New Regular price for N5005 is $199. It came back at this price multiple times after I first posted on Slickdeals about two years ago. They just keep on restocking after sell out. Unless they are keep making it, this should have been gone by now.

Wow. Good price for a well known brand iem. Great accessory package also. I've really been interested in upgrading my iem, but all the chifi stuff are really getting too expensive. Picked up a set at this price. Thanks op.

I bought these and returned them. I tried all the filters. I tried different cables. Nothing could get any kind of bass out of these. They were pretty thin sounding. I wanted to like them but the sound just wasnt that great. I paid 499 maybe for 199 they might be worth it to some one. This review is really spot on. My sentiments exactly.

Quality is what forced me to return them. MMCX connector broke twice and it was problem with sound cutting from left earbud. Every replacement made it worst then previous. Sound wise they where not to my likes, so even $199 price tag di not help.

Then it was a fit issue because these IEMs have excellent bass response.

Sure, give them clean punchy bass and they will rock your brain. But when you try feed them with some complicated music like Paul Schwartz or classical symphonic orchestra and they will struggle. I guess this is due to hybrid design, my Ulstrasone IQ exhibit same behavior.

This is THE DEAL!
Fit issue can be fixed with using one size bigger tip, and changing cable.
7k-8k is boosted but overall sound quality is great.
very stable and fulfilled bass!

Just got them in. Using the bluetooth cable and bass filter. Also, I usually switch my IEM tips to JVC spiral dots, but the included spin fits created the best seal. Sounds really good compared to my go-to iems IMR R1 and Zenith. Quality and comfort of the metal shell is excellent. Will definitely try the balanced cable with the AK dap and see if there are any sound improvements.
