man u right a day later and my channel imbalance is practically gone. Its nuts just this morning I was trying to eq it away but now the eq is totally useless and it just sounds great. Also some sounds were weird at the start but those are also way down.
This iem is just weird but I’m happy I don’t have to return it for horrible imbalance

OK, so I will be giving this a try. Either through DUDO or Linsoul, I’m pretty sure that my curiosity has got the better of me.

So are you putting a filter in to catch the “crud” before it reaches the metal filter?
Or are you replacing the stock filter with it?
I think I just missed part of this convo, probably during the period when I was still trying to convince myself to spend $230 on an IEM ( Starfield was my expensive one before this, so that was jump ).
I had a weird almost sibilant peak around 8k, that vanished between yesterday morning and today. I EQ’d it out, and realized now it was too recessed, cleared the EQ now it is fine. note - mine got delivered two days ago.
I have never seen burn in make a difference in an IEM. Don’t get me wrong pads on headphones get better, both for seal and comfort, with some use, but that isn’t burn in.

Planar drivers usually need burn-in. The timeless is a gift that keeps on giving. My timeless is getting better and better the more I listen to it.

Brain burn-in is another real non-“burn-in” burn-in.
But I guess the talk about the timeless burn in will soften the initial disappointment for me

Made an order with Linsoul, non-express shipping. I’m still not 100% sure why I’m dong this as I’m still excited and charmed daily by the Aladdins, I have no wants – it’s just that time of year, where you might as well get things way lower than their usual vaule.

Ok so for 1111 I think I’ll settle on Timeless or LZ A7. Anyone can do this comparison?
Change of tips can affect the perceived high frequency peak. The difference of insertion depth changes the ear canal resonance frequency.

I have been cycling through the same 3 tips for the last two days.
I am trying to figure out which of the three I like the most on it.
Spinfit CP100+
Final Audio Series E
Acoustune AET08 ( these are the dark blue tips that come with it, the wider bore in white are the 07 ).
I am pretty torn on this, but I am not not hearing that peak on any of those 4, including the 07, which I put in for a while just to double check.

Foam tips create smooth treble when used on a Timeless.

Pulled the trigger in a Timeless using Linsoul gift card. 160 USD shipped was quite a nice deal. Hopefully everything goes well.

I had the same experience. One day I was listening and thinking “ok for sure I have my EQ on, it’s sounding smooth” and I checked and it wasn’t enabled.

One of my caps popped off today. Popped back on easily but I’m thinking these could have used a better glue job (i.e they barely used any). Will reglue myself if it happens again.

OK, that makes more sense, I didn’t realize they changed them.
I have the newer set of ear tips, but my filter is the paper is Gen 1, so that is interesting.
Thanks for explaining that.
