The comparison between the Noir and the OG Pilgrim will be fascinating. I can't wait to see your take on it since you're the only one I know who will have both. Given how much time you've spent with the Pilgrim OG, your insights will be valuable. With so many impressive releases lately, the IEM...

Speaking of IEMs we're excited about, I'm particularly looking forward to the DUNU DaVinci. I listened to it at CanJam, and although I can't recall the specifics, I remember thinking it was perfect as is, with no need for adjustments or EQ. I can't wait for that one. Another IEM on my radar is...

The Symphonium Titan is an IEM you must experience if you get the opportunity. I don't own it, but I had the chance to listen to it, and it was truly exceptional.

The AFUL Explorer has arrived, and I've posted my review and comparisons here: https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/aful-explorer.27201/reviews Here's a brief overview: The earpieces are small and lightweight. Same ear tips as the MagicOne. The sound signature is slightly warm or neutral with...

You're very welcome. Thank you for confirming the QDC connectors. Yes, I've only used them with the included cable. While the cable isn't the highest quality, I really can't complain given the price. Unfortunately, I don't have any additional QDC cables at the moment.

Thank you for the info! :thumbsup:I've already placed an order for the Black and Orange colors in L and XL sizes. Let's see.

Thanks for sharing your impressions! I actually wasn't aware of the mic option, so thanks for bringing that to my attention. I'll update my post accordingly. The Lacquer tips sound interesting; I've never bought anything from Penon before, but I'm curious to try them out now. How do they compare...

Hello everyone These are my quick impressions of the TRN ST7. I stumbled upon the TRN ST7 in this very thread. Curiosity got the best of me, and I decided to give it a try. Priced affordably, this IEM offers a remarkable sound quality, especially when paired with a budget dongle like the FiiO...

I totally agree with you on the first point! It really depends on each person's sensitivity, anatomy, and maybe even their preferences. It isn't surprising that I also don't find the Variations shouty. So, my advice for anyone would be to try to listen to IEMs first "if" you can!

If my memory serves me right, there used to be a lively debate on head-fi about whether the Sennheiser HD650 had a veiled sound. Some people agreed, while others disagreed, making it a frequently discussed topic. At one point, a member even created an emoji for it, depicting a horse with HD650...

No problem, and welcome to the club! 😄 I am treble-sensitive but not sensitive to upper mids. It's great that you have other flagship IEMs for accurate comparisons. When you get them, ensure a deep insertion and achieve a good seal by experimenting with the different ear tips. Personally, I use...

Wow, under $100? That's amazing! I actually liked the name Performer 3. I love how AFUL always uses innovative tech in their IEMs. And it looks beautiful too!

Thank you for your support, I really appreciate it.

I'd be over the moon if I had the Elysian Annihilator like someone in this forum—cough @o0genesis0o cough lol!

Awesome that you gave it a listen! Everyone's got their own tastes. It's one of the things that makes this hobby fun!

I have the MEST MK III CF edition, and I'm not sure if there are differences between that and the regular version. Both the MEST MK III and the Glacier offer a great sense of surround sound and holography, but the presentation is different. I can definitely understand what people mean by the...

My experience matches yours in a couple of ways! First, the Glacier's insertion depth is deeper than most IEMs I use, which gives me a good seal and is important for the bass and treble. Also, I usually go for XL ear tips on both sides, but with the Glacier, I often find myself using large or...

Hey there, sorry for the delay in getting back to you; I didn't notice your message earlier. I have to say, the Glacier's bass has always sounded correct and just right to me from day one. I'm not sure if it has changed in any way; if it has, I probably wouldn't have noticed, since it's possible...

Hey there, sorry for the late reply; I didn't see your message earlier. I've been using the DUNU Glacier as my daily driver since I got it, and I'm loving it more and more every day. Whether the 's' and 'sh' sounds are emphasized can depend on personal sensitivity and preferences. But in my...
