Also new eartips that looks pretty unique.

Very interesting!

I really like that it has 4 modes:

I've been wondering what this space looks like when other high end iem manufacturers jump in. Aesthetics of these not so hot, but I'd be interested to see how efficient they can make a bone conductor through wireless.

Interesting to see how this goes. Jlab coming with a $200 TWS and Tozo with a $260 TWS. Both to see if people are on board with these budget brands now dropping high priced models or will they be trigger shy dropping those amounts. Also of course interesting to see if either are actually worth those prices or will they be a letdown .

I figured these guys just repackaged budget ChiFi stuff.. IDK..

Some measurements of the excellent Oppo Enco X2. These are the Master EQ settings with ANC off.

(DF-compensated; blue = Dynaudio Simple & Clear, green = Enco X classic, orange = Dynaudio Real, red = Dynaudio Punchy)

Switching ANC on tends to change the tonal balance significantly, typically towards a warmer / bassier sound. Here's one example:

(DF-compensated; blue = Dynaudio Simple & Clear - ANC off, cyan = Dynaudio Simple & Clear - ANC on moderate level)

The latter (Dynaudio Simple & Clear - ANC on moderate level) is my preferred setting for these. Great extension at both ends, pretty neutral with a tasteful bass lift.

Really hope mine make it to me this time. Going to call DHL tomorrow as they are showing DHL processing center as Vancouver and I am in Montreal so am worried.

Scrolling through a Singapore retailers site and came across this little diddly.

Unique Melody coming out with a TWS?

Can't find any online info which makes me think this is a new product.

First Piezoelectric Bone Conductor being used in a tws that i've seen. Listed as sold out on the UM site but in stock on the Jaben one.

Unique Melody coming out with a TWS?

Not their first.

 

[SynaestheticA]

Not their first.

Right you are,

On the Qualcomm site it shows the tws30x.

Which takes you through to - https://www.uniquemelody.co/productinfo/56365.html

I was originally looking on their .org site and didn't see any previous mention of a release.

Jaben messaged back saying they have them in stock. Wonder why we haven't heard anything.

Today's video that ranks more than 30 TWS.

If any1 is interested.

First of all I hate you guys so much. Since I found this forum I've spent more on TWS than gaming. Secondly, Nuratrue Pro is an absolute beast. I have owned Sony xm3 and 4, APP i App2, Galaxy buds pro 2, Beoplay EX, pi7. now I have ath twx9 and NPT. NPT is so much better. I was afraid of the build shape and comfort but was i wrong. Fit is super nice out of the box. Sound is really enjoyment. Mostly rock and all kinds of metal. In a few weeks Mystique should also arrive but NPT is an revelation for me.

Waiting for your comparison between Fokus Mystique and Nuratrue Pro

 

[SynaestheticA]

@Exia I agree, be the problem!

Huawei not getting much love here.

I have been cabled for a time during work trying out some entry level IEMs. The Moondrop DSP has been nice for this since it's USB and has a mic.
What I noticed is that the sound is very similar to the Huawei Freebuds Pro 2. Both has Harman type of tuning, not my personal favorite of tuning. The treble is so close to the same I can not hear the small FQ difference.

The sun bass has a stronger impact in the Freebuds, while the mid bass is better showed in Quark's DSP

This has also been the set that has endured for longest time on construction sites, with a clear Mic so other can hear me trough all the noise. 6 months use now.
Anker,Sony, Bose, Jabra, Samsung and Sennheiser sets has all let me down. Specially with microphones being bad from start or getting unusable after a few months use.

Have two coworkers also having it now after they complained so much about their last TWS. Both are happy and has had no problems.

I have 2 negatives on the Huawei, tips. The same oval tips as apple buds, not very comfortable for me.
Other is that the ANC falls behind the likes of Bose or Sony.

And a third but it's very personal as I prefer more mid bass energy.

So if you are a person who likes the Moondrop Quarks DSP and want TWS that performs great go for the Huawei Freebuds Pro 2

I own the TE-Z1PNK. It sounds very clean and the tuning is very good to my ears. The Nuratrue Pro is my #1 in my books

Right everyone sure has his own preferences!~ Purely on SQ the Nura sounds acceptable to good to me depending on material, but the balance and resolution on the TE-Z1PNK makes it a clear winner across all genres. That said, I have not tested the other capabilities on the Nura (I focused on SQ during my demo session and I don't own them) so can't really comment if it would be a even better overall package.

Just received an update on the B&O EX, not sure if this is old news or not.

 

[Canabuc]

Looks like I am being frauded again By an Ali Express store. I called shipping company and it shows that my tracking number is for a windshield wiper going elsewhere.
They have no shipping information available for anything going to my address or name.
I wanted the Oppo but now will have to go through the dispute process again.

 

[Wolven777]

I picked up the NTP from B&H based on the feedback on this thread; the sound is absolutely phenomal! Especially the sub-bass, damn... One bug I have noticed in the app:
One of the two earbuds seems to draining faster (master slave config?) yet when I reset via the app multiple times, or remove one of the buds long enough that it looses connection, the battery indicator seems to reset to 100%.

Is anyone else seeing this issue?
