    PLANAR IEMs fans thread-Impressions, suggestions, ranking list, techs

    IDK the tips I'm using now are the intermediate option: I've also got these Zero Audio BX700s and the tips I ended up using with those are silicone, even smaller inner diameter and smaller outer diameter, and I just like jam them right in my ear canals. The bass and the soundstage just appear...

    PLANAR IEMs fans thread-Impressions, suggestions, ranking list, techs

    Hi, yeah it was partly on your recommendation that I checked them out, I will persevere with the base tuning for now, so at worst I know what to try and fix. Using smallish bore (~5mm) silicone tips rn and having initially listened for a few hours the tuning sounds viable to me. Will try...

    PLANAR IEMs fans thread-Impressions, suggestions, ranking list, techs

    Cheers, I'm saying timbre is notably good though. As I said, never heard a planar before and while DDs can sound generally "organic" or "pleasing", and BAs can sound almost "pixellated" and uniform, it feels more like the timbre is dictated by the recording with these and there's more nuance...

    Intime SORA: Giant killer IEMs from Japan?

    I swear I have seen them on there in the last few weeks, although none currently.

    First listen to the Akoustyx S-6, and planars in general. What I'm noticing is how timbre is not uniform, and you can discern it's inflections within e.g. a note or between simoultaneous notes. That is the difference with what I've heard before. You wouldn't say musical or even "natural", but...

    Intime SORA: Giant killer IEMs from Japan?

    I mean the OG Sora is out of production, right? So you're buying used and e-earphone is a good place to look; also has all current Intime products, e.g. the Sora 2

    Comment by 'BX700' in item 'Kmerj KM01'

    Saw this on Aliexpress, wondered if it was an unbranded Penon Tail. Seemed like a bargain if so.

    They do use that terminology ("Octa DAC chip matrix") for the DX260's 8xCS43198 configuration.

    Intime SORA: Giant killer IEMs from Japan?

    Interesting. They were priced at JPY 36000 initially. Finish looks nice although the machining is a weird choice.

    Intime SORA: Giant killer IEMs from Japan?

    Thought I might be able to pick a pair of these up and report back, but missed out. Haven't seen them mentioned on here. Using a VST driver: maybe OEM from Intime, or their drivers in another shell? They incorporate nickel. Interesting. N+um e1000

    Review by 'BX700' on item 'Creative Aurvana Trio'

    Bought these used based on previous review, and have thereby got myself a bargain reference pair. Neutrally tuned and generally giving the feeling of detailed, clear, accurate reproduction of the music: hearing it as intended. Very tastefully tuned, although I can accept some unnatural colouring...

    Ah I was a latecomer to Club 69, only went a couple of times before the end of my raving career.

    Is it okay to wear the cable straight down with IEM's instead of behind the ears?

    Hi, I prefer cable down too. Someone posted on here that a particular over-ear model (UE900) could be worn cable down with left and right sides reversed, and I found it to be true: I can get as good a seal as over ear. Have since tried this with a second over-ear IEM, and it was viable. Can't...
