Secure fit for most; heavy shells, wide nozzle

Each part is rated on one scale for every earbud and headphone, from lab test measurements where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Near-target tuning, very high lab sound score
  • Swappable 3.5/4.4 mm plugs, detachable cable, case
  • Easy to drive
  • Comfortable longer than expected with the right tip
  • Tank-like steel shell, fingerprint-proof finish
  • Warm, coherent mids with good lower-mid weight
  • Lively dynamics

Cons

  • Upper mids a few dB hot
  • Modest stage and imaging
  • Heavy shells and wide nozzle can bother small ears
  • Upper mids can turn shouty
  • Average detail and vague imaging
  • Heavy shells may cause hot spots
  • Stock tips dull the treble
  • SoundGuysOct 2024

    Sounds great, close to their preferred tuning, and works with balanced players; a bit pricey and heavy for some ears.

  • HeadphonestyDec 2023

    Warm-neutral, enjoyable and very well built; a good first serious IEM, though detail is only average.

  • HeadfonicsJan 2024

    An easy first-IEM pick that is hard to dislike: balanced, better-built and better-cabled than earlier Arias.
