Nice cover for the Tsuranagi, that black leather and gold stitching.

Why do you use both jacks on the Walkman? It can only run one at a time anyway, no?

Thanks, I really love 'em. I got it made at @vishnu_leather instagram, beautifully made cordovan cover I must say. Here's more of the stitches pic:

btw Valrhona is the same name as my fave chocolate, that is for baking

I just follows what stated in the manual here: https://briseaudio.com/en/pages/tsuranagi-q-a But I believe @captblaze clearly explained it.

4.4 mm for sound, and 3.5 mm for ground

Thanks for chiming in, I couldn't said it better.

At 00:38 till 01:41 there is a bass drop to end all drops. Yet we are carrying less baggage. Yep, this is a leaner and faster bass than ever guessed-up by ISN before. Picture yourself going on a plane-ride and carrying only the necessities. You don’t need 5 sweaters in that luggage, nope we are having more fun, and joining in is more clarity, without the nonsense. Look, this is a whole different IEM than what came out of the box (little more than) a week ago. First the bass was profound and blurry, then after 24 hours the stage became bigger. But the crazy part is the bass kept getting cleaner and more clear. So burn-in is needed when you get these! Oh, and this is some of the very best bass I have ever heard. With the WM1Z it’s fast and clean and not getting in the way of anything, not even itself. It is two giant DDs, 2 8mm DDs doing almost BA bass, only the very best clean BA bass you or I have ever heard, ever…….ever. And because everything is totally wide and up-front it is that much more real and clear. I can't even describe how good this bass is. At right in the middle of 03:40 and 03:41 the………..but wait there is a sub-bass floating at 03:36 that is the cat's meow! You just get a glimpse of it. Then at the 03:40 mark the wait……….I'm still describing the sub results here………..at 03:36 they are traveling to the right then left…………….

Sure at the 03:40 the big violins hit and the timpani drums…..but these IEMs, the H60 are about super clear sub-bass…..wait till you hear how refined it is.

This is a good device within its budget. I can't say it's anything very special, but it's definitely better than most AliExpress devices, plus it's quite small. And in general, Oriolus know how to make a good sound.
If you replace its tubes for something better, you can get a good upgrade, but for this you need to disassemble the device and resolder them. I listened to such a device with General Electric AF-6112A tubes and it was much better than stock. Although it was still inferior to CDM with the same tubes.
So for myself, I chose the ALO CV5 - the V5 itself, it allows you to change the tubes easily, smaller, and in terms of sound - it is not inferior to the Oriolus (although I have not yet compared them on the same tubes).
On the Oriolus side - balanced connection, on the CV5 side - compactness.

You're absolutely right...the sound is polarizing. You wither love it or hate it...and the soldering issue us a deal breaker with rollers. For me, the 300s is sublime with the Sony WM1A..but you're right, it doenst work with every set up

Although I like the simplicity of just a dap I've always wanted to try the BA300s with my ZX300 and WM1Z. Unfortunately the thread seems long dead.

Yup nice indeed, although I enjoy more of her parents Joao and Astrud Gilberto… brilliant.
