Oh wow yes, until this comment I had no idea what a reasonable price the JQ set were. Jeepers that’s certainly competitive!

It is pretty significant
$240 for the JQ 4Upro vs $350 for the Xenns Mangird Tea2

Yet another addition to the Hybrid Wars
Can’t wait for the showdown though I’m this close to pull the trigger on Canon :ok_hand: (another tempting used listing)

UM Mext though, very fun and “physical” set. Made me look around when a thump comes.
Not what I wanted but gave me new insights and brings me closer to the Holy Grail. Not sure if I want to get UP now.
Thanks for the rec :love_you_gesture:

Is that good? Charts and graphs make my eyes roll up, and I become catatonic. I have the Vortex, though, and it’s my favorite IEM now.

Still waiting for shipment confirmation. This set seems to be a success for Penon. I wonder how many employees Penon has? Besides Dunu this became my favorite IEM manufacturer.

Depends what you’re looking for? Based on preferences a graph can give you an idea if it is “good” for the FR emphases you tend toward. It’s quite balanced, unfortunately with a sub bass roll-off right at the end.

Could you graph de 120 switch combination ? (Bass & Mids up) ?

Yup, i can graph the other 2 profiles. Treble is always about same but bass lifts up a bit. I’ll do it this weekend :v:

So after a bunch of tip rolling and some slight EQ 400Hz and down loving the sound out of these! I can’t stop listening to daft punk with this set. It’s just the perfect pairing imo.

Might be my new favorite over my Serials…

Seems there’s a huge delay / queue for it and people are still waiting for their units.

Looks promising tho.

Yeah new orders will take at least 3 months and that’s for Malaysian orders. There’s already the first batch of receipients though at Head-Fi

hawaiibadboy did you start to listen to BGVP ArtMagic ED12?

Nope , not yet :+1:

Hawaiibadboy, do you have an excel sheet tier list for headphones? Also if you had to rec one iem to someone who absolutely loves the he6se which one would you recommend?

No. I had it mixed in w/ IEM but took down. I will rank again
1st 2 sets that come to mind RE: the Hifiman are the Thieaudio Oracle and Senn IE600

What happened to the EJ07 on your ranking list? No longer S-?
