Best sounding iem I own
So I have a lot of iems, I’m a little crazy. Several I have were expensive, 2 that I have were very expensive. These sound better than all of them. No joke, the fit is just ok, not great. The cable is ok, not great. But the sound.... oh my goodness the sound. I don’t know how to put it into words. These are the most natural sounding headphones I’ve heard. They are to me at least, a pretty flat tuning... they simply sound like the music. It’s like they aren’t a headphone... it’s like the music is getting wired straight to your brain. There is no emphasis anywhere in the tuning. It’s just the music. And they are incredibly revealing and detailed and yet at the same time very forgiving of poorly recorded music. I don’t know how they did it for $160 bucks. I haven’t taken them out since I got them, and when I put in different iems, or put on different headphones they all sound off to me in comparison. Highly, highly recommended. I could sell the rest of my stuff and just keep these and be very happy. Of course I won’t do that, because I’m a crazy person... but they make me feel like I could.

Hi-Fi_LifeI have several different things but honestly because I’m often moving around a lot I mostly use the dragonfly red. I love the dragonfly red because it fits my lifestyle, it’s so portable... anyways it’s not super powerful and it sounds great with the p1. You have to turn it up significantly louder than you do with let’s say my se846... but it has plenty of juice. I think the FiiO player would work just fine. People say they need a little power, and they do... but any decent little dap or dac amp should do.

RadiocalmThanks! Se846? Cool! Can you compare sound of P1 with Shure? I have AKG K3003, they have plenty of bass but not very accurate treble if we compare them to Fiio FH5. For example FH5 very good for vocal, some kind of jazz and opera with articulate voices but I just cant listen on them old metal (Edge Of Sanity), AKG has much wider scene (not as accurate) and much brighter sound, it makes me more interested in music. I expect from P1 good vocals, highs and good separation of instruments and acceptable bass

RadiocalmI have a boatload of IEMs as well, and my favorite had been the KZ Zx10 Pro, but I recently pulled out my Martin Logan Mikros 70s and I have to say, for many things, I like the Mikros better. They have limitations...rolled off highs for one, they get congested when provided with a complex signal (such as a classical orchestra at full bore), and there's a bit of bloom to the bass, but they are so natural sounding that they kind of make you pay attention. The KZ's by comparison, as well as my Sundaras, sound a little boomy, tizzy and less natural.
