    Soundmagic P11s?
  • @jan_kristopher
    bro ang alam ko may mga specific iem na maganda ang seal pero kung 1:1 talaga ang hanap mo na sakto sa ear canal mo eh ciem na talaga since iba iba ang shape ng ear canal per person bro. FLIPEARS local ciem maker natin :D

    Natry mo narin ba mag tip roll? so far nag try ako ng combi tips ni aurem ganda ng seal niya sakin, not a total isolation pero sobrang improved siya than previous tips I had.

  • pref tight bass, kung meron abot ng budget haha

    I recommend the Soundmagic P11S for 995. Very good for its asking price at hindi pa sya hard to drive.

    Iba-iba sir eh pero hindi ako bass head. I only appreciate bass sa games. Meron ba yung all-rounder? Thanks sa reply.

    Try any of the following:
    - Soundmagic E10S (V shaped)
    - VJJB K4S (warm and smooth)
    - Mi Hybrids Pro (V shaped)
    - KZ ZST (basshead)
    - Adv. Sound M4 (neutral to brightish)
  • Super thanks @officeboy20!!!
  • @roderico

    Thanks for the tip pare. Medyo baliktad kasi ako, kung kailan tumanda saka naging mas sensitive sa sound. I can sleep with earplugs on, kaso kapag naperfect ko yung seal rinig ko tibok ng dibdib ko. Haha. Kaya ang hanap ko magandang seal na in-ear para kahit papaano magandang sound naman marinig ko. Will check FLIPEARS & "tip roll". Pasensya na at baguhan. Yung mga in-ear na wireless (e.g. Samsung) titignan ko rin kasi mas ok walang wires baka matug ng mali habang natutulog. :)
  • @jan_kristopher

    I think if you really want maximum isolation the best way forward is purchasing a pair of custom IEMs. From experience, ang sunod na pinakamalapit sa experience with CIEMs is with foam tips, particularly the Shure Olive Tips. Problem with olive tips is availability; there was a time a couple of years back na madaling makahanap sa mga shops in Manila. Ngayon your best option is to order from Amazon.

    If you want to combine CIEMs with some form of wireless, you may want to consider getting a BT dongle. Alam ko may mga available nang ganyang options. Not totally wireless like Bragi Dash or Samsung IconX but still considerably cuts the length of the wire.
  • @jan_kristopher
    np tol haha basta masaya ka sa ginagawa mo oks yan :D
    incase na mag pagawa ka sa flip ears bro meron din silang BT dongle narin, and meron pang ibang dongle rin sa ibang vendors natin :D

    Try lang ng try ng ibang tips paps na sulit sayo pero feeling ko parang mas sulit na mag ciem ka, Nga lang eh may kamahalan pero sulit naman talaga :D

    Soundmagic P11s?

    saw reviews, looks interesting. sige sir, maghahanap ako. thanks! kung wala, ok na rin yung Urbanite!
  • i'm trying to resist the chord mojo, bnew at $460USD :)
  • ^ Someone is selling his MoJo at HEEP for 21k. Much, much cheaper and more convenient.
  • Maka join nga sa HEEP. Sayang din yun 2K na diff or bnew with 2yr warranty.
  • hello friends, after 5yrs of being together nasira na yung CX-300II ko, bigla na lang di gumagana yung left di ko alam kung bakit. baka kelangan na lang ata nya talaga magpahinga,

    any recommendations on a replacement in ear na flat/balanced?

    dati kase mas prefer ko ma bass pero ngayon naappreciate ko na yung flat/balanced sound siguro tumatanda na din kase? haha! mas naappreciate ko na yung balanced kasi rinig ko lahat!


    thanks in advance mga brader!

