Yeah, thats is wrong lol.
You can run way too much volume through any speaker/headphone/IEM and damage it… though you will likely go deaf first. Not sure if BA’s can fry quite the same as a dynamic driver can at way too high a volume.

The connectors shouldnt be like that. Sound like a QC issue… Talk to the seller!
Regarding the bass, try some tip rolling! Teas are very sensitive to tips and, in my opinion, cables. But you can use stock just fine, tips matter the most. Get some narrow bore ones that seal good in your years and you’ll get a nice sub bass. Altho, to me, teas are not bass heavy, while for some they are enough or even bassy.
Mids on the teas are brilliant! Glad you enjoy, welcome to the family

Try swapping L/R on the cable to rule out the pins themselves.
Needs just a little EQ for me after some burn in.
Couple db’s in the bass regions fill it in nicely.

is the bass decay faster than most iems or on average speed, please don’t say it is slow
Dont really think bass is slow. Teas’ bass is fast. Not beryllium fast, but fast

IMO it’s pretty fast - I literally thought the IEM was pretty dry at first.
Seems I’ve either gotten used to it or its loosened up a little over time, but it’s definitely not slow.

Yep it is pretty fast, comparable to the FH3’s which is beryllium to my ears.

With a 16 or 24 core cable, I Will found a sound improvement?
Yeah. Maybe sound quality downgrade with the past of hours.
Nope. Just looks/stifness.

After a few weeks of use I notice my mangird tea without grave or sub grave.
I’m using the small stock tips because for long listens I prefer the small ones. They are the ones with the indentations on the sides.
Could it be the tips?
Bass?..If you don’t get a good seal then you’ll get no bass, try the other tips or better still get some Spin 145’s or Final Audio E’s 
Hello, not sure if this is a good place to ask this question, but after reading the thread it got me intrigued about the Tea and looked around and seems like I’m able to find it locally which is great.
I made a post little while back for my first actual IEM and, I know it’s kinda dumb question, but how would you guys compare the Moondrop Aria to the Mangird Tea? I know they are nowhere near the same price point (Where I’m at you can literally buy 5 Arias for the price of 1 Tea and that’s shipping and tax included), but it would be great if I could hear from anyone who’s owned both with being torn between going right for the Aria or saving up a bit more for the Tea. Things like mids clarity, detail retrieval, and separation, airiness of the high mids/treble etc.
Watched Dan’s review of the Aria and heard the comparisons between it and the other super high end IEMs and even through the recording, YT compression, and my earphones on my laptop there was just something wow with the MEST and Xenns UP, like I guess I could describe the music coming out of them in the recording were like a crystal bell compared to say a brass one of the Aria. It made me wonder if the Tea can even get close to the quality of it’s older sibling.
Save up for the Tea!

I’ve been helping a forum member that owns the Tea with his next upgrade. He was wondering if he should go to the Monarch. He ultimately decided on the Variations. He likes the Variations a lot and now understands and can hear the differences in the sub bass tuning, but it took him a while to appreciate it. He kept saying how much he appreciated the Tea even after hearing a tribrid.
I told him there’s a reason the Margird Tea is my #1 recommendation around $300 - $500.
Everyone needs to remember in this hobby that everything comes down to personal preference once you get to a certain level, and the Tea is well within that level. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, The Mangird Tea could very well anyone’s endgame IEM. PERIOD.

It could be DD failure. That happened to my set and Linsoul replaced it. Confirm it using a frequency sweep of bass tones.
