do you guys have knowledge when it comes to home theater setups?
my knowledge is that you need an insane amount of money
do you know any soundbars that's upgradable?
like for now i'll buy a soundbar with a subwoofer, a 3.1 soundbar would be good
and later upgrade it to 5.1 with surround speakers
I mean thats just adding more speakers, no?
The first number is just the total number of speakers and the second after . Is the numbers of subwoofers
nope, sound systems nowadays are built to be bought in a set but i heard there are brands that are upgradable, since in most soundbars you can't add additional speakers or subwoofer
Oh I see
The best chance is asking in audiophile servers ig
Since it's more niche

theres a bunch from ultimea
then u can later upgrade to a higher tier ones also from ultimea
or sony
for 5.1
theres jbl too
samsung also make 3.1 soundbars
so go take a look at them too
lads should i just go with space travel is there a good one
my buds 2 is dying and im looking for recommendations
buds 4
Artti t10 are the best iems i could ever experience but meh got hit by the qc
second time i am having to resolder and really fragile right side
i think I am just gonnal sell them and maybe buy another set
trying to see offers but there is not really much impressive at that price range aside of t10's
I just tried out the CMF Headphone Pro and gotta say it got a pretty much similar sound profile to the Sony WH-CH720N.
I tested with no EQ since I have to download the app and I didn't want to. A build quality, plastic plus fingerprint magnet, just only a few minutes of trying the thing out my ears get pretty hot (a part that I just finished with playing maimai) I did not really recommend using this while working out.
In the range of ANC $100 headphones it's ok. I didn't try out the "bass scroller" thingy cuz it needs to be active via the app. Third party apps pretty much don't help with the sound quality, everything is just plain.
Trying out a few songs from rhythm games and it's a total abomination to listen to, everything is mixed together where bass kind of separates a bit the rest is 🗿. With ~70% volume I still think it's quiet, compared to CH720N which is way more louder.
Verdict: CMF Headphone Pro claimed to be "Best $100 ANC Headphones" I agree with that? it's bang for a buck, but if only focus on sound quality? No. I'd rather pick CH720N over this one even though it's $20-30 more expensive than CMF.
Credit to Mr. Plubplet for recommend this to me
would try it out myself before recommending but theres none available here at the local
🥺
I mean it's good but not really my type
the moment I tried out my friend XM6 and its just no turning back

try bose qcu2 if u get a chance
the sound "should" be better
theres none at my local shop
grrr

Yesterday I was looking out for Bose too but couldn't find it
but im going to japan again soon
I was at PowerBuy yesterday
so i might get a chance to try more
wao rich
theres everything in big camera looool
none in my powerbuy except the cheap ass random brand i dont know
my powerbuy is so shit
💀
Ahhh fuck
Monarch with cayin ru7/ru9 is so fucking good
This combination just fuckin ate everything
except those ultra layer genre only planars really get them
holy rich wtf
naw i just trying the demo on store
im having fun ☺️
tangzu review?
Looks clean
XM6 only one down size
idk if it's just only me but XM6 when holding, you immediately can tell shit gonna snap like Lays chips
i got scammed by seller
the mk2 is $30 msrp and he sold me it for $46...
even the waner is a little overpriced
should've checked the market first.
could've bought one more mk2 if i wasn't so stupid. damn, i failed basic scalpers bulshit, I'll never mentally recover from this
ill forever live knowing i got scammed by scalpers 

yeah lmao
xm5 is way worse
they "fixed" it by changing the inside hinge to better material
Damn
I don't know about Lan 2 but Dawn MS seems to be a good choice for the price
I wish they were more of RITA reviews
Not even sure if there are any Lan 2 demo in indo
Haven't seen many new things when I was at the store
I don't know why but this give the same vibes as ULT WEAR
Sony is making some big promises with the new WF-1000XM6 earbuds: “the best noise cancelation,” “higher call quality,” “enhanced comfort,” and what they claim is their most “ideal sound” yet. We took these to the lab to see whether the substance lives up to the hype, and the higher price tag.
🛒 Buy the Sony WF-1000XM6 on Amaz...
stay tuned
(if i get the chance to buy it)
or maybe not
I wonder if PowerBuy gonna have a sample I lowkey wanna try it
i was thinking the same
i saw it listed in powerbuy website but then it got removed
lmao
now its 404
💀
I'm not really a fan of ANC earbuds since I often forget where I put it
Worse case is I lost it when I went to uni
huh?
just say earbuds in general bro
specifying anc is crazyyyy
or just say wireless

