I am ready to post my review of the TRN ST1. Could someone create a page for the review as there doesn't seem to be one at present. Thanks!
Hi guys,
I just bought the TRN V90 and it arrived today
I must say, these have bass, particularly sub-bass. They also have mid bass but it may not be as perceptible because of their peak in treble. They are V-shaped after all.
I am treble-sensitive and I consider the treble on these a little hot. It's not unbearable, but after long sessions it can be tiring. If you equalize it down 3 or 4 dB on the 10MHz range, it's wonderful. Although i haven't found any need to do that for more than once and i have listened to them all day. Actually, when i turned down the treble a little bit, i missed it not long after. That spike brings a sort of air to instruments such as cymbals. Without it, they sound a little thick.
These react really well on songs with bass - DnB, Dubstep, Electronic. Breakdown VIP from Noisestorm has a really nice rumble, I was stunned seriously, their bass is something.
They're not bad for other genres as well, Pop and Rock may sound a bit hollow because of the recessed mid range but i would say these make those genres sound laid back and relaxed. Some people may found these with little impact on those genres and call them "too v-shaped" but i think it's a consequence of having the superb bass so controlled and well behaved. Nevertheless they're still really fun and, for the price, a steal. This is a must have in my collection.
I wonder if the dynamic driver will change over the time with burn in.
Do you have other ear tips you can try? Often a different set of ear tips will noticeably change the sound.
Any condensation or driver fatigue (after using them for a while the drivers get tired and need a rest) problems?Just picked up the BA5. very happy with it. I also grabbed an 8 core 4.4mm from Tripowin to use with the ba5 and my fiio m11.
Coming from the campfire atlas, the different in sound vs the difference in price (ignoring the difference in driver tech)..... The BA5 is well worth the asking price.
Considering the dynamic tuning it has, it really reminds me of a much cheaper fiio FH7. Build and all. Witch is saying something, because i really think quite highly of the FH7.

Kinda necro but I can't find the older posts about this.Yeah, I didn’t realize the TRN 16 core cables were called T2. The T2 cables are good IMO.
Only some older 6 and 8 core TRN have unsoldered wires, the newest 16 core and 8 core black/gold (called tiger) are ok.A few months back there was controversy about Trn 16 core cables being bogus with a bunch of unsoldered cores. Are they verified to be legit now?
