@Dylan Chau Ah! Thanks for clearing that up for me. I had the same confusion that Josh had when I first bought them and read that the HQ app was for what I stated. Didn't realize I was reading about the PC app in regards to the Mobius. Good to know! Thanks again!
I am so excited for this! Love this headphone so much it changes mobile quality audio experience! I love sound stage and this just brings it in such a great package! Buying the B-Stock for the way lower price makes this a steal everyone. Look into it as Audeze told me its just ascetic reasons and I can't even see any flaws on mine.
Thank you for helping me find this amazing audio experience, Josh! These are ideal for warm-weather Alaskan adventures, especially when teamed with an ES100. Now I can EQ to minimize wind noise while cycling and climbing, as well as fade music into background, when in bear country.
I love my iSine’s. I wear them on my commute since I can still hear traffic around me. The Bluetooth module includes a fixed eq built in, but I prefer connected to the 4.4mm on my R6 Pro. They like power. I tried spin fit tips which gave more base, but sacrificed some of the soundstage which is the thing I really love about the iSine.
@@freepagan anker makes a lightning to usb c audio adapter that let's you use the lightning cable on Android phones now. Isine is polarizing, some people love them, some hate them.
The LCD i4s are the best thing I've ever heard and nothing has come close except for the Final Audio D8000. I workout in my LCD i4s and have had no problems with sweat or comfort.
you are my savior. I've been debating selling my Isines, but the thing keeping me back is that Bluetooth cable (plus I've had no luck selling them either but oh well I guess Dx) that cable is like, amazing. thank you
v2 cipher cable is a game changer. You can bend the ear hooks to perfection. I've enjoyed Comply 600s for great isolation and comfort. If you use iPhone this is a no brainer.
Another great review Josh. Happy Independence Day man! Also if you end up buying some I recommend looking at the Earstudio ES100 to power and dsp them if you wanna go clean bluetooth. My Isine 10s sound better to me with it(and a custom EQ) compared to the cypher cable. I got a lot of distorted bass when using the cypher cable and it sounded bloated etc.
I am thinking of buying these along with the es100 could you explain a little more what the benefit of me purchasing the ES100? I am not an audiophile and I really dont know what the ES100 does.
@@Slyclientthetechdad On top of this review: th-cam.com/video/kjWxgoE9Ih8/w-d-xo.html It is basically the current endgame bluetooth dac/amp, but what makes it exceptional for the Isine is that they require EQ and they have a 10 band parametric EQ and has tons of additional features. You can download the app for free to get the full understanding of how crazy they are, I think the price has dropped to 80$ so its a killer mobile investment and can be used on a desk too... Oh and its got balanced output ;) Let me know if you need anything else.
Josh, I’m in the middle of watching your review, so I haven’t finished yet, but my first thought is-have you used them with a desktop amp using the Audeze Reveal VST plugin? I have been using the iSine 20 with that plugin with my LCX+SDAC. It made me fall in love with it.
I wanted to pick up the 20 version of this, and I kept putting it off, I might actually invest, The thing that was holding me back was getting the LCDI4, and I kept holding out for that. If you have a get to experience the LCDi4 or the 20 version of this I’d be interested in your opinion
Definitely recommend the 20s! I'm also hoping to own the LCDi4 at some point but until then the 20s are awesome. Keep in mind if you're planning on using these with the 3.5mm cable, you absolutely need to use a parametric eq. I'm running my 20s through android's USB Audio Player Pro app with the parametric eq settings recommended by Audeze...they sound incredible.
Levi Lambert can you compare bass between the two? 10vs20? Thinking of selling my monoprice m1060s to help fund them. But I’m curious how much bass I will lose. I run through Onkyo DP-X1A so I’ve got plenty of power. Thanks in advanced
@@marsoblivi0n945 The bass on both is comparable. No drastic differences. The i4 seems like a step up in bass only because it captures different fluctuations in bass notes.
I got the B-Stock and paired it with the Pioneer XDP-300R with a balanced 2.5mm adapter and my god the soundstage is incredible and the clarity and detail is off the charts
UPDATE: so now I’ve upgraded to a new DAP (Shanling M6 21) and use the balanced 4.4mm connection for the iSine 10 and the sound quality is just completely different in a good way however the bass on these is still almost nonexistent for me. These are no longer my daily’s I now use the Thieaudio Legacy 3 which better fits my main type of music ( electronic and some hip/hop) since it has punchier more present bass. Also they sound much more crispier and clean and detail retrieval has increased as well as soundstage. I would recommend these if you listen to rock, salsa, classical, jazz or even some film scores.
Awesome video as always man. The B-Rolls are fking AMAZING!!!!!! I know that you focus on audio most the time but it would be really cool if you start review PC hardware with such camera work talent! I need an purchasing advice if you could please; I currently have the dt770 250ohm and I would like something opposite in terms of feel/breathability for my ears. I want something very open but have a neutral sound with decent soundstage. Are the Khans dt990 earcups breathable? Price range is 0-350$.
