

They are a little big! They're very round/smooth though. The stems are actually angled in a way that I didn't really consider before; they're not really perpendicular to the outside of the IEM, so it's meant to sit in your ear at a bit of an angle (i.e. the plane of the outside of the IEM is not perpendicular to the floor if that makes sense.)

In any case:

it's beautiful

You need to stop taking all these beautiful cable pics @mr.karmalicious , my wallet can't handle any more

I have more issues with my Oxygens because of the outside edges than the S8Ps for sure. The S8Ps are probably the most comfortable shells I've run across- isolation is near-supernatural, too.

For those in the US who have already received yours or those about to, what delivery service was used and did you get a tracking number?

I asked for DHL through Linsoul. Was like $20 but took shipping from ~4 weeks to ~2 weeks with frequent and easy tracking updates

Penon sent through DHL, and it took 3 days to arrive once shipped.
