It would be interesting if you put copper mesh on the inside of the outer cover and solder leads on either end of the mesh. Might make for a larger antenna and still keep it internal.

That's what I was aiming for.

Soooo... Anyone wanna talk Trinity products?

I snapped off the pogo pins on my phantom airs, as the antenna was still breaking up. Next step will be soldering an actual antenna onto the IEM's (if I ever get around to it)

I still haven't gotten around to gluing my faceplate back on yet haha. And the white one I got also has dropouts between left and right, though nowhere near as bad as the gold pair that I still need to put back together. Maybe someday I'll get to that haha.

Uh-oh! I think that was my fault going off-subject after all the posts on the R1!
So which filters would you recommend on the Masters for electronic music to get the best bass and layering?

Thanks for that. We are obviously singing from the same hymn sheet! I find most DD/BA hybrid IEMs have a slightly harsh treble, it seems a malaise affecting affordable BA drivers. The only exceptions among the ones I have are the Zodic Audio ET2201 and the Urban Fun Beryllium hybrid. I think you would really enjoy the DC1, though. Perhaps we'll see a few more affordable IEMs with the ceramic units!

Just placed my order of DC1 on Aliexpress. Have to wait for 3 weeks to get it delivered.

Came home to a Trinity PM6 in the mail today. It was like seeing a ghost. Ordered June 2016.

I know you will like them and it will be good to hear your impressions when you get them.

Don't get too excited, it may be a PM2 lol.

Well one member on here cancelled his Hunter order and got refunded. He received a Hunter in the mail yesterday. Maybe I'll get a PM6 (or PM2) since I cancelled mine

Since they got a recent Hunter, I wonder if it only has a dynamic driver in it since TAE doesn't seem to have BAs anymore

 

[Lurk650]

He believes it has a BA since it sounds like it has a BA but he isn't 100% certain. I believe he tried to look through nozzle but couldn't see anything.

Yeah, you can't see anything relating to the driver setups looking through the nozzles as far as I can tell. Maybe you still have a shot at getting your PMx haha. Cuz their system's all sort of broken. I told them to just give me an Air in any color and they did. Then a couple weeks ago, I got another set of Airs, this time in the color I ordered. They still don't work right, but now I have 2 I guess?

That's right! They are the Emperor's new IEMs lol

Since I'm considering Artiste DC1 can anyone describe how they sound in a bit more detail? Especially compared to the ZS3 and/or Z5000.

I wrote a short description above in reply to bk123, where I compared the DC1 to the Trinity Audio Master. The DC1 is a very well-balanced IEM from deep sub-bass through a very transparent and open midrange to a clean peak-free treble which is very extended with lots of detail. The piezo driver really comes into its own here. I really can't think of any negatives, especially at the price. Clarity is excellent. Listen to something very pure, like "Arcadia" by Aqueous, a beautiful ambient album by Andrew Heath, and there's a perfect balance between silence and clean transients, deep sub-bass and soaring highs, with a wide open holographic soundstage. I would imagine they would scale well with more high-end sources. I do not own either of the IEMs you mentioned.

 

[AliveNoMore]

Is the emphasis on sub- or mid-bass? I love sub-bass but really dislike mid-bass. How close to a basshead level are they? I'm not a true basshead but I like my low-end extended with some really solid presence.
