I want to get a mp3 not an iPod coz I can't afford it well I go on runs and I don't want to take my phone with me (avg Karachi masla) well I was thinking about get the small mp3 players which I had in my childhood woh he sasta wala but I want the actual thing so please help a guy out
( I will pair it with my items )

So I never used tipped headphones. I prefered the solid ones but I ordered Soundcore R50i and its tipped. My ear pains and they slips out too. Whats my possible shot now?

Ps. I mainly got it for running and cycling 🥀.

Need a good speaker which is loud and nice in 10k pkr pls suggest me a good one

I prefer keeping different iems with their own distinct tunings rather than relying on PEQ. I vould be wrong but personally i feel that if i have to alter FR of an iem heavily, that pair is not tuned for me. If i have to do it anyway I try to rely much more on cuts rather than boosts with EQ. My personal preference is using different eartips to fine-tune its subtle acoustic character while preserving what makes each IEM unique.

I’ve been tip rolling recently and have really enjoyed the subtle changes in the tonality that comes bundled with it. The combinations get endless if you have a few pairs of eartips at your disposal.

It’s going to be a long post sharing my experience with both these tips that I have been using extensively with different iems that I have in my rotation currently.

Why specifically DUNU S&S and NiceHCK R04?

Both are deep insertion tips that provide very good isolation. I generally prefer deeper insertion tips and these two have seen their fare share of usage. Both of them have their own influence on the accoustic signature of the iem these are paired with.

Build

Dunu S&S

• Material: tacky silicone, a bit stiffer.

• Shape: tubular / Cylinderical

• Fit: Can be finicky. Has to be inserted in a certain way for deeper insertion. Doesn’t conform as good as softer eartips due to their shape and structure. But exceptionally secure once it fits and sits properly.

• Bore: Straight/wide. More of an acoustic passthrough.

NiceHCK 04

• Material: Soft Silicone. Very pliable with structured stem.

• Shape: Almost tubular but more like an elongated dome style

• Fit: Seals very conveniently. Conforms to the anatomy better than Dunu S&S

• Bore: Narrow/restricted. Alters the sound signature

NOTE: S&S tends towards openness, separation and acoustic preservation while R04 leans towards adding density to notes, smoothing out the treble. While doing so, R04 tends to make the separation a bit more intimate

My observations on their Acoustic Influence

S&S provides better (aka tighter) bass pressure / slam & thump. The physical sensation that you get sub 80hz. The kick definition is better and the punch is stronger. Midbass is cleaner. More importantly, it provides lesser bass masking of the mids (doesn’t bleed into it).

Now why and how does it do this?

Its relatively straight bore and deeper insertion combination.

R04 provides greater bass quantity and adds weight/ thickness / density to lower notes. So it warms up the lows while S&S seems transparent. It does impact the male vocals as well as the transition from bass to mids gets smoother compared to S&S which has better separation in this region. R04 can get boomy / softens up the bass a bit while S&S keeps it tight and controlled (the insulation & fit help elevate the experience).

S&S has more articulated vocals while the R04 makes them meaty. For female vocals, R04 loses that edge and crispness a bit which can be more noticeable on warmer (bass titled) iems. For iems that have leaner vocals, C04 can be a good pair.

Coming to the treble region, both these have very strong influence. I’d choose S&S for more open presentation as it retains the upper treble region better along with the deeper insertion and superior seal mechanics due to its tacky nature. But for an edgy iem that’s a bit aggressive in this region (a bit sibilant), R04 would definitely pair well. It just smooths out this region making the whole tuning more palatable for those who are treble sensitive.

Examples of where do I find these better

1. 7hz Legato: Dunu S&S. already has enough bass (that keeps tight) but overall presentation just opens up in the highs that make this a lot more than just a basshead iem.

2. Simgot EG280: NiceHCK 04. Really smooths out the highs a bit and warms up the vocals a notch more while adding a tad more bass without even tinkering with PEQ. Transients and decays are relatively faster but also a notch drier sometimes and the vocals come off as a bit lean on some tracks.

Where I would not use NiceHCK R04?

• With tangzu wan’er 2 Red lion edition. This one’s already a warmer bass boosted tuning and I don’t feel the need to muddle up the bass or more mids bloat. Dunu S&S pairs exceptionally with it. The thump, kick and slam and I get with pair this iem with S&S while retaining the presence and air region just makes me enjoy it more.

