Chu 2 and Kadenz. Picrel is me listening to both IEMs and my reaction to it.

>>106642985
I heard from some asian audiophile guy on youtube that Lan is actually some Chu 2 legacy shit or something

>>106643014
you were probably watching Gayzaudio. And yes, Chu 2 is the Lan for half the price. Unrelated, but what Moondrop says is true. The Chu series has so many imitators. Look at how many ultra budgets like the Bunny has tuning close to it.

Lan is the "premium" version of the first Chu, not Chu 2
the latter differs a lot in terms of bass, coomdrop deliberately added a hefty amount of it to turn the old bright-neutral tuning into V-shape, but that might be what the new Pop/Bass variant of the Lan 2 will aim for

>>106642769

Can you explain jack 3.5 extensions situation, why is it better to "use usb extension cord" instead? I'm not sure what "usb extension cord" is, but I would really prefer to use my onboard soundcard bc of my setup (headphones+subwoofer).

>>106643686
maybe if you dress me up like a Cacturne and praise my spikes

>>106643686
>onboard soundcard
feel free to use it if you have a single driver pos (1DD, 1Planar, maybe even 1BA), as there will be no crossover issues caused by high impedance
if you have a multi-driver pos (2DD, multi-BA, hybrids etc.) then go for a dedicated low-impedance dac/amp, in theory even apple dongle and cheapshit CX dongles should work just fine and sound at least just as good as your mobo sound without the usual pitfall, but you get even better sound and more features with desktop amps or more advanced dongles such as Fiio KA15 or Qudelix

Catching up on the new chifi releases, every pos tested on Azla Crystals.

>Xenns Top Pro
The fabled Storm killer. Brought my Storm along to A/B:

Compared to the Storm, the Top Pro is more vocal forward. The Xenns is more subbassy, yet it has weaker dynamics. It also lacks of a lot of the imaging and staging prowess of the Storm. The treble of the Xenns is also relatively edgier and not as smooth or as extended.

Comparing to other chifi sets, the Top Pro’s quite decent, like a cleaner sounding Mega5E, or a more resolving Hype 2. Good bright neutral tonality – but treble might just be too boosted because I’ve heard many irl complaints about it. 7/10.

>Thieaudio Monarch MK4
Non-bass mode: Bright and thin. Splashy and harsh.

Bass mode: Huge improvement. The boost in the low end helps immensely to balance the high end. Nice hard-hitting bass. Relatively warm-sounding, like a baby Alter Ego. Good bassy warm V. I don’t think it’s better than its Monarch predecessors, but it’s the warmest Thieaudio yet. 8/10.

>ZiiGaat x Hangout.Audio: Odyssey 2
Shouty V-shape pos. Toning down the bass (compared to the Odyssey 1) only made the pos even more shouty. And the bass is STILL muddy – it’s not as boosted as the Monarch MK4, yet the Odyssey 2 with its tamer bass sounds muddier and the Monarch. With brain burn-in, the Odyssey 2 is still listenable, but why pay more for a shittier tuning. 5/10.

>7Hz Elua Ultra
Bright, thin and harsh. Treble is very splashy and lacks extension. Top landfill candidate. The Salnotes Zero 1 is literally 10x better. 0/10.

>Truthear Hola
I’ve never actually heard the Hola until now. Firstly, good timbre and tonality: it’s warm neutral without venturing into mud territory. Treble is decent – it’s not the smoothest nor the most extended, but at least it’s not chinkshit harshness like the Elua Ultra. Resolution (or techs or whatever you wanna call it) isn’t the best, but its timbre and cohesiveness is standout. 10/10.

>>106646046

>>106645707
>1DD IEMs have terrible bass
>I know, I'll just damage control it by calling it nigger bass

>>106646172
1DDs have objectively the best bass.

The QKZ x HBB is the only iem that simultaneously had plenty of bass, toned down pinna gain, and linear air frequencies, to get something of that sort you need to shell out big bucks on hybrids, and other BA-ladden POS

>>106646212
You only need EQ.

