On hibrids, yeah. I even had that problem on FD5 and itās an open back single-DD 
On full BA sets, pressure is forever 
I pull the top of my ear up and backwards a tiny bit to break the seal for one second and even out the pressure.

Yeah, no pressure, but I see what you mean about foams. I think these are dekoni somethings. And I donāt like foams for a lot of other reasons. 
That would be a hard no. Let me know how RSV goes. cause, thatās probably a ānot in a million yearsā situation for me.
Dekoni sound like shit to me. I heard Zeos when I startedā¦ Damn.
Can tell you right now itās a no go then. RSV isnāt vented. Even lokahi, SA6, etc are vented u still get some pressure.
You have to keep in mind your brain is panicing as well. Uāre not used to it, itās the first time you getting thatā¦ Try spinfit CP100/145 or Radius deep mount
PS: My EJ07m did build up for 2 days, and itās a vented tribid 
I mean, the pressure sucks. But the sound goes to garbage too.
cp145 in medium seem to āsettle inā and the pressure gets released after a few seconds and sound goes to normal. Also, I love these tips on EVERYTHING. so, bonus.
Interesting.
I donāt think the pressure being continuous is something I could adapt to. But getting used to it venting as I start listening would be ok.
However, these are going to be damn near impossible to compare to my other IEMs directly if this isnāt a thing that goes away on insertion. No a/b or back and forth with these.
Ok, gonna try and keep them in for a while. But all the in/out has already built up burn/itch. Probably only get a short session today.
Let them do their magic over night. Keep Spinfits on and tape the tip bore somehow.
That wonāt last forever and your brain also canāt process it. Youāll get more and more used and it will ābreak inā. Also, when it driver flex, donāt remove it, just break the seal by pushing ur ear or something.
I got full pressure buildup on HBBās Xenns UP with CP100 every day I got it to do the review.

It seems that I can get a good quick fit with cp145 medium. (excellent actually. This is up there with the best fit I have ever had).
Will see how they do in the morning. but right now, things are looking good.
Good IEMs. I have a lot to say about them. Already have several pages of notes.

Teas will just keep surprising and growing on you. The more balanced tunings are, to me, the ones that need more time. Once you get itā¦ Boom.

Great, after searching the word āteaā, I got nothing but Mangird Teas showing up on my feed all the time. Goddamn! even my browser is also telling me to get them like āWhat the fuck are you doing and waiting for right now?! BUY THESE!!ā
I will, I swear I will, but it will take time.

Nice looking stack, care to share the details?
Oh, nothing special reallyā¦
Shanling M3X (Line out) > VE Run About Plus 5 (Special edition) + Warp Core > Xinhs Custom cable + 4.4mm to 3.5mm single ended adaptor matching > Teas (Radius Deep Mount).
Warp core is like a bigass battery (bottom stack) that feeds the amp (lasts for around 50h). The amp was a special edition I got when I bought my VE Zen 2.0. The rest is pretty explanatory 
My usual OTG is just M3X, L&P W2 or both at the same time Depends on library, mood and the set Iām using, since M3X (and VE RAP5) are warm and W2 is clean/analytical.
How warm is the M3X by itself? Is it noticeable? Iāve been giving it a look since it looks like it does a vast majority of what Iād want in a DAP, especially that battery life.
Also do you have any idea what the standby/sleep life of the M3X?
Itās just a tad, you prolly wonāt notice if you have no experience with other sources. Itās an amazing piece, I love it. The battery life is around 19h on playback, thatās one of the reasons I love it.
Yeah the battery life is what stood out to me and the upgradable 2tb isnāt too shabby either and itās doesnāt have unecessary stuff for my needs like MQA.
Good to hear itās not really noticeable, so Iāll save up for one and good news that hopefully Linsoul will be sending my Oracle back next week
So, my cheap IEMs died yesterday (right earbud at least), so the time to upgrade has come. Yet, Iām torn between the Tea and the new kid on the block, Timeless.
Priorities are resolution/clarity and soundstage. I feel like the consensus so far is, Tea for soundstage and Timeless for resolution.
Which makes choosing one really difficultā¦
As anyone made the comparition yet? Can you link?
Danās Audio Reviews (1, 2), various opinions in 7HZ Timeless Planar thread, also people in this very thread vouching for Tea āholgraphicā, ā3Dā soundstage.
No explicit comparison between the two pairs though.
