For $22 these are very impressive compared to some of the more expensive stuff i bought 3 years ago… It’s amazing how far and fast the Asian iem market is advancing.

Sometimes a nice cheap greasy cheese burger is what you really need to satisfy your hunger… Life isn’t always filet mignon.

I figured out my bass problems with the DQ6. If I fully insert the iem deep in my ear like I should be all the bass disappears. If I do a partial insertion then the bass response comes back. I don’t know if maybe the deep insertion is crushing the tip and killing the lower freqs? No idea lol.

It may be something to do with driver pressure if it changes that much but I’m not sure.

Try with a smaller tip… :wink:

Driver flex, most likely.

I have frequently the same issue. Wonder if it’s a coupling vs decoupling thing. Whatever the reasons why, we have the solution!

Could also just be your ear canals. With my left ear, I need to do either shallow fit or super-deep fit, but anywhere in the middle and I get lessened bass response. Dunno if both ears could have the same issue.

Could also be the tips for sure, in conjunction with your ear canals. Past a certain point, you lose the seal.

You are probably right. :ok_hand:

It happens in measure rigs. The tips “kink” and you lose low end.
Foams form fit so if it happens with foams forget the theory :sweat_smile:

Had the chance to hear these three as well, and I think HBBs thoughts on the Kato and OH1s are spot on.

The Bravery however…
That set is not Bass Light, far from it. Heck, it has one of the best Bass responses of any full-BA set out there. Clear, intimate midrange, and the treble is smooth while retaining some sparkle. Excellent for Hip-Hop and Electronic Music.

First time I completely disagree on a set I had the chance to listen to as well. I heard pretty much the exact opposite.