I had these and it was too cold sounding with the lightning cable. I liked isine 20, now having Monolith M350 which is much warmer (not perfect but for 160$ it’s just great deal)
I'm thinking about buying these or the iSine LX. Currently I use the AD700x headphones, I like them but they have no Bass. How does the Bass compare to AD700x?
Choosing to upgrade my monitors. Between Adam T5V and the not yet released Presonus E5 XT for my mid size home studio. I have adequate room treatment, as well as speaker stands and Isoacoustic pucks. The Presonus have class AB biamps instead of Class D amplification in the Adams and the front port design is desirable for my workspace. Any thoughts on if I should stick with the Adams? I’ve heard mostly great things about their ribbon tweeters, and the T series seem to have fantastic reviews. I would love any input on this purchase decision!
I think because planars usually create a seal between the driver and your head with headphones - allowing the longitudinal waves to be directed straight into your eardrum, whereas this is not the case with speakers
I think Planars do Mid Bass the best, not Lower Bass. This is still where Dynamic Drivers still shine, at least this seems to be true in IEM's. Shouer EJ07 is a great IEM for Bassheads, but it's 850$
The Audeze app didn’t recognize the iSines when you plugged them in and do a “default DSP adjustment,” assuming that means automatically load Audeze-supplied EQ settings. That was the owner’s EQ settings, stored in the Cipher cable’s memory. Audeze’s settings are already applied when the EQ in the app is flat.
I bought iSine LX last year to have a "not warm" pair of headphones. They're great sounding with proper EQ. Without EQ, they're kind of garbage actually, hopefully Audeze provides what's necessary with either the cipher cable, or the Audeze Reveal VST plug-in, which I used with EqualizerAPO on my computer. All that said, I don't use them too much because the fit is not really comfortable for me. Edit: btw, I meant "not warm" as in physically warm, not as not warm-sounding.
TheErajat a perfectly working version that may have a scratch or imperfections to the looks. But saves you about the half the price of high end products most the time.
Granted i have the 20s but whatcha talkin bout these are quite natural. But they smack the sht out of my x00s phidelio x2s and all my other headphones in terms of detail soundstage and imaging. It is not super accentuated or anything but if your not getting the bass hit than you don't have a good enough seal. These are amazing for gaming the soundstage is so huge and the imaging is so accurate and there is so much detail you can hear everything and exactly where they are coming from. They are great for working out but they suck for anything with speed they stick out so much they create massive amounts of wind noise and are unusable on my bike
I have a Oneplus 5 and I was planning to buy Audeze isine 10, can I connect the cipher lightning cable using some connectors to my 3.5mm jack or will it won't work?
Hi, I have a question. If I connect the cipher II cable in my iphone and switch on Muzik at the same time, Muzik runs for one second in the iPhone speaker and only after 1-2 seconds the signal comes into the headphones. Is that normal? And if so, maybe know what it is about?
I own isine LX. Mehhh...Even with comply 500 series foam eartips. Running with both the Bluetooth module and cable from LGV30. The module is great for phone calls, even in loud environments, maybe not as good as a blueparrot truckers headset, but still good. Vocals are amazing! On some music tracks that I'm not familiar with, I catch myself looking around to see who said that or who made that sound. They will also reveal poor quality recordings. I'm a bit of a bass head, I like a good solid bottom end. They barely get there for me. Btw to get the 500 series tips to fit, I use hemostats , inserted through the exit hole and stretch them out to fit. They shrink back onto the Audeze post for a secure fit.
I have the iSine 20 and I understand the stock aux cable is lacking the Audio decoding and equalizer for the full experience/punch of the earphones that the APPLE Cypher cables provide, also the Bluetooth Cypher is an option but it's still behind the apple direct wire connections delivery. Is there a solution for me to unlock the FULL GLORY of these headphones using my ANDROID PHONE? Audiophiles please help!!!!
Do you have a CIPHER cable? If so you can use a USB c to lighting connector. I just use my LG V40 and both the 10s and 20s sound fine. The biggest difference between the phone and the CIPHER is bass. You take a noticeable bass hit using the phone. In fact I prefer the phone because the ESS Sabre DAC provides for separation and clarity with the 10s and 20s. Point is you don't need the Cipher. Hope that helps
Mine must be broken, even my FH5's have more bass than my isine 10's. Then the isine doesn't touch my CA Atlas or CA Polaris ll in terms of bass and sound quality. Anyone else's cable smell God awful and can't stand the fumes it is gassing off? My cable is horribly stinky.... Maybe I got a bad set?
