There are no reviews but looks like a company graph. It looks pretty basic from here
What led you to take a chance on it?
Off the top of my non-photographic memory the triple peak âcrownâ recalls the FD5, Norn, and I think acoustics sets?
To my ears it sounds pretty balanced overall. Nothing stands out and nothing is lacking which makes it an overall enjoyable listen.
The midbass is absolutely fantastic, i love its quantity and texture.
Midbass>Subbass emphasis.
Subbass is there when called for and also of very good quality
Still I would probably ad 2-3db of subbass but I am not really missing it much on most tracks so i would not say it is lacking, it´s a matter of preference.
Mids are nice and clear, vocals sound natural and present, definitely not laid back but also not too much in your face.
The upper Midrange is really niceley done and engaging.
Treble is nicely done aswell and nothing is really missing but in comparison Kinda Lava is a bit more airy and realstic on the high hat hits from âThe Speedwalker live at Madison Square Gardenâ
On the technical side, the stage is really nice and wide. Sounds are easily located and coming from all directions which gives a holographic impression and to me that´s the star of the show.
Build quality and fit is also fantastic, its a pretty tiny monitor and perfect for smaller ears.
If I would not own KL already I would be very much tempted to buy this one, especially now that it is on sale for 360⏠which is a âbargainâ for a tribrid with that tuning/performance
I thought these peaks would be a problem, especially the first one but to my suprise it is not.
So far only with bad recorded metal I had to turn down the volume.
With my Kinda Lava i am reaching for the volume knob more often.
Here you can find two reviews:
I am in a german Hi-Fi Forum thats where I also got the Meteor to demo and more are about to come, next will be Xenns Top and Fiio FH7s, cant wait
Sorry for piquing your interest and threatening your wallet but the Magma really deserves way more attention and I would love to hear everyone elses opinion in here.
For metal FH7 are of great performance. One of the best for this genre at any price. But an OG cable makes the sound harsh, listen to them with pure copper cable . And FH7 needs a very good DAC/AMP.
I have FH7. I thought you were talking about him. I havenât listened to the FH7s, but it looks like it wonât be very good for metal with that boost in the mids.
Otherwise, if you can try the FH7 OG, unsurpassed performance for metal, knocks everything down to $1000!
I really loved FH3 for metal and now i am really curious about FH7 for that specific genre. Would love to try it when i get my hands on it
Friendly PSA for all my IEM friends with more than usual wax production (and probably those with normal production as well). Clean your tips with rubbing alcohol periodically to get the best seal and thus sound quality. Its suprising how noticeable of a difference it is
I have read 64 Audio Trio review on ASR today (obviously worse than Truthears Zero as it fits the target harman curve worse) and apart from people claiming that for IEM everything that matters is FR (and all can be decoded from that even mythical âtechnicalitiesâ) a very interesting database of FR was mentioned that I am sharing. Apart form FR they did also measure impulse responses and distortion of some famous IEMs.
If you ever need to check your sets dynamic range this album will do thatâŚKate was on the the studio sliders too âŚ
I might buy Lan just for the cable
Build quality is solid metal The box quality is also really nice (very sturdy structure) especially with the carvings - sound wise Iâll get back to yaâll later
I have been humming and ha-ing about getting a pair of Serials for several months now. Finally decided to pull the trigger but found out they are sold out! Might be a stretch but does anyone here have a set that is seeing less than normal use lately that theyâd be willing to part with / and or demo for a few weeks?
Part of the hesitancy that I had comes from the inability to return to Penon if I ended up not liking them.
