DUNU - Discussion/Impressions Master Thread
Yeah I don't buy any reviewer's hype and rankings, especially a collab. BUT, I have had the OG SA6 on my radar and this seems to be an upgrade to that. Even if it's not S-Tier I'd be interested. I just hate the hype + limited quantities of collabs.- Radec

DUNU - Discussion/Impressions Master Thread
On the same boat. Kinda wanna wait but isn't SA6 ultra being sold in limited quantities? I'd rather just get a non-collab version later tbh.- Radec

FiiO&JadeAudio Dynamic Driver IEMs Discussion & Impressions Thread
I received my FD5s a few days ago. I was ready to write these off as "decent sounding but not great treble" until I tried them w/ the narrow nozzles and Spinfit CP800 tips. I really wasn't a fan of the treble at all with the wide nozzles as it sounded splashy and somewhat harsh at times. Not...- Radec

FiiO FH1-1 Dynamic + 1 Balanced Armature dual drivers Hi-Res Audio certified
What do you mean by break in one of the connections? Couldn't get the earpiece to stay connected to the mmcx cable?- Radec

Massdrop PLUS Universal IEM
Listening to my pair now. I hate the cable but other than that I have zero complaints so far. Easy fit, easy seal and extremely pleasant sounding right out of the box.- Radec

LZ A5
Lower mids on the FLC felt hollow? That's disappointing. That's the problem I have with a lot of IEMs, mids are too recessed or too scooped out. Right now, the Brainwavz B400 are my top IEM but I would like something with a bit more sub-bass quantity. I also tried the new Fiio FH1 but I have...- Radec

LZ A5
I'm torn between the LZ A5 and the FLC 8s. I absolutely loved my LZ A4 but over time I did tend to dislike the mid-bass hump with the black back filter (or lack of bass with the blue back filter) and the somewhat uneven treble response with a lot of the nozzle filters.- Radec

FiiO FH1-1 Dynamic + 1 Balanced Armature dual drivers Hi-Res Audio certified
Well, the sound is great but my pair of FH1 are having QC issues. I cannot get the right earpiece to stay connected to the MMCX cable. Both the balanced and single ended cables will not stay attached to the right earpiece. Even a third party cable has issues. Left earpiece is fine, but the...- Radec

I like the mids. Vocals are not recessed. Recessed mids are a deal breaker for me and I have no problem with the mids on these. Soundstage isn't huge, details are fantastic though. Soundstage is probably equal to the F9.- Radec

Just came home to my pair of FH1s. Initial impressions are extremely positive. Warm, smooth sound with a very good fit. I can hear the boosted bass but it doesn't bloat or spill into the mids. I find these much more enjoyable than the F9s right out of the box.- Radec

FLC Technology FLC8 and FLC8s Impressions Thread
Sorry for the dumb question, but are the FLC 8s still the best buy for their price range? I know a lot of good IEMs have come out around this price in 2017.- Radec

Brainwavz Audio B400 4-Way Quad Driver 3D Printed IEM
My favorite A4 combo is the black back filter and grey nozzle. Black/black is great as well, but the uneven treble can be fatiguing over time. I find the B400 have much better resolution and detail, much smoother sound and a much better fit for my ears. The A4 can be a bit more exciting due to...- Radec
