Furthermore, even if the proper filters were subsequently installed, without a measuring rig it wouldn’t be certain if the reviewer is truly hearing the Dioko as it’s meant to be. Thus, it’s worth noting that early reviewers may have unknowingly received a Dioko with the wrong filters installed. Linsoul, the company that sold the first batch of Diokos, sent out an email to affected customers stating the mistake and shipped out the correct tuning filters for customers to install. His Dioko had a painful amount of upper mids and treble due to a lack of proper dampening. This was first discovered by YouTube reviewer Super* Reviews. Some of the early 150 or so units of the Dioko that were sent out had the wrong tuning filters installed. The Tuning Filters Debacle, Planar Variance, and its Effect on ReviewsĪt this point, it is important to address an issue with the Dioko that a few people may face. The Dioko does require a surprising amount of power. One thing to note is that you will want to invest in a dongle such as the Apple dongle. That said, given the size of the Dioko I don’t think it would be practical to use it for running or as a beater while working out.
I didn’t like this sort of tip on some of the other IEMs I’ve had but on the Dioko, it fits my ears very well and forms a superb seal without feeling uncomfortable. Additionally, the Xelastec-like tips work extremely well here. It has better ergonomics with the nozzle angle and length to allow the Dioko to safely bypass its shell. Moreso than the Timeless despite being larger. I was initially quite concerned for the fit and comfort based on how chunky it is, but I can happily say the Dioko is a comfortable fit for me. It’s made of metal and has a decent weight to it. The Dioko itself has a large, chunky, oval-shaped shell with a reflective purple faceplate that’s pretty to look at. Honestly, if you were to buy the accessory set like this from a 3 rd party, it’d easily cost you $50. Though it has some cable noise, there is little cable memory. Finally, the cable is a high quality 2-pin braided cable. These tips are quite unique in the way they feel and seal within your ears and can run over $20 for a set. But the star of the show is on the Dioko itself. Next is a number of generic colorful silicon tips. The first is its overly large but extremely good IEM case. The accessories of the Dioko are honestly impressive for the price tag.

On paper, this is an absolute no-brainer. The Dioko aims to capitalize on the Timeless’ success by leveraging Crinacle’s tuning prowess and significantly reducing the price to a very budget friendly $100. In fact, it is the Timeless that first kicked off the planar revolution about a year ago, coming in with solid technical performance and tuning at a competitive price of $220. Specifically, it is a planar IEM in the same vein as the recent crop of planar IEMs such as the Letshuoer S12, RaptGo Hook-X, Tin HiFi P1 Max, and of course, the 7Hz Timeless. The 7Hz x Crinacle Salnotes Dioko is the latest in the line of Crinacle’s collaborations. For those who trust in Crinacle’s name as a reviewer, it’s a compelling selling point when trying to shift through the sea of ChiFi products. At the heart of each collab is a Crinacle approved tuning.
To date, Crinacle has a total of seven collaborations across seven different companies, the most famous of which is the superb MoonDrop Blessing 2: Dusk. Most known for his ranking list and excellent measurement database, Crinacle has also expanded into collabing with various Chinese companies to develop IEMs. If you know anything about the IEM scene, you’ll almost undoubtedly have heard the name Crinacle.
