The PENON official thread

[RumbleWeed]

I ve received these with serial, I ask as a free gift something New because I've tons of the normally included tips. But they are not orange I would say coral.. and they sound good and stick very well!
The creative sxfi no more exits now there is X1 (I wrote to creative). If you have both ru6 and creative how they compare?
I'm so sorry having not tryed r2r ru6 but AliExpress at the end refunded me. Gryphon is another level against dongle, but it's not portable and I tried 1 minute with Bluetooth and I immediately switched to the usb mode. But I don't know which Bluetooth support my Motorola...

Hia matey, just wanted to let you know i just checked the. Creative site and the SXFI is actually on sale for £29.99 and in stock
Also checked out the X1 one and noticed its actually fir windows,mac,psp & switch so i imagine its pretty much thevsame as SXFI but with extra output power?
Just thought id let you know cos its an absaloute steal at £29.99 and you can always return it if you dont get on with it?

What a pairing. I feel for thoose who are non cable believers. The Vocal and the THOR Mjölnir MKII were made to be together ️

It just goes to show how different camers'lighting"resolution ect...REALLY effect colour because in your phito"s the orange is much deeper and shows the material texture which makes a huge difference to "my" eye and i totally take back my previous "cheap,childest"
I actually really like this colour in your shots and hooe this is the colour in hand?
With all that said i do like how they look in "lucanato" shots more redish "coral" as he says! So all in all i like how they look in both photos so all is good
Whats more implortant is when i can get my bloody hands on some lol
Does anyone have any idea what the price will be? Im hoping a set of 3 around the $12.99ish mark?

+ 1 here, I tried to order more for my non Penon sets. Uncertain release date caused by Production delays. On the plus side now we know it's not all business from Penon. Customer satisfaction is paramount than just making a buck (or a quid or any currency).
Fan 2 and the Globes benefited heavily from these tips...

I am not actually familiar with all brands of iem. I was searching this forum for new updates and reviews and thats how i ended with ordering 10th. I dont really trust graph, graph may not reflect what i like. This forum has many users who know their stuffs

My canon is more of V, the vocal is slight recessed, and i have no problem with, i dont like vocal right in my face i enjoy instruments more.

Get the new modular cable from 7hz, the one that comes with timeless ae. Your cable would snap before the modular part would disconnect

This one ?

i'm getting one, I know how it sounds like.
They're really good...

10th arrived and now burning in! First impressions are as positive as everyone else.

Penon gave me the Penon Orbit cable with it. Mixed feelings here as I prefer a darker overall signature and the silver plated Orbit is definitely bright. But it really is a beautiful cable with a great tonality, and brings out the soundstage like nothing else I’ve tried.

Wow, the 10th really is something! Great bass, vocals, extension and tonality. For me the cable rolling stopped on the Vocal, which gives the 10th a wonderful full and rich tonality. Absolutely addictive sound, even while only partly burned in.

I had previously used the Vocal on the EST50 to a similar effect, but the result is even more full and musical on the 10th. Pairing the Orbit (gift from Penon) with the EST50 changed the sound profile to an elegant U, with deep rumble and articulate vocals & highs, and no bloat at all. A very different sound to what I had before, but every bit as engaging.

It's a testament to how well Penon/ISN tune their IEMs that you can get drastically different but still very musical results from changing cable, source & tips.

Hi!
I see that you have the Penon 10th. It´s an iem that caught my attention, but i have small ears and because of that I have to be careful with iem selection.
I mainly listen to iem's on the go, so a big iem is uncomfortable to use, keeps falling and sometimes it hearts.
How big is the Penon 10th? Bigger than Dunu Sa6? Bigger that Campfire Andromeda?
Thanks.

Oh Wow, i love Penon Vocal with EST50, and i listened with it mainly.
Yesterday i tried Hakugei Wisteria Fairy (SPC) but i still prefer Vocal on EST50, i've more cables to try but since i love Vocal on it i'm not somotivate to do cable rolling.
Lazy mood on
