I have one of these arriving today.I suppose there are only so many ways to jam something in your ear.
Spotted this Toneking 9way tunable IEM on Penon, looks pretty original (& possibly painful) though.

So I've been listening to these since they arrived today and they sound fantastic. I've only tested with the default silver filters so far, will try the others tomorrow. Nice cable. Nice, balanced sound, great tonality and detail. I'm wearing them over ear, which I think is how they're intended to be worn (lol?) but find them really comfortable. Bass is full but clean and well controlled, great sub-bass. Super nice treble with no sibilance but good extension. Soundstage is good too. Can't find anything negative yet but give me some time I'll sure there's something. Really impressed with these so far.

Any comparison with the DM5 to a Magaosi K3?

A couple new Koss. Well the same headphone in closed and open versions for gaming or portable listening with mic/remote.
https://www.koss.com/headphones/over-ear-headphones/gmr-545-air
Cheap at $60 with two cables. Open is interesting for around the house/PC and perhaps a very good stage. May benefit from a better cable(most likely) just like it's brother the UR42i. That one is still a good one that is not quite as glowingly good to me as the reviews say w/o a better cable but they are seriously less popular than they should be. Most likely due to the resemblance to it's cheaper little brother which is fun to tinker and mod but not a serious phone though a quick check should tell that the UR42i has one of the better Koss drivers and the UR23i doesn't.

Pretty tasteful styling by "gamer gear" standards also.

Yeah, probably due to the dual purpose if you put in the regular cable and head out they will not look like you are wearing a gaming headset...
Not bad looking in the least. Better looking than the UR42i actually I think,

They just did a release party for these at our local "Nerd Bar" https://42lounge.com/
A friend of mine won a pair of them for some kind of trivia or raffle. I'm bugging him to let me borrow them for a bit, but I don't know that I'll get the chance. He says they're awesome and he's gaming with them every night.

So The DZ 7s have been ordered and the seller says the "new" unit has a 9mm DD in it. Any idea which DD they used before?

Been listening to the DM5 with a new balanced cable I bought off of Amazon. They sound fantastic balanced. They keep on getting better and better. Stupendous value and they still have more room for improvement. Ordered more higher end cables to use on them.

Look forward to read your take on these. Maybe just maybe I will actually get my Hunters from Trinity. Wishful thinking.
