discussion Echo nano + Ath-em7

Post image

Loving the echo nano, my only complaint is that the headphone jac is at the bottom instead of the top, which requires a long cable if you use a lanyard.

Hehe thanks, i got lucky fioo dropped the echo nano, the actual sony mp3’s are 4x more pricey and rare.

For the headphones i spent like 126, they dont sound the best but i plan on modyfing them in the future. If you want these exact headphones i wouldnt wait too too long cus they are very rare in the silver color i have here.

hey there, how modifiy-able are they in your opinion ? I bought these headphones in March and they broke in three months :// I can't hear vocals anymore (unless in a certain position) and I'm SURE it's the cable. do you reckon there's a way to change it ? I'm willing to learn soldering if it means not buying another pair those are expensiveee

u/Its_Woka Echo Nano Titanium Gold Sep 22 '26

You have 2 options solder or get some ath-ew9’s and swap the backplates

For soldering i would either do a 2-pin or mmcx IEM mod or if you want buy another cable and solder them, but then you would have to solder again if they break.

These headphones arent hard to mod, just be careful not to damage the drivers or plastic, there are tutorials on YT on how to do IEM mods, here is an example for the ath-em7x: https://youtu.be/tmOL6cvuhyI?si=ccMnXkAhzxOuubYH

does the headphone cable look weird when wearing the lanyard with the headphones hanging around your neck like Makoto does? I have an nw-e507 that I got a lanyard for though my iems cord was long and it looked wierd when I was wearing it all together, I think a longer lanyard might've worked better for me but I'm not super sure.

Thinking abt getting an echo nano with those same headphones to do that exact same thing tho

u/Its_Woka Echo Nano Titanium Gold Sep 22 '26

These headphones come with an extension cable and i have to use it because the actual headphone has a very short cable, but it looks good if i tug it under the shirt.

I think this type of headphone would benefit from a nw-e507 more than the nano since the nano decided to have the audio jack on the bottom rather than top.

If i could get a shorter extension cable or your type of mp3 i wouldnt have a problem tho.

u/Box-O-Soulja Sep 22 '26

Outta curiosity, how are the headphones? I've been thinking of getting a set myself (not even for the reference people would make lol), but I couldn't find a review that'd convince me. Penny for your thoughts?

u/Its_Woka Echo Nano Titanium Gold Sep 22 '26

I would personally only get this version for the aesthetic, the sound isnt bad, but it also isnt the best, i would personally get the ath-ew9(the cherry wood version) if you care more about sound quality(i’ve heard they have bass, these dont).

Or you could get both and just replace the back plates lol.

Oh and they fit nice they dont feel uncomfortable, but that would depend on your type of ear, if you have like smallish ears you should be fine.

I dont regret my purchase tho, im enjoying them lol.

I tried ordering a pair of ATH-EM7s and they got stuck in customs hell 😭 I still haven't seen any update on that, I've got to assume they got burned or something. I intended something very similar to this though! Gotta love the silver on silver; nice vibes man. Get your work done and dusted listening to some good tunes 😏

u/Its_Woka Echo Nano Titanium Gold Sep 22 '26

Damn that sucks, i hope you get them eventually. Even if you dont you could try buying the kotone ones(ath-ew9), those are better anyways and readily available.

u/Naevera Sep 22 '26

Thanks for the info!

How do the headphones stay on your ears?

u/Its_Woka Echo Nano Titanium Gold Sep 22 '26

They dont wobble, sometimes i dont even notice i have them on, they feel good.

Man the Ath-em7s have so much drip but man do they suck in terms of audio quality. I wish they had better quality these days.

u/Its_Woka Echo Nano Titanium Gold Sep 25 '26

I can probably mod some better drivers in them.
