Hi experts ; ]
Any of you have or had the Timeless and IKKO OH10 and can shortly compare them please?
lām looking at buying one of them and both seem to have a tuning l will like.
Thanks

imo if you can get the OH10ās under $150 (I got mine for $130) get them otherwise if you donāt feel like waiting for sales the timeless (timeless is on sale for cyber monday btw) Iāll do a quick a/b in a bit
Thanks so much!
I see the oh10 for 132. Timeless l see for 189.
I need to make a choice and hopefully the right one ; )
Intuition is telling me that an IEM with BA will never satisfy meā¦ but lm open to be corrected.
Topping A90 splitting SE to both with Tin blue foams on both, threw my playlist on shuffle and listened to a few songs
OH10 more impact, Timeless bit more clarity and separation
timeless has less impact but a bit wider soundstage
timeless has better clarity, OH10 sounds more natural
timeless somehow has the same impact but comes across cleaner
other things to note
accessories wise timeless is better (more tips + nicer cable) Edit: also a hunk of aluminum case (not exactly pocketable though)
timeless needs a bit more power (might not get the full experience off a phone)
OH10 is a bit heavier but the timeless is larger

Thank you for helping !!!
It sounds like a real toss up as they sayā¦
For the phone l have the Xduoo link so l assume l can power the Timelessā¦
Wellā¦ l have to decideā¦
Which one do YOU enjoy more?
Thank you
I think the OH10 is a bit better for rock than the timeless (drums sounding more natural)
Timeless is a really good all rounder if you listen to a lot of different music (if you game with IEMās timeless is most likely better for that as well)

I have the OH1O and the Timeless. The Timeless is a better overall for most wide range of music libraries and tamer highs. The OH10 is very good for EDM, hip hop etc due to the better lower end performance. But the OH10 has a caveat though, the highs at times can be fatiguing.
really? I found the OH10 to be more relaxed in the highs than the timeless

Planar highs sound so good. DD highs were so bad to listen to. BA or EST high frequencies were a bit better but not quite as pleasant as the planar highs like the timeless has.
Maybe itās just my ears. Particularly noticeable on Tom Morello rifs in RATM. 
My Timeless gets the rotation this week.

Just got my set today and the first listening was pretty good!
Bass, punch, separation, detail everthink there.
But the standard white/black tips were a bit to smal for me.
I tried spinfit cp 100 (wont work)
Final e (also wont work)
Standard white/white Medium (work really good 
)
They look really nice and they are extremly comfortable!!
And for 177ā¬ (on 11.11) i have nothing to complain

Congratulations!! Tip rolling is a mustā¦ Someone said āFit is kingā here once and its true. For my ears, medium Spiral Dots fit the best.

Iām experiencing this clicking/popping noise too. And whenever this happens while itās plugged in to my computer, my monitor shuts off for a split second. Itās as if thereās a short in the IEM but Iām not sure. Iāve tried switching cables but it still pops. Does anybody else have this problem?
Anyone finding their timeless sort of rattling or buzzing while producing sound? Mine produces a very fatiguing resonance sort of sound artifact that just ruins the experience which I sort of solved by stuffing some tissue into the eartip hole but it also dampens the speed and precision so Iām curious to know if itās a widespread issue.

My silver cable is finally there! The sound became even cleaner and faster now. My first impression is that the highs are softer and easier to listen to and the bass has gotten faster.
The cable is a 4 core silver litz cable.

All other IEMs now redundant.

The 7Hz Timeless is sensitive to cable changes. When using a pure silver cable you gonna get the smoothest treble ever. Honestly. I never heard any audio hardware with a treble smooth like that.

Iām a cable guy and Iāve tried a couple of cables on the Timelessā¦4 Core Gold and Silver plated Single crystal copperā¦ 8 core Pure Silver and I still prefer the og cableā¦not tried my Forza Pure silver copper Hybrid as itās 3.5mm which I donāt use much these days, but I do have a 4.4mm 4 Core 6N Single Crystal Copper and a 12 Core Pure Silver cable on the way to try so Iāll be rolling them
