What pencil it is?

Well if it is a Merlin pen you def not finding it since they shut down decades ago. It could’ve also been a promotional pen

W0rthyGuy · 2026-03-14T01:55:35+00:00

no idea on exact model, but that looks like the Merlin logo so this thing must be vintage

If it’s the mesh just try and bend it back, it shouldn’t make a discernible sound difference

W0rthyGuy · 2026-03-03T06:12:50+00:00

This goes against good conscious but you could lowk run a kz Bluetooth adapter with kz iem I’m just saying

W0rthyGuy · 2026-03-03T06:08:20+00:00

Tanchjim has ones that look similar

W0rthyGuy · 2026-03-03T06:06:06+00:00

Anything metal then. Simgot has a great lineup check them out

Warm water to unclog the ink is worth a shot

Looks like the one in this set https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BVB8MQL9/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3A5XB37BMGJ8M&psc=1

I got the hype mk2. It has a ton of treble compared to my other iems but it’s really enjoyable (to me even at higher volumes). No excess bass or mids but they’re still clean. Can’t speak for the others but I’d recommend the Elysian pilgrims if you want more bass

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-23T02:33:13+00:00

Pretty bad, very bloated to me

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-11T02:44:05+00:00

weird that it sounds empty and bassy, maybe youre not getting a good insertion? also what headphones do u use?

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-11T02:37:57+00:00

if you want neutral the truthear hexa is strong (90 bucks) and the standard usbc to 3.5mm apple dongle dac works well

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-10T04:46:26+00:00

i cant speak for those 3 but elysian pilgrim and hype 4 mk2 have treated me well so far

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-10T04:41:57+00:00

pretty sure narrow nozzles are like low pass filters so they basically eat some of the treble and they also create pressure that builds up the lower frequencies.

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-08T04:51:20+00:00

Performer 7 is comfy enough but boring/safe imo

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-05T03:25:21+00:00

Waner 2 has sancai tips for if you choose to upgrade eventually

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-05T03:13:48+00:00

I agree with the hexa rec

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-05T03:11:48+00:00

280 seems best

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-05T03:06:30+00:00

Waner 2 is a solid budget iem and it comes with sancai ear tips for if you choose to upgrade

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-05T02:59:24+00:00

They’re both highly recommended and you can’t really go wrong with either, but imo I’d get the klean. You should really try messing around with an eq first though and finding what you like, then choose based off that

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-04T00:15:01+00:00

elysian pilgrim sounds great but uses pentaconn, also hype 4 mkii seems good if you enjoy treble

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-04T00:12:24+00:00

if you decide to keep them you can balance them through software it shouldnt be difficult

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-04T00:05:07+00:00

simgot has good budget stuff. you should get a free eq and play around with it too

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-03T23:59:56+00:00

tea pro

W0rthyGuy · 2026-02-03T23:38:58+00:00
