Speaking of fâed up isht, whatâs up with the bowdlerized version of B. o. O. with Daisley & Kerslakeâs contributions wiped. One does not simply wipe Daisley & Kerslakeâs contributions, Sharon.

Yeah SharonâŚsheâs a piece of workâŚdragged John into some stupid reality show he probably didnât want to do at firstâŚbut settled in. Throwing the ham was funny but probably staged. If it wasnât for her though John would probably be panhandling

Haha - got it 
Michael Bruce got a new mod on these. Check his channel on YT. I havenât had the time and guts to try it yet. Maybe this weekend.
Shady company though, strange way of using Kickstarter IMHO.

This set passed throught the hands of a good chunk of the hobby and not much talk about that (Kickstarter) or the whale money

Iâm honestly a bit disappointed by that tbh. It left a bad taste in my mouth and this needs to be talked about in reviews so that companies stop the BS
Thanks HBB for keeping these people honest as much as you can

I thought about that one, but then I thought waitâŚJupiter⌠AND I already have 2 great sets with 3DD each for less than 400 totalâŚthat pic sure makes it look pretty though.
Can ya give a hint when yours is gonna drop?

Lets talk about the latest trap set for reviewers intentional or not
I mentioned 2 weeks ago this description made no sense.
It is apparently a very large apex moduleâŚthat is a new angle of confusionâŚbut if you are a reviewerâŚbe carefull of mentioning attributes in your review that may lead to you having to edit delete or apologize.

Chris do you remember a product used in Car Audio , well i used them.
Dynaudio Variovent* it was a periotic 1 way breathable membrane that allows air pressure to escape at a set pressure to allow the woofers to extend to maximium excursions without the need of creating a third order acoustic vented chamber that looses all control at or below its tuning frequency.
You could stick a 10" in like 0.4â sq and mount this thing on the side of the box and the woofer would sound like it was a bigger driver in a bigger box .
The woofer with less pressure behind it at maximum or close to it would not spike the power requirements and keep the amps in control with way more headroom!
It really worked
As the Voice Coil gets close to bottoming out on the backplate the vent would release just enough pressure and would keep control over the woofer lowering distortion while moving more air at the same time. Brilliant!
The way Joseph from LETSHOUER explained it to me as he understood it, and me speculating, - was the Passive radiator is sort of doing this and dumping the excess pressure into a seperate chamber. I guess the thought process is progressing along theese lines.
They are not using the PR as was initially intended but trying to do what the VarioVent was doing with a slighy wonky method.
When I had a chance to listen to the S15 the bass really stood out with its output but I thought it was kinda monotone one note at different levels of output. But the control was much better and it sounded more like DD less like a planar.
Still missing the proper decay and timbre but better than the average typical way too fast planar bass.
Thinking back with the DZ4 first attempt , I think was effort #1 but totally messed it up and decided to release it anyway.
S15 attempt #2 Much better improvement but still not there.
I have to applaud LETSHOUER for trying something different and hope they keeps going. Maybe someone should send them the link for the VarioVent it was perfected 30 years ago just need to shrink it down.
TDM
Now I could be completely wrong and its just a terribly stupid implementation like the DZ4 LOL
or
Maybe the S15 will go down as a IEM ahead of its time like a square wheel or a pioneer.
Interesting how others heard it.

I commented on your recent video that I donât really think driver count matters much. Driver quality is 1000Ă more important. The Sennheiser IE600 1DD sounds better than nearly every hybrid Iâve heard, and rivals some of the best earphones ever made (at least to my ear).
So when I see â$500 for 1DDâ I just think âIt must be a really good dynamic driverâ. If itâs not, then thatâs a different story, but Sennheiser have proven that it is possible.
