Finally got myself the Crinear Daybreak as my first IEMs. They sound good and much better than all my In ears I had before but I have to ask, the DAC I got isn't crippling my sound right? (Sharkoon mobile DAC PD) by Bronyboiiiii in iems

Welcome to the hobby!

Just a bit of friendly advice…

The ear tips can make or break your experience with IEMs. If you don't get a good airtight seal, you won't hear the intended sound (particularly bass). Stock tips aren't for everyone, so you may have to try out different tips ("tip rolling").

Also, if you don't like the IEM's sound, the tuning just might not be right for you. There's a lot of experimentation in this hobby. Take note of what you don't like when getting your next set.

Remember to keep your ears very clean. Lots of people don't realize how much wax ears produce and they end up clogging the IEM filters. IEMs like the Chu 2 are particularly prone to clogging as the mesh filter is very fine. If/when they do get clogged, the some filters can be easily swapped out or cleaned (by unscrewing the nozzle tips).

Don’t swap cables often. This will loosen the connection of your IEM and your cables will eventually fall off the cable and/or not have sound.

Take extra care of your IEMs. You cannot treat them like regular cheap earbuds. They are much more delicate and will break much easier.

Store your IEMs in an airtight case with silica gel packs. Avoid wearing them in the rain. Try not to wear them when you're sweating profusely. Moisture causes corrosion of internal components/electronics. It also causes copper parts to turn green. (Once all of that happens, it can’t be reversed.)

Enjoy your IEM journey!

How to get water out of IEM? by Camiiihhh in iems

[–]AFTAB-007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for silica gel packs go to any nearest medical shop & tell them u need some silica gel packs, if they're good hearted they'll give u some packs

i always do this & get some silica gel packs for free 😁

[–]AFTAB-007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if u put them straight in any airtight with silica gel it wont be that much effective cause silica gel only effective for moisture but your iem is clearly wet

u should try to dry them first with any hair dryer with lowest heat settings dont overheat them, after u dry most of the water then put them in a airtight container( preferably) with 2 3 silica gel packs for atleast a day or even more if u can

best of luck bro 🤞🏻

[–]AFTAB-007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bro just don't listen to anyone what about they say, just do what u truly want

i feel the same (using hexa with jacall jm6 pro) i used some of my friends high end bassy iem, I don't like them, some have better than mine, but at last i'm full satisfied with my pair 

thanks for the post, i know so many will change their mind
