BEYERDYNAMIC XELENTO WIRELESS REVIEW
March 29, 2019 Comments Off on BEYERDYNAMIC XELENTO WIRELESS REVIEW
“The IEMs are lightweight and comfortable, and the weight of the aluminium battery pack is quickly and easily mitigated with the attached clothing clip.The inline cable remote worked fine with both Apple and Android devices and didn’t get in the way during extended listening sessions.
When switching the headphones on, a smooth voice guides you through the pairing process, and the LED light on the cable will indicate current pairing status. Once paired, the IEMs had no trouble connecting and disconnecting to my source device, and I didn’t experience any dropouts or audio issues. ”
Jomo Audio Salsa Review

“According to the catalog, this is a Tidal Purple Mist design which is one complete make-up including purple translucent shells and an internal flake ‘scatter’ that covers the body and faceplate. I suspect it is a premium request and may cost a bit more. Something I will try to flesh out in the main review. For now, it is a cracking acrylic hollow body shell design that the camera picked up quite well.”
Final E5000 Universal-Fit Earphone $279 Review
March 25, 2019 Comments Off on Final E5000 Universal-Fit Earphone $279 Review
“In my listening experiments the E5000 had a rich and solid midrange above par in its price class. Curtis Mayfield’s “Underground” from Roots [Curtom] is an excellent indicator of how the E5000 can move you to the music, putting a substantial bite and body to the midband groove. The treble, which I felt was a bit harsh out of the box, mellowed and became truly outstanding by the end of my tests. I would say the E5000 does just about everything well. Sure, I could have used a wider soundstage or maybe a more aggressive bass line on some hard-driving funky tunes. Who couldn’t? The E5000 is already a fantastically well-rounded earphone, and it’s scary to think that I am only just now in sight of the 200-hour break-in mark. Things are bound to get even better!”
NOBLE AUDIO KHAN $2,399 REVIEW
March 23, 2019 Comments Off on NOBLE AUDIO KHAN $2,399 REVIEW
“Khan uses a ten millimeter dynamic driver for lows, four balanced armatures for mids and high mids, and a ten millimeter ceramic piezo electric super tweeter. The interesting thing about the piezo and the dynamic is, that they sit on top of each other. The low end DD is placed above the ceramic tweeter, and both share one stainless sound tube.
Noble is not very keen on disclosing too many technical details on the Khan, other than that it’s sensitive enough to be used with smartphones and digital audio players, but that really counts for almost all IEMs. Khan does pair very well with my gear, but due to its nature of design, it proves to be slightly harder to drive than other monitors in my inventory.”
Shure KSE1200SYS electrostatic in-ear headphone system Review
March 18, 2019 Comments Off on Shure KSE1200SYS electrostatic in-ear headphone system Review
“A problem with armature-based IEMs, such as my Ultimate Ears 18 Pros, is that their vibrating reeds start to run out of excursion with high levels of low-frequency tones, producing “doubling” (second-harmonic distortion). This was not the case with either the KSE1500 or KSE1200SYS earpieces, which played the low-frequency, 1/3-octave warble tones on my Editor’s Choice (CD, Stereophile STPH016-2) cleanly and with full weight down to 32Hz, provided the sleeves were making good seals with my ear canals. The combination of low-frequency clarity and weight in “Happiness Is Easy,” from Talk Talk’s The Colour of Spring (DSD64 file ripped from SACD, EMI 591452), made the sparse interjections from Danny Thompson’s double bass and Alan Gorrie’s electric bass sound suitably forceful. No, in terms of low-frequency weight, the in-ear Shures still couldn’t match my long-term headphone reference, Audeze’s LCD-Xes, driven in balanced mode by Ayre Acoustics’ EX-8 integrated amplifier. However, the over-ear LCD-Xes weigh my head down after the first couple of hours; the lightweight Shures remained comfortable throughout far longer listening sessions.”
HIDIZS MERMAID MS1 AND MS4 $150 REVIEW
March 11, 2019 Comments Off on HIDIZS MERMAID MS1 AND MS4 $150 REVIEW
“For the money, both earphones pack a punch. The Kickstarter sets the MS1 to 99$ (regular 149$) but would be a steal at full price. And the MS4 competes well against pricier earphones, both at its Kickstarter discount and its full price.Eventually, the cable prongs may wiggle themselves out of the earphones. Otherwise, both are well finished and well-built and should look good in years. Their cables should outlast the market.”
