JAY's audio memes (and reviews/ranking too I guess)

:eyes:

That is not a set I’ve even heard of before. The graph looks like my cup of tea… now to check the price…

Oh shit, not bad at all. The cable is freaking stunning.

What a shame. I’ve heard that so many times now. I keep my pair in a drawer with 2 huge silica packs just in case. Once all the OG Teas are gone, I doubt there will be another set quite like it around.

Yeah, super in for the buy. I’ve heard good stuff about them being good bassy bois.

Right? I saw it drop like mid year but it went under the radar, I feel. But for $144 and then a $50 code off is a damn good deal.

AliExpress has some listed at $129ish? But I don’t think any coupons would bring it down to that same level.

Edit: LEC secured, waiting game until the 27th

i planned to use my 50$ LEC Code on buying two sets totaling to 120$ but now this tempts me a lot. being in this hobby is starting to test my self control :rofl:

So, I’ve never gotten these codes from Linsoul before, I secured a $50 one. I feel like they usually sell out every year, but I could be mistaken. It was almost too easy to get one… Now, do I have to wait till the 27th to use this thing? I am really really tempted to get the Adonis New now… I went from not knowing of this set’s existence yesterday to wanting it so badly… to your point, Wain, $144 with another $50 off is almost too good of a deal to pass up for a bassy option in my stable. I realized this morning that I don’t have many bass heavy IEMs, only 2 really. The Titans and Rosefinch, which are two completely different sides to the spectrum lol

So the last two times they did the LEC (this one and 11/11), they removed the First Come First Serve element from the Summer Sale. So, it was actually easy and no rush. The caveat this time around is there’s a minimum order you have to do now (summer was no minimum)

I think for Linsoul, their summer sale is their gold and they do the 11/11 and Black Friday to match the industry.

So, yeah, the code is sent just before the 11/27 Black Friday sale starts and then you can use it from there. They did that with the 11/11 though I didn’t find anything remotely interesting that time.

But, yeah, I’m all in for the QoA Adonis New this time around. This may be my only purchase unless I get something crazy with AliExpress. kiwi Ears x HBB Punch, Xduoo XD05T, or the Tap-1 would be the only things that I’d consider right now beyond Adonis New.

Plus it’s purple and unique looking. Like damn

Ahhhh, Gotcha gotcha. I almost never pay attention to these sales because I typically buy 2nd hand anyways, I’ve only ever bought a couple of IEMs brand new, it just never made sense to me and I try not to get wrapped up in the hype lol

But thanks, brother! I’m thinking I’m 100% on the Adonis my self. We’re talking under $100 before any taxes or anything get applied and I think I can stomach that, especially for that package. I just can’t believe I never heard of these before…

For sure, bro.

Yeah, I remember it was on the Discovery thread for a minute but teetered off. It’s stayed in the back of my mind until this recent set of sales.

I think AudioGeek did a tour of it but I don’t think it really got much traction or hasn’t stayed regularly talked about.

I know @ErKil actually tried them out?

Jeez, I have no idea how I missed that. Must of been at a time where I was trying to catch up on the thread and I just flew through it without actually reading the words.

Looking forward to getting my pair in, hopefully nothing silly happens like they sell out or something… that would be pain/

For sure, disco thread goes fast. :sweat_smile:

I doubt they’ll sell out right now. On AliExpress, the upcoming price is listed at $129 for the upcoming sale so I expect stock to kind of be available until maybe when Linsoul rolls out if other people have the same game plan as I do. But I’m sure Linsoul will have plenty of their own stock vs the AliExpress stock

Let’s hope, good sir.

And the Disco Thread does move at breakneck speeds, especially over night. It’s insane. I sometimes wake up to 5, 6 new pages… like this morning actually. It’s nuts lol

Damn, Amazon has a black friday deal on the Estrella right now. Thats crazy tempting

Yeah I really like the Adonis new. I think it is less talked about for a few reasons. It is in a price bracket with fierce competition. It is purple ALL the way, and thereby automatically excluded for some people, and then there is the fact that Kinera have had many “special” tunings over the last years, that make people suspicious of the new ones also😅. I don’t think the old Adonis got much positive mentions🤔. For less than a hundred bucks, i would call it a steal for sure!!