Jason Jennings they have more bass then my Lcd 2 NF ; Ananda ; Arya ; he1k ; fh5; w w60 ; Django ; P1 and the rest The only 2 headphones that have more bass in my competition are Sony xb1000 and JVC ha-sz2000. But I don’t listen to them often . The v2 cable and some Eq and you will be surprised
I was dissapointeted with these. Yes the soundstage is wide but thats all. Almost no instrument separation at all. Audeze SINE is 10 times better portable headphone/iem.
I have the Audeze Sine, but I have not heard the iSine (I have the Monolith M300 though, and they're decent but barely get any use anymore after I purchased the Tin T2). The Sine is absolutely incredible though, especially if you swap the pads (I swapped to some OEM Skullcandy Aviator pads, and they are the best I have tried). Seriously underrated headphones, and the best portable headphones I've ever heard. Plus you can find them used nowadays for ~$200, which is a screaming deal
@@kylemueller iw tested also alot of portable headphones and have not yet found anything better than SINE. Not single IEMs have out perfomed those. Not even on 1000$ range.
Crazy how we can all have different opinions on what we hear. I’m pairing this at home to a Dave and it sounds magnificent. I can tell where everything is coming from. I will pick up the i4 soon and compare them.
SCREW all this noise about how the iSines are "close but no cigar"....Review the LCD-i3s, and I GUARANTEE that you will all change your minds!! The iSines were Audeze's FIRST ATTEMPT to bring high-end audiophile tech to the consumer market.....The LCD-i3s, are something else altogether - They're definitely not beginner audiophile, but at the same time, they're EXACTLY what planar magnetic in-ears SHOULD BE!
The P1 is a sealed IEM. It's not really a fair comparison. The the P1 is worse that the T2. I have both and spent the past two days listening to the P1. It's good, but the serious lack of bass kills it for me. It wins in detail retreval but not by much. Planning to return my P1 and keep the T2 as my daily drivers.
I've had the P1 for a couple days now. I don't recommend them. The low end is very recessed. EQ helps but the Tin T2 has more bass and a fuller sound and equally as much sound stage plus better imaging. The P1 wins in detail retreval, but that's it. Save your money and get the T2. After a few weeks of using the P1, I retract my previous comment. The P1, if properly ampped and with a tiny bit of EQ, is a very amazing IEM. It pairs very well with the ES100.
$350.00...Not a hope...I do enjoy a great sounding IEM, pull it out, plug it in, turn the tunes on and enjoy...let's not over think what an IEM is which this one does.
They're trash. You need to use the cypher cable just to get the tuning right, and that's just for Apple. Audeze bows down to Apple, forgetting about the rest of us. I can't respect them after that.
The HQ app is for the Audeze Mobius and any newer generation audio gear that use the 2nd Gen Cipher cable.
Israel Cruz Jr. not for Mobius on iOS. That is true for the desktop app, however.
Audeze Hq is for cipher v2 and audeze (no hq) is for cipher v1, audeze last sale for isine10 was mostly with cipher v1.
@Dylan Chau Ah! Thanks for clearing that up for me. I had the same confusion that Josh had when I first bought them and read that the HQ app was for what I stated. Didn't realize I was reading about the PC app in regards to the Mobius. Good to know! Thanks again!

That intro was so sick.
As always a good review & stunning visuals. I hav iSine 10 & the greatest advantage is that it's lightweight with great sounstage & clean sound.
That snazzy black/steel iSine though! This video’s intro sounds great on the iSine’s btw 😏

It's good, but the serious lack of bass kills it for me. It wins in detail retreval but not by much. Planning to return my P1 and keep the T2 as my daily drivers.
Now review the Andromeda's.
TINHiFi P1 is reportedly better though.
I've had the P1 for a couple days now. I don't recommend them. The low end is very recessed. EQ helps but the Tin T2 has more bass and a fuller sound and equally as much sound stage plus better imaging. The P1 wins in detail retreval, but that's it. Save your money and get the T2.
After a few weeks of using the P1, I retract my previous comment. The P1, if properly ampped and with a tiny bit of EQ, is a very amazing IEM. It pairs very well with the ES100.
$350.00...Not a hope...I do enjoy a great sounding IEM, pull it out, plug it in, turn the tunes on and enjoy...let's not over think what an IEM is which this one does.
They're trash. You need to use the cypher cable just to get the tuning right, and that's just for Apple. Audeze bows down to Apple, forgetting about the rest of us. I can't respect them after that.
Am i the only one who finds these INCREDIBLE muddy when i listen to the stock cable?
Oluv is less than enthusiastic about these earphones.
Oluv pairs them up with low quality sources. Pair this up to a Dave. Game changer.
these sounded like shit lol. they had to make an EQ app and a sound coloring amp to make it sound better
Very bad stupid headphones the sound its lame and the ear hooks and the cable breaks apart.
Bla bla bla all I hear is bla bla bla
Really man, I'm sorry to hear. Go see an ear specialist that blah blah doesn't sound good.
