call me crazy, but I own JH audio JH13's and the very expensive noble audio Kaiser10 custom fit iems. and wow, I am impressed by the zs10 pro. i initially only bought it for something to fly with because I didn't want to risk damaging my much more expensive iems. the clarity and openness is...

After I got a Kaiser Encore ciem last year, I told myself I would never visit this forum or the noble site ever again (to save my wallet). However, curiosity finally got the better of me and here we are, with a khan that could go CIEM. Please convince me not to buy it!

this is a demo from a year ago, but the full version got released a few months ago. I am totally in love with Rigel Theatre. Honestly I don't know what they're saying, but that makes it better because I can fantasize. Also I believe that the voice can be an instrument in itself.

Thank god the Khans do not have a custom option. Otherwise I'd be out another $2700 (estimated cost of custom). I'll just stick to my encores which sound fantastic. On another note, funny story: I got myself a balanced 8core pure silver cable a year ago when I got the encore. My...

I've had a c5 for a long time. Still going strong even today. It's powerful as hell compared to my older fiio E11. Also it's got the best damn bass-boost I've ever heard. I've never heard any hiss from it with my jh16 or kaiser encores, and the encores are really sensitive. If you're...

strange how your tastes change when you grow up. I started off with rap as my favourite, then techno/trance, then rock/metal became my fav while I was in the navy. Now as I get older, I'm really starting to love folk music, and especially the accordian *gasp* when done right. But no matter...

yeah, i went to their website and it was 'sold out'. I can't believe they don't sell digital downloads.

Just found this band, very obscure but damn I'm in love.

The encores sound so good with everything. But right now I'm especially enjoying some good modern folk music. It stirs up creativity so easily.

been a few days now and I just gotta say, the encores are the best damn sounding things I've ever heard out of all my ear toys. Worth the cash I'd say. I can confidently say I've hit endgame.

The siblance looses its edge after several dozens hours of use.

Huh, the slightly-too-sharp treble went away after 30 or so hours. I rather liked it. :(

yep too bad his company is relatively unknown. He makes the best sounding cables. I've had $700 cables before from other companies and they are of cheaper quality and didn't sound as good.

but it's not a custom, I can't ever go back to universals.

lol maybe my ears are just base insensitive.

well, I lift up 75hz and below to 13db in viperbass (Yes 13, pls don't judge me). Doesn't seem to affect the encores clarity. Viperbass is a part of vipereffects which is an android app, but it was specially built into the fiio x7v2's player. I find that normal EQ usually does funny things to...

I'm sure it does. But the clarity and resolution that the encores have over the jh16fp is a big enough step that I am really satisfied. The only thing that I wish could be better was if it had as much sub bass power as the jh16's. But that can be fixed through EQ.

Just got my custom encores, have them in right now. First impression: Holy cow, the resoution and clarity blows my jh16 fp out of the water. It's slightly brighter too, and the pianos sound so much better. Soundstage about the same, maybe slightly larger than the jh16's. Bass slam not...

Hey those are mine! I just got an email that they're ready to ship! can't wait. When I get'em I can finally update my profile pic.

I recently bought a fiio x7 v2 because I heard lots of good things about it. Also, that it has viper bass. Upon experimenting, I no longer need my headstage arrow amp for the bass boost. It definitely gives a huge bass thump, without the muddiness of the headstage arrow amp (on a jh16 fp...

Man just seeing those suddenly got me impatient. Mine got to the lab mid december so maybe 2 more weeks to go for me. the wait just got really bad! So far how do you like them compared with your other iems?

Even with all this complaining...believe it or not a lot of other companies take just as long or even longer, and their customer support is non-existent (Looking at you, JH Audio/sony/westone). Compared to those guys, Noble audio is a really great company. But I guess people will complain...

ah yea I figured that the build time only started when it gets to the lab in china. Otherwise that'd mean they only take 1 week to build in china lol. Doesn't really matter to me though, I've got other toys to play with currently like vr headsets. Also you can just email noble support like I...
