I think this picture is floating around. But what do you guys think of the Cantor? Team white or yellow? I love the idea of custom faceplates. Reminds me of the custom Thieaudio faceplaces in a way but with more colors in some cases.

Nice, Van Gogh-ish.

Ah, they said screw V-shaped, U-shaped, W-shaped, we're doing Boob-shaped. It's mostly Male audience anyway.

Typically don't trust chi-tws but in theory they should be just as good, since China makes everyone else's tws.

BGVP haven't released a new tws since they got into some of their crazier est designs. I know it's a long shot but I'd love to see some cool driver configurations in a tws. Otherwise I doubt there is a point of difference from what already exists.

My most stable products in TWS IEMs has been from China. Huawei and OnePlus models I have tried has been the most stable without disconnect issues all the time.

The worst ones with the most issues for me is Sony, Bose, Jabra and FIIO.

Why the models from smartphone/electronics companies has worked the best puzzle me.

Here is my Thieaudio monrack mk 2 Disco plates (+150 extra). I like the design of it a great deal. I really like custom faceplates. XD I want to do a review of this iem, but it's just stupid good. It's better than anything I've heard, it's like a paralization of word. IEM good, me like. Hard to say, difficult to define. It makes me rethink so much, but suffice it to say I'm very happy with the purchase.

I just go with Quidelix 5k and the iem of choice. It’s simple and has the clip.

I've been trying to figure out for months how this is any more convenient than having your iem plugged into a phone or DAC. You still have the wires. You still have audio source. You've just also added another clip device.

Juzear 41t (recieved yesterday): flawless, the playing culture is outstanding (close to IEF Neutral target). On top of that, the emphasis on subbass does not make them boring. Great work!

It is for me because it doesn't get in the way of me handling my phone and I can even put my phone down and still have adequate controls over my music.
I can just put a BT dongle in my pocket but I'm constantly handling and putting away my phone. If I have to charge my phone too I'm SOL unless I buy a splitter.

Indeed, BT DAC/Amps are the way to go when on-the-go (pun not intended) if you dislike TWS for any reason.

Also you realise that IEM cables aren't really that in your way if you don't have to wave them around constantly by having it attached to your phone. I used to be one of those who would strap a mojo on the back of my phone but really I can't live that life anymore. 😅
Maybe one day I'll fashion an IEM cable that can hang around my neck as a necklace and I can just plug my BT dongle into.

I like the ability to runaround the house. Yes listening is slightly less but it’s enjoyable. It also lets me charge my iPhone and listen to music at the same time. Not critical listening more convenience. Audeze Maxwell is also great for that but it’s heavy.

I route my cable behind my back and inside my shirt (kinda what singers do), instead of hanging it in front. Then I just clip it wherever I need it to be and then little to no microphonics or tug. It is out and away and not connected to my device. Of course you can have a separate device while having your phone, but I don’t really like carrying a lot, even if I do have a bag and whatnot.
