TRONSMART BANG MINI: Simply The Best

Image
Oi! Welcome to my another review article and this is all about the latest product from Tronsmart. As people reading my review articles, I've done at least 2 item reviews on Tronsmart products and all of them are portable bluetooth speakers. I'm actually enjoying using them on a daily basis as it is very convenient and easy to use them in either listening to music casually or watching some shows like movies, documentaries and podcasts. What I have here is their latest portable bluetooth speaker offering, The Tronsmart Bang Mini. This is a cheaper variant of the Tronsmart Bang without the software EQ app support.  On the physical aspect of Tronsmart Bang Mini. It has an ergonomic sausage-like shape with a handle on the top for easy to carry and it has bass transducers on both side ends. Like all Tronsmart speakers, it is very sturdy and well-built as it lives up to its moniker as a party speaker. The material of this unit is made of a solid, high quality p...

AUDIOSENSE AQ7 INSIGHT: Neutralheads, Midcentrics and Trebleheads, Unite!

Image
"The Devil is in the details". So how does this quote connect to this review article? Well this is how I simply described this product capability as a tool for audio professionals or just for an apparatus for an audio enthusiast either for critical listening or just a simple enjoyment. As some of you already know, I'm a big fan of Audiosense products as I previously did a lot of product reviews from them many times. I can proudly declare that not a single Audiosense product has really failed my expectations. That's how I undoubtedly adore Audiosense on how they presented their products and make sure it is up to the high quality standard. What I have here now is their latest flagship model, The Audiosense AQ7 "Insight". It's actually an improved model with some revisions over its predecessor, the original AQ7. Based on the users' feedback of AQ7, Audiosense decided to tweak and modify some supposedly shortcomings of the previou...

BLON Z200: A Redemption Prospect?

Image
"Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like." This quote is from Lao Zu, a great Chinese philosopher and it's all acceptance and moving on. That's how I actually felt about this particular audio brand, BLON. I have a very complicated connection with this brand as it is one of its products is the main reason that drives me to be an IEM reviewer. To make this story short, I'm one of the many audio enthusiasts who purchased the BL03 due to some hyping from influencers and opinions in YouTube and in some audio forums on how good sounding this IEM but when I received it, put them in my lugholes, my initial expression is "What the f***... is this a quality tuning that these people are praising it to the heavens, this is awfully tuned, fitting is atrocious  and technicalities are really subpar, this is no way a f*...

KB EAR ORMOSIA: Tantalising and Audibly Good

Image
  Ormosia is a type of legume plant which is endemic to East Asia and it has many sub variants forms from large shrubs to a full grown tree. Here in my country, we have a native Ormosia tree and with its fruits and leaves, we use it as some sort of folk medicine. We are all familiar with the KB Ear's naming convention on their product based on gemstones or birds but this time they choose a name from a tree or shrub. What I have here is a new product from KB Ear and its model name is a namesake connected to the tree that I mentioned at the start. This is KB Ear Ormosia, it is a hybrid driver set-up IEM consisting of a single dynamic driver and a custom balanced armature driver. It is housed in an aluminium alloy to provide a better built and protection to its inner components. KB Ear decided to uses a MMCX-connector on this unit which is quite different compared to their usual recessed 2-pin connector probably due to a very unconventional contour of its shell. The design...
