yea, it seems like anything above like $50 is just marketing to stupid people

2017-06-18 05:39:50 UTC  

to be fair we were in a very loud break room and it was super loud at lunch time so i cant say i listened to it properly

2017-06-18 05:40:05 UTC  

but he had the whole rockbox ipod, dac/amp plastic banded together sorta shit

2017-06-18 05:40:08 UTC  

those $3000 IEM's are for dumb rich people

2017-06-18 05:40:23 UTC  

i want UE18+ or W900s man

2017-06-18 05:40:50 UTC  

yep i have been enjoying these xiaomi/kz iems for past 3-4 years havent realy bought anything outside of chifi

2017-06-18 05:41:23 UTC  

oh btw hektik

2017-06-18 05:41:27 UTC  

they refunded me 8 bux for the cable hehe

2017-06-18 05:41:32 UTC  

ZS5 are SAID to have 2ba 2dd

2017-06-18 05:41:40 UTC  

But someone showed they may not be.

2017-06-18 05:41:43 UTC  

didnt want to dog em too hard, i demanded a 5 bux refund but they offered 8

2017-06-18 05:41:44 UTC  

Verdict is still out

2017-06-18 05:41:48 UTC  

DD is confirmed

2017-06-18 05:41:57 UTC  

and one BA is probably in the nozzle

2017-06-18 05:42:02 UTC  

well, they're in there, for sure

2017-06-18 05:42:05 UTC  

like KZ did with the ZST

2017-06-18 05:42:19 UTC  

all drivers are in there

2017-06-18 05:42:29 UTC  

but there are no paths for two of them to exit into your ear

2017-06-18 05:42:44 UTC  

One is completely blocked off in the mold

2017-06-18 05:42:46 UTC  

where'd you find that info

2017-06-18 05:42:52 UTC  

on the head-fi KZ thread

2017-06-18 05:43:05 UTC  

thats like a 700 page thread

2017-06-18 05:43:09 UTC  

doesnt really mean much

2017-06-18 05:43:11 UTC  

which post

2017-06-18 05:43:18 UTC  

Someone noticed one of the BA's disconnected from the factory and it didn't change the sound at all when they reconnected it

2017-06-18 05:43:36 UTC  

Let me find it

2017-06-18 05:43:51 UTC  

was it measured tho?

2017-06-18 05:44:02 UTC  

seems kinda suspect but i dunno

2017-06-18 05:44:19 UTC  

kinda makes sense considering the weird build kz is known for

2017-06-18 05:45:39 UTC  

"There is only 1DD and 1BA that actually work"

2017-06-18 05:45:57 UTC  

There are a few others in the thread that re-shell them and will crack them open when they get their pairs

2017-06-18 05:46:03 UTC  

And we'll know for sure

2017-06-18 05:46:38 UTC  

huh interesting

2017-06-18 05:47:43 UTC  

so its essentially a DD+BA iem then

2017-06-18 05:48:01 UTC  

i'd get a pair to fuck around with but im kinda out of the iem hole for the moment

2017-06-18 05:48:03 UTC  

We don't know for sure yet

2017-06-18 05:48:36 UTC  

I know a lot of other companies probably don't like 1. the design 2. they have 4 drivers

2017-06-18 05:48:39 UTC  

So it may just be FUD

2017-06-18 05:48:51 UTC  

From other companies

2017-06-18 05:49:23 UTC  

lol chifi sabotage
