according to audioshill if you cover the ports they become more neutral
i think
or maybe it was the other way around
he was super condescending
```One of the of most considered iems on this thrad is the Tin audio T2, exactly because of Its neutralish signature. You can search for Tin audio T2 on the search bar and read what people who got them think. There are also reviews on the internet on them. ```
like srsly
im tempted by those t2 though
ya maybe because he's a 🅱head
@Droidbot I think you were right regarding the KZ bluetooth cable. Tried the second one this morning and it seems nowhere near as bad. Pretty comfy tbh
zener diodes came in
will probably mod the bm-800 over the weekend
The B150 were going for 38$ on the Cyber Monday. I bought a pair that never arrived, thanks Brainvawz
An there are a lot of people saying that the B100 may be the best sub 80$ iem. They got a neutral-warm sound signature
And my Tin T2s are going to arrive tomorrow, hype
lol
those burn in instructions r insane
@bentech
>headfi
Just ignore headfi they're actually spuds
im so tempted to get that smsl idea
It measures nice at least
ordered
this thnkpad x230 has the worst dac eve
rlike
if you set the windows volume low
bass is just gone
```Considering this info, many sources provide enough power with low distortion to drive ZS5 v1.
The only ones which can't drive them properly are cheap DAPs like Benjie, or many smartphones, or weak amplifiers (and they are just fair with ZS6).
```
are the zs5 v1 that hard to drive?
no
zs5 aren't hard to drive, but they're slightly ever so harder than most things i have
so hard, so stronk
i feel like reading head fi is making me more stupid
It is
The chifi threads are purely massive hype machine echoboxes
when testing zs5 with MINT chinese incense, i can really feel the highs enter my brain and kill me
Yeah trying to get any sense out of the KZ impressions thread is ridiculous
I realised that any headfi thread with more than 10 pages is just degeneracy
you should really only be trusting objective headphone reviews where you can compare frequency response, tonality, etc.