lol
anc mode got shit tons of sub bass lmaoo
Got a review by Chinese reviewer where he compare Rita to Moondrop Edge. Turns out Rita is better but in terms of the sound details Edge is better
(Both ANC is totally ass)
just buy an earplug if you want good anc
trueee
That's just passive noise cancelling
idk chat but my charger sound is pretty clean
tf
Huh
Bros listening to current flow ASMR
I just try out Sony WH-1000XM4 and XM5 review soon
spoiler: they are ass
idk why but bose are so hard to find in a physical shop
i cant find them anywhere
💀
Indeed they're hard
@cursive wren btw have you tried any Sennheisers?
Their tws
Side To Side Comparasion between Sony WH-1000XM4 and Sony WH-1000XM5
fyi. #1 I will use emoji to mark thing down (🟢 for XM4 and 🟣 for XM5)
fyi. #2 Every thing I said is stock sound, I may have mention EQ (after tuned) in specific part.
No.1 — Build Quality + Design
🟢 XM4 when holding I can tell it is pretty solid. It didn't feels like any cheap plastic because of the weight 256g (I guess?) since this is came out 4 years ago the design is pretty much the same as any generic headphone you see on the market.
🟣 XM5 in the other hand, design is way more modern, when holding side to side to XM4 is slightly lighter but trade off with the popular "hinge issue", this particular hinge is something that I could say it's fragile as hell.
Unlike XM6 model where the hinge has magnate support (I think?) when you twist it you can tell there is some kind of support into it.
Now back to XM5, there is no support is between the hinge it just follow the gravity which is major issue. However, it's unenviaable Both XM5 and XM6 when holding it feels like both the hinge and the head support can break anytime when you holding it. (Yes, contrast from the previous paragraph)
Verdict of Build Quality + Design
🟢 Sony WH-1000XM4 get a point.
No.2 — Sound Quality
🟢 XM4.
Bass : It delivers of what I can say full potential. It gives a lot of enegy which I enjoy it for around 1 or 2 mins then I have to crank bass down by -2dB. However, just my personal taste it would be better if stock sound actually sapaerate the bass layers out, not just a single chunk of something that kicks into my ears.
Mid : Vocals is very clear, I could tell it's pretty solid, no diving under the bass despite it's way louder. I forgot to test with male voice but female voices has no problem.
Treble : Another trade off point of this series. Treble sounds super muddy, it has no clarity, any bg noise like hissing sound or any effects that in this range is like you blend everything into one and you got what seemingly an abomination of treble. And even probably worse than any sub $100 Headphones I tried.
🟣 XM5.
Bass : If it's isn't bass kicking part in the song, this has nothing compared to XM4. In this range even with +5dB this is not helping at all. Bass still feel muddy but not that kind of muddy in my opinion, some may find this probably sweet spot but, once again, I wish it was better.
Mid : Vocals are clears, although singer kind of hide under the layer of bass a bit but with EQ tune by +1dB or +2dB everything will be fine.
Treble : In this range, I could say they done pretty good job, effects, any hissing sound is actually there not drowning under the Mariana Trench.
Conclusion
If you want something that gives you energy go with XM4 and that's no brain choice. But if you want more details go with XM5.
Verdicts of Sound Quality
🟢 XM4 takes another point. Although, XM5 is also acceptable but very nieche, consider by the majority of consumer.
No.3 Comfort
🟢 XM4 is an old model but if you want something that is fits around your head and feel sturdy, this is the option. Although, I'm pretty sure wearing it for a period of time, it will surely become uncomfortable. The pads and the headband surely after a few years of using, it will disinigrate like Thanos snap.
🟣 XM5, in my opinion, it's way way more much comfortable, pads and headbands seem to not wear off that easily (I guess?). Wearing for the long period of time I think it's not really a problem. If compared to XM4 is this better.
Verdict for Comfort
🟣 XM5 got the point here.
Conclusion
Both deliver different sound stages while the XM4 is aim into the bass and XM5 is aiming at Mid-Treble, both is amazing but like I said there's always a trade off point.
I'm not going to say which one is better since both ahs trade off point.
🟢 go for XM4 if you want something handy and won't break easily. The only downside you may have to deal with is treble.
🟣 go for XM5 if you want something that is balanced, detailed. But you have to deal with the hinge (well, both user issue and company issue) and lack of bass impact.
Extra if you want XM5 and your budget is not a problem just buy XM6 and you will be fine.
do not buy xm5 😭
it will break even if you put proper care into it
choose either xm4 or xm6
I know it's read flag but imma ignore anyways kekw xm5 sound decent enough for me

