The discovery thread!

How does someone tune so many earphones? He must be paying people to write his audio reviews... or maybe that's why he's using a 2 minute review style now.

And who is paying you to write this comment?

I think @LaughMoreDaily comment was in jest…

iFi xDSD Gryphon is the swiss-army-knife of portable DAC/Amps. Received this one yesterday and loving it so far.

Yep! It is pretty nice! We received one too from @iFi audio (courtesy of their awesome rep @Sebastien Chiu ) to test out our latest prototype. We'll be bringing it to CanJam NYC next month too, so people can check it out at our booth, if anyone here plans on attending!

Thanks guys! I appreciate the love.

Dunu Titan S?

Dunu Titan S



Review in the near future. This is a preproduction unit but essentially sonics are the same as the final production units.

Titan S indeed! I got one to be my around $100 reference point.

TITAN S is not a prototype anymore.

Seems that Dunu is now aiming on those under $100 range too. I only tried Dunu twice, their older models, FLC8 and original Falcon C. I'm also want to test their SA3 and upcoming SA4.

Okay, Single DD?

We do have a prototype single DD that we're testing out, but it's not the one pictured in the back of that image.

Without saying too much before burn-in and before I have the opportunity to try them out properly, so far they are impressive!

Anyone know a good cheap case for storing IEM?
inc. link if possible.

I bought around 20 hard cases from Aliexpress at $1 USD each. Yes $1 USD, not an error!

They look like the above. Just search "KZ ABS resin" on Aliexpress and multiple shops sell it. The inner lining is lined with some sponge thing. Very hardy and cheap and good.

Best part is I have a similar case from Westone which costs $20 USD. Just because they emblazoned some lame brand logo on it, they conveniently jacked up the price by 20x LOL.

Looks like you only tried Dunu once - FLC8 is not made by Dunu

Oh Right it wasn't even Dunu, now I know. Thanks for rectifying my mistake, mate.

If you're looking for a warm sounding Chifi IEM with fairly good detail, great comfort, and which is part of the entry-level bracket, the T3 Plus from Tinhifi and Linsoul Audio redefined my expectations from what Chifi IEMs are able to deliver.

This ain't that shouty, sibilant sound that people usually associate with the Tin series, and T3 Plus actually follows an entirely different signature, which I explore in depth in my full written review, also comparing the new T3 Plus to other IEMs to help you find your next fun dealer~

Ah, but the westone ones actually seal out water. The kz ones don't.

Tested them both in my sink lol.

i'm using these from a physical store near me. though they have a store on shopee SG too. not sure where else to buy them. I like how they stack together which makes them easier to grab for me instead of having multiple smaller ones. Though these are not air tight or what though, so if humidity or moisture is a concern, probably not recommended.
