Wow, thanks for your recommendation.

Castor Pro is really worth it for the price, my god.

The next toy I may be looking at is a Bluetooth adapter for IEMs, any recommendation?

Hopefully wife approve :ROFLMAO:
That one I got no recommendation since I dun have one... but you can take a look at TRN one since they got modular connector to adapt to different type of IEM connection.

For Castor Pro or any KZ IEM look for QDC version.

As for the bluetooth adapters...need to buy higher end de...last time hoot KZ 09/09 pro....use for 1 year plus have hard to charge/not charging issues when put back into the cases....TRN ones a lot better :) got a BT 20 pro swee swee for a couple of years...only KZ 09 pro barely survived after cleaning the contacts regularly. As for KZ AN01...still holds up but need to see long term usage...

For the dongle type...BTR 3, 5, 17 so far so good for me :) All have some issues but nothing critical till wanna throw into dustbin...so BTR 11 will be a good start :)

Reminds me of this but if you want to prevent scratches I guess you could cut out and tape some bubble wrap inside. Or if you got soft sponge also can. The TRN case actually about the same price as the candy... but candy you get to enjoy the fruit drops lor, the TRN I think have soft inner-lining.

Toy is here.

So far don't notice any audio quality drop compared to using wired but will continue to monitor. Even if there is, it's probably minor and for it's price I think it's acceptable.

Still sound better than my Baseus WM01.
