Well they survived 11 hours of burn in.just hoping it keeps doing that
Not to ruin the parade and hype on this iem.
Maybe people misinterpret extreme piercing treble for clarity.
I am totally not impressed by this iem, even whatever price point they are.
Im selling mine for 1/3 off the original price. Just take this away from me.
edit: corrected my math and grammar
Please: Open T4.... test it! we need feedbacks and side by side. Ordered Tape´s on 11-11 doesn´t arrived yet, T4 passed... maybe sometime in the future.... Huge expectations on Shouer btw.Today got the delivery of both Shuoer Tape and Tin T4 and after listening to Tape for few hours I am truly amazed at the detail retrieval, bass slam and details to die for cant believe it was only 100$ I paid on 11/11, now I dont even want to open T4 they are still sitting sealed and I am wondering what additional improvement they can bring. I had/have SE846, DM6, Tin P1, Blon-03 , Tape truly blows all of them out of water.
Based on graphs and impression by others, T4 is a just more expensive Blon BL03. So if you heard BL03 you prolly wont hear anything new.Today got the delivery of both Shuoer Tape and Tin T4 and after listening to Tape for few hours I am truly amazed at the detail retrieval, bass slam and details to die for cant believe it was only 100$ I paid on 11/11, now I dont even want to open T4 they are still sitting sealed and I am wondering what additional improvement they can bring.

You must compare the T4s and the Tapes the thread humbly requests you do soToday got the delivery of both Shuoer Tape and Tin T4 and after listening to Tape for few hours I am truly amazed at the detail retrieval, bass slam and details to die for cant believe it was only 100$ I paid on 11/11, now I dont even want to open T4 they are still sitting sealed and I am wondering what additional improvement they can bring.

Hey-hey, welcome, and thanks for letting us know how you feel about the Tapes.Hello Head-Fi. This is my first post here. Nice to meet you!
Today I received my pair of Shuoer Tapes. As a reference, my daily drivers at home are the Stax SR-Lambda NB electrostatic headphones/earspeakers from 1979 and Sennheiser HD 6XX when I'm in the kitchen making food. For music-listening on the go I have been using a pair of Tin HiFi T2's.
When I first put on the Tapes I thought that they were very bright. I gave them 30 minutes of pink noise and when I put them on again, I found them to be less bright. Did the sound really change or was it just my mind playing tricks on me, who knows.
I have never heard anything more detailed than my old pair of Stax headphones, but I am still very impressed with the Tapes. They really are detail-monsters.
Another cool thing about the Tapes are their soundstage. With all the IEM's I have heard in my life, the sound has always been "in my head", but with the Tapes, the soundstage seems to go out of my head, maybe 2 centimers from my ears. While the soundstage is the biggest I have heard in an IEM, the intimacy is still there. Somehow they are both intimate and big sounding.
Vocals are great. Not too forward and not too recessed.
The bass is good too. It doesn't add any extra bass to the songs, but when the bass is supposed to hit hard, it does.
Overall, I am very impressed. This is the best IEM I have heard.
Feel free to ask any questions, and I will do my best to answer them.
Nope, it is different. BL03 bass is more punchy, T4 isn't.you prolly wont hear anything new
Hey-hey, welcome, and thanks for letting us know how you feel about the Tapes.
Glad you like them!
What are the best IEM's you've heard outside the Tapes?
And what is your source for the Tapes?
I too have an old pair of Lambdas.
No Senn's though.
I do have a pair of Denon D2000's that I love, and my mobile headphones are Sony MDR1-A's (they don't get much use though as I usually use my CIEM's (re-shelled UE TF10's with added dynamic driver, by Cosmic Ears).
Mobile sources are either my Echobox Explorer, or a Sony phone, but my wish list for the future is the Tape, and a BTR5 (or similar, maybe the Qudelix will be released by the time I can raise the money!)
