So I got the Meteor Mark, have been listening to them for past two days, pretty new experience ❗️ The bass great like I mean always business, voices not super open but still beautiful, treble...Ohh THAT TREBLE ❤️❤️😆 never heard such a piece of paradise or what! But the thing that strikes me the most is the texture of the sound. So much emotional info for me in that textured delicate yet commanding sound❗️Very special tuning...I think they did great, very bold and unique sound ❤️👍🙋♂️

I like thick warm sound. Because I am an audiofile dude since last 30 years. And as a ex music producer. I started with the nost expensive valve amps that still producer best tone. And then from recording tracks that always should be warm and realistic. Because voice always should should have that 200hz to 400 to give the mic that realistic live feeling. So I am happy that you got that iem. I will Try to get it too. All the best

Just saw Zreviews review of Helios and Meteor. He just slayed them completely … Meteor don’t even compete with his $100 set😆❗️🙋♂️😎
@SuperReview Жыл бұрын
Just watched, what he's describing is not too surprising. I haven't heard Rinko, but looking at graphs it looks like a fairly strong vee tune, more constrasty, big DD bass, a tune that will instantly appeal to a lot of people. Meteor is softer, less macro contrast, more upper treble extension, excels at micro contrast, midrange texturing, and timbre of high frequency percussion. If you're not valuing those things, a classic vee signature is easier to enjoy.
@jaroslavfricek7772 Жыл бұрын
I just went to check my Meteor, if I am stupid or what 😆. No, they sound very special and exactly what you just described. I mean I understand little where is he coming from. But not to hear this radical difference, this carefully crafted nuanced sound ❗️That's why you pay $600 and not $100. I feel like something is missing in the perception.Dont know 😊. Zeos considers Helios mehh and Meteor not worth hundred dollars and Triton is world class earphone according to him. Majority of the community celebrates boldness and uniqueness of Helios and Meteor and thinks Triton is very very nice inoffensive earphone for $899. So 😋✌️Have a nice day Mark❗️

Cable connectors are color coded which is not the most straightforward and "foolproof" way to mark them, but if you're not new to the hobby you're most likely familiar with the conventional way it's done, i.e. red is for right channel and blue is for left channel. I like the way Ikko did it with their OH10 - they went even further and ditched the marking for the left channel while leaving only a red marking for the right channel on both cable and the IEM itself. It's more then enough, so to me it's a great example of an elegant simplicity.
@Lead_Foot Жыл бұрын
The issue isn't plugging in the wrong channel, it's plugging into the correct channel but with the pins reversed because there's no pre molded ear hook to indicate which direction it should be plugged in.

I use this daily, actually got interested in this after watching the video and have it for about 6 mths now and its running great. Honestly out of all i tested (about 20-30+) only Symphonium Meteor and Moondrop Variations felt good to me. Moondrop Variation clarity is better IMO but honestly kinda boring. Probably better for female vocal JPOP and instrumental tracks I think? (Also I had bad experiences with their shitty QC with my arias that died in less than a year). Meteor is much more fun to listen and great for FPS games too cos the imaging and soundstage is great and much better for rock and other genres that are good with bass stuff (obviously). Chose meteor in the end and never regretted it since.

It's pretty different vs. the Dusk, I wouldn't call it an upgrade, no. Meteor is warmer, bigger head stage and less distinct imaging. Dusk has cleaner midrange and stronger imaging. Both have a lot of bass.
