Headphones

Truthear Hexa.

These are my first IEM purchases since high school! I got 3 or 4 which all died on me within a year (either the left or right side would lose basically all volume - I assume it was a cord issue but none of them had replaceable cords) and I gave up on them after that.

But now pretty much anything decent will have a detachable cord so . . . progress!

I got the Dawn Pro as well.

As for IEMs:

7hz Salnotes Zero

Tangzu Wan'er S.G. (I know the name's origin but I'm sorry - I see it and I think "wanker" and I'm not even British)

Dunu Titan S.

Not technically related since I bought them on AliExpress last week but also picked up the KZ ZST Pro X and the VE Monks.

I auditioned both the pr2 and rosefinch. Rosefinch is wayy better in terms of build and sound. From where I come from, they cost about the same but rosefinch comes with a modular cable (you can change the jack from 3.5mm to other jacks) and the it is not as harsh as Pr2.

I simply bought a chifi DAC. Made by a small vendor.

I got: Truthear x crinacle Reds + shiroi and Beyerdynamic DT 900 pro x + DAC cable

Got a bunch of other stuff too, but it wasn't from the 11.11 sale!

I had some extra rewards points available on Amazon, so I ordered the Truthear Hexa. I’ve found myself using IEMs more recently over my full sized headphones.

Sennheiser momentum 4 from 400 to 250. Had to do it

I also bought the moondrop dawn pro and a pair of Truthear Zero (blue)

Got Xenns Top for my endgame and holy shit its phenomenal

An Aria 2, despite the not so favorable reviews, I just wanna give it a try.

Another month of not being homeless

A new MQA-CD called A Shade Of Blue by the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio. 11% off. Does it count?

Nothing, wanted another set of Holas as spares but they have disappeared 🤔

Got the Fiio KA5 for $80. I hesitated to buy it and thought that I missed it, but on 12.11 the discount was still there so I pulled the trigger.

Focal Bathys for £150 off. not sure if it was technically part of singles day but I got it on the 11th lol.

Yesterday I ordered a FiiO M11S, around $450, I am still not sure to be honest, I hope I didn't make a mistake, some users here say a DAP is a waste of money, but other users told me a DAP is better than all android phones and should not listen to them :/

HE400SE (non-stealth version) for 55€ on AE.

a truthear hexa

SMSL SH9 cannot wait to plug it in

I got a fiio btr15!

I bought moondrop chu 2 and yincrow x6. I was thinking to get fiio fd11, but these have proprietary 2 pin connection and a weird fit. Overall great budget picks I guess

Thorn BB58 with the 369 dial.

I realised my IER-Z1R make a killer combo with dx220 when I put amp9 into it, completely stopped trying to make bluetooth amps connected to my phone happen, and as a result I might be selling stuff in November instead of buying. Xd 🤣

Current portable endgame status reached, let's see how long that lasts.

Aful Magic One and Aful Performer 5

From your hauls, can anyone recommend a good pair of IEMs for under $100?

I picked up the Dunu SA6 MK2

i got a mini pelican case for my 7hz zero

Mojo 2 + campfire audio cascara

I got Fiio FD5😄

I got a truthear hexa!

I bought 3 1more Sonoflows for my sister and my parents, $45 each and free Delivery!

Nothing. Didn't realize 11/11 sales was even a thing and if I did I wouldn't buy anything. I never do on that special sale days.

Nothing because there was nothing attractive for me personally.

Looking out for a Denon headphone on black friday but if there won't be a good rebate I will just buy a Audio Technica ATH-M50x

KZ PR2 for £23 lol. Hoping its the version with better treble, but if not ill just EQ it. For £20 i wanted to give planar a shot

I got two things during the sale:

• Moondrop Variations
  • Mainly got them for when I'm forced back into the office here soon.
  • Can't use my ZMF Atticus as it is all open seating and the pelican hardcase looks like one for a pistol. That and without assigned seating/cubicle, I can't leave them overnight like I did my previous job prior to the pandemic.
  • Will use them with my Pioneer XDP-100R which I got years ago.
• SMSL AD18
  • Will replace my Schii Modi DAC and the Nakamichi Receiver 3 I'm using as an amp for my two Bose 301 speakers. (Receiver and Speakers were given to me by my folks as they were collecting dust.)

Got them both for ~$470, not including tax, thanks to the coupon codes and the small amount of coins I had.
