Thank you. I work as a Design Director for a large design firm and I sometimes spend a lot of my time working and listening to music while I work, so I don’t know if I’d have the time to put into doing reviews.

I enjoy sharing my impressions and helping others making purchasing decisions. I also enjoy hearing others opinions and learning as much as I can from others. I’m like a sponge in that regard.

I don’t know if I would have the time to put into doing reviews, but you’re right, I think I would love doing it because I don’t care if a product is good or bad, or if it costs a lot or is cheap. I enjoy hearing everything and coming to conclusions about what I hear and sharing my findings.

I have tons of respect for all the time and effort @hawaiibadboy and @Rikudou_Goku put into this hobby and their reviews. Thank you for all you do guys! Keep up the great work.

OMG… Glancing at that graph, I said to myself… That looks like the Fearless Tequilla. Then I looked at what actually was graphed. lol!

Now that’s an IEM I couldn’t stand.

This. When I link these forums I usually say the rule of thumb is to find @Rikudou_Goku’s opionion and reviews on stuff and your comparisons with TOTL gear. That’s how I started into IEMs, tips, cables and now Buds. The problem is when you start checking @hawaiibadboy stuff… then you’re in debt :slight_smile: His hype is too contagious.

I started IEMs with FH3 and FD5 as @Rikudou_Goku’s rec. Then I saw yours and @hawaiibadboy opinion about the Teas and since I didn’t love FD5 treble, I returned it and pulled the trigger.

Two months later and I’m deep into Xenns UP :rofl:

Yeah, for open cans I have the Fidelio X3 - that’s how it all started. Also own porta pros and some Sony’s WH.

Speakers and vinyl will be the end game… After a nice DAC and AMP and Mest Mk2. Oh and Sundaras. And probably another DAP… Yeah i’m so screwed.

Anyone know anything about this beauty?

Skip it. The reviewers are “burning in” and changing the cable to “improve it”…

Instant red flags for me.

Here are some posts if you are curious:

I totally agree. @Rikudou_Goku sent me down the earbud hole. So far very happy. I love @hawaiibadboy straightforward review style. However his budget is usually beyond my modest student income

For me the sounds from my BLON BL-03s are much more refined and more alive after replacing its stock filters with the mesh filters that I bought for it as replacements, and to think that the BLON BL-03s are already impressive as hell with its stock filters now even more impressive with its filters changed, that is saying something in my opinion.

The sub-bass can be overwhelming to some right? but with the stock filters replaced it is more controlled therefore not bloated as before, and it is favourable to me since I am not a basshead, but that does not mean I don’t want any bass lol.

That’s my takeaway from it, to me it is an improvement but to you it might be different. I mean you can give it a try and if you don’t like, you can always go back to the stock tips anyway.