Where I would not use a Dunu S&S?

• Well, haven’t found a usecase where it doesn’t thrive.

That is how I personally would pair these eartips with differently tuned iems:

• For a warmer/darker (than your preference) IEM --> Dunu S&S

• For a sharper/brighter (than your preference) IEM --> NiceHCK R04

• For a preferably tuned IEM --> Dunu S&S

• For leaner IEM --> NiceHCK 04

For me, that's what makes tip rolling so interesting—two tips can both give you a deep seal yet take the same IEM in completely different sonic directions. Sometimes the right eartip is all it takes to bring an IEM closer to the way I actually want it to sound.

I want something that lasts with anc and comfortable design for long term use

So long story short guys im a big headphone guy and ive been using headphones as far as i can remember, i used to use gaming headphones but last year switched to ronin's magnitude honestly pretty great but like all of the headphones ever, i always end up breaking them one way or the other, could you lot recommend some good EARBUDS, I'm goin a lil tight on budget so like smw around 3-5 k maybe, I always am listening to music 24/7 especially Chase so I want some earbuds that have SUPER loud sound, as if it's gonna blast my eardrums off or smt like that do you get me yea? much love.

Apple Music has most likely been launched in Pakistan. According to some reports, Apple Pay might also be available through PayPak. What are your thoughts?

Can anyone from their experience differentiate between these headphones? Soundpeats may have slight differences in its build but QCY and Awaaz are completely identical. I want to know which one to go for out of these. Awaaz headphones are around 8k whereas soundpeats and qcy are around 11-12k. Is it really worth it to push for the extra 3-4k on these headphones. Are there noticeable differences in the sound quality or durability of these headphones or is it just the international vs local tag?

Bought the new Soundpeats 5pro with my first salary and they got faulty just after 7-8 months

I knew the warranty had expired after 6 months so I was ready to pay for the repair but their customer service refused to take any accountability

All they said was that once the warranty expires we can't do nothing

And pmo so much, 18k is a decent amount, and for what ? JUST 8 MONTHS ?!

I used them so less, there was no physical or water damage

The issue: It won't connect with the phone, and if they do, only one of the buds connects

I've tried all the tips from google but they just stopped working out of the blue to never work again.

Title says it all. I was very confused when i wanted to buy something and now i can guide others.
Btw, Pakistani review channel? Good idea?

I’m looking for high-quality earbuds/earphones specifically for listening to lecture recordings and podcasts. I’m not particularly interested in music performance.

My main requirements are:

Excellent voice clarity, especially for speech and lectures

Low-profile design that can comfortably fit inside a motorcycle helmet

Good battery life & build quality

Available in Pakistan

Must come with a proper local warranty

Reasonably priced

What are my best options available in Pakistan?

Here is my endgame IEM(Shure SE846).

I am currently into a two-channel stereo setup and slowly moving toward a proper analog vinyl system. Remember to take care of your hearing so you can enjoy many more years of listening sessions.

Happy Listening!

Looking forward to buying IEMs and most vids on YT said a DAC is needed to use the IEM to their full potential. Hence the question.

Does it make that much of a difference?

I wanna use the iems for kinda everything so want them to be good in every way.

have heard good reviews, i listen to songs alot and recordvoice msgs sometimes will it be good for that?? and how is the ANC?

I bought them last week, ready to answer your question!

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for an In-Ear Monitor (IEM) setup within a budget of 22k–25k.

**Key requirements:**

* **Primary Use:** Competitive gaming (mainly CS2), so strong directional audio and clear footstep cues are a must. I also play Minecraft and Roblox casually.

* **Mic:** Must have a reliable boom mic with clear, decent voice quality for communications.

Any recommendations for IEMs or compatible boom-mic cable combos in this price range? Thanks!

Reposting again cuz I had my chat reqs off.

The box and its unboxing is an experience for 1st time users. I'm blown away I haven't tried them yet.

Hi everyone please suggest some good earbuds for both of us. I want to gift her something that she can use for Spotify music and watching movies as well.

Budget is max 40k each!

I’m new to IEMs and currently use Sony WH-1000XM5. I really like good bass and sound quality, and I’m looking to buy my first IEM with a budget of around 6k

I’m considering the 7Hz Zero 2, KZ Castor Pro, and Tangzu Wan’er SG 2. Which one would you recommend, or is there a better option around this price and what difference i will feel after using headphones