actually I just realized when I was looking at the price tag that XM4 is more expensive than XM5
XM4 demands still continue while the production already ended
do not ignore this broooo
its not worth the money
you have to account for reliability
How long tws s last
I bought samsung buds2 when came out with ny phone
Feels like its begging me to be put down
It sometimes lags or disconnects
Like when head is in some position or wearing helmet or like when laying on bed with it
I think i used it more than 10k.hours
if 10k hrs of usage then that wouldn't be surprising
your TWS has entered the sixth stage of grief already
I was kinda overexaggerating but could be true someday i would use it for like 10h plus or smth ,someday 2 3 . but generally i averaged it around 10k , however the battery is degraded a little bit , main issue is the connectivity where it kinda just disconnects xD
funny enough the left buds has most problem where it just refuses to charge if you put it lightly in case
I think that is probably one of the most common issues when you use TWS
i was thinking about getting the new buds 4
i never actually tried like airpod style tws and i quite liked the design of buds2
case is kinda bad though its like live granade where you just drop and 2 buds fly away like 10meter
Apple's audio products are great ||if EQ was a thing||
I used to own one TWS but lost it at the university
Should I get a headphone if i have a budget of <50usd?
For me a starter headphone starts at $100
But there are good headphones that are at less than 50 dollars in price bracket
Something like koss ksc75 maybe
That's what some audiophile recommends
If you're talking about wireless headphones, then I don't know, since less than $50 is flooded with electronic junks
open back?
im kinda looking for a headphones too ngl
Ye
i follow this guy on Tiktok and he recommended this
Moondrop Old Fashioned
oh it's on-ear
Sure Ig, I haven't checked it myself. So try checking your fav reviewers about it.
If I'm gonna guess the tuning is going to be focused at vocals just like any moondrop
trying out galaxy buds 4 pro rn
and holy its good as hell
has UHQ support for samsung devices
(tho its already in buds 3 too i think)
oh yeah i forgot
this is with my EQ lol
with good EQ the vocals and bass are amazing
Speaking of earbuds now the time passes, my desire in between earbuds and headphone is the same level
but my desire for you is increasing everyday