    If you're got deeper wallets, then mas maraming options jan hehe
  • Mga sir anong mas mairerecommend niyo Fiio e17k or Audioquest dragonfly black v1.5 para sa hd 598?
  • Meron ba shops na naglalagay uli ng leather coating ng foams ng headphones/headsets? Sayang kasi yung isa kong headset, natuklap na yung pinaka-leather coating niya natira yung foam nalang.
  • @jaibautista/roderico

    Salamat sa tips!

    Done reading, & unfortunately mukhang hindi wise para sa akin at the moment na mag CIEM. Will most likely go with a Shure SE215 kasi ok ang price, ok ang sound quality & comfortable itulog kasi low profile. Parang mahirap naman kung mamahalin agad lalo na't hindi naman audiophile level ang pandinig ko, more of quietness ang habol. Hehe. Will try a friend's Bose QC parin just to see kung masway ako ng active NC.

    By the way, how much tamang price range ng 215? Sa website kasi USD 89 (~4,450) pero may nakita akong sellers na malaki ang ibinaba kaya medyo nakakalito.
  • @jan_kristopher

    If bibili ka ng Shure SE215 make sure to get your unit from an authorized retailer (I think Audiophile/JBL Music are selling units every now and then). Daming nagkalat na "OEM" kuno (i.e., fake) na SE215 nowadays, especially in online shops.
  • TBH I'd rather go for IM70 or E40 instead of SE215

    EDIT: actually for your purpose, kung mas maganda fit ng SE215 then yun na lang pala. Sound-wise though talo SE215

  • Yup yung Urbanite XL na dating bili ko ay 8,500 ngayon 6k na lang sa Lzda
  • @jan around 6k ung shure 215spe. Sa audiophile moa may stocks pa ata sila..
  • Another blind buy nung black friday. TFZ Series 5S. Mababa impedance kaya perfect for smartphone use.

    Still burning it in. Pero I can hear its superiority vs my previous low-fi IEM :) so siguro pasok na ito sa Lowest Price - Mid Tier? :P
  • TBH I'd rather go for IM70 or E40 instead of SE215


    I owned both. Mas maganda ang sound isolation ng SE215. May leakage pa rin ng background noise yung IM170.

    Yup, and mas madali i-fit. Ngayon ko lang binasa yung main reasons niya and for those yeah mas maganda nga se215.
  • @jaibautista

    Copy. Hopefully magkaroon na ng oras soon para makaikut ikot sa mall. Medyo natunugan ko narin na "OEM" kasi pati Bose QC masyadong malayo price sa webiste/authorized reseller. Mabuti ng sigurado at madaling matempt na makatipid lalo na't pasko maraming gastos. Haha.

    @sokrates123

    Thanks for the tip!

    @MrBungle/Desutruction

    Hopefully maging ok 2017 para makaupgrade soon sa mas maganda. Hehe. Nakakatempt kasi smart watch, kaya starter muna sa IEM.
  • Mga sir anong mas ok na dac/amp combo sa dalawa? fiio e17k o audioquest dragonfly black? I will be using it for hd 598 nga pala. Thank you sa sasagot.
  • @jan_kristopher
    nako bro goodluck hirap na yata mag hanap ngayon nun :D. Kung aabutin mo lang ung minimum na 8k pasok yan for ciem ng flipears. Try mo rin punta sa aurem meets try mo mga iems nila tapos paresan mo ng foamtips or combi tips baka ok na sayo ung seal pag ganon :D


    @akosidaniel247
    anong dap gamit mo? Last I've tried di naman ganon ka power hungry si hd 598
  • @roderico
    Sir for computer use and minsan sa ipod and android phone and kung may may mairerecommend po kayo na mas ok sa dalawa 10k below budget sir
  • @akosidaniel247
    I can't comment on both dac/amp na nabanggit since di ko pa na try but you can try and check XD-05 sub 10k siya bro pasok sa budget but I'd recommend you try it first hand.
  • san kayo bumibili ng hard pouches nyo? marami kasi ibang gadgets sa backpack ko, madadaganan lang yung headphones kung walang cover
