After seeing both Zās and BGGARs reviews, I had to pull the triggers. Dudes have totally different ways of auditioning these. Been following Z for years and I have rarely seen him this excited about somethingā¦ Comparing those to the Arya and even saying they are better is a very serious claim. And considering the preorder on Drop is 100$ less than what is on linsoul, I just had to pull the trigger!
By the way guys, I messaged linsoul and they donāt have them in stock anymore which is a given, Iād say. But the important part is this - if you donāt feel like waiting until end of April, because that is when the Drop order will ship, linsoul will have them in stock again by the end of the month. Because it will cost you more, the guys ship free of charge with DHL express and you can ask them do declare a low value for you so that you donāt pay extra customs fees.
eh, think I will hold on this one as well just like the zeus till it pops up nearbyā¦ this seems like another hypetrain from hell. I havenāt seen any details on measurements or real indepth claims on this things sound signature everything so far has been relatively vague. That plus the fact linsoul has that 35% restock fee for just opening the box + you have to pay to ship the item back to china + you have customs feesā¦ I suppose I could buy it and sell it off if I donāt like itā¦ but whatever, iām lazy and donāt feel up to the hassle of potentially losing money. just write it down to add to my headphone collection for later onā¦ if itās as good as stated, it will definitely stay on my own personal wall
if someone has the time and hardware to throw some serious feedback on these with a detailed sound signature explaination and maybe itās measurements, please feel free to tag me as I would be interested to hear others thoughts on this. Thanks in advance.
from what I learned from many hype trains the helios being one of them jsut wait for the dust to settle as reality shows itself when the dust clouds are dissipated. personally if any ofthese headphoens show themselves on amazon thats when Iāll audition them but I dont trust linsoul enough. we still have a ton of headphones that have proven their value from the masses and the overall audiophile community to try anyway. though I am enjoying the increased amount of interest and production from chifi. and if they affect the headphone market like they did with the IEM market this could prove overall a good thing. I just dont want them copying each other again like the sendy aiva train and leave in itās tracks loads of QC issues
Zeos, youāre telling us thereās no disadvantages in terms of the sound signature of these cans? No HP, no matter how good it is, is not gonna have at least some drawbacks. The way you reviewed it is youāre giving the impression these things are literally perfect in every way.
Since you mention gaming, how would these compare vs. the TH 909ās? The 909 and 900ās are (in my experience and yours) perfect for āshit your pantsā gaming. How do these Gold Planars compare?
Here is my issue if you buy from linsoul and you want to return this is whatās on their websiteā¦ Policy

oof, first planar? Man you been missing out lol. I love planars, Aeon still remains in my collection and LCD-2C has a special place on my shelf since my nighthawks arenāt here. Sundara broke(shocker I know!) so thatās out lol.
let me know what you think, I am going to be keeping my eyes on the markets just incaseā¦ loaner copy doesnāt seem possible at this point in time with this particular headphone which is unfortunate. I damn sure donāt like the idea of flying blind at this price point
