Tip of the day.
If you are using an amplifier, please do not on your equalizer or else it will distort the original music that you suppose to hear.

2. change the device of listening
3. change songs
4. check is the any blockage in the nozzle
5. change side listen

see if it still exist.

It is something like, in the first impression, xp2 will sounds flatter, more bass... xp3 has a slight v shape, more details. I would categorize xp3 is for more patient people as they require more burn in time.

What about XP1? Is XP1 comparable to Hippo White and Hippo VB?

I get the feeling XP1 is so underrated.. ohwai  sad.gif

walabies, so I guessed XP3 is always the fastest one got out of stock, no?  biggrin.gif
*
Yeah, xp3 finishes fastest.
The reason is that in this sub RM200 region, people love to listen to more audiophile music, some has more details to be dug.
XP1 is a fun IEM, I can listen for it with the intention of entertaining myself.

how does this compare with senn cx215 series ?
I'm abit annoyed with the tangling with the cx215... flat cable type should solve my problem tongue.gif

listen vocal, ambient stuff mostly.
*
You might have the solution.

QUOTE(azyune @ Dec 1 2012, 09:19 PM)
How much XP1 bass amount compare to beats solo/tour?
Does XP1 lose quite noticeable details compared to the other two models?

I've been thinking since this XP series emphasize on bass strength, why not go all out with XP1.  biggrin.gif If want details I might opt for something else that good in that aspect.  hmm.gif
*
XP1 bass is different from the beats one. Beats bass are rather uncontrolled, dispersed while xp1 focus more on mid bass but still tight.
Quantity wise to be frank beats wins all out but their frequency are all tainted with bass.

Anyone did a comparison between xp3 and sony xba1?

I have an xba1 right now, it is worth changing to xp3?

Thanks smile.gif

If you are looking for bass improvement xp3 has more ohmp.

xba1 focuses more on the details.

Yeah I did some reading, looks like these particular IEM characteristics are the main cause. Now I tried inserting slowly while open my mouth to give more room to air to compress  laugh.gif
Tried double flange but didnt like losing the bass intensity and also the insecure feeling of the buds hanging too far worrying it might come off anytime soon.
So its safe to assume this is normal case. Sometimes I did feel the balance is off by ~5%-10% more to R. I hope the driver itself is not at fault. While at it I tried few other tip sizes and some of them give more balanced output at certain position means good isolation is another factor here..

Looks like have to consider Hippo Foam after all hmm.gif
Thanks~ Im enjoying it much wub.gif
*
Does it happen to all the songs?
Actually some of the songs are recorded left right not balanced. It is quite normal. Some is due to player etc... many factors...
If it really a very huge difference do give us a beep.
Hope you enjoy your XP!

Thanks. I saw u listed Wowloud. Anyone here bought from them before? How's their service?

They currently have Xmas promotion for the XP series. Only RM 179. Im thinking of getting the XP3. Is it safe to get from them or should i just go Jaben?
*
yes wowloud is taking stocks from us. it is original.

QUOTE(mrsu @ Dec 17 2012, 06:47 AM)
Regarding the cracking noise when you insert the xp inside your ears,it might because of the ear tip,and XP1 and XP2 has this problem as XP3 dont have this kind of sound,if you are away,XP3 ear tip's nozzle hole(the silicon) is smaller than those from xp1 and xp2,so the ear tip might not squeeze as much as xp1/2,hence no cracking sound.

That is what I observed. The cracking sound is only exist when you push it inside the ears right?
*
There are a lot of factors causing the cracking sound, especially IEMs. It might be even your physical, you ear canel shape causing the vibrations etc. Anyway, you can switch left and right see it is your ear causing the problems.



QUOTE(trisx @ Dec 17 2012, 03:43 PM)
how does XP2 compared to klipsch S4 or Sony MH1C?  still deciding between these 3.

and yeah my playlist is rock song n dubstep all the way biggrin.gif

You definitely should try XP2, cos... it is cheaper, no harm to try...

Not only when touching, it also noticeable when moving around, like when head is bobbing up and down /left to right. Tried using foam, albeit DIY one. The flange/air sound is still there and only on the right earpiece.  The sound is more noticeable when playing song with continuos mid to high treble sound.  Any way, went to Jaben today to let them have a look on it and see what can be done. Now just wait for the result.  In the meantime, its back to PL50 for me, of which I really like, except for the lacking of bass.
*
Did you tried on some of the foams?

My XP3 is now set aside for my daily EPH-100, might give it a listen sometimes, I didn't have XP2 nor XP1 since I'm always looking for better quality IEM and EPH-100 was my choice before I go my XP3.

Maybe u can listen back after some burn in?

Just got my XP2 recently. It's pretty nice for my first set of IEM's, but I can't get over how sibilant (the sharp *tiss* sounds) it is. Do I have to burn it in or something? EQ? DRC?  rclxub.gif
*
First yes you should burn in.
Second, which player you are using? What type of format of songs?
Do you close all the EQ?