Bought new tws
my amgrass tws battery health is bein shitty
sound quality is fine
The bass not not much bassy
The vocal while listening to music is quite decent
@cursive wren
🤤
that thing is so comfy to wear bro
comfier than the air pods pro
If I still use Samsung that would be another choice
its so fire baby
i think my Zero 2s are about to fail soon, correct me if im wrong. The right piece got channel imbalance so the left piece is sounding like usual but the right piece is noticeably weaker
i thought it was just moisture that would go away once i wrap it up in a towel and store it in a dry place overnight. That's how I did it before when I do a mistake during cleaning and it always worked
tho I wouldn't blame build quality. I lost the metal plastic filter thing some time ago and I thought it wouldn't be an issue later. But then here I am
^this filter thing
Time to buy s
buy s?
S12 pro
these? damn they're expensive
They're good (if eq'ed)
Letshuor s08
anyone who uses zero2 do you guys change your iem's cable?
i have
the stock cable's durability is bad
thankfully the Jcally cable @stars recommended to me is a really good replacement for what it's worth
also short update, i read a dumb fix on reddit. It said to suck lightly on the tip and it worked
Suck?
yea
How does that work?
sucking the tips?
damn the white mesh thing? u poked that with needles?
yea
hey at least drop the cable's name 
I'm confused about one thing, does cable (excluding DSP) change how the driver sounds? Or is it just a sugar pill effect
Not as in better sound quality, but the frequency response
no
people buy cables just for preference
but some cable is better (can prevent corrosion)
I understand that
i dont mind with my stock zero 2 but it feels too mushy 💀
But what makes me question this, is the other day they recommended me X, and when I asked why not Y, it's because it doesn't fit with iem
No as in the sound
since there's like 2 pin cable
what
eartips can make a difference
but not the cable
they're only there to transfer the audio signal
unless mayyybe you're buying like a 1000usd+ iem
but by then the sound difference between it and lower price bracket is almost negligible
in any case, cable for preference, stiff or smooth, short or long, 4.4 or 3.5, with mic or w/o mic
eartips can affect the sound like the treble and bass
cant say much but people here knows better than me
thinking of getting galaxy buds 4 pro
theres pre order discount
like 50$ discount
but i want to buy new chair and table first
and table accessories for cleaner setup
and nail polish,,,,,,,,
and so much more,,,,,,,

go buy them in priorities first man
O yeah I find 4.4 abit funny
Why do they use 4.4 when the cable length is only less than 2m
Aside from power
yesss
bcs why not
those people who use 4.4 have those audio dac thing
noooo
my full speed internet ran out
gg ...
now im on noob slow internet
(i think)
I mean yeah but doesn't it look like a hurdle
I'm not criticizing the hobby, I'm just asking the reason why people use 4.4 when it's not even long enough to account for Audi distortion
It's fine if you can't answer
yea let's leave that question to people in here
the only thing i know about 4.4m is that they got more power
i went the extra step and pried the filters out with a needle. Then i threaded the black mesh underneath to spread it equally. Now im positive they sound back to normal
why i did it? idk if it was placebo but they still felt just a tad bit unbalanced even after my first attempt at fixing
I do plan to replace the filters entirely but I haven't found the exact same filters on Shopee, AliExpress, and Temu
Amazon has one but combined with shipping it'll cost as much as a brand new pair of the Zero 2s
WTF?
nice
if you wanna eq and use it across a lot of devices sure
and need some volume boost
if u want to eq + higher volume
but generally its unnecessary
tf
when u say dac you mean integrated dac right
amp + dac
mainly depend on what iem/headphone you are using
im personally using the moondrop dawn 2 as my dac rn
bcs firstly it give ur high higher volume
secondly it does "change" the sound to something i prefer over just using the normal 3.5mm
for me at least
but it depends on wht chip the dac uses too
if it has some fake chip then its pointless buying tht dac
it depends on wht iems u use honestly
if u have good iems, it is really recommended to just get a dac instead
difference between dongle and a dac is that dac slightly improve ur sound quality
on a dongle, ive tried it myself u can actually hear those static white noises, so even if u played a video and the video actually had no sounds in it, u can literally hear a white static noise
just get a jcally jm6 pro if ur on a budget
it got cx31993 chip which is good
do u smash your stuff daily
I have to get a new one every 4-5 months
I guess a part of me that I always put it in the pocket
Is the truthear iem still worth using in 2026?
Still better than some of the newer models
Not really
All the sub 100 portable dac
Is equally trash
Implementation
Doesnt mean shit

The ultimate noise cancellation
QRT: ihateurocky
Bro someone's Galaxy Buds FE exploded in their ear, resulting in permanent hearing loss 💀

