ADL EH008 Dual Dynamic Driver Earphones Review
December 9, 2015 Comments Off on ADL EH008 Dual Dynamic Driver Earphones Review
. Listening to the piano, the EH008 was tuneful, natural and textured and preserved the glow of the woody body of the instrument. With the B&W C5, the piano was somewhat simplistic, sounding lighter and having less reverb, while through the Shure SE535 the clarity of the piano notes rose to a higher level, taking on its own space and bringing with it a bounty of detail. Moving to the percussion, the EH008 provided a more detailed and revealing rendition of brushwork than the C5 with cymbals that were subdued but feathery, the C5 sounding rather simplistic in comparison, while the SE535 provided the greatest insight into the strokes, motions and textures. Miles’ trumpet with the ADL EH008, though short of the SE535 in ultimate transparency, openness, dynamics and detail, did a wonderful job of embodying this instrument with its brassy warmth and inherent bite. And, unlike the C5, the EH008 provided the brassy texture of the instrument and its throat tones. This went also for the saxophone, where the EH008 conveyed the instrument with authoritative beauty, sounding full, rich and lush – a captivating experience. In all of this the EH008 was able to bring across the emotion of the song, the relaxed melancholy that has given me such a love for the piece.”
AMBIENT ACOUSTICS AM-6 HIREZ REVIEW
December 5, 2015 Comments Off on AMBIENT ACOUSTICS AM-6 HIREZ REVIEW
” The bass seems to advance towards the sub bass, probably maxing its presence just under 100Hz and holding itself from a steep roll off well. Because of that the deep bass is dynamic and textured and shows its emphasis with it extracting any bass frequencies it can find an driving them a lingering reproduction that can be felt and heard. The bass does have a lack of speed but it certainly seems on purpose and while I think it creates an exaggerated timbre that is certainly richer and bolder than life. That feeling continues into a very baritone midrange that loves Michael Bublé and some mellow blues. It is almost seductive.”
TRINITY AUDIO ENGINEERING TECHNE REVIEW
December 1, 2015 Comments Off on TRINITY AUDIO ENGINEERING TECHNE REVIEW
” The inclusion of a right angle adapter is a very nice touch and something that I wish other companies would also include. The final extra you get in the Trinity Techne box is of course the small metal cylindrical tube containing the interchangeable filter tips. There are filters there so you can fine tune your listening the way you want such as enhancing the bass, displaying more treble or even to create a more neutral response. I found that with the bass tips installed they were most to my taste for how I would personally use the Techne (as a dedicated bass canon) but if you were using the Techne as your sole earphone I highly recommend the middle filter set due to its versatility. ”
ALCLAIR CURVE REVIEW
November 29, 2015 Comments Off on ALCLAIR CURVE REVIEW
” The Curve is built out of plastic. One side is gray plastic, the other is transparent. It looks plastic, and it feels plastic. The look certainly doesn’t scream high end, but then neither does the price ($250), so no problem there. More important is that, even though it does look and feel like plastic, it looks and feels like solid plastic. It may not be a modern art masterpiece, but it is functional”
ORIOLUS 4-DRIVER HYBRIDS – Review
November 26, 2015 Comments Off on ORIOLUS 4-DRIVER HYBRIDS – Review
” Heaping blanket praise on a midrange-meaty earphone is against a trance-head’s morals. I’m about to sin big time. Oriolus spits contrasty, speedy, wide mids. They shoot straight out of Oriolus’s strong, thwacky bass, never to get mired by either bass or high mids. They rise fastest and highest just below the shininess where mids go meet the highs. There’s a bit of wet reverb that keeps female vocals fractionally hanging on. And male vocals are bite authoritatively. The entire band is wide, relatively deep, and round out an impressive 3D image.”
Noble Audio 6C $1099 Review
November 24, 2015 Comments Off on Noble Audio 6C $1099 Review
“The custom Noble 6C shells are very well designed and quite beautiful in person, pictures simply do not do them justice. The medical grade acrylic used for the shells is of very high quality and gives the 6C a lightweight feel and a glossy smooth finish. Like a fancy hand-blown glass ornament or pipe, the color work just pops right out you and looks even more impressive under the light. The psychedelic nebula-like blend of red, yellow, blue, and violet hues is tastefully done with a metallic texture that adds to the overall effect. The faceplates are seamlessly connected to the shells to form one smooth coherent piece of art. Like a Rothko or Cubist painting, the faceplates contrast the smooth flowing nature of the shells with abstract bands of pink, black, lavender, and white, adding to the energy and emotion of the design. The Wizard certainly lives up to his reputation as an artist and designer as the artwork is simply phenomenal ”
Vision Ears VE5 CIEM Earphones Review
November 21, 2015 Comments Off on Vision Ears VE5 CIEM Earphones Review
” First off, it must be mentioned that the VE5 is a special breed with an unusual signature that Vision Ears have purposefully created to fill in the gap between their model U/V-shaped models such as the VE2/VE4/VE6x1 and the more balanced models such as the VE3/VE6x2. The tonality of the VE5, therefore, is very intriguing and can be more associated to have an n-shaped frequency response where mids are central to the mix. While some people claim that this model is bright owing to its “crystal-clear” mids and treble, I have found that this model leans more towards a neutral tone despite the rather mid-centric approach.”

“Dynamically, they’re limited. Instruments and voices are pushed to the front, but that upfront, immediate character makes them a straightforward listen.”
Westone UM Pro 10 REVIEW
November 18, 2015 Comments Off on Westone UM Pro 10 REVIEW
“Power levels are excellent. The Westone UM Pro 10 can therefore be used with all types of audio source without volume levels sounding too weak. However, there is a certain level of distortion. In fact, this rears its head even before you reach moderate volume levels. This marked presence of distortion is a real problem when using these headphones in places with a lot of background noise, even if Westone’s passive s”
