šŸ”¶ 7HZ Timeless Planar

Thatā€™s reassuring to me as I donā€™t enjoy foamies.

Interesting, maybe try some comfortable eartips like Final Audio Type E

JVC Spiral Dot++, JVC Radius Deep Mount Earpieces ( Didnā€™t try them yet, but I have read lots of good reviews)

Received them today, took some pictures before trying them.
The box is nice for storage (not to carry)
My first impression is: ā€œyep, it is planarā€
Now I need to listen more to figure out what is the best use case for them. They really have a different sound signature than BA and Dynamic, while is is obvious to say, it is what set them aside from all the other IEM I have.
I like when something sounds different!
More in few days.

One early comment, these babies like power. I plugged them on my Desktop amp which is on +12db to feed Planar headphones. I was afraid it would be maximum hiss and too loud at minimum volume, butā€¦ no.
They really scale like planar headphones. I get way better slam/bass now that they are on the desktop amp.

To the surprise of no one :yum: Iā€™ve never heard of any planar that didnā€™t get more capable with more power

Also, whilst they play OK at low levels, like the P1 they improve with a bit of volume too.

God damn it, Iā€™m really enjoying my Mele here, and as a P1 fan this has me reaching to the buy button. That was a strong reviewā€¦

I have this gut feeling that I may stop at the Timeless. I have huge expectations for it now and I donā€™t believe I will be disappointed in the slightest.

Had a short comparison with the OH10 with Symbio tips.
10ā€™s are V shaped so they are a bit more airy up top and extend a bit more at the bottom but the 7hz have much better mids and the bass is much more textured and detailed.
Iā€™ll be keeping my 10s for mobile use where the V shape helps but the Timeless are a better iem all round IMHO.
Not sure if thatā€™s any help to you at all. Iā€™m not great at putting this stuff into words.

Shuffling as we speak but my god this is the best bass/subass Iā€™ve heard yet, details seem crystal clear, electronic music is nuts. Paired with Hidizs s9 pro single ended. High end isnā€™t harsh at all, can go loud, man this bass is seismic

Youā€™re getting me excited (even though mine still have yet to ship)!

Oh trust me you should be and damn that wait was terrible. Still waiting on my Kinera cable so I can go balanced to see if that makes a difference in power, plus I think it will go well aestheticallyā€¦

Planar are like black holes when it comes to power. Balanced in general sounds more pristine to me, more control, better extension both ways.
Iā€™m putting 1.25W into mine when I get them, should be interesting.

Thatā€™s what Iā€™m reading Iā€™ll have the BTR 5 to test and this Hidizs, bass and detail is the standout here, currently shuffling Yosi
