Settled with spiral dots instead. Felt spinfits was too congested. Symbio w on the other added sibilance. Also changed the cable to a custom litz spc.

Well hello and I am back. Today is the day I am trying something different. So far I am crazy in love with how they sound. It's a slight mod, but do at your own risk. But I can say detail retrival, texture in the lows has gone a good step up. But maybe foams are needed. So far using spin fits and no troubles with sibilance. But yes I think I love the NP like this. I will try other matterials later in the future.

No matter how beneficial this can be to the sound, I'm not comfortable lookin at this, like at all......

Haha I know, I felt the same right after I took of the metal mesh, but after a listen I was impressed. Im going to try thinner materials so it protects the ba from any dust.

Yeah you do that, don't let them out in this cruel world being naked like that.

So I have changed the metal grill to a slightly thinner mesh grill now. The treble seems to be a bit more sparkly while mids so slightly more clearer and lows slightly less but maybe a tad tighter. So far a nice change

Those of you running your NPs in balanced, do you find the L/R balance to be slightly...off?

I'm deciding whether to buy the New Primacy as a replacement for the Flare Audio Flares Pro: has anyone had some experience with both the iems? I liked the Flares' open soundstage and precise bass but the sibilance was hard to tollerate after a few tracks. Is the Primacy affected by sibilance?
Thank you so much and any suggestion is very appreciated!

JVC spiral dots, my recommendation for them. Wider soundstage, very nice coherency and even sound.
Symbio W by MandarinES is also really good, a little more treble and narrower, tighter sound than the spiral dots.

I’ve personally sold a 700$ IEM because I preferred the ONP... also tried some in the 500$ range and like the ONP better.

Could you or anyone recommend a JVC Spiral Dots size for me? I get a good seal with the default silicone tips the ONP have on when you open them. Would the size be Medium for the Spiral Dots?

Question answered by Oriveti.

Just wanted to thank everyone who recommended these: absolutely in LOVE!!! Such a musical set of IEM’s. Very emotional connection to the music and exceptional details shining through.

Can anyone compare ONP to Dunu C Falcon and Fiio FH5? I only listened to Fiio so any help would be appreciated. Listening from LG V30.

Here is Ryan Soo's take on the FH5 and has them compared with the ONP:

Thank you. From that comparision and looking at build and price I might try Dunu

Or you can pick up a used pair of the dk3001.

Does anyone have an issue with the ONP cable connectors showing a little space at the base of the phones? I can see some gold and was wondering if the reason I’m getting loss of signal and timbre lately is due to a faulty cable? Or is there normally a little space?

There shouldn't be too much space. Just a tiny bit can still be normal, but if the jack is becoming loose, you may ask your seller about warranty. Photo for reference.
