That, and the non detachable thin cable. Come on, this is 2021, we have $10 IEMs with non detachable cables nowadays!
The cable actually feels sturdy. But that QC.....
Cant use it like this. I sent them a message asking for a replacement, we see how it goes.

2021-10-16: So yesterday, I kinda randomly did a live-stream (on discord) where I did a walkthrough on how to create your own preference target and since it seems there is interested from people that missed it. Check the pdf file for the written guide.

Oh and the cable is 100% the XINHS 8 core graphene cable, it measures at 0.11 ohm.

2021-10-09: So, you guys might remember when I got the DQ6 and started playing around with it and managed to create my DIY foam mod?

Well, looks like there is a better and more consistent mod out there.

Both the (old) Hana and the Oxygen filter works great.

I say the Hana filter works better. But the Oxygen filter is included in the Tanya (and also sold separately on Penon) and is quite similar to my DIY foam mod (might be a bit warmer though).

Epic set. promoted from (modded) rank A to S-.
:clap:
Oh boy, here we go again. Third time's the charm

These high-density tuning foams are great for the DQ6. Essentially the Hana filter, except these are only 2 usd for 20 pieces lol.

The low-density version doesnt really do anything though.



Installation:
You simply remove the stock filter by taking a tweezer and pressing down on it and pull it back up (be careful to not ruin it if you wanna reuse the stock filter). Then drop the tuning foam in the nozzle and press it down so it stays in there.

2021-10-28: Impressions

Tanchjim Tanya:
graph - 2021-10-28T182543.411.png

Bass: mid-bass focused, cleaner than most mid-bass focused iems in this price range. The texture is very good though, reminds me of the Sony MH750/755 in that regard. Sub-bass is rolled-off, doesn’t extend that low nor rumble that much, sub-bass texture isn’t that good (average for the price I guess).

Mids: Recessed male vocals but tonality is pretty good due to the warmth. Female vocals neutral and quite good tonality as well.

Treble: 3k is slightly too much for me, as it is a bit peaky for me. But otherwise, it is on the warmer side (due to the bass) and still pretty clean.

Overall: The included accessories are the main reasons to get this iem IMO. But the Tanya itself is actually pretty decent, it reminds me of a mid-bass focused Sony MH755/750.


Audiosense DT600 (30ohm + Tanya filter):
graph - 2021-10-28T182250.563.png

Bass: Sub-bass focused, very clean, tight and fast and texture is very impressive for a BA. Mid-bass can be a bit lacking in quantity though. Extension is good for a BA but doesn’t rumble a lot though.

Mids: neutral, clean with both male and female. Male vocals can lack some warmth though. Female vocals are better than the male, due to the more accurate tonality.

Treble: Energetic, but not particularly peaky, it is on the brighter side though.

Overall: Very good first impressions (with the resistor + filter) and might be my favorite BA iem.




LZ A4 Pro (Red filter, black vent):
graph - 2021-10-28T184617.293.png

Bass: Mid-bass is pretty tight, fast and texture and is elevated. Sub-bass is the focus, but still pretty tight, fast and good texture. There is rumble (although not as much as I would prefer) and extension is good.

Mids: recessed male vocals, and can be a bit unclean, while tonality is good. Female vocals are also a bit recessed and can lack some brightness for the tonality as well as clarity.

Treble: Very warm treble, (can be classified as slightly dark) zero fatigue and not peaky at all. Not very versatile due to this treble, but is more specialized into R&B and works well with rock/metal as well (cymbals can be a bit too tame though).

Overall: Not really a versatile iem like its big brother (A7) (despite it having 12 combinations, most of them are unusable for me though) but can work pretty well for R&B and rock/metal. Although, I am not sure if the price is doing it good, since it is so close to the A7.



Shuoer EJ07M:
graph - 2021-10-28T194001.964.png

Bass: sub-bass is tight, fast and has very good texture as well as fun due to the quantity. Mid-bass is very clean as well with very good texture and fast/tight, quantity is pretty good as well (although more is welcomed). Extension is pretty good and there is rumble but not as much as I prefer (not a basshead iem for sure).

Mids: Male vocals are neutral, clean and has good tonality. Female vocals are more forward and better tonality with very good clarity without being fatiguing.

Treble: Very well-tuned, not peaky nor fatiguing but still plenty of details.

Overall: As I expected (hoped), this is the best one out of the bunch I got recently and tonality wise, it seems to be very fitting for my library. The Dunu EST112 might be in trouble. :joy:

Jewelry in iem form. (cable measures at 0.14 ohm)


first impressions:

Bass: above average BA bass in terms of texture. It is very clean due to the speed and tightness, although slightly slower/looser than the usual BA bass. Not a lot of quantity, for both sub/mid-bass. Extension and rumble are lacking, typical of BA bass.

Mids: Male vocals are clean and slightly forward, but does lack some warmth. Female vocals are forward, very clean and very good tonality.

Treble: Slightly laidback and warm treble, but still has very good clarity. Upper-treble/air is pretty good for something with only 1 BA.

Overall: Has the potential to end up being my default rec for people wanting a neutral tuned iem at this price range.

Will you be posting your Shuoer EJ07M review soon? =)

I recently tried the Moondrop Variations. While it does have good technicalities and details, I found it to lack the slight body/warmth I prefer in my IEMs.

I'm wondering if the Shuoer EJ07M will fit the bill and might place an order during the 11/11 sales. I'm mainly looking for an upgrade from my LZ A7 gold monitor - just looking for better bass quality / overall timbre.

Thanks

Sorry, I dont have much time lately. Will review the Audiosense DT600, GS Audio ST1 and (depends on when I get it) the Tin Hifi P1 Plus first. So I have a pretty big backlog, not to mention ranking the Sennheiser CX400BT, Audio Technica R70x and the Intime Sora Light 2019.

Have you ever considered the ISN EST50?

Just from this little time with the EJ07m, would you say it's a big improvement over the FH3? I have come to really like the FH3 and it's sound signature again lately, finding a better fit and going balanced through the BTR5... You were the one who pushed me to it initially and I thank you for that. EJ07m seems to have quite a similar sound from the graphs.
