Oh god i did that once

It was awful

Now i carry backup headphones

oof

looks decent

theyre better than decent

theyre fucking great

god tier fit, clean tight sound, listenable treble when you insert properly

still a tiny bit too much bass, but that can probably be solved with some porting mods

what are they exactly?

says on the bottom of the graph

but zero audio carbo tenore

ah

mb

the japs sent me a cute little oragami lol

oh 50$

theyre like 38usd on amazon if youre an amerifat

i payed 53aud for mine

42.50 w/ free shipping from jap

close enough

tfw non replaceable cable

yeah the cable isnt their *strong* suit

it doesn't even look good on pics

i dont have much of a nissue with that since i can fix most shit

@HEKTIK I'd trust the japs to make a great sounding earbud

even if you can fix it, *should* you

that said, a guy i know has used the tenores as his daily gym iem for a year

yes, theyre worth

xe800 still bettter other than fit/treble

nothing can beat the pure bass impact, texture, and cleanliness of the xe800 under like 200

fuck these are good, considering making semi ciem custom sleeves already

>stock tin T2 cable is this fucking piece of shit cable that has this zany fucking plug and knots like a motherfucker

seriously

lol

***WHY***

come to melbourne i wanna hear the t2

come to 🅱razil

Wtf is THIS

jej

It's hollow too

And it just screws off

looks like a diy fixed jack

it's like they fed the zs5 silver cable methamphetamines

cable druqs

I'm gonna stop using them until I get a silver cable of some sort with black accents

Because THIS IS SHITE

i bought the kz mmcx cable for my etys

I look like an actual massive twat wearing these

Shoulda got tenore <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

I'm using my one sided pistons now and I don't look like a fucking autiste

Who cares what you look like

it's also the fucking pistons have 0 cable noise whereas the fucking T2 cable swings in the wind like it's having a seizure

not like you can hear them laughing at you over the cable noise :^)

as much as the tenore cable is questionable in build, its pretty damn comfy and doesnt pick up any noise

okay scrublord question, how do you make frequency response curves

get a measurement mic and coupler

and then remember that it'll never be accurate to ear response

tfw can't disconnect ear to use as a mic

you kind of can use your ear as a coupler

in ear microphones are legit, but theyre not at all accurate after like 4k

I need

Real shit, best way to buy from Ali for Aussies is using DiviPay

@Droidbot why dont you just use your fake shure cable

wtf is divipay

It won't come off

It allows you to create virtual debit cards

use your teeth lol

i had to pull hard

Aren't you a fucking giant tho

I'm lankyboye

im 6'3"

I'm 6'0"

just put some muscle into it u pussi

also mmcx snaps appart easy if you can find the right angle

bruh mine is tighter than a chinks margins

Use a knife

No joke

Had to do that with one of my shires

Shures

that would also work

It's making dents in the cable instead

Even with my hands

wtf

I used Shures instructions and got one side off

Both sides off

Ayyyy

👏

fuck i hate myself for using emoji

They're on the fucking T2s now

Goodbye shit cable, hello comfort

lol

Sound > comfort

Just get a linum cable tbh

Don't get linum Bax though

Like worst connector ever

linum 🤢

those have like a 50 ohm impedance

Ye but they're so rhinnnn

When I buy some erynotic I'll prob think of getting another one

They'd work really well with earbuds

http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews2/hifiman4/1.html

hifiman made some electostats woawh

also 6moons is the worst audio site

like its just so bad

```In short, Shangri-La did create a quasi 'surround' sensation by not only staging well beyond my ears but also strongly behind my skull where one of those kidney-shaped airline pillows would cradle it. Like the famous "the goose is out" Zen koan, the sound was beyond any audible reminders of mechanical artifice, of being squeezed out like toothpaste or funneled through some orifice. It was simply present and huge at that. Once this strangely liberated sensation had settled in like a here-now version of futuristic neural hardwiring, I noticed unusually intense detailing of particularly stringed sounds and struck gongs and singing bowls.```

just get a monster cable

HDMI to mmcx

I mean, he can write while being high. That's something, I guess.

@Windatica http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews2/stavessence/4.html

nah u need that dude

