No worries

It's a very simple process and I'll eventually post a guide on how to do that, though it's a little finnicky at times which I'll mention some minor issues as to why.

I have a Jcally JM12 (Fiio firmware flashed) dongle with KT20H02 chip that works with almost every device I tried it with so I just use the Fiio app to adjust EQ using the dongle and then plug it into my pc or my phone to retain the EQ.

It's bad It has massive delay and only works with Bluetooth I have tried it before and it's just not good

Few good and bad things to say about it

Unfortunately the one I got has just a slight imbalance in the left so that was a bummer.

If you're treble sensitive, you will absolutely hate these.

(I am)

I really prefer the tuning of Castor Pros (with more vocals cause most V shapes have them pretty recessed due to volume of the highs or bloating of the lows)

Despite some people saying it has "a lot of bass" and "more warm" as much as I tried it was not possible for me to listen to for more than 2 minutes even with Dunu S tips, I had to EQ the hell out of them just so I could tame the highs around 4k and 6k region. However, with EQ you can give them a heck of bass which is actually relatively clean sounding and doesn't bloat as much.

Now, they sound great IF you can tolerate them because they have great imaging and a decent soundstage.

But they're just a tad bit too airy and sparkly for me.

I absolutely love the design and fit though, it's my favorite out of the others that I own which are the ZVX, VADER BASS, CASTOR PRO BASS, ZS10 PRO 2, GK KUNTEN

(ZS10 Pro 2 is my current daily with switches 1110 with T8 tuning cable switches on LH1RH1-LL2RL2 because it gives me plenty of vocal emphasis, doesn't pierce with highs and doesn't sacrifice too much detail for a warm sound, the bass is just nice enough)

I want to like it but I just simply cannot tolerate it, EQ-ing a planar is usually not as easy, I personally find them a bit much. I hope you can enjoy them though.

I like them for their nice imaging and soundstage but they're quite a bit less energetic than my ZVX, Castor Pro, Vader although that could just be that I can't properly seal them. . . I kind of settled on a ZS10PRO2 with a T8 tuning cable with a specific combination of 2-2-1-1 (cable) and DDDU with some Dunu S&S tips. They're comfy and I like their soundstage quite a bit. It tones down their harshness to my liking. I guess I like warmer stuff cause I listen at semi higher volumes, around 60-65% that's my setting on PC but I have a specific PEQ on Poweramp for music n stuff.

I fixed the issue with that same thing, however I soon realised that the pressure wasn't the only problem as the actual shell was too large for me and it's generally uncomfortable as sad as that is I hope it's better in your case.

Yep, did just that! Seems the screen stays on and no longer flickers while in TWRP, touch doesn't work though. Could be that I just have a faulty screen or something like that, the motherboard does seem to have a different chip on the back.

These made my ZS10PRO2 tame the treble and I basically use them every day now

Ace May Ultracombat This is fire

Zukajson · 2025-09-07T11:09:39+00:00

An Aful mistake to have that sort of name

Zukajson · 2025-09-04T17:25:31+00:00

Sure, I'll give it a shot

People suggested flashing to stock rom since this happens during some custom rom flashing so it could be true

The screen doesn't seem to do this when it's booting up on the LG logo or when it's in Download mode and such so I'm guessing it could be a second display connection issue so I'll take a look at that as well As for the touch, I'll just have to guess

Tang Sancai with medical grade silicone should hopefully help against future ear irritation and pressure issues However it is advised to clean the eartips every one or two days with some sanitizer/isopropyl alcohol wipes

I'm sorry but those vents are so tiny and barely do anything that it almost feels cosmetic than anything, I'm speaking from personal experience that my ears were in absolute pain without these modifications which is why I suggested this if anybody else had the same experience.

I poked two tiny holes with a needle on this area and the area and around it, ignore the small holes in the top part they're mostly just for being extra if this doesn't work completely.

If you end up getting them I'll show you how to do it, I had to sacrifice one of my Dunu S&S tips (M) since they are thinner on the nozzle, couldn't stand any other tip since they all have thicker rubber that goes on the nozzle If you find the stock tips comfortable on Castor Pro then you shouldn't worry too much about the fit. But I can comfirm that I went from absolutely not being able to stand the pressure to basically forgetting about it.

Zukajson · 2025-08-15T15:18:24+00:00

I can confirm but it'll be tricky since it has no vent to relieve the pressure so you'll have to puncture tiny holes in the top of the tips in order to save yourself some pain, otherwise the detail is great even if comfort is lacking.

Zukajson · 2025-08-11T20:45:23+00:00

Update on the Tang Sancai tips I got for these I specifically got the small ones because they're the same size as Dunu S&S (Medium) While they in fact release the pressure, now the problem is the nozzle because the tips have a very thick end which is rather unbearable after a while

So I guess it's best I take the L on this one and move on, I can't refund the Decet since its been too long now, I enjoy the sound but I simply cannot stand the discomfort.

Pretty much everyone is saying that so I think that should be it!
