BA has crushed Dynamic smile.gif

How about ACS-T1 vs ES3X ? smile.gif
Very curious...

Back to topic.

Look similar to iBasso's and others's amp casing....
example, iBassa D10 dimension = 55 x 21 x 104 mm

Do take some more pictures from different angles; side, back, ...

compare to acs-t1 is laidback but this is more neutral and more fast compare to it
ue11 is much more bass but this is more wider imaging and layering

I would like to attest to PCWork's products and services as he's a perfectionist and really spends time to make sure all his stuff are of the best workmanship and quality. If you ever meet up with PCWork you can always see the passion he has for all his works.. Especially when he transplanted my darth's voice coils.. He made sure to get enough rest and sleep so that his hands are steady enough to solder the fine wire... rclxms.gif

u sure he got enuf sleep everyday? laugh.gif
but anyway he is a great perfectionist and u can c his recabling and modding masterpiece with my akg 701... thumbup.gif

compare to ue11 and acs-t1 this 1 of the best custom iem i have tried..... thumbup.gif
*
hmm ok guys i had to give proper reviews on 3 highest custom iems here...
some 1 wanted to get either 1 of these
Ue11, Acs-T1 and westone ES3X
Ue11 is most prominent bass custom iems that i ever heard....
Dynamic,punchy deep bass like a freaking subwoofer in yur ears sweat.gif i heard it for 5 mins with my portable rigs and imo it is too much for me, bass is hitting my head like a freaking tin can being crushed by a Tank....
imagine pairing it with Diablo or Rsa products.....dun like it straightway cos it too colored for me and too bright for me to handle...
hard acytic mold shell well make my ears feel hot for 1 to 2 hours and i had to let my ears cool down lol

Acs-T1 is something like senheiiser or stax , veilly and dark soundsignature
it has the details, transparency and hall accoustics as Ue11 but more controlled bass and airry
in short sentence, i like it on spot when i got it..... perfectly pair with neutral amp like Iqube
gave me smooth,laidback and details like i wanted for my modded sen650
terms of advantages it has the soft molded silicon which i can wear for 8 hours straight and doesnt give me any uncomfortable feeling

The westone ES3X is the same categories as 2 above, details, transparency and great soundstage
it has opposite soundsignature compare to Acs-T1, bright, fast, and like Beyers and Audio Technica series
the highs r slighty harsh for me but in terms in highs categories, it is unbeatable......with exceptionally good deep bass as the ACS
it has same transparency as acs but somehow a slightly edging attacking on upper mid and upper highs
in a short sentence,basshead should get UE11 for ultimate bass response
For classicals ,vocals lovers, and slow musics , get the Acs-T1 for ultimate listening pleasure
ES3X is all rounder with no exception should be able to satisfies any serious audiophile who want best of both worlds....
balanced and neither laidback like acs or bass heavy like Ue11
comfort wise, same like hard acytic mold shell which some of users complained hot as hell and need take it out to rest yur ears

or it that something else other than ES3X? hmm.gif

nonetheless...i like to hear the bolded sentence! biggrin.gif

paiseh doh.gif
lol yesterday too tired and been listening to my modded akg 701 to mark it's progress.....
did in a hurry and to put into this way, ES3x is similar to pcwork's modded akg 701........
when i heard both of it and came to conclusion that is has the same characteristic as ES3x
if u wan to know the soundsignature, i will be happy let u try my akg ....

well too bad i aledi quiting my portable quest...
all of these rigs r back in sg......
1 moment of truth, however or watever u max out yur portable rig, it will not to perform as good as the fullsize cans with proper setup...trust me... i heard a lot of portable rigs over than 5k usd it still cannot beat a proper setup with a stock hd650 with a good dac and good amp that cost less than the portable rigs itself.....
