Guys as promised I have finally done it! My very first IEM that is from AFUL! Holy shit these are a beauty to see and to hold. I hope this one can finally overall be the one that can say to me “I am your endgame set now.” which is not so possible since the technologies and sounds are just keep on improving. I will give this a listen immediately and so far it’s looking really promising fellas!

My gremlin arrived!! Line out of my Centrance Hifi M8 v2.
Quite a contrast of white led vue meter to that warm orange glow

Got these bookshelf speakers. Great sound for the price.
Also got these for as a birthday present for myself. All I can say is it’s my endgame for the time being. Using Divinus velvet tips on them and a 24 core Silver-plated cable with 4.4 balanced termination.
Both of these are being fed by my FiiO K11.

One of my tubes for an FX-Audio Tube-03 preamp is causing trouble, So I got myself a pair of these as replacement:
They look a little wide, might have to do some grinding.
Most importantly though, they cost about as much as the entire amp did XD.
But it was that or go full amp with a balanced Tor audio or something, so I wanted to see if I could even hear any difference. If I decide to give that a shot, this will be a drop in the bucket by comparison. Might have to get a bit drunk on christmas to convince myself it is a good idea.
update
turned it wasn’t the tube, it was the power supply that needed replacing.

not sure what stock tubes that comes with but 5654’s are tiny and says it should be compatable lol
Ordered some socket savers for my 2025 tube rolling on the Vali 3 and the upcoming Valhalla 3.

My QoA Adonis New finally came in. I bought a nice purple Hakugei cable for it, but pictures were a bit misleading. In reality the cable is VERY pink… Still, I kind of like the look. I’m keeping it.

I had the same Hakugei cable! I kind of wish I kept it for my Adonis New as well, but it went with my EXTs I sold. It’s a really nice cable imo.
Anyways, I’m looking forward to your impressions, brother. I’ll reserve how I feel about them for now…

Yeah, I’m still doing some initial listening. So far I’m surprised to be finally hearing a Kinera (affiliated) set that seems to be a enjoyable. Not exactly a detail monster though.

Yeah, the Adonis is purple. And I thought I bought a purple cable.

Seems like the pics on Aliexpress were wildly oversaturated and underlit.

I agree, it’s definitely not a detail monster in the slightest.
The bass was a bit disappointing for me as well.

I bought these tips directly from Penon Audio and I must say, these tips are so weird and odd. And yeah from what I am seeing from these tips it doesn’t fit on IEMs that have really large and thick nozzles for these are more compatible with iems that are either narrow or regular in terms of the size.
But when it fits, for me it fits just right, specifically on my Performer 5+2 for I am still in that process of tip rolling. I cannot choose between the W1 and these, for both provide the fit and comfort that I want and as well as the sounds. But, the Propeller tips from ePro seems to provide more soundstage to the 5+2s, while the W1 provides more on the comfort side for the Propeller tips for me are just weird when it comes to the fit but it works in my ears so well.

They fit, but on both these and the stock tubes I have to bend the pins to get them to engage and not miss the socket.
LOL those tips are really like sharingans, but then again it’s so weird and unique for me in my ears. And it’s working so well surprisingly on my Hidizs Mp145s right now and those are tough to find a proper fit for me.
