cool idea, you should go for it!
Did anybody that attended the SoCal canjam happen to hear these? I’m not an “IEM” person but interested in getting a set around the 500 - 700 price point that is both warm and thick/meaty mids. I was told this one is not tuned like the Helios. Just not sure if this will be competitive with other options in the same range. Was also thinking the Kina Lava or maybe going used instead.
Got mine Xinhs Eramsuses today. Boy, oh boy - they are beautifully crafted.
They also sound damn sweet as well - my favourite female sounding male vocalist Rhye (check it out, you won’t believe it is not a woman singing!) did not sound so beautiful in long tine. And most of all they are sooooo comfortable for me to wear right of the box. I did not have so great fitting IEMs since Tea. S12, Olina, Mele, Mest, Kai, Truthear Zero - all I had to fiddle to get it properly and securly in or else I constantly feel the presence of them in ear (my beloved MEST are the worst in that category ). These fit like a glove with first selected Audiosense S400 tips.
Huge, huge recommendation straight out of the box - is it probably same value as Olina for most (or because of the fit - for me it is even better!) and that speaks tons. Congrats @Tonytex_Teixeira!!
Thank you. I am super happy you like them
Thank you for your support
Hi everyone.
I confirm the admiration for Erasmus I have been a happy owner for 3 days and I am still delighted with them.
Is Paul Wasabii the only squig that has Erasmus?
Now I know why the fit of Erasmus feels so familiar and so good - the shell is almost the same as KZ CRN which I keep until now just for that single purpose that the fit like a glove for easy doning and doffing!
How to profit without effort?
- Hire an artist.
- Draw some weeb bait.
- Put it on the box
- Tuning the iem? eh, doesnt matter. Spend more money on the artist instead of the iem and we get more profit.
(graphs like a sealed earbud lol.)
Moondrop moment, except they tune to make you deaf.
Just bought some Sony XM4 wireless earbuds today. Does that count as IEM here, or am I doomed now ? They sound pretty good after having them EQ‘ed inside the app. And they seal well
Is $319 a good price for the FH7?
Not at all - in my experience they are $200 and below nowadays. That includes brand new.
Are they any good?
I haven’t heard them. I’ve heard the FH5, and some have said the FH7 was a marginal improvement. Some people are huge fans of the FH7 (I’m thinking @SoundEater if he has any comment).
My take on the FH5 is that it was great for its time, and still fun now, but there are better choices for timbre and coherency for the same price now.
throw away IEM, keep box - profit
Here’s my measurement
It is surprisingly close to Kai before high roll off! Interesting I had different feelings in terms of the genre use case for both…
Thanks! Looks tasteful to me. Looks like reducing female vocal intensity/guitar bite from something like the Serial, which isn’t strident or overly pronounced in that area to begin with.
Presumably a very relaxed listen overall?
Don’t forget that it has two switches, so the treble can be boosted. I’m guessing this graph is with both off
hey I noticed you have the vortex and are one of the few people who graphed it. would it bee possible for you graph it with the vent filter removed?
