RikudouGoku's Database (IEMs/Earbuds/Headphones Ranking list)

Damn, I’ll just stick with my qudelix then. Hopefully that potential gets realized soon and we get the infinite power of DSP in a cable :crossed_fingers:

Yeah at the current state I can only give them a mild rec to newbies for their first iem. For anyone with a small collection or more, I see no need for it.

(especially if you are using local music and have easy access to PEQ apps.)

Credit to Ratchet from my discord server for recommending these to me.

EPZ DF: Essentially a TWS-sized tip (size is smaller than usual, so if you are using L sized Azla tips these will not work), tightens and lower bass quantity, while NOT making treble brighter (tames it a bit), you get more vocals.

EPZ SF: Essentially a TWS-sized tip (size is smaller than usual, so if you are using L sized Azla tips these will not work) fits very deep, excellent fit with short nozzled iems, tightens bass, while NOT making treble brighter (tames it a bit), you get more vocals. DEFAULT REC FOR TWS

@Rikudou_Goku you talked me into the Hisense Touch :man_facepalming::man_facepalming::man_facepalming:

This upsurge in sales that you are responsible for of a 2 year old device is going to mess with Hisense business analysts so bad

Haha sorry for your wallet. Hopefully we see more devices like this coming.

I am going to go pick up my Simgot EA1000 and the Tangzu Fudu now so I will try to have a word or two about them later since the 11/11 sale ends tomorrow I believe.

Got my Fudu and EA1000 today, just wanted to say a thing or two about them since the 11/11 sale is gonna be gone after tomorrow (although black friday is coming…).


My QC luck strikes back and Fudu matching is terrible but with that in mind I do have to say that I am not really impressed with it as the Shozy Form 1.1 which graphs very similarly and is ancient (4 years old) by now is still better to me (not much but still).

(Will talk and rank the Tang Sancai and the Divinus tips some other time)


EA1000, wont really say much right now since I do wanna wait for my EM6L to arrive (and Im possibly getting the Dunu Falcon Ultra as well) before I do anything more with it. But I do have to say that in stock, it is a bit bright and you might want to do some nozzle modding to tame it down (easy and cheap to do) so if you are both unwilling to do any mods (even if they are easy and cheap) AND sensitive to a bright upper-mid/treble then I think you should stay away from this.

If EA1000 is too bright for you, don’t worry about tuning kits and all that jazz. Just go get Ziigaat Cinno instead

And here I declined that one. :joy:

You might wanna apologize and tell them your evil relative Vegeta declined but you really want to try it

Haha too late, was before graph was out and it would have been in the EA1000/Fudu package that came yesterday.

Doesnt look like my alley anyway.

Yeah, maybe not.

But still would’ve gone better than Fudu. Wasn’t a fan of that and I didn’t even try a set with trash QC

My luck…why…

When you were looking at portable tube amps did you check this one out? On a quick look couldn’t find much about it…

Exactly and why I did not bother looking much into it. (and also because it does not have a clear window into the tubes!)

No tube glow - no time for that

Looking at weird Aliexpress finds - saw this ultra budget android DAP - was like €75-80 in the sale with coupon stacking. Gives me weird Fiio, Cayin & Zishan detailing vibes but can’t find much spec so have msged them - we will see if I get a better response than “sound is much improved”… :joy:

No brand name, no SOC nor dac/amp spec…yeah I would honestly just stay away from random crap like that.

But where’s the fun in that… I love shitting on poorly executed products

They advertise the presence of a scientific calculator as a defining feature - MUST BUY obviously

rip wallet :joy:

Aliexpress actually cancelled 14 of my orders in the sale as they told me I am a coupon security risk :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
I am taking this as a badge of pride if I am noted in the land of no data security as a “threat”

Having 6 accounts was always going to bite me in the arse… my own fault.
