Following our coverage of the Tokyo Headphone Festival 2019 Spring, Porta-Fi back for the Tokyo Headphone Festival 2019 Autumn which happened on 2nd and 3rd November at Nakano Sunplaza.
Organised by Fujiya Avic, the Tokyo Headphone Festival is a bi-annual affair featuring in Spring and Autumn. One of the biggest audio shows with a focus on headphones in Japan where In-Ear Monitors (IEMs) and Earbuds are also classified as headphones. The festival attracts over 100 headphone-centric exhibitors to Nakano’s Sun Plaza.
Following two days of headphone-centric festivities, here is a summary of what caught our ears:
hi，if elysian acoustic lab ” terminator ” compare with sony ier z1r , which one is better ?
thank you.
Hi Ing Kian, the two are very different IEMs which differs very much in Sound Signatures, without knowledge of your listening preference. It is very hard to cite which is better. The IER-Z1R is my go-to IEM if I would like an IEM which I can use as a reference while the Terminator is good, it is more of a HiFi sounding and not in the Flagship league as yet, however, my experience with the Terminator is that the performance can be further scaled with upgrade cables. I hope I have given you some insights.
