If you play with EQ, you quickly learn how to add depth for your ears. I almost always tick 2-3k down, 200-400hz up. And you need to do that on the source you use as it changes with devices. I don't think it is planars that are flat, it is the tuning that makes them sound flat.

The missing bit is how the bass reacts or how you perceive it. As I said, wasn't a fan of it out of the box and I think the dampening method adds more emphasis.

I will eventually hear Explorer but I think they are similar.

I was thinking the same thing, love my explorer and was wondering if this is similar but single planar

I think their resin tends to be expensive, they would need to 3d print much like Galileo at that price. I think they wanted something special for their anniversary.

Makes sense.... Thanks 👍

MP145 did a better job at treble control without as much dampening. You could also use MP145 without the tip which was a more open sound

Right, you understand the issue. Everyone wanted something between S12 Pro and S08. Easier on the ears but still resolves like a planar.

Timeless was up there in price, but it can still resolve like much more expensive sets. Someday we will see the Timeless 2

I will say kinda perfect and alluded to why. Even at higher volumes or even with EQ, the foam still gets in the way on resolve. You will get farther along at 85db but you can void the warranty and look at the foam situation to dial it in.

@@PaulWasabiiwhat foam?

@@PaulWasabii you mean. Filter inside? Or placing a filter?

​@@PaulWasabii Lord knows I adore the sound of my Hidizs MP145 earphones, but unfortunately, I cannot achieve a proper seal in my left ear, and so, it is time for me to pass them on to someone who can put them to good use. And, because I am a planar magnetic driver fanatic, I plan to order a pair of these Letshuoer S08 as soon as they are available in my usual online shop (Lazada), or at least when they can be bought using discount vouchers.

Vegan is that some sort of new chicken?? 😅

@@shamelessplace111, so funny... ....NOT.

@@ReverendDr.Thomas hey man am just poking at you a bit ... No harm intended

​@@shamelessplace111 You are urged to become VEGAN, since carnism (the destructive ideology that supports the use and consumption of animal products, especially for “food”) is arguably the foremost existential crisis.🌱

Its the compliment to S12 which has the tech and treble, S08 is the more natural but less tech and treble.

Don’t buy this if you have t10, you can play around with filters and tuning to get the t10 to tune like this. The t10 for me is also a bit wider and taller in soundstage with better techs but the s08 has a bit more forward vocals and is more natural sounding

Fuck kz. Never buy that shit. You'll 100% have issues.

Very different sound than PR1 Pro. PR1P is quite bright, this is the opposite

I didn't realize the Chu 2 had a removeable nozzle. I wish I hadn't sold mine. :(

@@ReverendDr.Thomas The Chu II has a lower brass nozzle fixed to the shell and "bottle cap" brass cap screw on where the filter mesh is under the metal grill.

@@m_yy_m Brass doesn't turn green if you store the Chu in a box with a little pack of silica gel to absorb humidity. Can buy these packs by the dozen for all your IEMs

@@lasttempoinparis Thank you! Incidentally, would you believe that, only a matter of a few seconds after reading your comments, I spotted an advertisement for silica gel? 🙂

I won't advocate it as you void the warranty, but the foam isn't hard to reach. Loosen it up or replace with less dense material
