So I had a relization. Just noticing that earphones now a days all sound pretty damn good. I havent really had one that I can say was an absolute fail. Seems SQ is ramping up more and more now a days. I think competing manufacturers are noticing this too. Such competion only means. Better stuff for us.

No longer do we need to shell out $500 for a great sounding iem. My H40 and TRi I3 has proven to me how good stuff can sound withought spending a ransome. With that being said it is the mid fi realm that is really intriguing. That Blessing 2 is less than the first Blessing. RP being $320 or so. From the looks of it. It should be every bit as good as my IT04 maybe even better which was $500. Heck right now I would actually take my H40 over the IT04.

Progress is good my friends!

I would add to this Shuoer Singer. Ammmmazing for $75. I actually prefer it to Tape and haven't listened to either it04 or H40 since I've got it 48 hours ago. Most interesting that today I have a-b comparison to my beloved Sony N3ap and OMG! This one does everything that N3ap is famous for, and does most of it better. Better bass with deep rumble & no bloated midbass, better treble than Sonys Magnesium BA Super Twitter.
The only possible complain would be that it's FR is V-shaped and mids are more prominent on N3. But the soundstage is better on Singer. (That is with NiceHCK 4 core spc for $8 which I prefer to stock one).
Sound signature is similar to Tape, but with upper mids less emphasized (maybe that also gives Tape an edge on sound stage)

Yeah that Singer, with a Electrostatic and a Dynamic driver, has me curious. Cheap enough for a quick purchase as well.

BTW it comes with 3 tuning nozzles that I didn't experiment with yet. Using it with default one with no dampening inside. Attached rubber wings from old Sony TWS. Singer is pretty comfy and smaller than picture would suggest.

DK-2001. These things look Dope on a rope.
Just threw them in my ears. They sound as good as they look. Treble shimmers, Smooth, detailed, lush, mids sound liquid. Bass got thump with the right amount of aggression. Very comfy in the ear. Gonna keep listening to these tonight. New DUNU got it going on fellas.

How is isolation on Dunu? FH7 is double-vented and isolation was a fail for me. Any comparisons appreciated!

 

[Dsnuts]

Isolation is not the best on the DK2001 it is about average. Not great but not bad either. I took them to my local Best buy today actually and tried them out and about. Did a great job but it does let in some ambient noise. Them dark circles on the housing is a grill for venting.

Rediscovering a Head-fi classic in the RE600s. Wonderfully near-neutral signature that provides a top tier listening experience, hindered only by a very lame cable.

sounds interesting. how would you compare it to the OH10?

The Uranus is warmer sounding and it has a more laid-back presentation.

Oh yea AT always has nice looking stuff. Their use of titanium metal and the allure of a shiny new flagship. Most definitely hanging fruit. For the cost I bet there are $500 earphones that are being sold right now that have a better sound. That wouldn't surprise me one bit.

IF AT gave me a $1200 flagship earphone to review I am sure I will bend my ways and learn to like it myself. I would take that initial view with much grain. However that guy did clue in on some sound quarks on his impressions. I am sure it sounds good. It better for the cost but. As of now I have no reason to even be remotely interested in those. They need to prove that they can come out with a $130 phone that trounces earphones that cost 3X the cost. Then maybe I can be interested.

Yea you are right about "For the cost I bet there are $500 earphones that are being sold right now that have a better sound". Personally, I have tried the ATH-IEX1 for a long session and not impressed at all. Just not what I would expect from a flagship TOTL IEM due to its poor resolution and quirky tuning.

Has anyone seen the Vsonic GR07 32ohm RED version? It's on Ali and I've asked Vsonic if it's the bass version / classic / or new version but haven't been able to get a response. Anyone here have any idea on which one it could be? Also, is the GR07 a good choice for someone looking for strong bass /midbass / mids?

Edited number of nozzles, assumed it was standard 3 until I got to it finally...oops

I ll do my best to write down my first review on these guys soon enough
Interesting though having both BR5 & BR5/MK II revised version from Rose Technics how those compare to both of them.....

I know this thread is mostly about individual models, but I had a wow experience with a plug-in DSP option through hiby music.

While messing around with settings on my hiby 6 pro, I updated my long overlooked plugins in hiby music.

I don't know if this is hiby only or what but the plug-in "efotech uspatializer" provides a really entrancing surround effect. Much more so than any other DSP/EQ seeing i've played with so far. There's no real loss of quality but a very, very different listening experience spatially. It'll be fun to listen to this on different sets, right now, with the TRI I3 it's a really fun effect, akin to making everything sound like a binaural recording.....

Have covered it on page 4, https://audio123reviews.com/2019/12/09/ibasso-am05/4/. I prefer AM05 over BR5 MKII.

So a bit of bad news. I could have sworn I orderd the Blessing 2 a week or so before festivities in China.

I get the message saying it can't be shipped before the holiday. Of course I am the nice guy and say no problem but.

That means they have to get the phones from Moondrop before they can ship em to me? How is it that they advertise as having them in stock and not have any in stock? Oh well it is what it is.
