He is so back and forth with his opinions you really shouldn’t listen to what he says. He probably has like 5 or more videos calling Etys and Variations trash too. But It is pretty fair to use FR to judge a product because techs can only do so much to clean up an unenjoyable sound.

Yeah there’s a lot of great IEMs that measure well out of the box that are like 20 bucks or below.

I have the Sundaras and they’re trash compared to a decently EQ’d IEM especially when it comes to treble extension.

Technically yeah I guess. I download everything in 320kbps onto my DAP because it only supports up to 256gb. It’s pretty convenient tbh, I drop like 30 new albums in and it takes about 10 minutes for it all to transfer.

I know “IEMs” like MDR-EX15LP and RP-HJE120 sound pretty nice and don’t measure anything ridiculous that can’t be fixed with EQ (both Bassy V). Can you describe the sound signature of the Polaroids?

I like having music stored onto my local files and using a DAP so I don’t understand why people don’t just use or take advantage of “name your price” albums on Bandcamp.

Have you tried EQing them to fit to your liking a little better?

You don’t shove the eartips into your ear canal. It’s meant to rest on the concha and then you slightly press them into the entrance of the ear canal for seal. That’s why it hurts.

Eh, TE Holas don’t seem like a good alternative to me. Over ear IEMs are uncomfortable to me and the Sound signature isn’t anything like the EX15s (bassy V).

Good at being mid af

Sony WH-1000xm4sfor $199. Yes I know they’re not audiophile-friendly or whatever but I love them enough to have already decorated them.

Bro those are on sale over here for $249 or €266. You overpaid around €114.

I download maybe 10-30 albums every week or so and try to listen to all of them whenever I have the time to do so. The last one I listened to fully was Geek The Girl.

Most premium bluetooth headphones nowadays have some good out-of-the-box neutral tuning, even Beats with the Studio Pros. I will admit though Soundstage is lacking for all of them.

I smell cap but if you say you think it’s that noticeable I’ll believe you. Frankly all headphones so far have sounded the same to me, even the ones with some funky tuning like Grados compared to my Sundaras so I guess it’s me not picking up on something that the manufacturers are putting down right in front of my face.

Just google it if you’re confused lil bro
