Smooth shells but heavy metal presses on long wear

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

  • Textured, well-separated bass with Harman-style warmth
  • Detailed treble and good imaging
  • Three nozzle choices to change the tuning
  • Punchy, textured sub-bass for its class
  • Airy, well-extended treble; clean mids
  • Comfortable for an all-metal IEM; good case and cable
  • Excellent build, smooth comfortable shell

Cons

  • Male vocals sit a little back
  • Steel nozzles too bright
  • Heavy shells press after long wear; vents cut isolation
  • Upper treble can sound metallic and sibilant
  • Average imaging and stage
  • Weak isolation; fingerprint-prone finish
  • Coarse, peaky treble on cymbals
  • HeadphonestyFeb 2024

    An easy recommendation for almost anyone except bass lovers; the brass nozzles give the best tuning.

  • HeadfonicsMay 2024

    A strong first upgrade for listeners who want sub-bass punch and airy treble, though some tracks turn sibilant.

  • A let-down for this reviewer: fine on simple music, but grainy treble and recessed mids tire; he prefers Truthear Hexa.

  • HeadphoneerMay 2024

    Warm, lush and detailed; a worthy junior to Simgot's flagships, with bass that isn't the tightest.
