I'm always rotating IEMs, so for now with no particular order Annihilator, Nanna and S8.

Really enjoying the honeymoon period with Red Halo, 2nd time owning these and glad I picked them up again.

Jewel still as awesome as they were on day 1.

Picking up a pair of Z1R finally, bucket list IEM and owe it to my sources to try them out!

Red Halo FS, Jewel, Z1R.

Long time no see my friend-- nice to see you check in. I hope all is and remains well. Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you for the warm welcome back and happy Thanksgiving wishes. Taking one day at a time and on long road to recovery but prognosis is good.

Hope you, your family and everyone here on HF are enjoying a healthy and festive holiday season!

Watercooler Top 3 Yankee Thanksgiving Weekend Poll

Question: What 3 IEMs most own your heart right now (today, not necessarily "all time")?

Fourté Blanc x2
Jewel x2
Softears Turii Ti x2
FIBAE7U
Viking Ragnar
Annihilator
Gaea
Dorado 2020
Kr5
OH5
radius HP-W300
Sennheiser IE 100 PRO
Xe6 x2
Mest MKii
VE7
Dark Sky
PHöNIX

FWIW I started counting votes with @audio123 and the top 3 of @ranfan's top 5.
I’d say the Sharona and PHoNIX of the ones I own, then Diva from my SG demos. It’s the only IEM I’d personally buy of all the ones I tried in SG, and I would’ve done it if it wasn’t for Lee’s dreadful wait times. The Jewel gets an honorable mention; if only its mids were a bit more inviting…

Blimey, this is depressing. Just realised I haven't reviewed any IEMs for a year and a half, and the most recently released IEMs I have heard are the EA Axiom (almost a year ago) which weren't that great. My life has become so boring...

third place has got so many contenders but thinking of absolute love, absolute products that I have tried and loved, these two come on the top.

CanJam SG awaits, my friend. You get yourself there and I’ll be waiting with a bowl of Hawker noodles and a glass of Teh Ice. :wink:

I included buds in one of the past polls and it got very few votes. I don't mind including them for those who want to list their favorite buds also.

How are you finding Kublai Khan? (clearly good by its ranking!)

As I keep saying, if only we Tw6 buds were in the same country! 🥲
