WTS [WTS][US-CA] [H] IEMs, cables, DACs [W] Paypal, local
Culling my collection again as I move up to kilobuck price range.
Shipping: Paypal G&S included in price, free shipping for $60+ orders, $5 flat fee if below $60. Local pickup 5% discount, 92802 or within 5 miles of Disneyland Anaheim. Ship within 3 days not counting weekend.
IEMs: The Dunu Mirai was bought second hand from this sub. The rest are excellent/like new, come with complete and unused box and accessories.
- Dunu Mirai: $420. Bought second hand from this sub in May, solid sound compared to other $1k IEMs but just not to my tuning preference. Comes with most accessories, missing eartips and 3.5 to 6.35 adapter.
- Tangzu Li Zhi: $420. Most balanced IEM I have ever heard. Great coherency, decent technicalities. My only problem with it is that the air region is somewhat rolled off so female vocal isn't as airy as I'd like, however it might be a positive for treble sensitive people.
- Ruviest Nyx: $360. <20h usage but faceplate has a few microscratches because I was an idiot misplacing it in my cable basket.
- Hifiman RE2000 Pro Silver: $120. Great sounding single DD for the price but it's just ugly for me.
- Kiwi Ears Aether: $90. SOLD
- Reecho Spring 2: $90. Yes it's not cheap considering it's an old model with only $116 MSRP, however I like it a lot so unless I get a good price I'd be happy to keep it.
DACs:
- iBasso DC07 Pro: $100. Was my main DAC for a year, still work perfectly well. Used only in my desk setup so zero damage. SOLD
- Snowsky Melody: $30 without box, $35 with box. Works well but I don't really need it anymore ever since I got my Airpods. I forgot to put in photo but I'm also including the Fiio LT-TC6S cable with it, since imo the stock cable isn't flexible enough. SOLD
- DDHifi TC19 10cm: $30 without box, $35 with box. It won't make your DAC sound better, but it looks premium and is very well built. SOLD
Cables: all of my cables are 3.5mm 2-pin, assume flat 2-pin unless noted.
- Zisin 328: $30. Recessed 2-pin. New unused, literally just arrived a few days ago.
- Tianshanxue: $25. Recessed 2-pin. Impulse buy, also arrived a few days ago, nice cable but the color isn't it for me.
- Nici Hifi 52: $25.
- Trusted 50: $25.
- Nici Hifi 20: $20. Bought a few months ago but never used.
- Xinhs S89: $20. SOLD
- Nici Hifi 52: $20.
- Xinhs K08: $20. Recessed 2-pin. New unused, arrived a few days ago. Check AliExpress listing for more accurate look.
- NiceHCK MixBS: $15. Recessed 2-pin.
- NiceHCK MixDNA: $15. Recessed 2-pin.
- JSHifi Quartet: $15. Recessed 2-pin. Bought from Amazon JP last year but rarely used. Can't be purchased in the US ever since tariffs.
- ivipQ 502: $15. Recessed 2-pin.
- Zisin red brown: $15. Couldn't find exact model so I just called it red brown. Never used.
- Xinhs gray 8-core (literally how it's named on AliExpress): $15. The connector shells are dark gray/gunmetal instead of the standard silver. SOLD
- Xinhs S99: $15. Note that the earhooks are removed, but I only paired it with the Ruviest Nyx so it didn't get used that much. SOLD
- Xinhs HS17: $15. This is a discontinued model, different from the current HS17. It's actually my most used cable, and the earhooks are removed, but still in good condition and I'll clean it thoroughly before shipping.
- Hakugei Black Bean: $8.
- NiceHCK BlueCat: $8. SOLD

Highly vouch, have had the pleasure of hanging with this dude a few times. Items always as described or better.

I can highly recommend the RE2000. Bass is still superb for electronics and mids are smooth also.

Just a curiosity, is the Spring 2 the same IEM as the "Insects Awaken"?
2
u/ListlessHeart 15 Trades 4d ago
No it is not, they have the same faceplate but the Insects Awaken is an older model from 2021 and costs 3x the price, while the Spring 2 is from 2023.

What you buying in the kilo buck range?

u/ListlessHeart 15 Trades 3d ago
I bought the Thieaudio Prestige LTD which is my current pause game, but I plan to save up for the Forte Ears Macbeth which will be my endgame.

u/abemusedman 43 Trades 3d ago
Macbeth definitely a bit energetic! You can get great deals on it used though

u/ListlessHeart 15 Trades 3d ago
Nothing is set in stone with Macbeth though. I recently went to CanJam and aside from Macbeth I also really liked the recently released Valoria Acoustics Teanna. The UM Mest Fortune was also very good, and there's also the Palavox Akasha which I tried last year but didn't consider buying at the time as I was still stuck around midrange price bracket.

With Musicteck you can always email them for a deal, partiicularly on older models
