/iemg/ — In-Ear Monitors General

>Any news on the T3 brahs?

Yeah its a Dynamic Driver / Balanced Armature Hybrid ... i seriously was not expecting that.

It will be good. I doubt it will be giant killer. That is a very basic driver configuration. Is all the innovation in the tuning ? we shall see.

Don't get the Moondrop Crescents.
They're great when they work, but every so often one or both of the speakers goes super quiet.

You got an old batch, it's wiring problem.

How do I tell the difference between the batches?

just that, faulty solder.

seems like, new cable too, and slightly different tuning

Hmm, mine looks exactly like the one from that page, with the black cable - even though the store on aliexpress had the pink spiral one.
Also I had no idea about how to differentiate the left and right sides based on the groove, so that was useful.

Thanks for the link.

no wonder, most people here modding their crescent to have mmcx.

bought t2 from ali
>44days shipping
hope i dont die waiting

why did you buy a t2 now when the t3 is coming out in less than a week?

i didn tknow iem general existed
my ie80s fell out of my pocket in the street and got ran over before i could find them
i want to replace them but im not sure what i should get, i don't really want to spend the money on ie80Ss, whats the best iem for around $200-250?

wait (maybe) another week for a mystery product
eh, these will my first attempt at in ear so i want something known with good reviews

help lads
i enjoyed the ie80s because theyre bassy, should i just get a used pair?

kanas or kanas pro.
not a meme and well tuned.

thanks lad, what are they like

Forgot to mention, earbuds don't matter, these are just for listening to while studying outside of home or at break on work

*microphone

I'm an idiot

also im reading that the kansas has more bass than the kansas pro, which would be better for someone like me who enjoyed the ie80s, really considering buying these

Should i get the TRN 8 core cable or the KZ 8 core cable?

i bought se425s

would any of u elitist retards like to comment on my se425s
i didnt want to get ie80s again because i want something different and something i dont have to replace the cable on every 2 weeks

practically anything will sound good compared to the bloated bassy mess that is the IE80S

are you talking about the ie80 or new ie80S
i had shure se215s and i think they sounded like ass so hopefully the 425s will sound good

Are there any good bluetooth MMCX cables that support AAC?

Cancle the order. The NICEHCK DT500’s are better for a lot less money.

i bought them used for 140 dollars

Yeah, those like hd600 but without the grain and real sub bass.

i have hd600s ill compare the two
are you saying they have real sub bass or they dont

tin audio t2

>studying
You need isolation, get yourself an etymotic or se215 clones.

Hd600 didn't has sub bass.
While kanas and pro has.

How common is this setup for an IEM?
I have the Klipsch XR8i's and the bass is tremendous. Too bad they're not super comfortable.

Just ordered Sony XBA N3. God, I hate myself for being an audiophool. This better be good.

I wonder how well n3 vs kanas or blessing.

Can't hear them because of superior isolation of my CIEMs

The nicehcks are 100$

cx300, vsonic gr99, brainwavz s0

just want a solid cable that won't break near the jack, a straight connector, microphone, call button and volume controls

I need a bluetooth headset solely for PTT.
Plan to get whatever I can find with MMCX connectors, later replace the earphones with some better options (tinaudio probably) and also get a jack cable to use it as regular headphones.
Any recommendations on particular units? I need the headset next week, so chinkshit unfortunately doesnt make the cut, I need something commonly available in EU.

Is it possible to make IEMs basically open?

There's the BGVP DMG on sale but I would wait for the tin audio T3 reviews if I were you.
Hey fellow frog.
At this price the yinyoo BK2 is King. Could be perfect for too.

The TRN bt3 bt10 and bt20 all support it. The first two have a high noise floor though.
I have tried the TRN cable and it's God tier. The silver and gold one looks like shit though.

So common, that most meme started with it.
>neutral
Crescent.
>podcasts
Crescent is tuned to have very fine vocal clarity and zero mid bass bleed and subdued 8khz area for less sibilance on raw recording and podcasts. Unlike t2, absolutely has midbass bleed and potential for sibilance.
>Open
Find some vented iem, something like hd381 has that very big vent that's basically open.
Ry4s or ty hi-z 150 ohm.
Yep trn has better durability and those premolded earhook is nice

>this kills the /iemg/ hypetrain

i only just receently watched a few of clavinetjunkie's videos and there was just something so wrong with that sound demo just with my Tin T2 on my mac air it the source track sounded horrible, seems like he was using silicon tips too.

