Got it as a cheap backup during 11.11 sale since my daily driver dac is in repair, and as a portability option.

What can I say. Maybe this headline summarises.

Despite many reviews saying good things about it.

Here’s my thoughts. I am commenting on audio quality only.

1. Everything is so smoothed out and slow, everything just sounds generic.

2. Some weird reverb and slow transients.

3. Recessed mids

4. Recessed upper highs, except for some upper mid instruments like piano which intensifies suddenly.

5. HUGE bass. But sony type background muddy sound pressure. Not detailed or textured. Beats have less slam.

6. Tonality is ok

7. Soundstage is flat in your head inside your eyes.

8. Weird left right out of sync sometimes, causing moving centre stage.

9. Need super high volume to get to acceptable quality listening levels. Mine at around 90%

10. the tips are so shallow that I had to insert it until the plastic body hurts my ear (I have changed it to the spinfit cp100+). Still sounds wonky after swapping tips. Normal tips are too loose on the oval shafts.

11. Tunings:

Default - Best of the bunch but still smoothed out

Basshead - TOO MUCH muddy bass! Sony bass boost from the 90s

Monitor - good for midrange vocals at higher volumes but anemic bass.

If you’re an audiophille, look elsewhere.

If you’re into it as your on the move backup for youtube and music when your main is in repair, it should be fine. (I broke my littlewhite 2pin when pulling them out with the cable)

My first and last foray into TWS perhaps.
