Can't wait to hear their sound! ...Though I can't say I'm a fan of their non-deep insertion design. ...you know for isolation and what not.- MMansell

IEM Recommendations under 140€ (~$150)
If you wanted flat signature with a little warmth, right now the best in 100$ range is 1more triple driver which has a 4.9 rating in amazon. they're great but their Isolation and no-over-the-ear style is a set back I usually use an amp to boost the bass and they respond well to equalizing but...- MMansell

Review by 'MMansell' on item 'FiiO L16 Professional 3.5mm to 3.5mm Short Cable'
I originally wanted to buy a Fiio L8 cable but since they didn't have it I went for this at 10$ and I think it has kind of improved the music! Being an electrical engineering student I can assure you that it's very possible to change the frequency response by choosing different wires and...- MMansell

Chapter 5 - Getting It Wrong
Thank you both Brooko and castleofargh. Very informative. I'll absolutely watch that video later. I actually tried the volume matching device mentioned in your thread 2, but I in a very newbie way ... I installed an app on my smartphone for sound pressure level measurement that sensed... -
Chapter 5 - Getting It Wrong
What I meant by cost wasn't about the reviewed product but about the testing gear for headphone response. And by "aural experimentation" I meant critical listening . Sorry about the vagueness BTW! I mean... there are lot's of people who believe: " yes, measurements are cool and all... but the... -
Reply to review by 'mmansell' on item '1MORE Triple Driver In-Ear Headphones with In-line Microphone and Remote'
@canali I used to own GR07 Classics until the left driver died for no reason. As far as I can recall... I think GR07s had slightly more bass resolution but their treble was less refined than that of the triple Driver's. GR07 Vsonics were more comfortable and had better soundstage width too...- MMansell

Chapter 5 - Getting It Wrong
Great stuff. I liked the part about acknowledging your misjudgments. I think reputation can create stubbornness, unfortunately. I have a fundamental question about one's perception: Would you say that a review that is pure aural experimentation, is imperfect or say, unprofessional? I say... -
Review by 'MMansell' on item '1MORE Triple Driver In-Ear Headphones with In-line Microphone and Remote'
Quick Review I bought them for casual listening and mixing and mastering purpose (cause I heard sound engineers had approved them). I wanted a balanced to warm* sound. I think the sound is very balanced but maybe a little too clinical and not as warm as I wanted. those who...- MMansell

Reply to review by 'mmansell' on item 'FLC Technology FLC 8S'
Nicely done! good job! "even most people with (very) small ears should be able to get a really good fit and comfort with the FLC8s." a couple of questions: 1. are the nozzles on the small side or are they about average? 2. does the 90 degree nozzle make them less secure in ear...- MMansell

good point! I updated my ATH-M50 review just now -
Chapter 4 - Anatomy of a Review – The Content (part 2)
Yes, then we agree on this that, reviewers writing about sub 100$ sets -and maybe from less famous brands- need to warn people about possible longevity issues. I have doubts about the 100$ factor though, more like 200$....as an example, my ATH-M50's ear pad leathers broke and became somewhat... -
Chapter 4 - Anatomy of a Review – The Content (part 2)
Well, I agree. you can't trust them... as you can't trust TV news or celebrity gossips and so many other things that might have some hidden connection to corporations and what not. however, if we read many reviews and not just one, we might find out which adjective is the common way of... -

Chapter 4 - Anatomy of a Review – The Content (part 2)
Fantastically nice job Brooko! I've always wanted to point this out ,so here it goes: why do some reviewers who only spend a few weeks reviewing the equipment write with so much confidence regarding the "build quality" ?! how will they know if it's gonna last 3 month or not, if they only had it... -

Help with Fiio x3 and x1 choosing.
Hi, I currently own a fiio e07k. fiio x3 is 100$ more expensive than fiio x1 in my country. I've read here and there that x3's amp section is better than that of x1 ( and also supports 300 ohm headphone vs x1's 100 ohm output). I listen to every genre of music except Rap and Hip-Hop but mostly...- MMansell
