23

24

a grand! jesus christ! isnt there something a little cheaper?

25

arent those headphones?

26

There’s not many, and I am not experienced with some of the chifi, perhaps the fiio fh7 maybe? The FLC8S might actually fit the bill

Im going through measuremnts trying my best to find any W shaped IEMs . hard to find them TBH. but like I said harman neutral to me is pretty good in both all around bass mids and treble performanceso we could look into that direction

28

ok so whats the best neutral i can get for the price 100-300

29

true as long as you use the right filter and tips on the flc 8s you might come out with a good W shape

30

Yes that also fits in his budget if I recall correctly, I liked my flc iem when I had it, very enjoyable sound

31

absolute best is hard to say. but the neutral obsessed tend to go fro Etymotics

32

The cheapest W shaped iems I can think of are the BQEYZ Spring 1.

what type of neutral do we want? warm , bright, bassy, harman?

34

The Dunu DK-4001 are a mild W shape as well.

35

I have actually heard the spring1, it was alright, but nothing jumped out to me. I do think the treble was it’s weakest point but I can see that being w shaped in a way

36

For that price range, that may be as W-ish as you can get, lol.

37

That’s a pretty sweet iem, very nice (but out of budget I assume lol)

I was actually wondering about some chifi with variable tuning dip switches if you could create a W that way?

Agreed. I’ve had success with Dunu as I’ve never had a build quality issue and they almost always have good soundstage for an iem.

these are 800$ did you mean the 3001’s?
