vaisasJudging by the whopping 8 units sold in 2 weeks, I’ll assume this product was a flop. Looks like a generic “custom” iem. I’ll pass, stick to a reputable brand.

League544Reputable brand? You're looking right at one dude. Toneking's other offerings have proved very worthy such as the T88K or the 'budget' Nine Tail.

AudioNinjaphileSorry, this small-time nobody brand nobody knows about, that has terrible reviews, not only this website but also other websites is not reputable by my definition.

League544If that's what you choose to believe, then it's sad to say that you are living inside your own bubble. If you actually did considerable research on Toneking that didn't just fit your confirmation bias, you'd realize how wrong your opinions are. But please, do tell me where all the "terrible reviews" are, I'm quite intrigued to read them (as if there were many reviews to begin with).
And before you blatantly accuse me as a "Toneking salesman" (LOL!), I'll have you know that I personally (and proudly) own both the Toneking Nine Tail and recently the T88K, which the latter is a hefty $300+ IEM.
Again, if you actually did your research on either of these IEMs, you wouldn't be saying claptrap.
Granted, there aren't many reviews on these IEMs to begin with, but at the very least read Prime Audio's review on the Nine Tail. And if you still remain skeptical, then read my own review.
As for the T88K, they outperform every single IEM I have ever owned in terms of mids. I own the Kanas Pro, Shouer Tape, BGVP DMG, LZ A6, Kbear TRI I3, just to name a few within the $100-250 range, and none of them will ever reach the resolution or realism that the T88K's mids offers. The Nine Tail's mids are the same story, only that they lack the resolution from the T88K. I have not done a review for them yet, but Joker's review pretty much sums up my sentiments.
Really, pretty much all Toneking IEMs have highly competent mids. That is their forte and their primary selling point. If you buy a Toneking IEM, you are buying for its sweet luscious mids. The only exception to that is their planar IEM.
And as for QC, well I'd hate to break it to you but you can't expect perfect QC on any chi-fi IEM. The Shouer Tape for sure was notorious for bad QC. If anything, the only bad thing about Toneking IEMs are its reliance on MMCX plugs. They should've ditched that shoddy interface and opted for a 2-pin connection instead. Other than that, they are as premium-ly built as any other resin-shell IEM of a similar price range.
In conclusion, you are wrong. Sure, you can make the old "sound is subjective!" argument, but at least I am coming from real experience with two Toneking IEMs. What experience do you have with Toneking? Judging by your other recent comment, I am guessing none.

More bass!
I currently have the the HD 6XX, which sound great but, I'm am looking to upgrade the power of the bass as i really enjoy punchy low end EDM music. Any suggestions in the $200-$300 price range would be awesome.

Trying to add Topping LA90D amp to Topping A9D preamp
Any help would be appreciated...I added an amp to my streamer, dac, headphone amp/preamp system and am now not getting any music through the headphone jacks on the preamp - the specifics: Wiim Pro Plus - optical connection to - Topping D50 iii dac - TSR to XLR connection to - Topping A9D headphone amp/preamp (all worked fine as a headphone amp until I tried adding:) - XLR connection to - Topping LA90 D amp. Amp switches are set to bypass, stereo, low gain. In this configuration, I am not getting any music to either my SE or XLR headphone jacks. I made sure I switched the A9D to "preamp" and "xlr" modes. I have no idea what I might be overlooking or missing...any thoughts would be deeply appreciated! Thank you.

Mic not working pc38x
I just got my pc38x in the mail today and the out put is quiet but fine and I'm happy. But the mic will not work when on my Xbox series and I was wondering if this issue can be resolved or if the head set is not compatible with Xbox.
