    The MagicOne's single BA driver can be driven to physical clipping. In other words, the MagicOne is not an IEM to listen to at really high volume levels. What instead makes the MagicOne really special as a very relaxing or chill pill IEM is that the MagicOne has a relaxed BA sound for the bass...

    Help me find the perfect sub-$150 dynamic driver IEM

    Try the Kefine Delci. I bought it on a whim. The Delci is really impressing me with its strong yet tight bass and with the very nice details throughout.

    Azla Sedna Earfit Tips

    I am disappointed that Azla has discontinued the SednaEarFitLight eartips. These eartips work extremely well for me on several of my IEMs. I guess I will have to stock up on some more spares.

    Do you still have the EW200? If so, then you can install 300 density mesh filters from the Simgot EW200 tuning kit in order to tame the bright upper midrange and treble. The self-adhesive mesh filters are installed directly on top of the metal dust filters inside the EW200 nozzles. With this...

    Nice review and photos! The P5 is my favorite IEM. It sounds much more natural than the Quintet.

    There are five of these HFD4/5-S relays on the Tube 02 Pro circuit board. They are the cream colored rectangular blocks in the photo.

    The HSD4/5-S signal relay (it is the white colored block shaped thing on the circuit board just below the RCA output jacks) probably has burned out. The purpose of this relay is to prevent a popping sound on the RCA output when you turn on the Tube 02 Pro. The /5 in the part name indicates that...

    FX-AUDIO Tube-02 Pro

    The heater filaments for the left and right tubes are wired in series. If the filament in either tube burns out, then there will be no audio output for the RCA outputs or for the headphone output jacks. Check and confirm that there is not any audio output for the headphone output jacks. If there...

    Not really. At least MacEq is a 10 band EQ which has EQ frequency adjustments which probably do have some overlap such that you can achieve a bit of a somewhat parametric EQ by tweaking a primary slider and the adjacent sliders. The bass and lower midrange should be easy to tweak using MacEQ...

    I generally agree with everything which you said in your review. I find that the MagicOne adds a somewhat ethereal quality to music since the overall sound signature is inviting and engaging yet relaxing at the same time. I also agree that the Hana 2021 or V2 is an IEM which did glide under the...

    The outside diameter of the MagicOne nozzles is 5.65mm, not 0.4cm or 4mm.

    Best IEM tips?

    This a nice and well organized collection of eartips. My collection is half this size. That is a really slick idea of printing small paper squares with the tip information which you have placed in each of the organizer boxes. What do you think of the ePro horn eartips? Were they useful for any...
