Japanese iem brands

I do want to try them…but they dont send to sweden (amazon japan) :sob: :sob: :sob: :sob:

Gotta grease some palms to get some, like I’m getting some aftermarket cables for them soon, an adapter or something lol. And it ain’t cheap so I’m dedicated to my Sony’s :smiley:

They are around 200 usd right? I would get it if I could lol.

Used around 200, or New closer to 250. Hope that helps.

How’s the fit?.. as they just look awkward to me lol

Where did you get yours from? Are there fakes out there?

Fit is great, they float and almost no contact with the ear. The hooks are wierd to get used to, but with the chin slider it helps them feel more secure. I use final audio tips since they are close to stock sony tips, but better sizing. And I ordered mine from Amazon, but they are sketchy in the white box, but not any fakes that I’m aware of. Some were concerned about fakes due to this, but that’s how they come.

I was just curious about them tbh, I have an absolute open mind when it comes to what to expect, they weren’t too expensive so nothing ventured nothing gained as they say :+1:

At least you get the Final Type E tips. They are awesome!

Can’t go wrong with Oriolus. Not as exclusive as their subsidiary Hyla. Check out the Oriolus Finschi Hifi Edition, which IMO is on the same playing field as the Ikko OH10, but with less peaky treble.

Is there any specific reason for why a lot of Japanese iems (even more expensive ones) have a non-detachable cable?

We only provide the highest quality cables with our products…why would you ever consider changing them!!! Lol in reality it could be a form of forced obsolescence. I think a cable or a connector will fail long before a driver and force a new purchase. Compounded with a cost saving measure. So my guess is $$$

Getting people to buy more when the old cable dies is definitely a part of it.

But I feel like they would get more purchases if they had a replaceable cable instead…it is a deal breaker for a lot of people if something costs a lot and still is non-replaceable. For example the intime Sora TI3 costs around 200 usd and has a non-replaceable cable…

Yepp, it could also be an aesthetic thing with the iem looking less bulky by not having a connector. I’m deff with you on not buying if there is no replaceable cable, but maybe “normal” buyers are not that way so they do it. I wonder if it has to do with the target demographic for the product as well as what has already been mentioned. :thinking:

I thought about “normal” buyers too. But dont they mostly just buy bluetooth stuff from mainsteam brands from Sony, Samsung and Apple. I feel like not many “normal” people would buy a wired iem and instead go for wireless.

Are there any one that has some Intime iems? The sora 1 looks really nice on the graph (I ordered the Sora 2)

How did you ordered intime sora? is there an online shop that ships to US?

You can either use a forwarder (extra fees) or you can mail them directly and pay with paypal: [email protected]
(which Is what I did)

What forwarder did you use bro? are you from US? how much is the charges.

I didn’t use a forwarder.

I contacted them with the mail. I paid around 100 usd I. Total. I am in Sweden (25% tax)
