    I have upgraded to the Google Pixel 8 Pro so I am still learning the camera and the other aspects like audio. I did use the Rode Podcaster mic plugged in via USB but the sound is weird to me so I will have to explore what is going on there. Sorry for the lackluster audio quality. I hope you enjoy the 4k video quality.

      Explains why the video is so drastically clearer. If it’s any consolation, the audio sounds fine to me. Only thing I notice is a small bit of echo.

    Great video! Odd that this time of year we're inundated with planar sets? Same thing seemed to happen this time last year too.

      Planar probably take longer to research and develop which is why they come at the end of the year.

      @vorsakend666 @rsalmond83 Tangzu have more bass impact, a little more forward in the upper mids, have a bit more treble that can sound a bit harsh and hot, have a touch more note weight but do not sound as natural and accurate with tone and timbre, detail retrieval and resolution are similar.

    Any suggestions on DAC combination for this Kefine iem with iPhone 13 Pro max , I’m planning for hidizs xo dac, will it be good?

    • @TheHonestAudiophile
      @TheHonestAudiophile  Год назад +1

      Hidizs XO is a solid option. I prefer the Klansr on desktop but the XO dongle is good. The AudioEngine DAC3, Hiby FC4 and Moondrop Dawn 4.4 were also good pairings.

      HeyDay has more impact in the bass, has a little fuller note weight but isn't as natural with tone and timbre.

    This is on sale for around $90 and the S12 pro for $135. Not sure if the extra money is justified. I was thinking of using this for busy tracks, mainly rock, because everything mushes together on all my other sets. I was hoping planar drivers known for their speed could fix this. I've never heard a planar driver so I could be wrong in my assumption, however.

    • @TheHonestAudiophile
      @TheHonestAudiophile  Год назад +1

      Sorry haven't heard S12 Pro.

    • @zaq9339
      @zaq9339 Год назад

      It's about tuning not the technology used or 'speed'. Get something with less mid bass for better instrument separation. A harman style bass hump should help with that. I remember the s12 being quite airy but a little muddled for my liking. Look into hybrids/tribrids instead. Performer 5, Chopin, Nova etc.
