Great minds!

Once the P5 novelty wears off they’ll show up in the sales forum.

When their Band 8 releases internationally (P8), you may see a flood of P5s

Good to know 7Hz’s 2DD. That’s interesting.

I’m curious about this one too. The 7hz Eternal was kind of a bust. It seems to me that they’re probably looking to solidify their DD offerings.

And what ever happened with rumors around a Timeless 2.0? The AE isn’t it, is it? I could have sworn there were murmurs about a new planar driver coming down the pike for it?

They’re making a strong push into the market for sure. If the P5 is received with the same enthusiasm they’ll be off to the races.

Monolith style.

Just an observation. Trying to find some used Aful performer 5’s and there are precisely zero on the used market. Compared to anything else I search, where there are plenty. People must be really liking these and not wanting to pass them along, eh?
I have the Yanyin moonlight and absolutely love them. Wanting a second neutralish set I feel less bad about taking to the gym and it seems like the Aful is what I’m after. If anyone wants to get rid of theirs let me know! Thought about the cadenza but it looks like way too much treble for my tastes.

The Cadenza treble will offend nobody I think it's pretty mellow.

Wow! I didn’t even know Meizu are still going and making DAPs…! I had Meizu’s mp3 player like 20 years ago…

It depends of treble definition I guess, to some people 3-4khz maybe already treble, of which Cadenza has Harman lift around that area. Old transmissions only considered up to 5.5khz.

No kidding! I was under the impression they had completely gone under, their cellphones used to be quite lovely around the times of 2015-2016 and then they disappeared kinda outta nowhere

Oh no. Don’t tell me that. Now I’m gonna want that one!

Although it’s a bit of a let down they didn’t go the tribrid route with a couple est’s in there. Or at least from the little I can gather about them, it seems that is the case. Just extra BA’s and a different more mid centeric tuning is sorta what I gathered.

Did anyone ever determine which ba drivers are in the performer 5? Looks like the 8 has Knowles and Sonion if the stuff I’m reading is accurate.

Merry Christmas from Australia!

Got my audiosense AQ4 today. For the second Christmas in a row I have a faulty item
Distortion of high frequencies in one ear. Faulty BA or bad soldering possibly.
Probably outside the Ali return window, so will see what audiosense CS is like.

See where P5 will be located

P5 is pretty hard earned money worthy investment you’d make for neutral reference monitor

I owed one of those Meizu Musicard mp3 players. What a hunk of garbage. I hope this is light years better as a flagship from that bright player?
