Yup looks are great but if you buy one always go for a headband, it deteriorates fast really !!!
Clear vs Clear MG a lot of opinions are present but personally havent tried it.
I wish there was entirely black focal clears haha !!!
@FocalOfficial Why not make an entirely black or transparent headphone

Elex is as close as you can get to entirely black Focal Clears. Very similar sounding headphones. You can read my comparison between the two here.

This is not a Penon tuned IEM. It's a third party IEM sold on their store.

I don't have any multi DD IEMs in my collection (and the HBB DQ6s certainly isn't in the running anymore). I also know two ladies who are heavily into cats. So at the very least, they are worth a ton of brownie points!

Synergy is difficult to predict. The Geek Wold GK10 really shines with the Hidizs AP80 Pro X via balanced. This track sounds great:
I am finding the GK10 absolutely wonderful on my Hidizs AP80 Pro X via balanced. This really sounds good:

For Moondrop fanboys, looks like there is a new version of the KATO coming:

Not sure if this is just a reskin or there is a change in the original tuning.

For those who like to tip-roll, Spinfit W1 is released now, can be bought on Amazon. Price: $20.

Here is it side-by-side with the CP-100+. The texture is grippier, resulting in better isolation. Stem is also longer and stiffer, so less prone to deformation (2nd pic).

So far I like them on IEMs that have a larger/heavier shell. The W1 offers more stability than the CP-100+ or such.

So new best tips for Tanchjim and BLON?

Just checked on AE Penon store and it's $55, $65 or $75, I actually prefer the graphic on the $55 silver version.

Yep, I thought I might double check that and see but I got busy with other stuff. Thanks!

Sorry for the wrong price due to system issue , we just corrected it .pls check again :

Z-Reviews finally got a brand deal with Shuoer:

I'm legit surprised it took Zeos this long to finally get a collab given he is one of the most known "Reviewers" in the audiophile space.

I use the word reviewer loosely because Zeos shills pretty much everything and is widely considered to be a joke by most people in the community.

after experimenting with half a dozen single DD, KZ finally return to BA IEM.
Well... True old KZ heritage, an 8 BA IEM


No news on what BA used or pricing info yet.
but with recent KZ re-tuning effort and being well aware on the old drama, hopefully this will be good.

KZ AS16 Pro published curve,

Translated by Xerus-kun from KZ-Discord

reminder, its no external party measurement
but it seems it going to go with the new kz attempt on warm-harman sig with extra bass, maybe to compensate BA bass?
---
The already out CCA Lyra, the 8k spike still being questioned as several measurement shows it but didn't manage to hear it.

Zeos is someone who just enjoy things, he just spreads the love of the hobby.
he is not exactly critical critics or someone who could nitpick every details, i sometimes hear his reviews just to hear him gush over things.

Yup, mostly harmless entertainment!

I agree, somewhat disjointed rambling, but still entertaining! All reviewers have different strengths and weaknesses. That's why it's nuts to rely on just one.
