šŸ”¶ Tripowin X BGGAR Mele

I trust Resolution with my credit card. I think that says it all :slight_smile:

Yea I trusted @Resolution enough to buy his Oracle off of him in honestly a couple of hours of talking to him about it.

This coming from the guy I sold my Oracle to. You should know better dude. Look at the graph and if you canā€™t believe your eyes, listen with your ears. Iā€™m just telling the facts sir.

Thanks for admitting it and thanks for the trustā€¦ In the futureā€¦ I guess/hope. lol

That is why I was at least smart enough not to post it, or I would be doing a Passion for Sound blind test to try and prove a pointless point and then arguing that the test is flawed.

Mele with 2 core Xinhs cable and sedna crystal tips (it came with some wide bore tips so I used my preferred wide bore). Also the stock cable is not awful, a lot better then a lot of OEM IEM cables.

Totally agree.

Iā€™m using the standard cable even though I have quite a few spare aftermarket cables.

Might change it at some point but itā€™s nice and I really, really like the tiny connector on it.

Reminds me of the (2.5mm) connector XINHS uses on some of his/their cables.

Itā€™s just a well thought out package in generalā€¦ :slightly_smiling_face:

YES, THIS.
I switched to Tripowinā€™s Jelly add-on cable for a night, changed it back to the stock first thing this morning. Unless the Xinhs graphene come along to prove otherwise, Iā€™m keeping the stock cables on my Mele.

Even the stock wide-bore tips werenā€™t shabby at all, if it werenā€™t for the nozzle becoming a humidity magnet for me, Iā€™d keep using the wide bore tips. Donā€™t know if that humidity issue was just me or someone else experienced it as well. But after two full days of listening, I even think the wide bore performs better than the Spinfits. Wide bore tips just give Mele a bassier experience and taller sound stage.

Example of humidity magnet, but I assume itā€™s due to the shell material:

Early first impressions after having listened to 4 or 5 songs. Thatā€™s definitely a signature iā€™m not used to.
As an hobbyist singer, I love having the voices as forward as possible, and Mele doesnā€™t do that.
I have a track in mind where the bass region seems overdone with Mele (teasing for my future review , read it if you want to know what song it is :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: ).

On the hardware side, the cable is good and the design (gold faceplate) is great.
The buds are way lighter than the Aria. That, added with the structure of the bud makes a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery comfortable fit. I can easily see myself keeping these in my ears for hours (after I find the good tips).
Default tips seem suite good, but I quickly change them for the spinfit cp100, since they were the tips used for tuning.

I also took the jelly cable. It is copper and grey, so will be a quite good visual match with the golden faceplate.

I tried to take some pictures but it was too late and the light conditions where sh*t.

When you get around to pics, would love to see side-by-side with the Arias. :+1: The Starfield/Arias have a great fit for my ears, but the weight and sag on the ear hooks cause me a touch of pain.

Iā€™ll try to remember.
But I may not come with no photo at all: taking good pictures of iems is way harder than I thought.

I got mine today. They are very nice. They have met my expectations. I canā€™t recall any iem with better tonality under $50. Iā€™ve been performing music live on the local scene for over 20 years. I know what instruments should sound like and these things do a great job. Nothing is overly exaggerated or lost in the mix. Thank you for doing what you do BGGAR.
