Obviously these are very expensive, but people sleep on the Empire Ears Odin IEMs for bass. They have the same dynamic drivers as the EE Legend Evos which have tons of bass. Apply some EQ and you can get as much bass as you want from the Odins. Plus it's some of the cleanest, most detailed bass you'll hear in an IEM.

Just out of curiosity, you like these so much, or do you use one at home and the other on the go?

Nope, just a backup. I do have backups of my favourites as they tend to be out of production.

A few examples are 2 OG HD800, Klipsch Hp3 still in its glass suitcase, 2 ifi Black Label iMicro iDSD (which in hindsight was a good idea) one of which is still in its box and a still in box MZ-NH900 HI-MD recorder probably the only one in the world and a few other items.

Hi everyone,

I bought Topping G5 for Sony EX800ST (16 ohm). Here are my impressions.

I have been using only Sony EX800ST IEMs already 3 years with various dac/amps.

Last 3 dac/amps were

1. Monoprice Monolith THX portable (220mW) @16 ohm .... used for 2 years
2. Xduoo XD05 Balanced (2x530mW) @16 ohm .... 1 year
3. Topping G5 (2x1W) @16 ohm ...... Bought 3 days ago

Topping G5 can run EX800ST to 'ears give up first' basshead level at its high gain at about 50% volume. With solid reserve.
The difference btw G5 and Xduoo XD05 Bal (both highest gain) is really the power, G5 has simply enough of it for EX800ST.

I prefer G5 also sound-wise as it does not color bass/subbass at all, where Xduoo would distort at the deepest levels of bass/would not have enough power to reproduce the sound. I noticed better details in highs with G5 too.
.
So, to put it mildly, with G5 there is an extra layer of deepest bass that I have not heard with Xduoo no matter the sound volume or EQ.

Highly recommended for EX800ST.

(I use Neutron Player with heavy bass EQ, but most importantly GAIN slider at 100%, and PREAMP slider at minimum, or '-30'.) This sounds best to me.

I received kbear rosefinch and qkz x hbb and try them.

qkz x hbb (not khan) is bad than rosefinch. Bad and narrow bass stage. for example bass is like mono and bad mono 1 subbass speaker is front of me.
rosefinch has soft, deep and good bass stage. it is very good for this price.

that doesn't really make sense, have you tried muting one channel and listening for sound in that muted channel? How much sound is crossing over to the wrong channel? Is the cable plugged in properly?

Been a long time since I've been here. How's it going in the basshead thread? This was my old hangout back in the day.

The mini is all about Bass, not much else really. It does its job though at it's pricepoint.