>>106646226
Ofc you need to EQ them to achieve perfection, but the end result is better than on other iems

>I’ve never actually heard the Hola until now. Firstly, good timbre and tonality: it’s warm neutral without venturing into mud territory.

So this competes with kilobuck sets? Or it's 10/10 for costing ten bucks?

>>106647310
My rating is purely subjective personal enjoyment.
>So this competes with kilobuck sets? Or it's 10/10 for costing ten bucks?
It's a mix of both I guess. I'd also rated the Softears Twilight a 10/10, but I would never claim the Hola is "better" than the Twilight. However I would pick the Hola over other kilobuck 1DD like the Nightjar Singularity, Dita Mecha or Moondrop Illustrious because I simply don't enjoy those iems as much.

i personally dont see what transgender people have to do with In Ear Monitor headphones. not sure what im missing

Do you think bullet iems would be a lot more comfortable than wire over ear ones when laying down on bed, specially on the side? Regardless of that, which ones in about a 20-30 dollar range would be nice if I also want to play a few games on the side with them?

>>106647903
You see, /iemg/ has a very vibrant transgender community! EPZ is the IEM of choice for transgender folx here in /iemg/, and often they're also members of marginalized groups like MAPs (Minor Attracted Persons) or AAPs (Animal Attracted Persons). Transphobia or pedophobia is absolutely not tolerated here as this is a queer friendly space.

all you contrarian posers seem to confirm is that you're deaf.

Proof?

Galaxy buds pro 3 probably, you can trade in your old set for $30. My old OG galaxy buds still work fine which is crazy since a lot of my chink tws stopped working in half the time. You get what you pay for I guess.

>>106642900
i need an iem that doubles as hearing protection for shooting (and with good isolation), my budget's about 130€, im on the fence between getting a pair of used (like new) etymotics er3se or moondrop chu 2 with comply tips, because the er3se's come with a guaranteed level of hearing protection but the moondrops with comply tips would cost about half of the er3se's. might also get something in a similar price range to the chu's along with the tips.

>>106650965
>even if he named the pos you'd still be this retarded and antagonistic over it.
He probably was just shitposting anyway. muh science lmao 0 chance it was serious
>5128 exists
irrelevant... chinks barely use it for tuning plus they don't even have a proper harman target for it lol. which makes it even funnier.
>updated harman curves exist
them existing doesn't make a difference. yes every "harman tuned" pos was not actually harman tuned in a sense that it will not sound like what people heard during the research.
>you act like tuning a pos is an enigma or something
tuning is not but harman target is. If IEM manufacturers did a proper research of preference and targets maybe they'd be able to achieve something close to an actual harman target... but they did fuck all.

Whats a good high end IEM starting point for looking at something with pretty good bass (not too much) but overall good detail for listening to electronica, rock, and gaming with?

Customs would be appealing because I find fitting tips and generally getting a good fit with IEMs can be annoying for me.

There are so many damn choices of the things its hard to get a starting point. t. headphone boomer who is coming from HD6XX that wants more isolation but doesnt want wireless earbuds for home use due to latency.

I get that, but the Silica Gels help with storage which would probably be half the time the Chus would be if anon is paranoid about chipping. Also even without Silicas the paint isn't prone to chipping as others would make you believe. Troondrop actually did their QA job this time.

I suggest doing more research into V-shaped IEMs because you're VERY spoiled for choice here. Especially if you're shelling out 200+ bucks on a pos (that's half the price of a new steam deck btw) maybe visit some shops first and try their demo units so you don't get buyer's remorse and EQ'ing it to cope.

>>106651879
steam decks and IEMs are free as in beer

or free as in blowjobs if you'd prefer

>>106651984
it's not the black, it's just the writing combined with the plain faceplate if that makes sense, and something about the angular look of the faceplate i don't really jive with
the meta looks better because it's less angular and the chamfer pops out more
it's some very nitpicky stuff on my end, and i have very specific taste. something that does what the daybreak but better is the origin (embossing and lettering/font that fits the shell and faceplate size better)

Not sure about noise floor but it also doesn't go very loud (probably fine for IEMs), you're stuck without a USB DAC function and only 32GB OOTB.
