i think i will go with the final E3000… if I don’t like them i will tell you and you can see what other sound signature I might like instead… i hope its good
You referring to the vk4? They are pretty great for the price. Good imaging soundstage timbre in the treble can be metallic but barely noticable. Occasionally sibilant not enough to really bother me all the time but enough not to daily drive them , the mids are ok and the bass is present with pretty good extension. They are like a slightly less natural sounding more sibilant mh755
also i dont trust aliexpress mostly because I know some shady and low quality shit can be on there and would rather use something official like linsoul, Shenzhen audio, or an official store website to buy or if I’m really desperate I’ll go give bezos my money
linsoul = DD audio store, shenzhen audio and many other are there too.
As long as you buy it from a well known place it is no problem at all, and aliexpress keeps the money until you got the product and then deliver it to the seller.
Got yanked because of buyer feedback. Cash money. I don’t give a fuck what other reviewers think hence my hype of BLON 03 for months and months. I am not friends with any reviewers. I don’t do podcasts with others. They are strangers to me as much as you are.
I like Roland but it appeal was uniqueness and that is not a reason to hype something. A lesson learned and not repeated.
Stick to the Music. Describe the music. What sounds wrong? What sounds right?
That’s all i do now.
MEST has been out for 6 months. No hype. It’s just a beast with my library and is a prime example of how…say…
ODIN with it’s graph embargo and friends of Empire gets attention because of those “friends” and MEST does a loaner tour and well…that ain’t gonna do it

You guys have any recommendations for a KZ/CCA IEM. Looking to try something new (but really just itching to buy another IEM).
Already looking at a few choices:
CCA: C10 PRO, CA16
KZ: ZS10 PRO, ZSX, ZAX
Currently rocking BLON 03 and absolutely in love with them.
Hey guys, is it absolutely necessary to get an upgrade cable and eartips for the blon 03? Would I be missing out on anything if I use the stock cable and tips?
The biggest and most important reason why people suggest you change the tips/cable is that the stock ones are very bad with fit. So if you can get a good fit/seal no need to buy anything else (as getting more tips/cables will just make the value of the 03 drop). But for me and for many others changing them are a must to get a seal/fit.
I recommend you change the tips to the Azla sedna tips (you can also put a “O-ring” on it to extend the nozzle a bit) and see how it goes if the cable still bothers you then feel free to change it.

So it would mostly be to do with the tips and the cable would just be an aesthetic change?
Both the cable and tip change is to help with the fit.
Oh ok I see, which relatively low cost cable would you recommend?
Since the 03 is so cheap, I would normally advice against getting a cable that is close to it in price.
But this one is the best cable I would recommend, extremely low measurements and very good build quality: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000400771561.html

Those 3 cables are my top 3 recs for cables, for all iems.

Anyone try the KZ ZAX yet? I’ve been hearing some good stuff about it lately
BGGAR just did a compare to the CCA C16, which I guess is very similar and says he prefers the C16 because of some treble sharpness on the ZAX. Haven’t heard them for myself, but have been interested to see what people think of them as more get delivered since my ZS10-PRO set is starting to crumble around the connector.
i think i might just not be ready for chifi
Thats too bad. I have purchased around 70 iems and probably half as many cables from aliexpress and hifigo without any problems.
Only iem I had any QC problems with was the Ibasso IT00 and ironically I ordered that with a store in europe (advancedmp3players).
did i mention this is kinda scary
i just want one IEM
not a collection
I mean you are going to run into this problem (if it will fit, if you will like the signature or driver config, QC) in all iems, not just chi-fi.
If you just want one iem that can do it all, I would suggest the Fiio FH3 and it is available with amazon too.
