This is one excellent sounding IEM. A bit of Sunday reading. My thoughts on the Mofasest Trio

For those interested, I have done a comparison between the TRI I3 and IMR EDP here:

I am aware some would not touch IMR with a barge pole, and I understand. However, this is merely a comparison.

Hi @ChrisOc, what a fantastic comparison. Chapeau!!
Thanks al lot

Just wanted to try out some japanese iems. And the "VST" driver sounded cool on paper

I ordered the Co-donguri Brass balanced, in hopes that it is also another hidden gem. (probably not though )

How are the it00's? I'm looking for a backup pair since my kanas pro started playing up and one of the sides just went very quiet. My main iem is fdx1 but the kpe I will severely miss as it has that beautiful tonality and is amazing for vocals. I would love an iem like the kpe with similar technicalities to the fdx1. I do remember liking the it01 but the vocals weren't that great so was curious on what the it00's were about.

Try to removing the grill and clean it up. Just uplift from the side of the grill with a needle. A lot of case with one side of IEM become quiet because of the nozzle grill being clogged.

The KPE comes with their old filter which is really prone to get clogged due to moisture in general, cleaning helps in some cases but it's not a 100% fix. I'd recommend getting their new filters with the extra layer that prevent this issue:

https://aliexpress.com/item/4000898373412.html? (this one comes with their foam tip called MISFIT)

You can get them for $5, you just gotta replace them and your KPE will be brand new again.

btw I'm in the same boat looking for a beater still deciding between NF Audio NA2 and IT00, so let me know if you find something that's similar to KPE and FDX1 in tech (I have the KXXS and FDX1 so probably it's very similar).

I wonder just how many IEMs would benefit from this filter and not just Moondrop ones... Too many to count I assume.

That's not that long of a wait, 3 months... Just imagine if you ordered them from Linsoul! Seriously, watching this pair evolve is kind of fun. Hopefully they're actually good, but I'll wait until they're actually available and unbiased opinions are out there.

OMG that doughnut shaped foam is great damper for sibilances without blocking the air flow. Though i prefer the middle mesh also have holes on center, anybody can make that, they have the winning formula under their sleeve.
Do you know that they are available on different sizes? edited : NVM they come out with exact size for their line ups. currently available for 3.9mm (SSR) and 4.3mm (KP, KXXS, Starfield)

and on second sight, we need something like this but much more quantity on sponge but still with holes on center for better airflow (bass impact, texture, and overall quality)

Will review it if I get a replacement unit, as my unit has channel imbalance

 

[tgx78]

Ouch, that’s a shame. Hope you get a replacement unit soon.

yeah, hopefully.....
First time I bought from Advancedmp3players and also the first time I got something that is faulty right from the start....(even my urbanfun didnt have any problems until after 3 cable changes )

As expected from MMCX power

Dont think it is the mmcx actually. It is a very tight connection and seems pretty high quality.
