the reason moondrop concerto has a non detachable cable is that xmems drivers requires a special voltage that normal source cannot deliver hence no regular cable
Yep! I forgot to mention that but this is also why the HiBy Xeno uses a non-detachable cable. Still, I think it'll be a turn-off for a lot of people used to detachable cables
@@UnfaehigerKanal how many iem cables break in your personal experience ? in my 5 years of iem usage i only experienced metal nozzle that unglued and a 2 pin connector that unglued
I know you mentioned that you will soon be reviewing the Yu Xuan Ji, but since the silver color is about to sell out, I wanted to ask a quick question. You say they are shiny, but I would like to know if they are similar in style to the Rose Technics Star City 5 Pro or Truthear Hexa?
@@obodioreviews Hmm. I mainly use them for solo piano; some jazz and alternative. I think I’ll keep the hexa- thanks for the advice! I’ve been enjoying the Apple Lossless + dongle dac experience with them and like the tuning. I’ve been noticing detail I never knew was there in a lot of my favorite songs (Joep Beving, Moccio). Some of the new stuff using XMEMS are definitely interesting to me as well (I’m a computer eng student that has studied MEMS stuff before) but I think my next step up will be in a year or two anyways. I’ll enjoy these!
@@obodioreviews That's great! I can get one for my stereo speakers, connected permanently to the DAC, so I wouldn't have to get up every time I change the song.
Short answer is no, EA1000 and Origin have a fuller and richer tone with better coherency. Concerto shows potential especially with its details but not quite there
@@obodioreviews what about simgot iems? is it better than ea500lm or supermix 4 or ea1000? or kiwi ears quintet\ aful performer 5? Did u try the dsp settings on kadenz ?(As I am planning to use it in dsp mode only) . and is the difference between origin and kadenz big? sorry for asking too many questions. a

@@obodioreviews agree, wired xmems won't take off until they can make it work with the lower voltage of a audio signal, for tws no problem though
They could still had done it with a special/proprietary connector at least, but no we have to throw out the entire thing when the cable breaks

@@amanieux Very good point, I threw out two IEM cable after using them roughly but even then they didn't give in.
Thanks so much for all you could really talk about and what you could only tease about
Need to toss in Truthear tags after Softears and before Moondrop
Thanks for the round up!

In terms of build? No. The Yu Xuan Ji is pure metal
@@obodioreviews Hello, no, no, in terms of tunning.
Marvelous show overview! Thanks for sharing! 😃👍🎶🎵
What was your favourite pick from all of SIAS? I found Truthear Pure as intriguing.
Probably the Melodic Artification Alter Ego. It's imperfectly perfect for my tastes
@@obodioreviews I had similar experience with it. It's not perfect but it has something addictive.
Hey(: did u get to try the new moondrop tws MOCA?
No sadly
Is tia trio is better than softears enigma in your opinion?
Not entirely, but I do prefer the treble of the Trio and the timbre of Enigma
What do you think about the truthear zero 2 blue if u tried it
Didn't try it, sadly
Damn, I bought Hexa last week. I can still return; should I do so and wait for the pure??
Nah, I still think Hexa is good. But if you want something more natural and warmer sounding, maybe go for that return haha

@@obodioreviewsany guesses when the hexa 2 will get released? I'm really interested with it
What about truthhear zero blue 2??
Didn't get to try that, sorry
Does the R1 has USB output?
Yep
@@obodioreviews That's great! I can get one for my stereo speakers, connected permanently to the DAC, so I wouldn't have to get up every time I change the song.
Hehehe hiby R1 is cute
is kadenz comparable to something like ea1000 or tanchjim origin

No FatFreq? Hmm 🤔
I don't remember if Fatfreq visited the event, but I may have just missed them
is that the ATH-AVA500 in the back ground? will you be reviewing it? i cant seem to find a single English review on it 🥲
Damn sharp eyes! I'm a little busy with other products but I'm definitely covering the AVA500 soon!
