This sounds rough. I donāt really notice mine when playing music, only during sweep trying to ācheck it outā due to discussion about imbalance going on.
Are hifi go and Linsoul good shops?
@Alfonso_Gallegos I have no idea but the big audio websites should be good
And gdi my ears are shot from swapping my timeless around on both ears. I know Iāve recently developed a hearing imbalance from simply snapping my finger in front of my nose and hearing 2 different sounds on each ear(and yes itās completely opposite of my timeless imbalance with left ear hearing treble poorly while right hears treble better) this is not how I want to hear/solve my channel imbalance
I am using Comply Foam T-400 medium tips. They fit tight on the timeless nozzle. Very comfortable to wear and they sound perfect.

Ok so back at home and using them now. Seems like right one is a tad louder ~11k Hz and above, take note itās my perception tho, not accurate measurement.
I just went through all of my tips, all crinkle, only right unit, only after any seal is formed. I made extra sure to mount every tip properly. Tried putting it into left ear canal, annoying sound still appearing when I make pretty much any movement at all.
Thanks a lot. Iāll try to get some Comply tips. Iām trying to find the best tips between comfort and soundā¦ and these iems are sensitive to tip rolling.
The Timeless is not perfect but for now I must admit that Iām quite impressed with the overall performance. Iāll do more testing to get a final veredict tho.
Hello everyone!
So my Moondrop Ariaās broke today (No clue what happened was listening to them suddenly the left bud stopped making sound). And Iām looking to get a more āHigher endā iem.
Iāve never heard a planar in my life so I was interested in the 7Hz, but I also saw some of the QC issues in this thread, so Iām weary.
Anyways, Iām really torn between buying these or the Sennheiser IE300. Very different categories of IEMS I know, but Iām just undecided on if I wanna invest in a 7hz which I may or may not like or get an IE300 which I know will probably sound good on my mostly doom metal & rock playlist. If youāve heard both, which one would you recommend?
According to @Rikudou_Goku , the P1 plus (Tin hifi) is better than the Timeless. Maybe worth a look?

I have reached the acceptance stage of my timeless imbalance grief. by combining brain burn in with mixed eartips I can reach a level of imbalance that is quite acceptable.
AET07 L that I know adds some harshness to the treble shoved real deep on the right and CP100 M that I know trims harshness on the left is one combo that works pretty well
clear cylinder thingy L on the right and AET08 L on the left also works really well
Also I got myself a JCALLY JC20(or as I call it in my head the Linsoul Euphrosyne+3 button mic on a giant discount) so it might just be the new cable but I have so many factors to test and eliminate that Iād probably break my mmcx connectors testing so ill just be happy and close this chapter of my life(hopefully)
Yes and he uses this EQ for the P1 Plus and by that ranking them quite high. Would be interesting to hear more feedback on P1 Plus EQāed vs. Timeless - as the P1 Plus seems like a solid contender at $169.
His EQ settings:
PEQ:
P1 Plus:
Low-shelf: 50hz, Q: 0.6, gain: 7.5dB
Low-shelf: 80hz, Q: 0.6, gain: 1.5dB
Low-shelf: 150hz, Q: 0.6, gain: 1dB
Low-shelf: 200hz, Q: 0.6, gain: 2dB
Peak: 2000hz, Q: 2.4, gain: 1.5dB
Peak: 3148hz, Q: 1.14, gain: 4.3dB
Peak: 6254, Q: 3.08, gain: 4,5dB
Peak: 10 000hz, Q: 5, gain: 2.5dB
Preamp: -12 dB
Have you tried EQing that imbalance? You can EQ channels individually to try to make them match.

I did but I have a preference against using eq where possible
- peace keeps getting uninstalled on my audio dongle driver whenever its unplugged and takes lots of troubleshooting to get back up
- I donāt have proper measuring equipment so I tried to match them by playing sine waves and volume matching them but it sounds weird after Iām done and tiny tweaks just makes it worse instead of better.
- I play rhythm games on occasion and eq adds a few ms of delay which throws my timing off very slightly so Iād rather not eq if a physical solution that doesnāt affect latency is possible
- This is going to be my do-everything phone and pc audio solution and its a hassle to eq every device that I own

This on Timeless

I found the biggest culprit of my imbalance. Its the 2k scoop/plateau that many reviews show in their FR curves. With my new cable letting the timeless fit better into my right ear my imbalance is just that plateau that can easily be balanced by managing insertion depth for the left.
Essentially gone but just sharing in case anyone else finds regular talking sounding off center and wants to try to eq it out. Try giving 2k a tiny bump up. alright I should really stop posting here so much now that Iām done with this issue

Got mine today. Shipping was very fast, Iām actually fairly shocked given my past shipping experiences with Linsoul.
Theyāre very good. Stock they have a lot of what I like, low end in particular is super impressive for a planar iem. My only other experience is the Tin P1 and no amount of EQ could give those a satisfying rumble. With a little EQ these things are beastly in that regard. Clear, fast, typical planar qualities are all here. Iām really happy with the fit too, I was a little worried about that but the way they shaped these is actually really clean. Did some tip rolling right out of the gate and the spinfit CP100 took the top spot very easily.
After some stock listening I got to work on EQ and they really didnāt need much for my preferences. I like bass and I like treble, they both got some relatively small bumps in a few different spots and now Iām perfectly content.
My daily driver is a planar headphone so these arenāt really doing anything that I donāt hear from those. BUT those are a 500$ open back and these are a 200$ iem and performance-wise theyāre very close.
I enjoy swapping between headphones and IEMs for their different deliveries, intimate vs big and open, so Iām happy that I have a great planar version of each in my collection.

What kind of eq u use ?
Monoprice amp/dac unit has a built in parametric EQ.
Alright hereās my simple re-glue job
(plz excuse my gf phone pics)
Fully apart
About to apply glue
So basically if you see picture two this is how it originally looked when it came apart, using the og glue residue as a guide I decided to simply put it back into this position and squeeze a little superglue on either side of the connector and some on the right hand side corner using the long thin tube it came with. The other side of the shell seems to click in place well and never came apart on itās own so I left it as is.
ezpz. good to be back in action

I just got mine.
Decent tuning out of the box but definitely bass emphasis as people said.
Left mmcx is much looser than right but there doesnāt appear to be any significant channel imbalance (have to run a sweep with other IEMās and headphones to make sure itās not my ears).
Super isolation and seal (yellow bore large tips).
