Congrats on both purchases! I haven't heard the copper SP3000T but hybrid/tube mode with high current on SP3000T SS is one of the most engaging sounds I've heard from any DAP so far.
Thanks man:L3000:Yes, probably the closest you can get to the N30LE classic tube sound. A bit less resolving but a bit more engaging. And I am definitely not complaining about the form factor of the 3KT.

Also where are the Fugaku gym pics?

This trend for tacky external/shell design on IEMs is the worst one in a long time.
I like this clean and sassy build haha but I can understand your point of view as well.

Hi, I see you have new acquisitions, what would you say about the Grand Maestro and the CP622B?

Yeah lots of gear passed along 😅

I think both are very different (although some claim both are for bass, I dont share that opinion).

To me CP622B is on another lvl when it comes to detail and imaging. The bass is nice, but to my ears not in the ballpark of the GM.

The GM does not have the details of the 622B, but better bass texture, decay and depth.

Both quite chonkyw IEM’s, that can be awkward to the ears. Which is why I dont keep them.

Both are great, but to my ears are different. And to my preference the CP622B wins (even though Im a bass lover).

The details and imaging put a smile on my face every time.

Any Canjams planned on east coast US or Western Europe in the coming months? I’m trying to arrange to attend my first….

Me and my friend were talking last night about how horrible the fit is on the GM, and se. It’s actually incredible how horrible that thing is to put in your ear. YMMV but for the love of God never again. 💀😅

If you're in Florida, there's one in Dallas next weekend.

As we hop to the latest flavor of the month, we tend to stop talking about great IEMs from even 6 months ago! The CP622B is a KILLER IEM. Fun, engaging and detailed. I regret selling it.