2million dollar law suit
goodluck man
oh its an FE
unfortunate
i ordered buds 4 pro bro no way they explodin on me
im ganna sue them for 10milllion if it explodes
true
?????
THAT'S A LAWSUIT THERE
happened in 2024
planned to buy akliam pd6 soon has anyone tried it here?
Just tried buds 4/4pro . Sounds anc wise its good but
Fit was horrendous
I am taking the old buds2 design over it
was perfect for me
Maybe i need to do some tip rolling or something
even better fit than the airpods pro
I wonder there are 3rd party tips out yet
I have quite large ear so that might be problem
💀
new dac
Is moondrop space travel 2 good? I wanna get an earbud for around that price range
Space Travel series overall is positive
if u can stretch a bit go for the space travel 2 ultra
unless if u dont wanna go over a bit and get a tws that can fall out on its case
do NOT update the software if you're buying ST2U
I guess I can stretch a bit, just need to sacrifice the leather case for the transparent one
if you ask me
the leather case is really good
it reallyhelped me as i dropped the case a few times...
Oh yeah I got the leather case, it got discount during checkout
history repeats itself ahh
Okay I'm dumb, @dull wind why does my st2 ultra have separate bluetooth connection? My phone only allows one and it's either left or right. How to connect both?
Nvm I accidentally solved it by leaving it unconnected from the phone + outside the case while I shower
How does one 1DD+ bone conduction driver works
Kineras new "gaming" iem has this combo. I thought usually its either bone conduction or other drivers
Bone conductor is a gimmick
Doesn't work at all or?

holy dirts
Ew300 goated pick
This is fantech trinity MH88
dsp version tho, not really a basshead
I do realize im listening to speedcore edms most of the times so i had to find some planar drivers lmao
transient response on dd is crazy
same i listen to dariacore

need me a fast iem
ikr i used to listen to tht one guy noaki
oh that
but tht genre is too underrated
listen to extratone
listen to nursery rhymes
Yea just remove the filter
Ever since i removed the filter there was zero issue after that
Moondrop gotta take note whenever they're ready to release chu 3
well it's almost eid
Raid the storage house
atp imma just go to a store
at least i have more than 1 new cables now
hey guys, i bought my gramma on jul 19 2024 a sony WH-CH520 headphones, but they seem to have died from being charged everyday, the guaranty on the amazon page says is 2 years, but id like to know if there are better and/or more durable options for bluetooth headsets instead
nvm using the guaranty isnt an option aparently, she burned the plastic thing that goes in the outter ear so it looks damaged even tho that isnt the issue, so anyway, any recomendations?
@main haven maybe?
||sorry for ping||
Try turning it in for warranty anyways
And please for the love of god, tell her to not charge them every day, they have 50 hour battery life
She can use it for 2 whole days before charging them
sending it to them isnt free so i thought i can just buy a new batery and change it myself, as for the dont charge them everyday thing, tell that to my gramma, i already told her but seems like they did not live as near as 50h so she since the beggining had to charge them bassically everyday
Welp, try changing battery urself
maybe it wasnt new (although the packaging seemed to be new) so maybe thats why they didnt live that long because of that
If you're concerned about durability, just buy her some cable headphones and fiio btr11
she doesnt want cable
Fiio BTR11 is for BT compatibility
the tv in the left and the bed (where she is 90% of the time) in the right of the rectangular shaped room
i already told her about what options we could use while using headphones with cable but
yea she doesnt seem to like the idea
Does she feel confortable with in ear?
besides, she told me to buy something already, so i found this https://www.amazon.es/dp/B0BYWMLVG1
If yes, buy her IEMs with BT cable thing
o
nope, thats why i had to buy headphones last time too
at least ifixit has a guide on replacing the sony's battery so i wont go into it completely blindfolded
They are ok by some feedback I had from friends who used them back then
I can help you
when u have the tools

