Hello , thanks for the review . How do these compare to the s12 pro ? are they on the same level in technicalities ? and what about tuning wise ? they seem to have some similarities from the description . Fun days for this rabbit hole , keep em coming .

@HobbyTalk

I like these more than s12 pro myself. These have more bass to balance out the upper mids and treble. Depends if you want that warmth in the low end or not. About same techs to me.

Got this set, Love it! Tuning can be a double-edged knife, but I can say most of the time it isn't a problem. LOVE these micro planar drivers, full or true planar drivers sound way too cold or technical for my tastes. Micros help return much of the warmth while retaining much of the technical performance. Still, excellent buy. Even better if gotten on sale, totally agree with this review.

Totally feel you with the double edge knife thing… I feel that haha

Curiosity got the better of me and I now have the Phoenixcall. I agree with everything you said. It pushes the envelope of what's comfortable to me in the upper regions as well but the bass definitely helps to balance it out. The separation on this thing is excellent and the overall package is worth it alone. I'm looking 👀 at Falcon Ultra for 11/11 and then... Meteor. 🙂

@@Mykeoguns I personally think the Phoenixcall's fairly unique driver configuration gives it an edge over most offerings in this price range but there are a lot of iems I haven't heard so take that with a grain of salt, I guess.

Tip rolling is very important if you want to get the best sound quality out of these! After a while I think I found the perfect match for my ears: the Fiio HS18, followed by the TRN T tips. Whizzer SS20 were also good but I think I should get a smaller set because the M size is a bit big for my ears and keeps moving. BGVP W01 are slightly large too (they're great on the CVJ Mei though), KBear 07 sound a bit dry and Tri Clarion's don't sound bad but they don't stay firm to the nozzle. The KZ Starline and BGVP 08 yet to be tested but I may end up keeping the HS18

I used different tips than stock myself :) yea

Most IEMs just slap on a name or a logo and call it a day on the design. It’s nice to see the brands that put thought into how their product looks and not just the sound. Tired of seeing amazing sounding IEMs that look like poop.

How is this set compared to the likes of simgot EM6L, quintet and performer 8? I think all these sets that I mentioned are almost on the same level in the area of detail retrieval.

Thank you :) yeah, hook-x is a cult classic favorite so I might get some crap for that haha but I dig it!

I'm kind of torn on this one. Sounds like the upper mids and treble wouldn't really be my kind of thing but it does look awesome and probably considerably different from anything else I have. Maybe I'll wait for a sale. 🤔 Thank you for another great review! 👍

@HobbyTalk

Upper mids and treble are spicy! But it does have decent enough bass to balance that out. Just has that mid scoop, depends if that’s your thing… but ya! It’s a looker! Thanks for dropping by :)

How good would these be as endgame IEMS for a variety of music but especially for rock and metal? I already have Hexa but I'm confused between these and EM6L.
