When did the EXT go up to $2960usd? I had it in my cart with the discount but thought I’d wait for more impressions.. damn..
Didn’t realize $2717 was just a pre-order price. Maybe shoot Andrew at Musicteck an email.

I can't afford the EXT at all right now but man every time I go to the product page, read the specs, look at the marketing etc. it gets more and more tempting lol. Can't wait to hear this one eventually.

Tip update: I found some damn good tips for my 3DT

20210818_151424.jpg



Left- L (13 mm) Right - R (12 mm)

4mm bore dia, sufficient bore length to provide secure fit, perfect flange dia, shape, and rigidity to provide perfect seal and yet comfortable fit. Using the L size as the M size loses the isolation occasionally, but that's entirely due to the obscene size of 3DT's shell.

Oh right, whether did these tips come from? Well, they came from a damn cheap iem: Blaupunkt EM01. Cost around $5.3 here. A German iem, so you can try to find them. The iems ain't bad either, by the way.

I've been working from home for the past 17 months now & I've been to the office maybe 7 or 8 times since then. On those rare times I've gone into work I have to say one of the most exciting things is the night before trying to decide which IEM I'll use for my subway commute.

I've seen a couple of folks posting about the N3pro and the Odin, while I don't have the EE, I can vouch that the Thummim is also a wonderful pairing. While it's taking almost everything the little DAP has in it, the tubes are absolute magic with the EST drivers and add some sweetmeat to the Thum’s midrange.

Variety is a beautiful thing :)

New toy arrived today. First impressions extremely positive

Looks nice, what is it?

Nice did you recently get an n3Pro? I'm quite loving it with the Honeydew at the moment:

This makes me interested & excited for that new Astell & Kern DAP with a tube (I need streaming).

I'm not excited for the cost though...lol

In other news life is starting to ramp up...back to work & school soon which means that this hobby will be much less a priority for me in the coming months. Looking forward to hearing the RS10 soon :)

Nice...I spent the day with Reborn yesterday, pure bliss :)
Ahhh Reborn. Yes, they are a pure joy to listen.

Knowing your taste for musical sounding Iems and bass impact, I’m pretty sure you may love these Xenns Up too.

I need a couple of days to be out from the honeymoon with these Xenns so I will be able to post an objective review

Nice I'll keep it on the radar :)

I do love this N3Pro:

My N3pro arrived yesterday, I like it so much, I'm trading for an N8. I've found that if you love a device, there's a very good chance I'll also enjoy the DAP/IEM/cable.
