What did everyone end up getting? This is my first venture into IEM’s mainly to upgrade from the Bluetooth Sony’s I was using before. I got the Moondrop Dawn Pro and KZ X HBB PR2’s !(I know I know but they were 16 quid and I wanted to try planar’s for cheap. I’ll EQ out any harshness on my devices as well as some micropore tape on the nozzles)
I had some extra rewards points available on Amazon, so I ordered the Truthear Hexa. I’ve found myself using IEMs more recently over my full sized headphones.
Nothing because there was nothing attractive for me personally.
Looking out for a Denon headphone on black friday but if there won’t be a good rebate I will just buy a Audio Technica ATH-M50x
Sony WH-1000xm4sfor $199. Yes I know they’re not audiophile-friendly or whatever but I love them enough to have already decorated them.
I got the Softears RSV for less than 600$ at hifigo. Hopefully they don’t disappoint because their return policy sucks. Also the questyle NHB12 for 100$ off on Amazon.
A lot of cables that are normally too expensive and are the correct price this week.
I ordered the Superlux HD668B for home use. Will probably also some tips for my FIIL T1 Pro since the stock tips are terribly flimsy and always slides out of my ears after a while
Bought things but not IEMs. Fiio BTR7, Fiio UTWS3 and Trettitre T-CP8
ddHifi TC44pro - I was looking for the smallest, most compact balanced USB C DAC
What’s the 11.11 sale? Is it over?
11.11 sale is basically Chinese Black Friday that happens on November 11th. Sales these days extend for more than one day though, probably to ease any confusion over time zones between China and other areas like the United States — gotta maximize those sales numbers.
Here in Germany it’s called singles day and some companies are doing it for a whole week.
I got two things during the sale:
- Moondrop Variations
- Mainly got them for when I’m forced back into the office here soon.
- Can’t use my ZMF Atticus as it is all open seating and the pelican hardcase looks like one for a pistol. That and without assigned seating/cubicle, I can’t leave them overnight like I did my previous job prior to the pandemic.
- Will use them with my Pioneer XDP-100R which I got years ago.
- SMSL AD18
- Will replace my Schii Modi DAC and the Nakamichi Receiver 3 I’m using as an amp for my two Bose 301 speakers. (Receiver and Speakers were given to me by my folks as they were collecting dust.)
Got them both for ~$470, not including tax, thanks to the coupon codes and the small amount of coins I had.
- Moondrop Variations
Yesterday I ordered a FiiO M11S, around $450, I am still not sure to be honest, I hope I didn’t make a mistake, some users here say a DAP is a waste of money, but other users told me a DAP is better than all android phones and should not listen to them :/
