---Introduction--- Here it is, another collaboration from Massdrop. Coming from the K7XXs, Fostex TR-X series and most recently the Plus, there is definitely a look of surprise on my face when I saw that the new Bolt, an IEM that was born from the collab between MD and HiFiMAN, costs only $10. $10 guys! imagine, what can we get for that amount nowadays? Probably a one-time lunch or a short uber trip. But no, here with the Bolt you get what MD claims to be a budget IEM that is made by audiophiles, for audiophiles. a bit of Razer reference, eh...

---Introduction--- I love Massdrop. Despite living in Canada and bombarded with heavy import taxes, I am still very interested in special collaborations made by Massdrop such as the TR-X00, HD6XX, HD58X, and K7XX to name a few. After years of collaborations, Massdrop had to create something of their own; a product that is tuned in-house, made in-house, and unique to its name. Thus, the Plus was born. Made and tuned by Massdrop from the ground-up, these IEMs hope to try and aim for that sweet, seemingly impossible spot in sound signature...

--Introduction-- I know this review is quite late, as this IEM has been around the market for at least 7 years now, dating back to late 2010-2011 when it made its debut. However, I also understand that audio is a hobby, and one way or another people might want to get their hands on this piece of kit even if it has reached its saturation point, so I thought I'll make a review about it, for good or for ill :) Now there are some points I would like to address before going more in-depth. First, my preference in sound signature lies more towards...

Intro The Noble Audio Sage was released back in late 2016, around November, and is meant to be a permanent replacement for the fan-favourite Noble Audio Savant. Despite being the successor of a popular line, initially the Sage was overshadowed by the Kaiser Encore, which was released around the same time. In the forums people seem to not discuss this IEM very much, so I will give it a shot for review since this IEM is, in my honest opinion, a hidden gem. In this review, this source was used: FiiO X3 II --> Sage Packaging / Unboxing The Noble...

Hello Head-Fi! This time I'm going to review my wonderful but short-lived Bowers and Wilkins P5 Wireless Headphones. A quick intro, this headphone is released around mid-2015 and is one of the newer pairs B&W in their headphone lineup. This headphone is based off of the P5 Series 2, which to me is a significant upgrade from the P5 Series 1 in terms of sound, but I'm going to go deeper later in this review, so legoo!!!   --BUILD & DESIGN-- This headphone, in my opinion, looks amazing. It easily was my most handsome pair especially compared to the...

Hello Head-Fi! This is my second review here and this time its about my personal favorite IEM, the Sony XBA-A3!   A quick intro, this IEM was released a while back, around the end of 2014 (~September) in Japan by Sony. This IEM was meant to be a replacement to the XBA-H3, the previous flagship for Sony's hybrid (H) lineup. It retails for US$499 when it first launched, but right now one could own this for around ~US$380 on Amazon. I would tell you right now that this IEM is worth every penny, and I will explain why!   --BUILD , DESIGN...

I know I am a bit late to the party, as these cans came out at around late 2015... I think. I got these last fall, and after using them for 5 months, I wanted to give this a review since there were none here on head fi. A quick disclaimer, the price posted here is a sale price, I got it for C$ 150 instead of the regular C$ 249.    --BUILD & DESIGN-- Lets kick off with the design. This headphone looks simple and very modern, with more curves and slopes than sharp edges. The styling of these headphones remind me of Scandinavian design, which focuses...
