Very interested in your feedback, looking forward for this.Yep should have mine in 2 days. Looking forward to it . Will be good to compare to the Kanas Pro I have as well .

Thanks this is what I was looking for, did you burn them out? And what was your source also. Thanks!!Ok this is my first review/comparison and i'm no audiophile and i'm also 45 years old, so my hearing isn't what it was when I was 20 but here goes.
I have the Moondrop Kanas pro and just received the Tansio Mirai TSMR-3 yesterday and have just done some listening between the two of them to give my impressions of the differences and positives/negatives between them.
The evaluation was done with the TSMR-3 dip-switches set to the 100 bass configuration as I felt this sounded the best of all the settings to my ears. Also know that I am a bit sensitive to treble peaks so take that into consideration.
First I would say that the KP has better and more defined sub-bass and is more punchy (most likely due to be a dynamic vs BA). Having said that the TSMR has it's bass a bit higher up towards the mid-bass region so it is still not a bass shy set.
Mids are a bit of a wash, though I would say the upper mids on the TSMR are a bit more forward making male vocals stand out a bit more and with more body than the KP.
Treble is where it gets interesting. The TSMR has better extension and brings out slightly more details than the KP at the expense of sounding a bit harsh in some songs and sibilant at times. I also find the KP to produce some sibilance and sometimes the highs on the KP don't feel as full bodied and are rolled off if that makes sense.
Soundstage - the KP has a slightly wider stage, while the TSMR also adds some depth to it that the KP doesn't have.
The TSMR are a lot easier to drive than the KP as well if that matters to you.
They are both great sounding headphones and I will do some more listening and may share some more findings later but this was a quick comparison.

Welcome to the team!
You got the Penon CS819 cable right?
Small update. I received the Tansio's last night and they really are fantastic. I was hoping to provide a full review but I'm running into one small issue. These IEM's have a low impedance of 15 Ohms and I'm getting a decent amount of static/background noise on both the Shanling M3s and the LG G7 Thinq as sources. It'd be hard providing a complete review without a black background. I had planed selling the Shanling M3s but now I'm contemplating whether or not to get iFi Eimatch and/or pickup the Kanas Pro.
What cable are you using it with?
I tried both the stock cable and the Penon CS819 cable. Ran into the same issue with both.
Okay. Technically the noise should be lower with the stock cable since it has a higher impedance. I guess then either the M3 and G7 have a higher noise floor or you are probably listening to them with chargers plugged in. With chargers plugged in, the background noise rises because of the current flow from the charger.
I do hear some background hiss but it's quite low enough to not be a problem. Background hisses will always be present in earphones which have low impedance and high sensitivity.
