I got both (the s2 for a week now) and I still use both. Sometimes I just miss the reductiveness of the original. When certain elements recede you can concentrate on the things that are left to shine. I love both.

I enjoy watching your reviews and the opportunity to revisit Malaysia, vicariously. I did live and work their for about a year, with my family, around Damansara Heights. We found Malaysia a wonderful country and I enjoyed getting back there (albeit briefly) for business, late last year. SUBSCRIBED!

Andy what are your thoughts on Sennheiser ie 200...I am listening many people praising them...i already using area ,ORIVEDI 200 n final audio a 5000...is there any difference sound wise compared with a5000
Nice info bro... Kinda gathering type of iem.. Plus extra audio cable(cooper) I'll select Movie Songs Game's Wide Spatial @ similar with Dolby Atmos sounds..
Your reviews are wonderful. I purchased the Onix dongle dac after hearing your great review. I'm looking at purchasing my first IEM and am considering the Juzear Butterfly 61t. Currently I'm using Sennheiser HD 580 headphones. Do you have access to the Juzear 61t for review? I would appreciate your impressions and Analysis and I believe others will also feel that way. I dont see any Juzear iem's on your rating spreadsheet.

looking into the FR graph of the S2, it is now looking better than the EA500LM in my opinion and with even better cable and that signature Dunu S&S eartips. All I can do is be contented with the LM and also had the Delci. Can't add another single DD set in my rotation

loving the Titan S for my pairing, its quite organic natural sounding towards neutral. a lil boring. but organic and linear is what i prefer. listening to Steely Dan , Rush , Dire Straits, SRV, Frank Zappa, Jehtro Tull, Pink Floyd, Opeth, Ghost Note , Kreator . still looking for another single dynamic or dynamic hybrid with BA. that is around RM500, Neutral with great separation. i have this for me is a habit and kinda problematic. i casually listen to music oftentimes in analytical manner. I Will always analyse about how they mix , compression, wondering thier mic technique and what instrument or amps they use.
Hi andy im listening to the s2 on fc6.. its so good. Also tried it with 4.4mm on another dac seems overmodulated.
Hi Andy, I saw days ago your review about what you consider the best gear for metal, do you think to add this Titan S2 to that gear is on par with that selection? For heavy or power metal (not just raw black hehe) do you think is a good choice? even above or in the same class as the Delci? (Talking about the same range) -cheers!
@donglemadness
7 күн бұрын
Yes absolutely. S2 expecially would suit Avan Garde or Technical Metal and definitely Power Metal, the more technical they are the better (like Audiophile grade Iron Maiden or Loudness recordings). Compared with Delci, Delci is warmer sounding as it is more Bassy too, S2 is faster with transient speed and pace

Classical, Instrumentals and Technical Jazz, for this price both 4U and S2 are excellent choice, 4U even offer more transparent experience with Monitoring/Natural mode but I can be totally satisfied with S2 equally. Can't go wrong with any one of them
Dunu did it again For the price point the best unboxing was the Whizzer HE10,now Titan S2 destroys it.

Is the sub $100 iem tuning generally shifting towards a more mibbass, less subbass approach? Im looking forward to hear your thoughts about the Juzear 61t, specially compared to DaVinci.

Not really, price doesn't influence the tuning, there's a lot of IEMs up to $3000 that are not Bassy at all with Subbass. Something like close to neutral Volare and a few others

if i have moondrop KATO, which would complement better and why ? between meze alba or dunu titan s2 ?
@donglemadness
9 күн бұрын
I don't have Alba so I have no idea how it compare to S2. But with Kato, they are totally different with tuning. Kato has been tuned to be highly flavored/colored and quite heavy with low frequencies especially Subbass, in comparison S2 would appear outright flat due to being more transparent and edge closer to neutral sound curve. S2 is also a bit more prominent with Midbass and not Subbass, so it will provide better resonance for many music type that offer percussions, stringed Bass and kick drums. Kato on the other hand would be more suited for electronic type music

How do you compare Titan S2 to Aria2 & Tanchjim 4u?
@donglemadness
10 күн бұрын
S2 is very similar to 4U with the switch set to Natural. With the S2 sounding a bit more prominent with Midbass and a little smoother with upper Mids transient speed. 4U however is truthfully neutral and transparent especially if you set to Monitoring switch. Aria2 on the other hand is tuned totally different with Harman type curve and a lot bassier too
the accessories are too good for the price. damn
