It looks nice and is built well, just not offering anything new or different, except for its good looks. I thought it was pretty?

Not really special in technicalities or very special as far as a tune goes, there are a bunch that sound like it this year. Also it’s a sub-brand for TINHIFI go check out the Facebook page, all TINHIFI posts/employees there.

Yeah I know that they connected to Tinhifi, I did a review on their Wave before. I don't really expect a good technical performance, but its tonality sounds decent enough.

Yea TKZK Wave is pretty nice simple bellsing 1+1 that revitalizes old KBEAR Lark spirit. The flat bass response is something unique with other 1+1 tuned with elevated bass.

A.S. I think your Impressions of the two are bang on. I prefer the sound of the SR5 tuning over the SR7 personally and like the added energy in the highs. I was a bit worried as I am a bit treble sensitive but no worries for me and at volumes I should not be listening to.
Any chance you could compare the SR5 with the Xenns Top?
They are completely different price brackets, but what's the similarities and what's de diferences?
How much of a improvement is the Top Vs the SR5?

I have been enjoying this combo A LOT in the last few days:

Noble Audio's awesome Stage 3 IEMs, paired with iFi GO Pod.
iFi providing THE BEST Bluetooth I ever heard (using LDAC connection to my Samsung phone), and Noble's Stage 3 provides this fun thick sound.
This combo is NOT for treble heads, or for people that are looking for maximum details / accuracy. This combo is for people that just want a fun, relaxing and enjoyable musical experience while running chores or unwinding after a long day :beerchug:
I am sure the experience would change when attaching a colder or more clinical IEM, but I do not want to disconnect the Stage 3, so that will have to wait :laughing:

Thank you @Noble Audio and @iFi audio for creating those amazing products :pray:

BTW, list price for this combo is $1000 (Stage 3 is $600, GO Pods are $400).

Hit “60min online burn-in“ link on my signature.

https://www.chord-m.com/en/?runin=open

It’s a comprehensuve packages of sound signals to ease out hardwares.

I generally do 2 or 3 sets.
So....
I bought Sennheiser ie200, and listened to it twice but i thought they were pretty bad. I put them in a case and forgot about it. Today i tried this link and used it on ie200 4-5 times. They sound better. Now i am not sure if its a placebo effect or are they really better.

My avatar shows my face thinking about this!

Well as far as you get a better experience, let the means to achieve that goal alone😄👏

Life is too short to enjoy the good moments

It could be anything. I highly doubt that it is burn-in. As I know Sennheiser burn-in they headphones in factory, unlike most Chinese brands.
