I'm sorry but I haven't heard the B2.

Technicalities on the A7 are very good imo. Separation and imaging are top notch as is resolution and details. I haven't listened to anything that they can't handle properly but I think our music preferences may be different. I'm sure someone in the A7 thread can help you with your specific music.

Thankyou, appreciate your help. Cheers!

Jerry Harvey did a masterful job on the UE TF10. That was his going away present to Ultimate Ears, and his ability to present an all BA 'phone with the kind of punchy thumpy bass is again..masterful. Even the UE900s doesn't come close.

Just received my DUNU SA3, I am impressed a lot, the build quality is top level with wide range of ear tips.
The sound is very clean with fast transaction, the female vocal presentation is lead class level for its price, really vividly and well position. I will post my review soon.

Looks like our hypetrain golden ears TRN has a competitor! And it is cheaper too!!

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33027403445.html

Of course, nothing is complete if it is not paired with a $4300 USD cable from the same shop. This cable also has very very great synergy with the TRN golden ears IEM.

As claimed in the store page, only the king of gods can use it. No mere mortals can ever hope to even listen to the music from it, for fear of being struck by lightning!

"THE TEMPERAMENT OF THE KING OF THE GODS" they must have gotten that line from the not-all-there, lost-some-marbles guy on the street corner

Edit: Only 7 BAs per side? TRN really needs to get the TRN-GOLD-BA8 out if they even hope to compete

Have tried their IEMs and they are revolutionary in redefining what's bad sound. Don't know what gives them the confidence to charge that price for their mediocre sounding products.

Anyways, some other stuff on Aliexpress that doesn't require one to sell away your kidneys, home, kids and dog.

1) Rock Space RAU0695 Obsidian/Rock Obsidian
On multiple shops on Aliexpress
10 mm single DD
$13.70
Looks like non detachable cable though





2) XBA knowles Hybrid in ear earphone (Pizen)
On multiple shops on Aliexpress
1DD + 2BA
$49.40
Looks like a pirated Sony LOL, even the XBA word is copied.






3) Toneking Dendroaspis Viridis earbud
On multiple shops on Aliexpress
Three Diaphragm Dynamic Drive Unit (PU + Peek + Ti)
$119 USD
Looks as garish as the BLON BL-05S. Any one dares to wear this down the street?

FYI, googled "Dendroaspis Viridis" and it is a Western African Green Mamba snake. Highly venomous, perhaps it is another "female poison" tuning? Sibilance ssssssss like a snake?

That Toneking earbud caught my eye. Interesting driver - Three Diaphragm Dynamic Drive Unit (PU + Peek + Ti).

Managed to do up some reviews on the QoA Vesper ! https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/qoa-vesper.24535/reviews Shozy rouge as well on our site!

Seeing as I already have the Black Bat, there was only one way to find the TRUTH. 'Curiosity killed the cat'.....I ordered the Open Hearts....£22 with coins. The only way to find out! Smabat say they tune the Black Bat themselves, and the specs are slightly different, but copying is pretty rife in ChiFi. Maybe an OEM make both the Open Heart and the Black Bat. We shall find out. The Black Bat is a bass monster, with reasonable treble detail and recessed mids, but not too recessed. It can't match a DD + 2 BA's for detail and treble though. Sherlock Holmes, IEM detective, is on the case. Now to wake up with my Macchiato.

Don't forget to tell us...

An almost identical earphone called the 6-in-1 was extremely popular a number of years ago. The brand is banned, so I can’t say the name (it started with an S).

Thanks for the headsup. I wouldn't be surprised this is an OEM of what you described. This kind of behaviour is very common in CHIFIdom.

Have u managed to have a listen to it before? Does it sound even close to a Sony XBA set?