Send them to me 
idk tho
i could do that too yea
ill ask her
Nah, try fixing urself, go get some experience
i lowk do want to do it myself
only thing is i need a soldering iron and idk if i need another tool more for stuff that needs soldering and unsoldering
Maybe solder sucking tool
And some copper thing to clean solder out of the boards
But mostly with soldering iron and some tin is enough
nah she doesnt have more money so i wont be able to get soldering stuff for now
not a priority anyways
a single song cost 167mb im so cooked
how long is that song
just 3 minutes and a half lol
ooowh nvm i found out why it's so big
somehow i got the 24bit instead of the standard 16 bit lol
That one is hires one
Ofc it's way larger
flexing flac size is crazy
im broke man i only torrent them😭
torrents are really good somehow cuz they even got cd quality

who doesnt.....
because they are lossless
its literally in its name
no i mean
im surprised u can still find specific genre songs torrenting
u wouldn't expect to get metal bar asmr 1 hour on torrent with cd quality
torrents are from every part of the world
everyone has access to it
it depends if people are willing to upload it online
even the most niche stuff are there lmao
is this soulseek?
yea
two of them lmao
rich
how is it compared to
like samsung buds2 or
something like oneplus anker etc
i got buds 2 but its telling me just let me die
i was planning to get the buds 4 pro but 250usd is litlle too steep
so moondrop tws s are on my list with other buds like samsung buds 3 fe
i dont have the samsung buds
its ok for the price i guess, the thing that i only like on it is the anc mode
got this for 30 bucks
is it just me or is that a really big ass anime eye mouse pad
mat
or whatever u call it
yeah its one of my mousepads
wraith glimpse
something something
i thought i was tripping because the first time i saw it i thought its a floor or something
Should i buy proper dac or iem ? I got 2 dongle with cx31993 and waner 2 and kinera wyvern qing and nd venus(which i dont use much)
What are good dacs
Thats actually worth its price
I am not planning to buying any planars or big heapdhones
So i dont think i need high powers
yeah no what u have is absolutely enough
So new iem then
If i buy like cadenza 2 would it big significant amount of upgrade
From what i have
All of iem i own is single dd and cadenza is single dd aswell
depends
popular picks are shanling ua4
trn black pearl
moondrop dawn
blon v1
ibasso
fiio
snowsky
probably not
cheapest option is probably fiio ja11
or some cx31993 dongles
tbh i recommend to try the DACs on offline stores
I do have ja11 and jmcally one
Ja11 braids are falling off
Jmcally is kinda broken it still works but 1 2 of the wires are broken
well if u want an upgrade
probably TRN black pearl
power DAC
also take advantage of the 4.4
💀
no offense but how do yall get ur dac broken
Pocketing it with the phone
dam
I get one new dongle
Maybe once in a year
Then i thought if i get something sturdy or premium
They would last long
thing is, premium stuffs tend to make u babysit them more like its fragile af

any space travel 1 and 2 users here?
how are the sound quality
because im thinking to get one
or is there any other alternative?
@shadow mountain how much is rm130 and converted to usd?
@verbal peak It’s roughly 27 or 28 dollars, depending on the exchange rate. Honestly, for a traveler as perpetually short on funds as I am, even that small amount sounds like a decent meal and a warm bed for the night. Why do you ask? Are you planning to offer it to me?
ok fuck it my budget is around 30 usd yeah
Yo guys is it safe to use my dongle dac to an active speaker?
oh?
@dull wind @proper quarry does this already been fixed?
no apparently
just leave the sofrware as it is
https://www.reddit.com/r/Earbuds/comments/1r9pdit/moondrop_space_travel_2_ultra_firmware_updated/
i saw this post though
thats why im asking
and if u did then there's nothing you can do but return it
im thinking getting one myself
oh it's fixed
so did you returned yours?
nope
i need to double confirm brah
the seller refund so low
can you like check maybe 👉🏻👈🏻
so i just keep it since it doesnt really affect me too much except the ldac which is useless since you cant use the tuning
If you didn’t know on release the 1.6.0 firmware update was bugged which made the app recognize it as the normal Space Travel 2 instead of the Ultra version which means user lost access to LDAC. Even worse is this issue isn’t reversible so people needed to get replacement units. This post is essentially telling fellow owners that it’s finally fixed
it's for people who havent applied the bugged update
oh
since mine is still recognised as ST2 so nothing i could do
yea
i did give an update to moondrop through email, even they cant do anything about it
you bought yours from shopee right?
yes
its fine, a good to go tws for outside use i guess, buncha bass but i think the mid bass is tight, good anc
i rarely go outside so i dont really use tws

