    0:16 because that's exactly what it is? It's based on plenty of research (by perhaps the biggest potential beneficiary of market growth due to simplification at the expense of product quality and variety), but many people's preferences will differ, and that's a fact. It's like reviewing a t-shirt based on its conformity to the average body shape.

      Perhaps check out the Simgot EW300. There are three flavors: stock, DSP and the HBB Collab. All of them are under $80. I recommend Audio Amigo's review, it is rather comprehensive. Also there is the Moondrop Aria 2. It's $90, but the package is upscale in comparison. Also you should be able to get it on sale with the holidays coming up. Paul Wasabi has all of these squigs along with the DaVinci for direct comparison.

    How would you say the bass presentation on this compares to the DUSK? I want something quite bassy and with impact, definitely warm, but not muddy. Hard to achieve but I've heard people absolutely love the bass on the davinci.

    • @sidesaladaudio
      @sidesaladaudio 7 днів тому

      DaVinci is more like a thick thump I guess. Kicks have power behind it and a lot of energy. Dusk has a little more snap behind it, but less energy. Dusk does also have a bit more treble though which does add to the definition of bass, but at the same time is more likely to be a problem area. I’m usually tolerant to treble, but even dusk is toeing the line for me. I think dusk sounds better overall other than the treble, but DaVinci is safer if you’re not going to EQ

    • @RinaSheepdog

      @@sidesaladaudio Appreciate the detailed description! Currently driving the PA02s, and the next bracket I'm mainly interested in DaVinci, DUSK, and a little known BGVP DMA. Kind of hard to compare BCDs to anything if you haven't heard them before I guess though, and DaVinci is a little cheaper. Seems like the right idea, although the comfort on Dusk also seems like it'd be superior.

    I also have a Moondrop May. And as soon as I tested the phone on another DAC dongle I noticed that in addition to the noise problem mentioned, there is also a bit of distortion that is sometimes more noticeable, sometimes less. I got much more interesting results using the May on other dongles and controlling the DSP through third-party apps.

    • @sidesaladaudio

      The DSP cable is a DAC as well. Personally I like it in analog with a dongle dac, since it doesn’t have those artifacts that way. There has been some firmware updates to the moondrop app that is supposed to improve the DSP cable to reduce artifacts, but I’m on IOS now, so I can’t use it

They have that planar metallic sound quality, but not as much as usual, while the T10 are closer to a dynamic driver. The F1 Pro cable is quite good and also look very nice in comparison to the T10. Foam tips worked best for me. No Theme Reviews did a great review of the F1 Pro if you're curious.

    Have gotten these and have been using them for about a week now. I have basically been using it purely on the DSP cable. Personally I feel no distortion even at really low volumes which is usually when I’m watching videos. And sometimes when I’m listening to music while doing other things I’ll also turn down the volume. I’m not sure if it’s just unit difference or if I’m not capable enough to notice it but I have been really really loving it and I don’t think I’ll be upgrading from it for a really really long time.
