Well, guess who just ordered these:

https://www.aliexpress.com/store/pr...ml?spm=2114.12010615.8148356.1.6fc95a87CxjRBL

The DZX -14BA! NiceHCKs flagship IEM.

Really excited and very curious to find out how they'll sound. I'll definitely write a detailed, dedicated review with high-quality photos and all that good stuff once I got to listen to them extensively. There'll also be comparisons against the Hisenior flagship, the T12U (12BA per side)! That should be very interesting indeed.

Further, I ordered the 2-Pin, instead of MMCX, I hope this is a wise decision. Can you guys agree on that? I'm not really experienced with long-term durability of MMCX compared to 2-Pin.

Oh! And I also just received a notifcation that my Hisenior T12 are finished. They just sent me pictures of the final product:

I was a bit worried that they might not look as a amazing as imagined, but I'm happy with my design choice!
Nice , the shells looks pretty small for 12ba drivers, that's a good thing ,

The one thing I get from the various NiceHCK products. They all have good mids and always have bass. You would figure since they use dual dyanmics per housing it should have a strong out put of bass. Probably their bass head version of their semi customs. No one at headfi owns them. I would ask Jim at NiceHCK what they are like. He might be able to give you a good idea.

Yes, you wonder how they fit so many drivers in one T12 earpiece... but it is really six (6) dual BA drivers per side:
  • 2x knowles HODVTEC-31618 dual woofers (lows)
  • 2x sonion 33AP007 tandem broadband drivers (mids)
  • 1x knowles SWFK-31736 dual tweeter (highs)
  • 1x knowles SWFK-31736 dual tweeter (super highs)
...and most probably you can extrapolate this way of driver per earpiece counting to great majority of multi BA earphones.

Super Highs lol...what a gimmick

Well... if you put two same treble drivers on different crossover passbands - technically you do get "lower-highs" and "higher-highs"... it is just a matter of how do you market that...

Yes, "super highs" might sound gimmicky, but if mentioned treble crossover scheme is implemented properly it produces a, so called, "extended treble" and, concretely, on T12 this "gimmick" works rather splendid.

No, I do understand it just funny to hear. I think most reviewers I've read say, Lows, Bass, Lower Mids, Mids, and Highs.

I got my HK6 back today. They sound exactly the same as when I shipped them out. No change. New sources and all.

I won't be wasting any more time with them. If someone wants to buy them at a discount, i'll offer them up, but be warned, they have far too much upper bass/lower mids to even be considered without massive EQ correction.

Thanks for the update. The power of brain-in is largely underestimated in these parts imo.

In your experience don't different people hear the same thing differently? I reckon thats the case here.
Did you show some love to TSMR?
