The 3DT might end up being my favorite all-purpose IEM. I’m actually back to listening to it in stock configuration (no filters). The filters tame the peaks nicely, and don’t really cost detail or imaging, but somehow they skew overall tonality a bit. I do like boosting the sub bass a little with EQ though. It balances well with the stock tuning.
Yes I did...I haven't had a chance to spend any real time with it yet so I'm holding off on impressions for the time being. I may try and track down a balanced cable first before I proceed.
Putting this out to this motley community. I’m flummoxed, have a possible answer, but want feedback....
3DT had a narrow upper register with Hiby R5 & Cayin N3pro. This, after ‘burn in’, both SE and balanced.
Picked up Shanling m6pro. 3DT sounds marvelous. No more treble congestion whatsoever. Listening 4.4 balanced.
Power to drive 3DT was my first idea. However, N3pro power specs are superior to m6pro, and R5 is basically equivalent.
How to account for this?
Could DACs alone be the answer? R5 uses ESS, I believe, and it is a budget dap. N3pro also uses AK but a few models older than m6pro. Recall, N3pro has nice tube options, too.
Is it fair to say that something in m6pro design/implementation makes for this, to me, startling improvement in sound?
And it’s not only 3DT sounds better, all my iems do. Thanks
