    The discovery thread!

    Metal is something I don’t listen to but there’s one or two tracks I like… on the Symphony they sounded so alive and majestic I almost wondered if I would begin to like the genre haha. Side note: the D-fi also played the track very well too.

    The discovery thread!

    Haha I ordered the Conch twice from the official Ali store and the first one Ali told me to get a refund because of shipping delays so I did. The next one also got shipping delays and I messaged the company And no response. I got the order refunded. (Shipping said stuff like “processing...

    Surprisingly, they still sell the ZS6 on Amazon… I’m assuming the newer version? Mine is the old green version I bought years ago.

    The discovery thread!

    Thanks for saving me from being continually tempted by the ST7 haha. I have these zs10s and they ARE quite amazing, although still not as much bass as the good ol' ZS6, although probably a bit more detailed.

    The discovery thread!

    The replacement arrived today.... as with the first box, the earbuds were knocked out of the foam holders, and sure enough, one earbud has hairline cracks in the faceplate, and both have sticky residue around the faceplate... getting really annoyed now as these were supposed to be gifts!!!! I...

    I was not nerdy enough back then to notice what nozzle they had lol. My mom uses them now… they almost make me want to try the new Merga to see how far they’ve come with dual dynamics (I’ve not heard the famous Castors either but I suspect the bassy one would be a huge improvement to the ZS1)

    Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread

    I first bought the forgotten bullet-style KZ RX back in 2016 and was so astonished that I sold my Bose and Klipsch earbuds. Then I bought the ZS1 and was floored! They are TO THIS DAY one of the most comfortable KZ designs ever. Can't believe they abandoned that shell style. They have loads of...

    I got some of these years ago and they really do hold up well and have a very good zipper. And they’re rather firm unlike the newer KZ cases which helps protect the earbuds better.

    Sorry but I like the treble… ever since j heard the ZS6, I realized I wasn’t actually a bass head haha but preferred a large amount of treble.

    I’m sure the Hydro sounds good but I’m not spending that kind of money for such a plain shell design. I got the AS24 because it has that nice diamond pattern….

    The discovery thread!

    Just got the Conch in today and was floored by the sound quality, not even burnt in. It has those exciting highs that will likely spell the end of the D-fi in my collection, as good as it is.

    The discovery thread!

    Don’t tempt me lol. I was avoiding the Delci in my single DD quest because I think they look a bit boring but if I keep hearing how good they sound… nope. Stop it Joe. You already have lots of earbuds that sound AMAZING. Hahah

    The discovery thread!

    Dang, In my D-fi review, I said it’s clearly better than the Tangzu Wan’er but I’m listening to it on my lunch break at work and I must say it’s still pretty dang good. Like I’m really enjoying them! THATS saying something about how much better the IEMs are getting compared to the 2010s when I...

    The discovery thread!

    I have the D-fi, and have the ZVX and Polaris both coming! Considering that I like the D-do better than the Wan’er that most people here seem to love, I have high hopes for the other single DDs I have coming, including the Conch

    Review by 'jbfps116' on item 'KZ D-Fi with 4 tuning switch 1x10mm DD'

    I got the non-tunable version for very cheap on Aliexpress, and it did NOT come with the extra fancy tips that some of the other reviews showed. I felt the generic KZ silicone tips did not get a very tight seal, so I put some Spinfit W1s on these, and they are perfect for the D-fi! I ran them...

    The discovery thread!

    lol I’m also tempted by the ST7 with the fancy white and gold look… almost the same price as the Conch on Ali… but I gotta slow my roll. Besides AliExpress has been failing miserably unless I’m getting fake tracking info to cover for extended shipping times hahaha.

    The discovery thread!

    BAD discovery today: the Tangzu Xuan Nv just came in and they were intended on being a gift for a friend of mine. But I could not resist opening them up to see if the sound quality was good enough for a gift. Imagine my horror when I saw that the left bud was cracking and peeling! At risk of...

    The discovery thread!

    So I got the AS24 and the ZS10 PRO 2, and then the Airpods PRO 2 for my upcoming flight, and thought I was done. Tried and loved them, and keeping them. But nope, not done!! Because of this thread, [the ol' shifting the blame game HAHA] I then proceeded to order the D-fi, ZVX, and TRN Conch to...

    Lightning to 3.5mm dongle upgrades?

    I have this nice Charge Worx dongle I got for my iPhone quite a few years ago. It’s a champ and works flawlessly and lets me charge my phone as well while listening to music. It seems a bit more powerful than the standard Apple dongle and sounds a bit better, maybe. Best of all it has audio...

    Thanks for the answers… I’m bringing them over in a trip to China soon to give to my friends.

    The discovery thread!

    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.

    The discovery thread!

    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...

    The discovery thread!

    So far most of my IEM comparisons have been using this trusty Charge Worx Lightning to 3.5mm cable… super well-built and sounds great, maybe even a little more power and better sound than the regular Apple dongle. And they have audio controls that work perfectly!! Sadly they are discontinued so...

    TRN impressions thread

    There’s the best place to buy from TRN? I’ve tried the supposedly official store on AliExpress but the tracking shows my packages keep getting rejected at sorting and sent back to the warehouse. Getting refunds!

    Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread

    I’m pretty sure the as24 can sound very neutral depending on your switch setting… in the opposite pricing spectrum I feel that the EDX PRO X are pretty reference tuned…
