I love my Lyra v1. I added a better cable and it is a sweet sound. Warm but with enough details that they truly sing. This is one piece that I would not sell...

Exactly same sig as the Lyra1

Never heard the Lyra I. Can you give some details about them

 

[Karendar]

give me a couple of days

Keep me posted please. They are releasing it on october 20th in Canuck land, which is the day I'm coming back from my vacation. Depending on if this doubles as a decent dap (comparable to say a Fiio x3 or x5) then I'm probably jumping onboard. If I sell my Fiio x5 and subsidise it, I'll end up getting it for 0$

Warm but also v shaped. Enough sparkle up top to counteract the bass. Not probably a signature I would gravitate to - but I really enjoy them.



Click for full sized. The 7 kHz spike is masked a bit by the bass.

And just so people notice - that isn't the left and right channel matching. That is the Lyra 2 against the Lyra 1 on the same rig. Now go find the Lyra 2 reviews which talk about a sonic improvement over the original ........

And you can use 1 and 2 together (one in each ear) - perfect stereo image

That is hilarious hahaha! Lyra series are highly underrated. Vega steals all of spotlight.

Well I just lost $11.00 I realized recycled shanling m3s packaging.

Did not expect this recall. :c i had to pay to ship it but I guess shanling had to do what they had to.

I just prefer the matte finish to the gloss finish of Lyra 1. But cool to see the measurements between the two

A little rich for my blood. It's really funny about the measurements though - I was just reading a review about how much better mk11 is.

And its one of the biggest problems with reviewers who are completely subjective. If there is expectation bias at play, you will use that information regardless if it is correct or not. Heck when I was testing the two side by side - before I measured - even I thought there might have been very small differences. It wasn't until I put one earpiece in one ear (Lyra 1), and the 2nd in the other (Lyra 2), that I realised that any differences I initially thought I was hearing was simply expectation. I then measured them, and the measurements confirmed what I was hearing.

IMO a good reviewer will use both - subjective to describe how they appear to them, and objective measurements to check accuracy of what they are actually describing subjectively.

Bummer you lost money on the deal. If owned it and liked it, I would have kept the dap. Just
because they screwed up doesn't make it your problem.

Someone stop me before it's too late!!! *slaps hand

@barondla
dammit, I should've thought more closely. Damn too late now :c

Sony wanted everyone to return that infrared nightshot camcorder that could see thru certain clothes. Also the 3 Playtation PS3 models that allowed SACD and movies to be ripped. Most consumer turned down those requests. Some of Sony's most useful products have been their screw ups.

Those Campfire IEMs look nice, but you can do better. Look at these full size headphones with detachable speakers! You so need these. Your magic flower pot needs these. http://www.brookstone.com/pd/limite...ess-bluetooth-cat-ear-headphones/320538p.html

if the lyra sounds like the vega, then i'm not gonna even try them. To me the vega sounded really weird, biig bass and thin everywhere else. Not audiophile, not basshead, not worth the price to me.

The perfect iem would be the sony ex1000 without the 4k and 7k spike. which i have but only bring out when i really feel like it.

Lyra II does not have the full on rumble power bass that Vega has. It's not a total roller coaster like Viper.

Lyra II does emphasize the bass if that is something you don't want. Definitely maybe something like sony ex1000 you might be better off with

 

[Fox2twenty]

Can anyone confirm this? I don't wanna give up iems. {even though I have an ear infection right now}
