    Got a surprisingly good quality cheap dongle that seems to reduce volume needed for playback compared to other dongles: link to post

    Lightning to 3.5mm dongle upgrades?

    Replying to myself in case anyone could use this information: I got this cheap dongle on Amazon that must have some kind of amp or volume enhancer because I need way less volume when listening to music than the Charge Worx shown above. This is great for the tangzu XuanNv because those use more...

    I'm slowly working on comparing the Polaris, ZVX, D-fi, Trio, Conch, and XuanNv in my IEM ranking list which is more like an "all-rounder" scoring system, honestly. I have not yet come up with a streamlined way to do more detailed comparisons like folks here do, and honestly I'm not sure my ears...

    I was very unimpressed with the EDX PRO X … not sure why because I loved the older EDX. but for single drivers from KZ, the ZVX, D-fi, and CCA Polaris I’m pretty sure all sound significantly better and on AliExpress, are the same price or cheaper!

    FINALLY got a clean example of these beauties in and got a second pair, one for gifting. Neither had the cracking or keeping of my first two sets, but the second pair was missing a Sancai eartip. Drat! Another email to Linsoul haha. The Tangzu quality control is really suffering now! Also, I...

    FINALLY got a good set in today... still was a bit of glue residue I had to wipe up, but no cracking or peeling lol. I'm going to listen to these more, but I feel they have a very mature, pleasing sound that could make them one I'll use for a long time to come.

    If only they looked good. That gunmetal shell is getting so boring to me… there’s no real excuse anymore with how many colorful IEMs are being released but I guess it cuts down on design time so they can pump them out faster lol.

    I've been testing the TRN Conch with the default setup: Reference nozzles and the clear tips... Well when I heard that the Atmospheric Immersion nozzles increased bass, I tried them with the black tips which are a bit more narrow bore, and BOOM, the bass sprouted to life! Still not basshead, but...

    My $5 ZVX off of Aki still sounds better than the EDX PRO X that I got from KZTWS website. so IDK if it's the same driver but it sounds a lot better.

    Correction: I meant to say it LOOKS like there’s only one driver inside …

    Got the Trio and Polaris in today... at first I thought I got a fake Trio because at first glance, there's only one driver inside... but looking at photos other people took, it seems like mine is the same, so where are the 3 drivers hiding haha

    Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread

    Wow, that thing about the ZVX has me interested, because I got it for a few bucks on Ali, but I ALSO got the D-fi for a similar price there too... Will be sound testing soon... they both sound good IMO but I like the ZVX shells a LOT more. so even if they ARE the drivers of EDX lite, I got a...

    I’m assuming you need a usb C to Lightning adaptor to use this on iPhones?

    I thought these looked sick but never heard of them… and some people said it ships without a cable?! I don’t have any cables of that style.

    Breaking in my KZ ZVX the fun way: rewatching The 100 on Netflix. Dang I love the matte silver shell!! So slick. The sound is great but I can tell it’s still single DD.

    Yes the TRN official ALi store… but I had bad luck trying to order the Conch from them. This time I’m going to ignore the tracking updates and hope it shows up.

    Ordered the Xuan Nv on Amazon. It was a nightmare and it was supposed to be a gift for a friend! First shipment included this peeling and flaking garbage: Returned. Replacement is better but one side still has hairline cracks all through the resin shell: I wrote Linsoul this time and asked...

    Just a heads up... I've been having a terrible problem trying to buy these on Amazon... first pair had peeling and cracking coating... replacement had hairline cracks all over one IEM... trying for a third time... Linsoul hasn't been super helpful and certainly won't sent me a free replacement...
