I fucking love this dude. Searching on Reddit for different headphone recommendations and then looking up reviews on KZread led me to a couple of his videos. Aside from good content, that constant smile is so fucking positive.
For over 6yrs the gr07 have been the standard(neutral sound) recommendation for 100$ price range. And now the tin t4(from china) is being considered to be a natural successor of the gr07 with a slight improvement in both sound and build. I’m really hoping that you get your hands on these and hear your impressions. Lol man I miss your reviews!
You are always my go to guy for headphone reviews. Thank you :)

+Grizzly Adams you're welcome!
Just got a pair of Classic 07's today, and i've gotta say that i'm really am loving the sound of them! They have this sort of crispy warmth to them that are so nice to listen to. Sounds are precise and snappy without feeling too artificially mechanical or surgical if you will. Your review was one of the things that swayed me to try them out, so thanks for the great video and impressions.

Haha, funny you share that and also thanks for reminding me I posted this. The right side volume of my 07's is now way lower than the left, and I haven't been able to properly enjoy them for several months now. Shame, as i really enjoyed their sound, but it does seem like their durability and build has issues.
He is one of best reviewers of headphones and ear buds out there. Bravo! I bought the GR-07 based on his review and I am very happy about my purchase.
hey Lacklan, I subscribed because you know what you are saying, and your quite good at it. and because you enjoy doing it. keep it up!
Another brilliant review- thanks and keep 'em coming! =)
Thank you for your video, really helped me to make a choice without too much hesitation. :)
thanks for explaining about bio cellulose drivers love my d2000 even more now :)
Thanks for the review Lachlan! Got mine today since I've been wanting a breather from my Sony XBA-4. Love the negative profile. The treble is very good, dry, and bass well-extended, not as punchy as my XBA-4, but I can live w/ that. Unfortunately, the ear guides are the same ones as the VSonic VSD3/3S ㅠㅠ.
good review keep up the good work
Nice review.
Thanks for the respond. Despite what you said, I ended up going with the XBA-30s, and after listening to them for about 20 hours now I love them. Exactly what I wanted, their only downside being 12 ohm output impedance.. lucky for me I have an iphone 4/clip + both with ~1 ohm impedance. They sound much different on my nfb11.32 (2ohms), less bass and more harsh highs. I may pick up the XBa-c10 later when I am in japan, look amazing for price.
Good review Lachlan, whats your next review!?
thanks again for the review! i just want to clarify the re400s aren't "fully sealed" they do have a port on the bottom of them (near the strain relief) but isolation is still very good! i'm excited to hear about the new lineup from vsonic.. recently heard on head-fi the gr06 is gone from the website, i'm assuming their revamping their ENTIRE LINEUP
Got the AN16, which is a GR07 driver in a GR06 shell. Sounds good.
Just stumbled on your channel, and you are my favorite audio reviewer on youtube, I look forward for your upcoming videos for sure! Just wanted your opinion on what IEM I should get (only one, and id use it for running and travel too) - My main rig is HE-500s and I absolutely love their sound signature. I listen solely to electronic music. Ones ive looked into are XBA-30s, RE-400s, and gr07s, possibly XBA-40s, but sound too picky/ colored for me. Your opinion would be valued!
would you recommend these over the RE400 (on LG v30)..or would a high imp one like the Rha cl750's sound better than these..any recommendations ?
How is this compare to RHA Ma 750?
Are these alot more sibilant than the Beyer DT880s/T1 (I own both so they're my sibilance reference)? My RE-400s have imbalance issues and are going back for warranty... dunno if I should ask for a replacement or upgrade/side grade to these.
Woo I see a hot chip album... you my friend have great taste in music...
Very detailed review, thank you! Where did you purchase your GR07?
