@bithalver most of these are borrow stuffs that will go back to their respective owner within a week or so :dt880smile:
Envy is not owning them but have a chance to try them out. I live in Hungary, I have no chance šŸ˜„ .

If you find a good offer for VARIATIONS (Hifigo usually sells them for 390 with discounts) Yeah, VARIATIONS is the way to go for me. It's a safe bet.

But you could find so many options on that range, I would you recommend to start trying different profiles on the budget segment, until your find your favourite.

For example, get the wargner and cca cra, try them, and find what you like the most.

I love profiles like the FA7S for example, but they are quite rare.

PD. mandame un mensaje en espaƱol y charlamos. El otro dia vi un video tuyo dandole a probar auris a noveles del hifi
Thanks for rec! I like Variations. Great iem. Technicalliy better than my FH9. Very good iem.

Went down due to fever for almost the whole weekend. Woke up today and tried Slash's new blues album 'Orgy of the damned'. It's really good and foot tapping sound with HiseniorAudio Mega5EST. I am thinking of putting it on tour, but I don't wanna miss them now.
Happy Sunday everyone.

This happens to me when I order from AliExpress sometimes, except they get bottlenecked in a distribution centre in Northern Europe before getting sent to North America. They'll sometimes sit at that centre for weeks. It's irritating. If they don't get stuck there they make it in like 1-2 weeks but if it ends up in that distribution centre it's gonna be at least a month.
I tried importing the tracking number from my troublesome shipment of TRN Conch and one other item into the Shop app and it claims they're getting delivered in Italy!! Aliexpress says they're sitting at the processing center after having been returned to the warehouse and sent back. irritating! Who knows when or if they will ever get there. So far, only like 1/6 orders actually worked for me on Aliexpress. Cannot fathom how you all order expensive equipment on there but I guess they do have a decent refund policy...

@jbfps116 Is your address special? Maybe streetname etc. too long?
I read somewhere that this might be a problem.
It's a totally normal address, not a PO box... now my street is a "circle" which is CIR in USPS lingo... maybe the shippers don't know that? shouldn't make a problem though... My street name length including spaces and assuming CIR is 14 characters.

I remember missing out on a Linsoul sale. I think B2 was around $150?

But this Hifi Cat, is that a legit store? Anyone shopped from them before?
Havenā€™t used them, reviews look to be a mixed bag. Their prices donā€™t seem to be heavily discounted or anything, the B2 was sold at the price or even less from my understanding, like you said. Iā€™d probably buy something cheap from them first as a test run.

Oh, interesting little 'discovery'. Decided to overlay the Cadenza 4 and DaVinci's graphs with the T5S I like quite a bit.

I would hazard a guess the taller 8kHz peak, the dropoff after 10kHz, and a thin 15kHz peak are strategically placed there so a single DD does not have to struggle with high treble while still sounding natural.
