Penon is a first class company. They are reliable and their customer service is second to none.This year I have purchased 3 IEMs and a cable from Penon and have been great to work with. You might want to consider if you are judging a book by its cover.

LMAO "black market email transaction?" Huh?Alright, I took the GK200 off the list for QC concerns, but now the Quintet and the Quattro are on the eventual buy list. I'd be more tempted to snag a Quattro if it wasn't some shady back-channel deal to get one. The Penon audio website is already sketchy enough, I don't need a black-market email transaction on top of that.
I got sent a PayPal invoice after I agreed to purchase a Quattro. It shipped the next day and I got it within a week.
They can't even make enough of these and you need to be picked to even purchase one.

Just got in a Dunu Mirai. It was a purchase, but I heard it at Can Jam and am a big fan. Sold a few things to help afford it. So far, it's really good.

I am excited to see one of my favourite reviewers reviewing the brain child of one of my favourite reviewers
Thanks! I’m excited to get into it. It’s a very interesting iem. I got to hear it at can jam!I am excited to see one of my favourite reviewers reviewing the brain child of one of my favourite reviewers
NiceHCK F1 Pro landed for me with the all-new Cyan upgrade cable. I have been listening to this set since 12PM today(and it's about 4 PM now). The combo of Cyan Cable and NiceHCK F1 Pro IEM sounds a little warm and a little smooth. I would say this is probably the smoothest and safest Planar IEM out there today(not including the S15 because that's a different league altogether). Will listen more and share deep initial impressions and some comparisons with Hidizs MP145(my favorite planar in this budget). Some Eye-candy to follow for my dear friends:-

At least to this guy, its sounds great.
Seems exotic drivers have crossed over to more main stream TWS

Yes, it is.
In fact the previous F1 version was already smooth with the balanced filter.
I haven't measured the F1 Pro version yet...

The Soundrhyme dte900 is considered value at its price? If so, how does it compare to some of the Aur Audio, Mangard, Softears, and other iems in this price range?
I thought I was tongue-in-cheek enough to make it clear that I'm both interested in purchasing an IEM from them and hyperbolically apprehensive (I feel like if a hobby can't acknowledge that sending an email to a vendor to ask to purchase an unlisted product is a little... strange, then the shark may have been fully jumped)This year I have purchased 3 IEMs and a cable from Penon and have been great to work with. You might want to consider if you are judging a book by its cover.
I didn't mean to activate the Penon brigade so strongly. I'm legitimately interested in several of their IEMs. But, I mean, can we all agree their logo was designed by a high schooler in the late nineties?
I mean, go ahead and stick with something for brand consistency, I get that, but woof.

The Oriveti OD100 are a little guy with a unique sound mastery. They have a distinct tuning and they effortlessly excel in pulling that off. Just posted my review here:
Oriveti OD100 - The Little Master
In fact, they are so good, that I keep missing them even while I am listening to the OH700VB!