how do these compare with the hifiman re-400 ?
He listens to Radio Lab (my favourite podcast)! I saw it on his screen in the background.
Hey lachlan. Great job on all ur iem reviews. I was wondering if u can compare the klipsch image x10i with any similar products at the price range of $100 to $150. I was thinking of the klipsch x10i, jvc fxd80z, or vsonic gr07.. I am looking for clarity and good highs. Bass is important also.
great review ! do u need an amp for the thing ? if yes wat model are u using?
Hi, I have been watching few of your videos and trying to see how your listening likes match mine. You mention the Audio Technica ATH-IM02 was your favorite in one video, but mentioned this GRO7 is similar but has some high end extension. I do prefer a bit of exaggerated highs because I was some hearing loss from age and music volumes Ive listened to. Now to the question, have you heard all of the versions of the GRO7, and do you have a preference? Thanks for taking the time!
@lachlanlikesathing What are the new versions of these headphones called? I haven't heard of them. When will they be released?
i have the m50x's and im planning to get these .Could you tell me how these sound compared to the m50x's.Thanks
Great review, pls make a quick recommendation between this and hifiman re 400. ..which is more neutral and detailed in treble region
@lachlanlikesathing
10 жыл бұрын
The GR07 is more forward and textured in the treble. It sounds more detailed but is probably less neutral.
Hi lachlan thanks for this video! Could you do a Mark 2 version of this please, I am choose between GR07 MK2 and Sennheiser IE7. cheers
Hey Lachlan, i'm trying to decide between the GR07/GR07 BE, T-PEOS H100RR and JVC FXD80. I use a Fiio X3 DAP and like listening to female vocals and piano. Any tips? thank you!
Will you be taking a look at the GR07 Classic that have just been released?
A bit of help, I am looking into GR 07 bass edition and Yamaha EPH-100. i am no audio expert but i can say that i like the way my ATH-M-50 sound so a bit of help on this would be nice. i would use the IEMs mostly in the gym.
Should I get the GR07 BE over the Dunu Titan 1 if I listen to a lot of electronic, bass-centric music?
hey @laclanlikesathing ! i was wondering if you heard any news about the new vsonic lineup. i'm interested in gettting the gr06 (for their midcentric sound, never heard of a iem with that sound signature).. but i'm not sure whether to wait for it or just snatch one up now
Could you review the musical fidelity eb-33s, please
Hey I find your reviews very useful and informative. I was wondering if you can recommend me the most durable earphones for 100 dollars or less. I have gone through 5 pairs of earphones in 6 months and I just want one that sounds good and one that wont break at least for a year.
hello! thank you for all your videos! I have seen like 20 this night. I have a question, I have a cowon c2 music player, and I want to know what in ear headphones do you recommend me? I am between Shure SE215, VSonic GR07 and BOSE in ear. I have 100 USD. do you recommend me one of those headphones or another ones? Thank you again! Great job in the videos!
Got my GR07.BEs back today from China,,All Good :-)
Hi What a great review!!! I want to buy this one but dont know where to buy. Can u give me some trustable website? Thank you?
Where I can find this vsonic? Which online shop thank you
I miss mine Gr07mк1. How great they sounded 🥲
Hi lachlan.. can u review vivo xe800 which is having almost same specs as GR07 and post a video. VIVO XE800 is available at aliexpress and is under $20.
You should do a review of the Vsonic VSD1S it's really nice the best earphone under 100 dollar seriously.
what is the best in-ear headphone to buy under $175.Thanks
Sorry for the mislead. I compared it to a over the ear beats i have heard before. Never heard the IEM though my friend have one. I might ask to hear it now.
I have got the FIIO EX1 and I'm haply with that purchase... But now I think I need some different sounding earphones.. Do you think the GR07 BE would be a good update to ex1 or I should go with the vsonic vsd5s ?
@scuba453