```In our experiments with cable types, CAT5e outperformed CAT5 in tonality and staging. The e-type had more foundation in the lower frequencies and more micro detail for better stability of the virtual stage with more depth and width. We've lived happily with that for a long time. Then came Karol with his StavEssence Eloquence and boy how persuasive his cable proved to be. In the home,```

just omg

TFW you don't own any sonically stunning Ethernet cables

```With the generic cable, the diatonic accordion was far less palpable or present. The violin smoothed out while with the Eloquence, the friction of the wax-coated bow hairs was audible. Without it, brass percussion was less brassy and the double bass smaller and less woody. ```

what

huh they gave it a award

Now the question. Do you believe in instant gratification? We do; now. Call us gullible, naive believers or plain nuts. In our system, this cable opened up every single component. Music did not sound like this before.

how do they know it was wax coated

```We've seen how the last yard matters already with a base signal of just 50-60Hz. Now consider Ethernet speeds. For 100Mbit networks, it's up to 80MHz. That 80MHz is almost the frequency at which a 1-metre cable of any sort makes an ideal antenna according to the formula F(MHz) = 300.000.000 (m/s) / length of the antenna in meters * 4. Thus 300.000.000 / 1 *4 = 75MHz; pretty close. If we can filter that signal—which is noise to the rest of our gear—so it won't radiate freely, we end up with a cleaner overall sound```

wat

youd have to have a seriously shitty stremaing device

for the ethernet cable ot make any difference

^

That's always the problem to start with, but damn I like this review.

ye

its jus amazin

Tbh it looks kinda neat though.

hang on

```Contrary to standard CAT5 and 5e cables, Karol designed his to use only two pairs of wires; just the necessary ones [see contacts in next photo - Ed.].
```

http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews2/stavessence/m+h/2.jpg

lmao wtff

What the fuck

wtf

why doesn't the everything work? oh

oh ethernet only needs 2 pairs

gigabit needs 4

Implying that gigabit can't go over ethernet

imblying gigabit can go over something else other than ethernet

it can

it's called a really shitty fibre channel card

oooh

TIL

What's rhar

the fake 535 encased in blutack

Is it meant to have the spike at 1k

idk

its trash

Lmao

Lols

I got the TRN BT3 bluetooth cable today

Will give my impressions 6 hours from now

as close as i could get it to flat

so aids

@HEKTIK I'm gonna do it

do what

Er4

nice

which one

Idk

I gotta get this refurb deal while it's still on tho lol

dew it

PayPal credit 😎

Not sure

XR or Dr

SR

SR is probably better since it has less bass so is less congested

etys dont do well with bass at all

Ye I'll get sr tbh

I suppose with all their isolation the bass boost to reduce background noise isn't as needed

if youre expecting good bass out of an ety youre doing something wrong lol

ROLLOFF

Tbh I'm currently listening off my phone speaker

So any bass would be better than this

im loving these tenores tho

I wonder what the VE iems are like

Like a actual review

Not the cultish shit on his FB page

ask ofen in the headphones server

he heard em

I can always the SR I guess

Bass rises too early for me on XR lll

Done

Offered er4 sr

nice

Now gotta live on ramen for a month kek

how much you pay?

250gbp

oof

thats a lot

i paid like half that for my er4s'

Ye they're good value used

Actually I could just do that lmao

owo

@HEKTIK what are the triple flange tips like

rapey

theyre good tho

I was gonna say they look like they'd feel like anal beads in your ear or something

if you insert em wrong, sure

Do they go all the way in

but im used to etys

yes

Have you used Spinfits?

I got a pair today along with my TRN BT3, but I accidentally ordered SuperSmall

dont have spinfits

zero durability

just dont be a manchild :^)

@Windatica you mean the Spinfits have zero durability, or the dildo plugs

I mean the tenore

rock-zircon tier strain relief

maybe I just need more iem cases

i repurposed an old gopro case for my iems

TRN BT3

I might buy myself the mmcx version in the near future

what's the battery life like

Plug isn't recessed like the official KZ

See pic 1

Dunno, only got it today

Will let you know over the next week

what does it taste like

I walk 15min each to/from work

The official KZ lasts a week

So 2.5hrs at least

its almost 3 hours from my usage

The official KZ cable you mean

ye

Ah OK cool

It's just not comfy enough

It sounds OK but having the whole control unit on one side is misguided

ya the wire is kinda thick and its not symmetric

Always seems to tug on the right side

bluetooth cucks B^)

there's another 2 pin BT cable that has two battery units and it looks basically like a symmetric kz cable

You mean the one I just posted

no

<:chink:323022148870602752>

it didn't have the THICC in between

Intredast

nvm it was mmcx

tennmak

The BT3 is the only one I've seen that fits that description

Ah
