Went through the review, quite spot on based on my own experiences, especially with the notes on the Treble, although I didnt go that deep into detail with my notes.

That's a nice looking graph!

Certainly a few of those on ebay. Thinking of grabbing an MD player that is cheap right now. Kenwood under $50 shipped and handsomely understated in the black with blue trim...

I'm surprised that my Sony MZ R50 fired up right away, once I found the AC adapter; it was sitting in a drawer for more than 15 yrs. The internal battery is dead, but that's not a big deal, as their one failing is they would skip, if jostled.

I recommend that you should save up for the higher tiers like the LZ A7, Tanchjim Oxygen. Otherwise enjoy what you have thats the important part.

How good is the Tanchjim Oxygen if compared with the LZ A7 as I can only choose one for the time being

The A7 is better (and definitely more versatile) but the Oxygen is still very impressive for a single DD. If you can only pick one, the A7 is a no brainer with all those configs.

Wonder what'd happen if someone mesh filter modded the BL-01...

With the comment on my review and on Crinacle´s unboxing, it does seem like there is a lot of unit variations between different sets, so that made me quite salty about it...

So I should take that as results would be unpredictable.

Also I may have missed it in this thread but apparently Crinacle just announced a retuned Blessing 2. Blessing 2: Dusk I believe. Should I guess this stands no chance against the A7?

yeah, it seems you are either getting a real gem like BGGAR and Redcarmoose´s units or meh like mine and Crinacle´s.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, graphs are very limited, and only tell a fraction of the story. Still, my interest just plummeted. Will continue to wait any see what initial impressions are.

The graph looks like it’s flipping us off.

Huh, reminds me of the time I went to the Bavarian Alps range. The bass roll-off is expected given the open-back/vented nature but darn the lack of treble air and that massive lower-treble peak is beyond concerning. Also the chasm between lower-mids and upper-mid/treble... such a shame given the IEMs look unlike anything out there.

Looks pretty similar.

The difference between 4-6KHz will make all the difference in the world in the end. SE535 is not competitive anymore though (hasn't been in the past 5 years at least) so I guess won't be too difficult of a task for Fearless Tequila to outshine the old Shure.

Hello, everybody.

I want to link you to my latest review, about the Tin HiFi T1 Plus. As I have a classic taste, I have to say that I liked them.
Let's see what you think.

I politely disagree. Still enjoying my SE535. Some of best vocals I've heard in an IEM to date. Plus, the dampening filters mod is very effective at changing up the sound signature.

It's great that they're working well for you, in the end that's all that matters. I personally find the SE535 to have little treble extension and a very BA-ish timbre, but it's just me and my subjective thought on this particular IEM.

Their head would explode!
