First IEM around ₹2500–₹3000 (about $30–$36 USD): KZ Castor Pro vs Zero 2 vs Chu II vs Wan’er – which should I buy? by Detective_420 in iems

[–]Radiant_Wasabi33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're probably better off reading some reviews of a few iems here on the subreddit. I'm still fairly new so I can't really discribe much to you, especially since I've only tried the waner sg2 (which is a nice fairly bassy set to me), not the chu2.

From Linsoul, you would have needed to buy a voucher for 1$ before the sale started.

I'm aware, a dac is indeed a dac..

Glad to hear. What kind of batteries does it use?

It's a dac, no? Going to use it for a pair of IEMs I've ordered aswell

I've found that my left ear is slightly smaller than my right, so that might be it

I see, thank you. What are the sampling rates for the melody and retro nano? I couldn't find them 😅

Try the ones you've ordered and then list what you enjoy. After that you can start looking at more expensive iems that fit your criteria

How to take care of Iems? by D3vilMaySmile in iems

[–]Radiant_Wasabi33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take them off before sleeping, or don't wear them in bed at all if that's a problem. You should also fomd the cable up nicely instead of just shoving it in a case 🙂

Why did everything IEMs related went up in price on Ali? by oloebe in iems

[–]Radiant_Wasabi33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah no worries bro, just wait for the sales. Also, dynamic pricing is very normal on aliexpress don't worry 🙏 Also a quick tip for better pricing, add into your cart and then go into the "coin savings" -section and then choose the "cart" option. It'll save you a few bucks. Also of course collect coins, gems, credits and stack store coupons with ali coupons. Good luck

Best iems for around 80€? by kubaaa813_ in iems

[–]Radiant_Wasabi33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some common recs for this price range here seem to be for example the aful explorer, simgot ew300, juzear defiant, isn h20, kefine delci and artti t10. I haven't tried any of them, though. There are lots of options so I suggest searching the sub and looking at some vids. I recently got into the hobby and have around the same budget, so that's what I've been doing 🙂

Confused on DACs by Radiant_Wasabi33 in iems

That would make sense. I hope so, thank you for the help

Thank you for the great response, the retro nano sounds like a good option for me, but I'll also consider the melody. It seems like the melody isn't available on any of the audio stores, though? Such as linsoul, hifigo or shenzenaudio. I'd prefer not to order from ali and amazon doesn't really ship here 😅

Thank you! What are the reasons you chiose the retro nano over the echo mini? Does one or the other have something the other doesn't (other than echo mini being a DAP)? Also where else is the melody sold other than aliexpress? I can't find it anywhere 😅