Hi, I also have the EX1 and am looking at GR07BE. Did you buy them? I heard that they are soon upgrading them to have detachable cables. Maybe I wait for that as the cable is known to be a weak spot.
i need to buy an IEM.. after seeing lots of review, i found these IEM are good Vsonic GR07/ Vsonic VC1000 / HifiMan RE-400.which one i should buy. or suggest me a better IEM within 125$. thanks
hey lachlan, did the new version of the GRO7 get released? Always good reviews bro....thanks

Pik thanks mate, I have read the headfi threads on the gr07X but I think I'll wait a bit to see how they go, cheers anyway
Also, fyi most of the electronic music I listen to is in the hardcore/synth/happyhardcore/ female japanese vocal genre so i prefer slightly forward mids and as people say for the HE-500s a slight *sparkle* to the highs, bass I don't really care as long as it isn't coloured too much in either direction as it is accurate and doesn't bleed over to other sounds.
May I ask why there's a cultural revolution style poster on the wall?
this one or shure 215?
Is RHA T20 good for Heavy Metal Music??? or go for Shure SE 425?? I really like harsh Treble...........

I don't think I would be getting the Mk 2 variant. There's a lot written already about the differences! At some point I will get a chance to listen to the BE, but for now I am looking forward to new products from Vsonic.
Did you ever heard of vivo xe800? They say its redesign of the gr07.
are VSONIC in -ear earphones produced by oem producer VTSONIC?
Can u please compare these to the yamaha eph 100 and the sony xb90ex? Thank you!
how do they compare to the VC1000?
would like to ask how they compare with a senn ie8?

heyy please review fiio ex1/dunu titan 1
if you like comfort of the cables on the original, you should def get the mkII (or the classic if it uses the same cable). the cable is apparently more bendable than the original, which explains why i dont even need ear hooks for them to stay over my ear! all it takes is moving the adjustable piece 1.5 inches above the Y joint.
What better to buy this or senh ie80?
how are the isolation on these
Hey, thank you so much for your reviews! Just one question: Can you lay down on the side with the gr07?

Hi, I'm looking for a good pair circa £100. i love Queen music and old rock, especially vocals and harmonies. I currently use AKG 451 which are great but I want a decent IEM for running. Again I'm looking for a pair that will play clear vocal harmonies as well as decent sound-stage. Any help much appreciated. I'm also looking at RHA ma750 and Soundmagic E50 (i liked the SM e10s a lot, but looking to buy a more expensive pair).

Can ANYONE shed some unbiased light between these and the hifiman songbird for punchy bass and clarity??????
hi bro, gr07 better than zs10 pro?
Really looking at these and the Shure SE425s... Strangely heard that these even beat out the se530 which seems odd to me because of the price difference. Thoughts?

Great Review! I've been looking for a new midrange IEM since my turbines broke. What would your preference be b/w the SE215 ($99), Gr07 Bass ($140) or Westone ADV alpha ($150)? I'm into most types of music but mainly electronic/alternative. Is the GR07 a "fun" IEM?
@lachlanlikesathing

The GR07 is the best all rounder, but if you want something fun go for the Yamaha EPH-100!
Sir, how much price?
Hi, Lachlan great review as always ^_^ FYI I bought my very first portable headphone which is the ATH ES-700 based on your review and I find it as a very good headphone (thanks) Now I'm thinking of buying an IEM which is also an all rounder but leaned a bit towards rock music (IMHO the ES700 doesn't deliver rock music quite to my liking), so what would u recommend? Since I live in Mainland China, I'm thinking of getting one of those VSonics, and it has come down to 2 choices, the bass version of this gr07 or Vsonic VC1000 Maybe u have something else in mind besides those 2, as long as it is around the same price range it is still okay Thanks Lachlan, aaand I've subscribed, haha

buy them from lendmeurears or penonaudio. really good customer service from those guys. i bought a product from lendmeurears and even after thirty days, they offered to replace my product if it gives me problems. I did let them know the sound dropped on the right ear during the first day I received the item and then it stopped happening so after 2 weeks of use without reoccurence I decided to keep it. They said if it happens at all, just let them know and they'll replace it.
