These are the real deal folks. Just got them from Nashville this morning. Put on some metal and started playing with my PEQ. Upper mids are the best I've ever heard. I added a few dB to the sub bass frequencies and all I can say is due to the comfort, isolation and sound, these just became my daily drivers. Great job Akoustyx. 👏

I have no idea why I waited almost to the end of my initial experiment with PEQ before I tested it with my firstborn, the Etymotic ER2XR. As fully expected, they are not the sonic mayhem of the Kai, nor are they the subdued yet balanced canons the truthears are. They are well past the truthears both in isolation and comfort. To my ears they sound equally as balanced if not edging out the Zeros. Guess this post means the prodigal son returned.

This morning I decided to try PEQ with my Truthear x Crinacle Zero. Seems the sub on this iem doesn't even turn on till you go below approximately 200 Hz. First impressions were readily a bass cannon. Little while later after the sub woofer hit, definitely another sonic cannon only much more balanced than the Kai.

Let me clarify, Mullvad is in the first slot, second slot is empty. A few ads get through. I put adguard in the second slot, no ads get through. Is there any way I can check if Mullvad is still active or could I just put adguards block list in my Netguard hosts file and just use Mullvad.

Ever though about using what this community is named - HEADPHONES?

From what I've read and what I understand about planars, they are extremely easy to equalize. I can attest to that since I've been playing around with my s12s and a parametric equalizer. They took the adjustments like a champ and more sub bass gives the music much more depth. For that matter, the added air over 15k does the same.

Your right, you don't hear it, you feel it. Music just lacks depth without it.

This is slightly slower than KISS. Too bad it doesn't support widgets.
