Same here, although I really should not. Too many sets already. But Penon/ISN/TSMR are very underrated. Most people do not even know of their existence. And I’ve have/had Penon Fan OG, Fan3, ISN H60, ISN EBC80. All great iems. I would point people to a dac/amp Cayin RU9 with tooobz. I ordered ine even pre 11.11 with codes and coupons for 370$ Should be here today/tomorrow. Gets raving reviews. My most recent purchase is Letshuoer Cadenza 4, a great, super comfy set with great technicalities, can be a bit bright. But I slap ziigaat liquid silicone tips and occ gold plated cable paired with either shanling UA3 or ONIX XM10 Waltz for some warmth and this is a magical combo. A set that’s slept on.

Soundryme is also released by Penon, they are really good too.
Same issue but solved it with sancai tips. I'm usually a medium size but since the Fan3 is a deep fit they get sancai smalls
Penon Fan 3 was goated, one of the best midrange I've heard in terms of musicality/enjoyment. Maybe less correct sounding than Tanchjim but it's a nice colouration.
I like my headphones more than my IEMs. But that's just me. I eq all of them. My Edition XS and Focal Hadenys have just as much detail as my IEMs, but sound way more spacious because they are bigger and open back. For IEMs I use Flipears Aegis, Hidizs mk12 and previously had Hype 4 and Penon Fan 3's.
Yeah, thought as much. Its a shame though, as others may not even be aware that these brands exist. ISN H60, EBC80, EST80. Penon Archangel, Voltage, Fan 3 Sound Rhyme DTE900, DTE264, SR10. Earacoustic vsa pm crown. All the above are fantastic iems from those brands, it's a shame that a of people aren't aware of them - as Penon and its sister companies probably give the best bang for buck out of most iem manufacturers (as a whole) excluding the likes of bgvp perhaps. I used to follow Jay a lot, until I saw one Facebook post where he said thst the Unique Melody Maven II wasn't an alrounder... I've personally owned the Maven II in the past, and couldn't understand this at all - every other single review regarding those iems also praised them for their versatility. You got one person saying they're not an alrounder vs at least 30 who say they are 😅 it's going to raise some doubts.. The other was his take on the Annihilator, where he talked down to someone for being a "serious audiophile" basically just wasting their money. Funnily though, I also own the anni 23, and have yet to become across an iem that can deliver treble in such a smooth way as the anni can 😅 I'd love a cheaper iem, but no one to this day has recommended me a cheaper iem that can do what the anni does (yet it being ancient in the iem world) Anyways, enough ranting - I hope people stumble across those brands that aren't talked about as much big the big reviewers.
