Hmm..many people opine the same on burn-in, I used to believe the same before this change on MH1C. I put my IEMs to burn-in for like sessions of 20 hours continuous on pink, white noises etc keeping them in a box .. So when I listen to these back, I can notice a change more consistently in smoothing out mids, treble and bass being more deep and punching. I can say burn-in is a placebo for all other IEMs Ive heard till now. However, I can notice the change with A/Bing with my other MH1C.

My friend in Hong Kong has 2 pairs. One with 0 hours (as a backup) and another as his casual one. He has UE11's($1.5K) so I'll leave it to him on what he thinks.
 
The Dunu DN17 and MP8320 do indeed yes requite burnin. I would say a solid 60 hours for those ones. 300 is just an astronomical number.

I have 2 MH1Cs one 300+ hours burned-in and another one 100+ hours burned in and there was a noticable difference between them, dont draw conclusions without experimenting it yourself mr.genius

 
Why did I fell off my chair laughing ?

Do you guys know if there is any mod to improve soundstage for mh1c. I think that is the biggest draw for these iems.

Is the seller Starhall on ebay legit?


Many in this thread have purchased from that seller:


I was wondering if anybody bought a pair from this seller on eBay. Are they a legit pair or are they fakes?

Day 2 listening to MH1C - 30 hours burn time. Right ear piece seems to be outputting higher volume than left giving a sound image " / " with sound leaning down to right.
 
Edit: It's off from the center by approximately 5~10 degrees. A few degrees only maybe but very noticeable.

Then you have people like me who love these with zero burn in

Then you have something called sample variation between sets :rolleyes:
