Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread
This! Just look up on that thread how to trigger Aux Mode (or High Impedance if you must) in V30 and you'll be fine. If you are using an impedance adapter to trick HI mode be sure to understand the procedure and remove it from the chain after triggering HI and before start listening. The...- Adide

CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest
IEMatch is not an impedance adapter in the traditional sense (https://ifi-audio.com/faqs/the-iematch-is-not-an-impedance-adapter/) and thus in will not act as one. @boost3d - different impedance adapters will have various effects on different iems, there's no rule for it. You need to have the...- Adide

Chinese / Asian Brand Info Thread (On or Over Ear Headphones)
On my B8 I did the cup dampening mod using some cotton disks from the wife (it's described somewhere in the thread). This mod got bass into focus and reduced upper mids ringing (subjectivity, I don't have measuring gear). Also blocked back vents to reduce bass a bit (used some putty from the kid...- Adide

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
I am a LG V30 user and yes have been using them to trigger the HI mode. That's the load part. But an LG V30 user is also taught to remove de adapter after triggering the HI as not to mess with IEM response. That's the impedance calculation part.- Adide

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
I'm pretty sure that's not the way impedance adapter works else it won't ever alter the sound response (they do most of the time). Afaik it increases the load to the source - that' true! - but impedance matching wise it counts towards the source and not towards the phone/IEM. It is like having...- Adide

CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest
@NeonHD "Veiled mids" and "recessed treble with little detail" seems so different from what I hear, it's like describing a completely different iem really. Maybe your filters got clogged or something. Also you should check if dirt, some other debris or moist got into the driver chamber. On both...- Adide

LZ A6/A6 mini discussion and review thread
This is your personal opinion with probably a bad unit from what you've described in your posts so probably not fair of giving advice out of your experience which may be confused with frustration, no disrespect intended and I'm sorry for your bad luck. For me (and most as I've been reading)...- Adide

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
Hi David. In your case (which in way seems similar to mine) I'd recommend SS or S or M Spinfits for deep insertion IEMs. Spinfits are able to bend while preserving the inner shape of the tube and due to bending they will lock themselves in. For mediun or shallow insertion sets just try all...- Adide

My LZ A6 from 11.11 showed up today ($195 from EE Audio), pretty stoked with it at the moment. Sounds really really good with nice balance and incredible extension on both ends.

Or default cable. Terrible. Cavernous vocals and off timbre (that people often complain about but it's really just a cable fault). Must be some impedance play by the remote or something. Just change the cable to whatever you find lying around and it must be better. I use them with whirlwinds...- Adide

Chinese / Asian Brand IEM Info Thread
I meant at some point to try with no rear filters but eventually abandoned the idea. That's partly because I feel the red rear filter (the most permeable and thus the one which bring the most bass) softens the bass attack too much and to me it makes mid-bass loosing snappiness and sounding...- Adide
