Hello Friends,

Today I am excited to share my take on the THIEAUDIO Oracle MK3. It’s a beautiful IEM retailing for about $500/Rs 54,999. Packing 2 DD, 2BA, and 2EST hybrid setup, the Oracle MK3 comes in a very competitive price bracket. It performs well with a solid mid-bass response, clear vocals, and easily reproduced minute details. Everything checks out for me except the sound image which is pretty close and feels intimate for busy tracks. Check out my review to see how it fares against other IEMs in this highly competitive world.

Hope you guys enjoy the video.

Today I am sharing my review for an IEM that I personally adore dearly, and I have seen people sharing immense love about this IEM as well, the Kefine Klean.

I enjoyed watching your review of the Kefine Klean. I have enjoyed watching your other reviews because I enjoy seeing your enthusiasm and since you have tuning preferences which are very similar to my tuning preferences.

It appears that you and other reviewers that I trust have nice things to say about the Klean. I would love to audition the Klean, but I already have and love the Delci. Both are a bit bright in the 5 kHz region, but doesn’t really sound so since I am 60 a standard amount of old age hearing loss.

[gadgetgod]

I personally prefer Klean over the Delci series sir, might just be me.

[ToneDeafMonk]

I also prefer the Klean over Both Delci’s tonality wise it sounds better to my ears.

[gadgetgod]

True man, the Klean holds more value for 49$.

Hello friends,

You guys know how much I love single dynamic driver in-ear monitors, and then I got to try another banger budget single dynamic driver IEM, Today, I am sharing my review for the DUNU Kima 2. As a second-generation to the classic Kima series, DUNU Kima 2 packs a new DLC composite diaphragm dynamic driver unit that delivers a mesmerizing sound profile with natural tone and fun tuning.

I also love the stock cable, it is sleeved, and has interchangeable plug system as well. Well, DUNU Kima 2 impresses me with its sound, build, and package as well. Check out the video to see my full impressions. I have also shared a comparison with Clavelon Delta IEMs in the video, hope you guys enjoy.

Thank You for Your Support in 2024

Dear Friends,

As I reflect on 2024, I feel truly grateful for the unwavering support and encouragement you’ve shown me throughout my journey. This message is a bit delayed—about a week later than planned—but as they say, better late than never.

This year has been nothing short of a rollercoaster. From some of the happiest days of my life—like experiencing the incredible RAAL Immanis in Singapore during CanJam 2024—to moments when I barely touched my music player, it’s been an adventure filled with highs and lows. Through it all, your support has kept me motivated to explore, share, and create.

Today’s video is a deeply personal one. It reflects my journey as an audiophile in 2024, showcasing the gear and experiences that resonated with me the most. This isn’t about reviews or rankings; it’s about celebrating the things I loved, from budget-friendly IEMs priced at just $15 to ultra-high-end models exceeding $2,000. It’s been a blessing to dive into this world and share my passion with all of you.

Creating this video has been a labor of love. Selecting the perfect music to accompany it took hours of exploring tracks on Epidemic Sound, and every moment was worth it. I’ve poured my heart and soul into this project, and I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed creating it.

As we approach the new year, I want to thank each and every one of you for standing by me. Your encouragement has made all the difference, and I’m excited for the journey ahead in 2025. Let’s continue to celebrate our shared love for gadgets and music in the years to come.

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May 2025 bring joy, success, and plenty of exciting new experiences. Please feel free to connect with me in the comments section—I’d love to hear how you celebrated the New Year.

Peace, love, and gratitude,

Hello Friends,

Today,

I am going to share my review for the ROSESELSA Distant Mountain. Different from traditional headphones in the market, these are on-ear headphones. Basically, the ear-cups here sit exactly on to our ears.

Distant Mountain here packs a V-shape sound with a neutral to bright tonality. The sound is lively and energetic with good punch in mid-bass, clear vocals, and forwarded treble. I don’t find the Distant mountain to sound harsh or fatiguing, although I don’t find On-ear design to be comfortable for me. Distant Mountain is quite easy to power, we can drive it using the included RZ200m DAC itself.

Overall, solid build quality with CNC machined metallic frame, good sound, and a unique design is appealing at least for the tech lover in me. How do you guys find the On-Ear design of these headphones? Check out my complete review to know more about this beautiful Headphone.

[ErKil]

Any chance that you can compare this to for example Koss Porta Pro?

[Rikudou_Goku]

(note that he likes dark treble.)

[gadgetgod]

I have not heard the Koss, but my impressions for the Distant Mountain are quite different. SUb-bass doesn’t have that physicality. It’s mainly mid-bass. I also find it to be neutral to brightish and not warmish at all.

[gadgetgod]

Sorry bro i have not heard the Koss

[ToneDeafMonk]

The Distant Mountain was not a good sounding Headphone for me.
Not comfortable either I don’t like the pressure on my ears.
