We love you, too ❤ I debated purchasing EA1000 during the recent sales but didn't since I felt the extra brightness wouldn't sound right to me. Now that you've given EA1000 a very nice FU, I'm confident that i made the right choice! Did I just miss the comparison graph? I was listening while doing the dishes, so it's possible although FR graphs usually draw my attention like nothing else 😂
It’s a great set for sure! I still use the em6l more than any of my other iems for some reason, even though this is clearly better. This iem would be the logical step up from the Olina se, maybe even the oxygen. Gold nozzle drops the pinna a bit, but I prefer the blue nozzle.
Demoed these a couple of weeks ago. They sounded lively, coherent, effortless, organic, seductive. There are IEMs which are more 'academically' brilliant. But next to the Ultra, they sounded soulless.
Dunu has made a number of fantastic earphones; I've had at least three sets (two DN1000 sets) and loved them all to one extent or another. The Unique Melody U3DT was the first set to seduce me away for years. And now I'm looking for a replacement for that. 😣
Another excellent review, Monk. I already read somewhere that you prefer the Falcons over the iBasso 3T-154 which I happen to like quite a bit, except for their size, lol, Anyway, AFAICT from some other reviews the Falcons are worth a shot ... and here goes the money 🤪 (Would have been nice to have the Falcons compared to some more expensive single DDs like the Timsok 316 as well, just saying...)
Excellent review I have the original Falcon Pro and the Falcon Vernus still not made to jump to the ultra but after your review the Edge is a little closer... 😂😅
The midbass performance of any IEM, to me, is crucial (dynamic, coherent, right weight, grip, right bleed to lower vocal range). I thought the EA500 with your mod (microfiber stuffed at the nozzle base hole) resolved to a midbass that was just about right. Where is the FU on this?
I wanted to clarify by commenting here as well as on your most recent video for the Pula PA02 bc as random as it sounds, I’m torn between the two of these. I’d be curious to get your personal thoughts between the two. I’m a basshead for sure but I also find a balanced tuning to be very enjoyable and already have basshead IEMs for those moods if not enough otherwise. It’s come to my attention that the Dunu are limited to like 450 units or something as well which makes them slightly more appealing atm. I def watched both videos a couple times tho btw and enjoyed them both!
The bass on the PA02 won't disappoint out of the 2 the PULA is more organic and the DUNU is snappier, but when it comes the rest of the tuning the PULA excels where the DUNU because of the single driver can't reach the extension and overall balanced of the PA02 . So spend less get more would be my advice but the PA02
Lmao what did you end up with? I only pulled the trigger on the artti r1 and trn conch (even though I already have an ea500/ew200). I did just get my Hidizs MP145 though, and damn it’s pretty amazing for the $140 I paid. The bass sounds closer to a dd than a planar.
@@Hijynx87 I have bought all 3! I might get the MP145 for the bass culture. Is it that good? I am waiting for the Artii t10 to arrive. I tell you my wallet is cursing!
Buddy you just saved me $220! Lol! I’ve been eye f’ing the ea1000 for awhile now, but I already have the falcon ultra from when it came out. It would have been like buying the same thing twice lol.
The driver in this thing is fantastic. I mean it’s the same driver from a $1000 iem. I’ve never heard the zen pro, but some people say the Falcon ultra is the better iem. It’s for sure better than the falcon pro though, much better tuned. Btw what tips are you using? I ended up with spinfit w1 medium.
60% of the Plungies and 70% of the Twilight but stage is also standout excellent on those 2 . The Wind by BQEYZ is one to put on your radar if your a stage hound!
Still surprised no one's able to design a 2-pin like MMCX connector. Whoever invents it will make millions. Thanks for the review, the opening song was bitching.
That's what I do , if I don't listen to a IEM any longer just move it to someone else or sell it , even if you enjoyed it in the past our taste change and you can try something different.
@@tonedeafmonk I had a problem with my dunu vulkan and I thinking if I buy another one or try the falcon ultra. The bad thing about the vulkan is the tramble hash that you can get in some tracks. But I think the bass is really good. Do you think the falcon ultra is better than the vulkan? Better bass presentation? I really enjoy bass and or warm IEM.
I have falcon pro, ultra and ea1000, ultra is the best, pro is 3rd, but pro has an advantage, it is smooth and soft, ultra is too sharp and strong, I can use pro for whole day, but only 2 hours for ultra and I will say " it's enough I will not use it again today.", but now I use ultra with spinfit w1, I can use it for 4 hours.
:- ) But why 'Blue baller' which i take it means "A person who leads you to believing you will get laid but doesn't finish the job" So does this IEM leave you a wanting a bit more in the end? But your review seems to be a rave! Unless there is another meaning to that phrase that i haven't heard. Don't blueball me!

Where did you learn to type??? Also you on Ritalen? Slow down and express yourself clearer more people will listen. You have some good insights. But damn man
100% blue baller means you don't get a satisfying ending. Baller is fine till you put blue before it then you got something different :)
Sounds like a buy for me. Thank you for mentioning Kim M. Love Go for soda.
Love Kim Mitchell... particularly with his original band (Max Webster) saw them back in the '70s.

Exactly 💯
Which one do you like more: Falcon Ultra or BQEYZ Wind? 🤔🙏 I need to choose one, because these are now at the same price 🥹
Damn tough call , organic naturalness FU , special sauce with stage Wind 🍃 I didn't have the Wind with me to a/b that will be a future vid
Such a good review. I am going to buy it and check out some more of your videos!
Awesome! Thank you!

I did that comparison in my Timsok vid , I think I preferred the DUNU
Excellent review I have the original Falcon Pro and the Falcon Vernus still not made to jump to the ultra but after your review the Edge is a little closer... 😂😅
Sorry not Sorry, I hope to hear the older offerings as well one day always checking the used market with my limited budget 😞

Perfect I judge Bass performance alot on how well a IEM does MB for correct execution and Tonality

Please tell how's the stage compared to the best you have mentioned (Softears Twilight?)?

Thanks for the review, the opening song was bitching.
New music 🎶 glad you liked it going to try and match the music to the IEM or my feelings
I think I will try to sell my dunu kima classic to buy the falcon ultra. Kima classic is good but I dont know... didnt enjoy that much.
That's what I do , if I don't listen to a IEM any longer just move it to someone else or sell it , even if you enjoyed it in the past our taste change and you can try something different.

I have to try the Pro one day!
ultra vs ea1000? which is better for vocals?
@@bestcocbaseswithlink5069 ultra, ultra is better than ea1000 and pro in all respects.
Hmm this or Simgot EA1000 for classical
The FU did strings better
@@tonedeafmonkwhat about pianos?
The driver is fantastic especially with lower notes Piano won't disappoint @@Giovayt2
