Tekfusion Twinwoofers - A Complete Review

[quan chi]

Guys got this product.Well only used for few mins therefore wont say much.But one thing is sure it seems the bass has punch.
Atleast far better than some of my other earphones.I only tested it in my mobile.
The packaging too is quite good and attractive for an indian company.

Will update later after some more usage.

Does these sound worst at first and sound better only after hours of burning.

Be advised that sound will not change drastically. There will be subtle differences and more will be your brain burning in to the sound preference of the said earphone.

Burn-in is a complex topic. As a music enthusiast, and IEM explorer, I would say any one who has spent some years with IEMs can be true in one way or another about their feelings and experience on burn-in. For some people who have seriously sharp ears - like myself, its a difference of day and night.

For average listening, you might not even notice any change or something like a slight change, depending on your hearing experience and ability.

What i think my friend means by 'brain-burn-in' is a situation where you spend several tens to hundreds of hours with the earphones, until your brain becomes used to the sound produced, that you ultimately start loving the sound signature of it. Well this is true for every IEM i would say, but not for some low-end ones i guess

Alright guys the eartips and the speaker itself may become an issue as it is too large as far as i am concerned for my ears.I am finding them uncomfortable.

Moreover after testing it for few hrs i feel the bass is taking its place too much.The bass is good alright but the other instruments and vocals are kind of suppressed by it.You may notice it if you listen very carefully.

Can anybody confirm this bass thingy ?

Guys,

this is for those who are having a pair of these twinwoofers. I realized today (after a week from getting the piece) that the right and left chanels are wrong. Is it just a printing mistake on my piece or do i need to get it cchanged. I already swapped mine for a defective right side.

I checked with 2 other in ears that i have, both in my lappy and my mobile. The left plays on the right and vice versa.

Can anyone confirm this???

Well, i think after burn-in, there is this period when all earphones don't sound that great just for some time. If you read audiophile blogs, you'll find many people reporting this kind of issues after burn-in. This happen for some time, to all earphones and over-the ear headphones as well. Later on, things go back to normal. I did experience a similar scenario with an old senn. hd700 before. But doesn't last so long.

You mean all your earphones have swapped left for right?

My burn ins must be around 10hrs approx.

Multiply this by 10. I think you'll be shocked, especially by the bass

Also, try listening to your favorite tracks at night, when the noises are less. You'll be able to hear some more details. Its proven that at night, the environmental noise levels drop pretty well.

If you amplify these, you won't believe your ears But use a HQ amplifier

i meant my twinwoofers are playing like that. The others play on the proper channel, right on right and left on left. Only the tekfusion plays on the wrong ones.

Not so sure buddy. Maybe you should seek their support team. I don't see any such problem with mine

which will be a proper device for their optimal utilization.

I don't understand what you mean by device. But if you mean the source, i suggest you use from CD/DVD players, to Portable media players (Cowon, iPod) to Smartphones. If you plan on using smartphones, especially the android ones, be sure to check out an app that goes by the name "Poweramp" with which you can get awesome equalizer settings and amplification options. Some older sony ericsson and nokia phones also sound awesome with Twinwoofers.

I hardly use it with my laptop, because I own a Dell, and it is known for bad sound. Twinwoofers do sound amazing when watching Bluray movies with 5.1 surround enabled. A better laptop such as Vaio would work great.

You just have to buy and listen for yourself, its that great.

^^Yes i meant the source only.

I would rate the tekfusions as a pretty average pair.
Bass is okay considering the price, but the highs make me uncomfortable.
Whenever I listen to the higher notes, my ears cringe a bit as it seems to have an uncomfortable or rather unusual spike in its higher freqency range.
I found the M1 to be much better than the tekfusions and as per ClieOS(inearmatters.net and headfi) and |Joker|(headfi), I believe the soundmagic e10 and e30 are much better options too.
But then to each his own, to be honest, there was nothing that bad, nor there was nothing that good. Just not happy with the way it handles the upper end of the frequency spectrum.
They did good work on the packaging though.

Yes, i also think E30 is a better buy in this budget.

I don't have such problems that you are describing. Could be something wrong with your pair. As far as i know, these have a more balanced (but slightly bassy) signature, and have a way way better overall sig even compared to overhyp-ed ones like bose and sennheiser that fall in this category range. If you ever listen to a balanced armature (especially ones that fall into the full range category) IEMs (which are the low end BAs that are moderately priced), they mostly sound same as the Twinwoofers in terms of the sound precision.

You'll note one more thing about these. The bass is accurate, just like a balanced armature. Its not muddy like many other dynamic headphones.

^^I'll be getting one piece for review next month. Will compare it to others in my bunch.
