    Be sure to try them with micropore tape covering 60-70% of the front of the nozzle, it totally transforms them! My favorite iems this way. I have pics in the S12 thread.

    I always wondered if I should try some of that E1DA stuff. Do you like its sound?
    I loved the EarMen Sparrow but won’t buy another after two broke. The Helm Bolt is ok, but I’m still thinking about buying another dongle.

    @zottel I have no experience with other dongles except the fiio BTR3 which the E1DA absolutely destroy.

    The 9038SG3 to my ears is neutral, fast, powerful, mechanical and etched sounding, very bad synergy with BA drivers ime. It also has noisy noise floor fed from my phone. It pairs well with my fat slow Fiio FD5 single DD IEM.
