This the kind of ad head-fi is going for...?

Need to understand how this affects the sound, thanks

I think ads are targeted based on search history and other information...
That would be funny, but that's the first time I see one of these. I only saw audio related ads on Head-Fi so far. Also I am not into hentai at all.

Pretty sure the moondrop cover art would trigger the algorithm to suggest that. As you know the Moondrop thread is one of the most active on here.

Also it’s not hentai. It’s a gacha game with racy images , just like Moondrop box work.

Is the isolation bad because of the kinetic bass?
Yes. the dynamic driver emits sound through a large opening on the shell and thus achieves both air conduction (like a normal iem) and bone conduction. so there's leakage of sound from the iem to out. I haven't noticed outside sound leaking in. That part of the isolation is fine (at least to my ears).

Do you think the bone conduction is worth it?
When implemented nicely, it definitely is. and is not a gimmick. FIR's kinetic bass implementation and Unique Melody Multiverse Mentor are the ones that I've heard. They're definitely worth it and sounds excellent.

For audio, Unique Melody, and Canpur with the BCD are worth it. Makes you hear and feel the music at the same time. Hard to describe BCD. Once you have you will understand.

Who cares if it's raining outside...
The 1266 is a completely different headphone out of the Feliks Envy amp and MSB Premier DAC. Immaculate....

Quick little survey if anybody can answer, thank you 😊.. Which one do y’all prefer and why? IE900 or Singularity ?
Just demo the iem mate. If you can not demo read reviews. Do you want a new bass head iem? You appear on a bass kick lately. Singularity over ie900. I am going to say buy duality over singularity. Funds permitting.

I have a BGVP Phantom and its BCD w/some minor eq definetly along with the feel adds really nicely tuned bass detail levels that sound good at all volumes.

This photo displays a good example of Alternative iems .. the row on the top are mine and the row on the bottom are my buddy’s .. So basically, we have a rule that we can’t own the same Iem so we get an alternative version of each other’s iems In specific criteria, such as our top 3 being a bass set a mids set and treble set .. as you can see, they are lined up with each other other accordingly
What is below the Fir Audio?
