I got my first IEMs maybe two or three years, and I remember watching a lot of channels to see whats worth grabbing and when I was looking around, I never really found anyone as good as you are. You deserve a lot more popularity. DankPods talks about IEMs, but its rare, and besides that I can't think of any fun audio enjoyers with a decent personality, good energy, and concise format. You check all the boxes, keep it up.

What about 7hz selnotes zero??
I agree with you, these are great! I would probably add Moondrop Lan alongside these 4.
Hello, may I ask? I have tried Shui Yueyu's aria, aria se and kato. I chose se. I think kato's bass is too heavy, although the mids and highs are obviously better. The price and CP value are not higher than se for me. Maybe I don't. I am used to choosing my first headphones. I prefer low frequencies, not too heavy, not loud, mid-treble, multiple voices, close to the vocals, louder than instruments. If I mainly listen to tiktok, light pop music, which one would I recommend more? Or do I prefer this one? Can I use a tuning tube to change it to se and occasionally to kato bass?

Seems like you will like the Simgot SA500 or 7hz Sonus!
Does anyone have any idea how to run Red Zero in balanced mode with an impedance adapter? I've scoured AliExpress, but I couldn't find the adapter for 4.4mm
I want a headset that I can use while playing games and watching videos during my live broadcasts. I'm stuck between Truthear Zero and Nova, which one would you recommend? I don't want to waste money, hearing clearly where the players are in the games is enough for me.
Is EA500 better than S12 pro?
What do you think is easier to listen to? I am treble sensitive and my library is full of sibilant prone tracks

If that is the case, go for things that have lesser upper mid energy such as the simgot ew200, triplowin kailua or blon z300
Hi, is it feasible you could advise which one should I buy: oriolus traillii JP or aroma jewel. Regards,

Hello! I heard the Traillii recently and thought it was a rather nice warm pair and awesome vocals. I think if you like that sort of sound you can go for it. I haven't had the change to listen to the Aroma Jewel yet but will do so next month when I am in Hong Kong!

Can you please give your impression on fir audio frontier iems ?

They have quite a unique sound with the kinetic bass going on where it sounds quite expansive and there is a 3Dness to the sound. But bass also does lack a bit of texture because of that. I think that they are quirky and kinda prefer the 64 Audio Fourte and Trio. I actually have a xe6.
Have you tried EW200? Apparently similar to EA500 but half the price, not sure about that though - haven't tried and no reviews out.

White noise and pink noise all would work. You can find them on Spotify. Just loop them and let it play over night. Some folks don’t believe this but I feel that there is no harm to let them just run. Enjoy your earphones!

@@s1lverhand_ The ea500 would be good for me? I'm kinda new to this hobby. I'm thinking about buying an IEM for around 80$ . Can you suggest something to me? I like Pop (sub pops like psychedelic pop, dream pop, alt pop, indie pop), electronica, psychedelic rock, alt rock. I usually listen to Tame Impala, Beach house, crystal castles, Joji, pastel ghost, The neighborhood, Men I trust etc, Tv girl. I need something that has good details, separation & soundstage. Thought about buying the Olina SE but isn't available in my country. so is there anything for around 80$ or should I extend my budget and buy the Dz4?

@@opiumosaka dz4 aint well known for a good soundstage, ea500 on the other hand will provide you the most amount of details after planar IEMs without having a planar timbre. due to that air presence, it sounds open and very well separated. Its even higher res than the em6l and olina se. its an immersive fun type of sound imo.

I'd say the Quintet will have a decent chance of becoming one of the best IEMs of the year. I have friends who have tried and they all say they are easily the best Kiwi Ears yet - even the pricier ones. They could well end up being a top tier Kiwi Ears price, given the amount of tech crammed in there.
New list...
