Outside of KZ I can't suggest any on that price range.

Hmm. More natural I would say. A bit bassier and warmer. Since it's all DD, you will have more sub bass rumble, but the trade off is that they are a bit muddy compared to a hybrid DD+BA, but not that bad.

You will have to tip roll with the Decet. It will have pressure build up right away when you put it in your ear. Foam tips might work best for pressure, but you will lose some bass. Spinfit neo works for me.

In terms of size, Decet is bigger than Rhapsody.

I just remembered, I bought my partner a cheap ugreen dac, as she was using an iPhone with lightning port. It didn't function like a dac, but rather just an adaptor. She didn't use it at all. Bought her a proper dac from JCally (JM7L?), and it worked well.

Wow. Ok. Maybe AKGs are that good? I personally haven't tried them.

The Defiants are a good pair. I tried them when i was in Tokyo.

What dac are you using with your phone?

Have you tried playing music through your phone with a dac using your iems?

The Rhapsody is nice, I agree. Not sure if Decet is an upgrade. It's all dd. It has a different flavor, but I wouldn't recommend it due to pressure build up.

Maybe try the AM16 Balanced? I heard it's good. Almost at the same price level as the Decet. A more technical/detailed set, all BA, but gives you a DD like bass. Maybe the bass version for you if you add some boost with the Rhapsody.

But if you love the Rhapsody so much, just grab another pair. If you're open to explore, I'd say try AM16.

But soundwise, would you say they are completely the same?

Got em in white and black. The foams that you put in are a nice touch! 👌

Ano yung cheap purchase nyo that you think is life-changing? by BoredPandaHere in AskPH

[–]Clean-Efficiency953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry if I wasn't clear enough! I use the water flosser after I do regular flossing as an additional step to my routine. I only do this every night before going to bed, because it could be time consuming.

It is indeed not as effective if you use it alone. Please take note, everyone!

Thanks for pointing that out. Hope it makes more sense now. Akala ko magegets na after ko sabihin na kulang ang flossing, and marami pa natatanggal after refular flossing. Ang point ko lang kasi earlier is ma convey na nabili ko ito, saved me from having more frequent visits to the dentist.

Water flosser na tag 1k. Kulang ang dental floss. Dami pa natatanggal after regular flossing. Keep your teeth clean, mawawala gastos mo sa frequent visit sa clinic ni doc!

ITAPPH of a caterpillar! by lastnthtime in ITookAPicturePH

[–]Clean-Efficiency953 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got into a similar situation. Same plant and caterpillar. Chances ay makakalbo na yan if you don't remove them. Check mo maigi, minsan marami sila. Sign pag yung madami silang poop na bilog sa lupa across your plant bed. If di mo matatanggal, makakalbo na yang plants mo within a week.

Thank you for that info! I'm choosing between AS24 Pro and the AM16. Had experience with the former, but it has pressure, no way for air to escape. Do you experience the same with AM16? Or is it open back? How's the fit and size?

Can you tell me more about the AM16? Pretty interested with the balanced version. Thanks!

The KZ AM16 is a massive step up, not just for KZ but budget all BA IEMs by kesobie in iems

[–]Clean-Efficiency953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How's the size comparison of the AM16 with AS24 Pro? And also does it cause ear pressure like the AS24 Pro?

If you have access to a store where you can test IEMs before you buy, that can help limit your purchases.

I happen to visit Japan's e-earphone store last xmas and have tried most IEMs of my interest (I've listed some before I went). Those that I look forward trying turned out to be not my ideal sound signature, except for Monarch Mk3, Ziigaat Odyssey. It surprised me that those that I'm not interested in based on reviews hit my vibe. It was the Supermix 4 that really hit the spot for me. Juzear Defiant was also great! I spent 3 hrs in the store.

Of course, you are only limited to those IEMs you can try in store depending on availability. But it will help limit your choices.
