Yeah the science of treble is fascinating. Bass, bass to mid trans, few variations..... mids to early treble a few generally... treble overall is as varied as can be possible. Amazing what a dip here and a bump there can do up there

Well said.

Hawaiibadboy is a great contributor here and on Youtube. Thank you for all your time and effort it's greatly appreciated, EVEN if people don't always agree with you.

Well totally! the p1 with "true harman" preset turns form dr. Jeckyl to mr. Hyde.. amazing how you much you can enhance the sound and remove the weaknesses of a headphone.

Great to hear that. Ordered mine last Thursday but nothing here yet. Should have chosen the express option.

Yeah I thought about paying an extra $28 for DHL shipping but then decided against it since I can get 1-2 new chifi pairs just for that shipping cost.

Based on past experience with this seller and Ali, I'm hoping early next week... I'm listening to the Bqeyz Spring 1 right now, and I've discovered it must be listened to at high volume, so I don't think they're going to end up being very comparable to each other as I first thought.

Anyone tried these balanced yet?

 

[PoetOfTheKill]

My tapes should be arriving tomorrow and I can't wait to try them. I'm currently using my p1 but it's kinda annoying that on my DAP I have to max the volume and put on high gain for decent volume. The fact that the tapes with consume less power is more than enough reason for me try them

 

[LostxFound]

Just got the tape and so far I much prefer it to the P1, clarity is similar but to me the tapes sound cleaner than the P1's with all my music so far.

They definitely sound more open than the p1 plus the subbass is more pronounced.

The P1 was good too but something about it didn't vibe with with me, plus I buy iems for portability and would rather avoid needing a full sized headphone amp when I have speakers for that kind of listening.

Would have been nice if I could a/b directly but my P1 has already been returned.

Audio is subjective to the individuals taste but based off my initial impressions these are more along the lines of what I was looking for when I initially ordered the p1. Very Noyce.

Forgot to add- The fit is no contest, miles better than the P1 for me.

These Tape don't have big nozzles like P1 do they ?
How about tonality...cold/neutral/natural/warm ?

First stop tonality, 2nd stop comfort 3rd stop musicality/technicalities....without 1 and 2 right for my preference, I can't keep gear..

Hey, can you clarify few things about tape?

1. How about speed?
2. Do they sound natural or analytical?
3. How is treble done on tape? Can it be harsh at loud volumes? I generally like the treble on planars, very smooth and not overwhelming.

TIA

 

[PoetOfTheKill]

To me they sound more analytical
And the treble on high volumes can be harsh imo

 

[Libertad]

seems like it would play well with fast technical tracks like progressive psytrance...im having a itch for a new in ear