monarch mk4? Nah, i prefer tesla electric waves
damn bro gotta flex the stickers as well
i see what you mean
also moondrop app is eh
it works
but i use poweramp to tune it and holy
yea the stock tune is not really that good
i had to use the tuning in the moondrop app
you have to use the moondrop app to change the sound profile
then you can tune it in poweramp after
without moondrop app tuning its horrible
yes u should tune it
the upper mids and treble sounds compressed and muddy, its better to tune it for more bass focused
even if ur not a basshead, its better than the original tune cuz somehow its targeting more on treble lmao
i am having problem downloading music from soulseek using hostel wifi is there any way for config or other way around

Has anyone tried harmonic empire iems or the dongle. Its appearantly sub brand of tangzu
One above looks like
Crack
If it sounds normal would be fine though
yeah ill just wait and see if it extends after a few weeks
if it does then ill try to get it repaired
idek i think it just spawned while i was looking at the iem again earlier 💀
If the sound wasn't messed up,then you're good
Just make sure you are putting your iem on the given pouch bag
When not in use
Nothing Headphone (a) reviews
Went outside and touched some grass today, so maybe a good time to try this one out. Although I kind of forgot to test something out since I'm with my friends.
(as usual no EQ tuned, 80% volume)
Comfort:
The headphones body, it's had some weight in it when holding in my hand, for me not really a choice if I have to bring this everywhere.
Bass:
Overall I'd say it is pretty solid, you get that punchy kick in your ears, however, the kick that punches into my ears feels like a somewhat glass shard-ish but I think with some EQ tuning could be better.
Bass Verdict: good but could be better.
Midranges:
For vocals, when I first tested with the song that had no vocals, I thought the bass was going to cover up all the vocals but for female vocals is pretty clear. For male vocals on the other hand, I have that feeling that is kind of under the surface.... to elaborate this feels like there's an extremely small layer that covers the vocal up.
For instruments, is not that distinctive level where you can hear each instrument play separately, but it's not that level where everything is mixing together and turning into a fucking abomination sounds of mids.
Mids Verdicts: ok I think...?
Treble:
After I tested a few headphones, I swear the god they have one thing in common is super sharp noise that piercing into my ears. For background noise/effect, is barely noticeable. Just tune the thing down for a little bit.
Treble Verdicts: ehh kind of mid.
Overall Verdicts:
Despite everything bad points about this particular headphones, for the prices listed around sub $200, I think it's one of the choices that you would not regret if you bought it. With some EQ tunes is fine.
If you like sharp sounds this is the one I would recommend.
To give a score (each out of 5)
Bass - 4.5 out of 5
Mids - 3.8 out of 5
Treble - 3 out of 5
Comfort - 3 out of 5
Total - 14.3 out of 20
I'm somewhat dizzy while writing this so...

Whats best earbuds like under 100usd or 50usd atm
I am still using my samsung buds 2
But brother wanted headphones . I recommend him some iems but he decided to go with like bluetooth anc headphones
"Yeah I clearly see the budget range but let me just recommend one over the budget because why not"

