So, Black Friday offer in Amazon Spain was a good deal. 270ā¬ tax included when normal price is 340ā¬.
I have taken the bait. This morning I ordered them and they are at home now. SN 950
Frustrated because I canāt try them because I donāt have anything with 4,4 mm, I have no other cable that works with it, or any adaptor (tomorrow will arrive one from Amazon). Talk about first world problems
I really wasnāt thinking about buying them. But the offer made me think āworst case scenario I can sell them at a small loseā, but I am lying to myself, because I have never sold anything I bought thinking that.
Powering with a Loxjie A30 using a Geekria 6.35mm Stereo Male to 4.4mm Balanced Female Adapter.
Initial impressions: Music sounds great and a noticeable improvement from my Audio Technica M40Xs and SHP-9600s.
Gaming performance had me concerned at first as I was having a hard time where items/enemies were located based on sound. After some experimentation I figured out that the left and right channels were swapped despite wearing them correctly (cable labels matching the ones on the headphones).
Reversing the cables seems to have solved the problem but Iām not sure if the adapter is the cause. This is my first experience with the 4.4mm connector so unfortunately I donāt have any other devices to test for confirmation. Has anyone had any issues with channel inversion on the Eris, either with or without an adapter?
I let them burn in for 80 hours instead of the initial thought of 24 hours. Going to start giving them a listen now with some of my favorite bass tracks to see how they sound.
Hard to say if you donāt have another adapter or wire to test with. I would assume its the adapters fault or something else in the chain. Keep in mind you can also wear them backwards for More soundstage.
Just about to order a pair of these after being a longtime Z Reviews watcher!
You lead me to HD668Bs, a Syba Sonic, and an Antlion Modmic when I was first interested in better audio. Then to the X2HR with 2 sets of Dekoni pads, and a Schitt Fulla, which changed my audio enjoyment insanely! After several years, the headband on my X2HRs has finally started stretching out to the point I have to safety pin it to prevent sagging, so I decided to try out something new.
Iāve learned that I have about $300 ears, so anything above that will probably be wasted on me. Iām doing about 95% gaming, 5% music. It finally came down to the Sivga Luan vs Eris. Many said Luan was alright for gaming, but I keep seeing massive hordes writing that Eris is completely amazeballs for gaming, so Eris wins!
I noticed that Linsoul is currently only offering the earpads and not the headband for sale. Thereās one question posted on the store page from back in June where they only say āCurrently, we do not offer the headband separately for sale.ā and I havenāt seen anything else about that. Any idea when they plan on making that available or if third party options may become a thing? Definitely will want an extra set of all 3 pads.
Also, they list a 4.4mm to 3.5mm adapter for separate purchase on the page, but itās not specified or described what adapter it is. Itās about $11, so Iām just wondering if itās a discounted good quality adapter, or if itās like a shitty adapter that I wouldnāt want to use for my nice new headphones. Do you have any specifics on the adapter they list and whether it would be fine to use, or if we should maybe just spend another $10-15 for a better one? ā¦or consider upgrading to a DAC/Amp with 4.4mm out? lol
