That sounds fine I guess. Btw, which tips do you suggest to mitigate the driver flex- acap13

@KutuzovGambit Does the driver flex is bad though? I wouldnt like it if it as bad as CA Atlas. And, male vocals, dynamics and treble resolution, the 3DT is still ahead of the NFs?- acap13

Great review! I thought I read one of your impressions on NF Audio. I wonder how NM2+/ NA2+ fare against the 3DT?- acap13

Really great and thorough review. Appreciated. Perhaps, I may pause a bit on U12T and IER comparison since I have compared both of them and agree on most part. I think IER aces U12T in width but U12T, IIRC trounced IER’s tall and depth. Probably, the best aspect of U12T is its tall. But, I may...- acap13

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Have you tried iFi IeMatch/Earbuddy? They will introduce more resistance to the system. I assume SE846 is a very efficient and low impedance IEM and Mojo is quite overkill. Either Ifi’s will get rid of the hisses and allow you to use more volume to get the highest dynamic range possible with the...- acap13

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Just to add something about my findings, I have just recently moved on from USB connection with Mojo directly from my Iphone 6S using custom 20cm Lightning to Micro USB cable. They sound decent at best but mainly its quite neutral, flat soundstage and imaging and above average separation but...- acap13

If you have tried it with a decent source from coax connection, you will not sell this at all. It sounds much better than USB(from my laptop and Iphone) connection and probably Toslink. To my ears, it sounds much much more holographic and dynamics(start&stop) with coax input from my Ibasso DX200...- acap13

Great write up, man! As an owner of Oxygen and Tanchjim as a brand, I would love to see the love for Tanchjim products around because they deserve such tractions.- acap13

Tanchjim in ear monitors Impressions Thread
Sorry that I simply left out the fact that you were quoting other member’s statement. If you are asking me, I got more cable with the right polarity(even with ear hook) works with Oxygen than not. In my case, the stock cable supplied is to be blamed. Can’t speak for other members here but I...- acap13

Tanchjim in ear monitors Impressions Thread
You may try it yourself and see the difference especially with the stock cable. I have tried this since I acquired this set on April 2020 and I consistently obtain the same result. They are totally not the same sound at all. If they were, this set will long be gone from my collection. I’m sorry...- acap13

Tanchjim in ear monitors Impressions Thread
In my case, the stock cable polarity(+\-) is not fixed to the O2 2-pin connector. I had to reverse the cable making the angle a bit awkward to wear as the ear hook facing to the front but it sounded normal with proper imaging, bass impact is totally kicking which was not existent originally and...- acap13

Maybe EQ down the upper midrange(female vocal region) making that area more balance.- acap13

Tanchjim in ear monitors Impressions Thread
Very good comprehensive review. Damn it, what a waste of the beauty. Hope it’s not too late to share my experience with regarding the my early struggle with Oxygen. I used to think Oxygen sounded like cra* and it got very intolerably high upper mids which sounds quite unbalanced in relative to...- acap13