Is he a trained musician ? in my experience they cant into audio engineering just like i cant play an instrument

skroutz.gr/c/435/hands-free-bluetooth/f/428320/diplo.html?keyphrase=wireless&price_min=&price_max=60

Which ones?

At that price, get yourself an etymotic for ruler flat, or xba n3 for harman flat.
Don't get the dm6, it's audibly boomy according to any diffuse field target or anny harman target.

Again, most people failed to notice that kind of sound demo is relative.
You can't asses a single sound demo by its tonal balance, you need to compare it to other sound demos with same test system and evaluate the difference.

Well i can partially blame clavinetjunkie itself for not stating the relative nature of the sound demo. Unlike rtings when they verbosely stating that is RELATIVE, and sonicsensepro audio where is the actual consumer is professional oriented (instinctively they know the relative nature).

Any IEMs that fit the Bose Stayhear Plus tips?, or the Stayhear tips for the QC20?

Prefered wireless with a string, no neckband designs though.

> if its not exactly harman its bad
really ?

my point was the raw music track he used for the sound demo sounded bad. It had way too much exciter.

>why do you think he is autistic ? he just seems like a musician to me
youtu.be/jyRwhSXgSr0
Dude posted a video more than half hour long filled with extreme butthurt over a few nagging jewtube comments. No social skill, understanding of the internet (who the fuck even cares about a few angry youtube comments? what kind of even half popular youtube video doesn't have the inane comments?), angst that clearly grew over time with each of his videos, a hobby that started with collecting bluetooth speakers (!!!!!!!). He's not a musician and has never posted music, he's a hobbyist toying around with a few instruments. In fact he remarked a couple times that it wasn't easy to get decent music that would not hit copyright stuff to use as consistent samples for his demonstrations of hardware.
I think only autists wouldn't notice the autism that's permeating his very being.

Bruh the problem isn't that he fails to State the relative nature of the sound demo it's that he actually believes it isn't and that it can serve as a substitute for an actual review.
Sound demos are incredibly niche and unreliable on top of being subjective. A sound demo is less helpful than the shittiest of graphs.
He's probably a guitar player as he cums all over the etymotics with it's high-mid bump.

Anyone else thinks that his video about the other reviewers is just there to gain attention by baiting Z's retarded fans?

Any good bluetooth IEMs? I know wired ones are better but I already have the T2 and want to use it when I'm outdoors

Good question.
Harman targets only boost the bass below ~200hz, so no perceived boom.
>Sound demos are incredibly niche and unreliable on top of being subjective
It is, but with right equipment, those are reliable enough and can be used to experience how the actual headphones sound pretty close.

>Anyone else thinks that his video about the other reviewers is just there to gain attention by baiting Z's retarded fans?
Don't forget for "tyll for iem" which is certainly not even close.

>he actually believes it isn't
Well, not my problem and im not watching his "reviews".
Atleast you guys who watch him is informed.

You know you can just get the cheap bluetooth mmcx cable that Zishan user shills and throw your T2s on them right

Dude you can make your T2 wireless for $9 i rec this BT module all the time. They make a great combo.

the sound demos are flawed its a house of mirrors every which way you think about it but i find listening to where to where the bass sits in regards to rest of the spectrum gives me a pretty good idea if i wanna buy it or not. I know The harman tuned models he has demoed are not for me.

Im gonna sound demo the T2 while listening to my T2 .... BRB

What's the catch for the 9$ price

Are the senfer dt6 good? The graph on Audiobudget looks promising.

>Mostly gonna use for calling
>$200

Nothing except build and lack of fancy codecs.

>What's the catch for the 9$ price

An extra dollar or two for shipping. Thats it. Probably cost a dollar to manufacture. Everybody wins. Its the best soundinrg BT cable i have yet tried. No hiss. Goes really Loud. Lasts 3 hours + at full volume.

>Nothing except build and lack of fancy codecs.
Could you explain by what you mean of a lack of fancy codecs?

I still find it hilarious Apple does not have those fancy codecs on their ridiculously expensive flagship phones. Brutal standoff with Qualcomm... Absolutely Brutal

Heh No there are practically no active NC iems full stop. There are some that are better than others at Noise isolation. They are earplugs after all. Read up how quiet some ear dildos like Etymotics are. They are so quiet they can actually be dangerous in certain environments.

Just looking for decent over-ears to use occasionally.

So... Do decent over ear wireless earbuds not exist?

Is $200 not enough?
I guess if it's really good quality I'll go for $400

No it's too much.

Oh, I figured it wasn't enough since I recently bought Jabras for $180.
