New Head-Fier
Teardown of MS5 by Hi-Fri. Some interesting points to me:
It's obviously a thoughtful and carefully built IEM. The technical performance is good. Could have tuned a bit more "accessible" to avoid all of the problems and make recommendation much easier.
- The teardown confirms my suspicion that MS5 is not semi-open. It does feel like a closed IEM with a bass vent rather than fully open.
- I'm surprised about the engineering efforts and costs going into these IEMs.
- Interesting to see that DD and BA woofers firing directly into the same chamber without tube
The Hi Fri teardowns are always super interesting in my opinion. In this case you can see clearly Hidizs efforts on making the MS5! Premium quality drivers and structure, really good wiring and a really complex engineering. And that CNC shell is stunning! The more i use them the more a love them!