he is looking for like earbuds ig
chinese earbuds are stacked with features but not sure
he is intrested in cmf buds 2
those are ok
What about like earfun air 4 pro
Looked the specs
Its almost par with other good ones
For ur kz iem?
my zero:2
Wow
Ancient debris
What IEM can I get at the price of rm100
I have bought Wan er 1 as my first iem and I got mixed feeling about it
Since I have used TWS first before iem
Which are Realme Airbuds 3 and INFINIX AI Buds
Let me know if I have to increase my budget a little
For sounds, I'm more of a bass guy I would say,
Wan er 1 do feel light in that aspect
personally the first iems i tried (and only) are kz edc pro for 5€ so sorry if its a bad recommendation, but with eq i liked how the lows and highs can feel since they can show good air if that makes sense (im so bad at describing sound xd)
Maybe consider Tangzu Waner 2 Red Lion Edition
thats what i thought
yeah its wide too, but i mean like, the sound is open? not as in space but as in the feeling, like u can hear the air in the singer's voice or something like that
this is the eq profile i use on the kz edc pro's
the last slider is the one that helps the most with the air (i still dont know if thats the right way to describe it)
kz edx pro was my first iem, it is bassy as hell, in return its muddy as shit as well
hmm maybe it is just that i forgot how they actually sound with the bigger eartips, but personally at least they are not thaaat bassy
since i lost one of the bigger eartips that came with the iems i had to go with the midsized ones and those did lose a lot of bass so i had to add it with eq
(my pc crashed w)
😭
No but like I have kz edx pro x rn
How is it for you personally
Or you just EQ it
Better than rm2.40 earphones at eco shop that breaks down in a week
💔💔💔
What's red lion
red lion is red lion
Search wan er 2 red lion bass edition
imagine if theres a blue lion
i'd say it'll definitely go darker tuned

thatll be sick tho
i thought red lion is bass edition tf
it is bass edition
how's vivian?
is there like new bugdet king iems under 50 usd
i am thinking about picking up some chinese iem or any when i am visitng shanghai i heard there are like lots of audio stores ther
Glazing pure
What
Truthear pure
i did
but after spending 964268146138618$ on audio equipments, i wont be buying new ones soon
I wanna get my hands on TWS but I'm pretty sure at some where some point I'm definitely going to lose it
just lost my KZ ZSN PRO Xs (rip), anyone have a recommendation for similarly priced IEMs?
@lofty ravine
wait why tf is zsn pro x goes up to rm 100
i bought that one for about rm 50 back then
My suggestion is to go with the same model or the good old boi Moondrop Chu 2
(well if you can upgrade your budget)
I liked 7hz zero 2 than other budget sets
but others arent bad either like chu 2 or waner
i am visiting shanghia next week i can visit jaben or soundluck there and if there is demo unit i might try it
😭😭
I'm unsure whether I should get moondrop puddings or I should get ceramics ultras
Since they're almost the same price in taobao/pinduoduo
I just need good sounds and decent anc/transparency
no ldac though
Ceramic ultra are generally said the be better
But appearantly pudding is like top contender for it
I've went through coolapk for both earbuds
But appearantly pudding is like top contender for it
So no real diffrence
And steal price
And for some reason, they're actually bashing the ceramic ultras
anc and transparency mode was garbage (not too sure but that's what they were talking about)
Yup
And something about simbilance?
The anc on it is apparently crazy good now
is what I've seen or heard people say*
I think I'm gonna go to the puddings route
Main reason for transparency is like hear car horn or smth so you dont die lmao
True
Not exactly that but maybe for convo etc
Just short conversation
or when ur parents are yelling at you to do something
Regardless anc should be either on outside and off indoor if quit so yeah
💀
one of the reason why I want transparency
true
Fit is always important
Ngl I kinda like how moondrop is moving away from the stem design
If it fits good its good
The st design keeps stabbing my ears
so I can't even use it for long periods of time
without my ears hurting
Most ancs kinda relies on passive seal on higher frequencies i believe
yep
Do you have any recommendations on eartips?
I used to have moondrop spring tips but they didn't... Exactly worked good on my st LMAO
I bought my brother cmf buds 2 plus
. It has stem design
how is it
Lowkey fine buds but too much bass
oof
that's pretty nice
Can be comfy or uncomfy
Hmm
For buds?
yep
Or just iem in general
Or those type of buds
but tbf, I don't even know if the buds fit into my ear properly or not yet
Its kinda expensive though for myself i use some cheap one it was like 6 usd
All buds use some diffrent type of
Stem to fit
So normal tips dont really fit onto buds like
Samsung buds2
I have 1 silicone tip
Other one is
Azla sedna
Azla sedna is like
15 20 usd so
Not sure if it worth though
Get any compatible silicone big tips for buds are fine ig
For iems
Tangzu sancai
I love it
sony 1000x the collexion
