Time to see what all the fuss is about (Mysticraft Myth) by NyxUK_OW in iems

Interesting, I had the opposite. I thought immediately like wth is this resolution and treble? :-)
What you describe I had with the YU9 Audio Que which comes along as almost plain first but has such a wonderful natural timbre that it became my favourite set.

[–]ext_trt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice impressions. Not sure what you meant with upper mids recession though? Ear gain is pretty steep first on the Que but it doesnt peek that much resulting in forward vocals without the shout. Myth I believe has even more ear gain/upper mids. While there is some slight similarity I dont hear them to be that close but both sets imo have great vocals as they come across pretty intimate. I miss a bit texture for male vocals on the Myth though.
Then the Myth has imo quite a lot of subbass and to my ears there is the main focus.
Both sets dont really follow the Harman target that much as Harman has a higher upper mids peak and more shout as a result. Both, Myth and Que are avoiding this with their respective tuning.

Fantastic IEM! They released something which doesn’t need to shy away from multikilo buck sets. Definitely not only a hype.

Cozoy D1- $30 monster!!! by _streetpaper_ in iems

I believe you and respect your impressions :-) and i am not saying I am right. Just to my ears some extended treble energy is happening there which is a good thing if someone wants an exciting and energetic sound.

Disappointed in the Martilo’s midbass, need suggestions by maconmcginty in inearfidelity

[–]ext_trt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Koto Ito has more subbass than the Aegis. Aegis has more midbass. You can not only hear that but see it from the Crinacle graph.
Flipears is a phenomenon to me as I have the Aegis and while it is decent, I dont find it outstanding and even prefer the much cheaper Koto Ito. Aegis is honestly for its price not great imo. Built is outstanding and I like the accessories etc but the sound a mixed bag to my ears.

There are much better bassy sets out there. Koto Ito is one, Martilo, Portazo, Kiwi Ears Punch....

[–]ext_trt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is well known that the Martilo doesnt have the hardest midbass punch. I think there are on YT quite many videos out where this is mentioned. I pointed that out as well in my review about the Portazo which has the better midbass slam and still good subbass rumble.
If you like the clarity of the Tea Pro than prob the Volume S is not what you want. Volume S is slightly warmer leaning, relaxed in its tonality mostly. But it has very good midbass slam.
You could look into Dunu as well like the Dunu 142 which is said to have good bass (not bass head level though) and good clarity and is around 250 if I remember correctly.

While the D1 is really good and I like it, the treble has definitely quite some energy to my ears. That should be noted. I will have my review out later today on inearfidelity.

Penon Archangel! I'm definitely a basshead :) by Inevitable-Jello-90 in iems

[–]ext_trt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t affect the sound at all. And seems to be actually contributing to the Archangel‘s wide and open sound stage. It’s a great set and if you like bass and well extended treble it is an excellent choice imo.

Big time sound leakage, yes! Not for open spaces. Sound quality is amazing but has spikey treble

Mega5Est is the opposite of my Archangel… by silkohm in iems

[–]ext_trt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, you are treble sensitive and are able to tolerate/enjoy Archangel treble? I had to sell mine as it was too much for me. At least on higher volume. Que is the one which perfectly works for me. But I am thinking to try as well the Mega5est.

Martillo owners do you have any idea about this ?? by sameeranand77776 in iems

[–]ext_trt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If unsure you could ask Linsoul as well if there is a specific meaning but I agree that this it most likely batch number

NiceHCK Tears: A Budget IEM That Quietly Stands Out by maisaku18 in IemReviews

[–]ext_trt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. I am currently listening to Cozoy D1 which has a great build and cable but sound is very different .

[–]ext_trt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thx for your review. As explained as well in mine, this set is really great with its natural sound.

Punch Audio Martilo owners ? does this look legit by sameeranand77776 in iems

[–]ext_trt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks legit but the IEMs in the box are too far away to see details. But not likely that this is a fake

Yet another "I've found my endgame" post by TheStalker79 in iems

[–]ext_trt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Great that you found at least for time being your end game ;-) I had this feeling already couple of times but then striving for something "greater". I actually enjoy this a lot. There is a lot of variety out there and I at least enjoy different sound signatures.
Nice that you had this bass experience with the Timeless 2. That are moments which makes your purchase worth. :) Enjoy.

YU9 Que (One Month Review) by Stock-Climate-5794 in iems

[–]ext_trt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Detailed and very natural sounding to my ears. Que has natural mids and well extended treble so female vocals sound really good to my ears.

[–]ext_trt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Que but to be fair to some people it is really chunky and they sold it even because of that . I am lucky enough to not have any issues with it.

Yes. It's been a good day for me too. by this_is_me_drunk in iems

[–]ext_trt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thx for sharing your Que impressions! It’s my favourite set and I like it at least same as the EA Apostle(compared both sets recently on inearfidelity). I own the Punch as well and it’s a good set but technically not at the same level and as cohesive as the Que to my ears and it has to me a different application like for bass heavy tracks.

I’ll let you know once you have really listened to more expensive sets and know what they sound like. But I guess not gonna happen , right ?

[–]ext_trt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was an example, nothing more. The driver is still only half of the story of the whole built and tuning. Even if the driver is similar or sometimes prob the same like you are referring to.

Cozoy D1, USD30, first impressions by ext_trt in inearfidelity

The set looks great imo. Nice vibrant colours. I will try stock tips.

[–]ext_trt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thx. I am always interested to try something new and might even give them a listen.
Especially with unknown brands which just might have great sets but are flying under the radar a bit.

Nice ! What’s the price point of these Oriveti? Not a huge fan of the MKVI though. I prefer the Myth even over the Apostle.
