I got this just then and monitor mode with default black filter, it sounds good with all the jazz i have so good with natural instruments.

Good to know. Shallow or deep insertion?

Depends on how big your ear holes are. Haha

Been enjoying A7 over the weekend. The shell is nice, but it is winter and it is just soo cold on my ear

Cold in Sunnyvale? I have my doubts.....

We Californias have no tolerance...at least @doushi has his A7 to keep him warm. Mine arrived with a defective right MMCX connector. I'm waiting for Linsoul to authorize a return / exchange, hopefully rapid shipping.

Ask me about the time my pipes froze when I lived in Redwood City....Now I live in a place where it gets below zero. A lot. Now that is cold.

I’m not qualified to comment on this matter.

I live on a island on the Aelutians, it's cold and really windy most part of the year. Had gone thru moisture condensation issues while I tried my TRN BA5 out side the house and this makes me worry about getting the A7 out out while I commute or hike around because of the design I fear they might cause an issue. Haven't faced any issues with NM2+ or Hisenior T2U and I use them a lott outside, they don't have any vents like the A7 though.

lol, yea. Used to live in Ohio, so it is not bad at all in CA. Just commenting that metal shell is a bit colder than acrylic resin shell. Only cold for a second or so tho.

Sorry about that defective connector. On the plus note, that tripowin cable from linsoul bundle is pretty good

Just got this today! So far, it sounds amazing, and better than I expected, which is saying a lot.

Nice! Hoping mine come tomorrow. Let me know how your tiprolling goes since it seems we have similar ears that way. Thanks in advance!

Well these seem reasonably well made to me. But I would probably wear them under a hat or earmuff. To protect my ears not the IEMs!

I have a feeling you’re really going to like it A LOT! It doesn’t replace the NM2+ though, IMHO. With the duo of the NM2+ and the A7, that may be all one needs/wants.

So far, I‘ve tried the CP145 tips, Final E tips, ePro horn tips, and the Eartune elliptical tips. I like the elliptical tips the best. The CP145 and ePro tips cause driver flex for me, but they both sound really good, with tight bass and extended highs, but no increased upper midrange glare. I can tolerate the black nozzles w/o problems, but prefer the gold for a bit better overall balance, especially if in monitor mode. The Final E tips don’t cause driver flex, despite creating a tight seal. I’m not sure why. The problem for me with the Final tips is that they seem to blunt the transient attack a bit too much, including with the bass. The elliptical tips don’t cause driver flex for me, and have a great sonic balance, so they work best for me.

I honestly like the black, gold, and red nozzles, but the gold is a happy medium for me, both in pop and monitor modes.

It's the new Tripowin Nucool that Linsoul included with their 11-11 LZ A7 bundle.
