Amazing how you can remember all the characteristics of so many iems,I only have 3 but I think that I have found the one that check all the boxes for me in regards to sound profile….I’m done I think…I just love the Kefine Delci….
Love your video. Great info and very helpful. If I can make one small suggestion---- if you can print out the name of the iem on the screen, we can remember which iem you are talking about when you say the name of the iem quite quickly. For those of us who are not familiar with many of these iems, i would be helpful to see the names and the spelling!
I just broke my qkz x hbb yesterday, and I want to buy a new iem. Between Conch and EW200 which do you prefer? Or maybe you know something better under $100? Mainly for music like Nirvana etc.
any good recommendation for IEM with soundstage and detail? I have the EW200 the only thing that can be akward is how bright it can sound sometimes (Star Rail character skills destroys my enemies and my ears XD). Otherwise in the songs I hear are fine (rock, christian rock, powermetal, vocal focused like the hoyoverse songs) I really like the soundstage and detail of it and would like an IEM that can offer similar quality of them. I heard good things about the EPZ Q1 Pro (bass focused with soundstage and details) and TRN TA1 Max (details, soundstage, bass and decent amount of treble)
Waner is roughly in the same spot as the Wyvern, along with a whole lot of good budget IEMs, like KZ Castor Silver, KZ Castor Black, Kiwi Ears Forteza, KZ EDX Pro, TRN MT4 Pro, Tanchjim One, CCA CRA, Truthear Hola, Moondrop Chu II edit: you could argue Forteza being so much pricier doesn't deserve to be mentioned, and yes, price wise that's true :D
Hey Man, loved your collection. Can you please suggest an IEM on a budget, I generally listen to more bassy EDM, Pop, and Dubstep sounds, and also play a lot of games. It would be much appreciated. Also, I'm subbing.
Looking to get a new pair to replace my Wyvern, but I have a hard time picking between the Sonus and the Lan. People have recommended me the Sonus just for how neutral it is, but I'm planning to get the Lan because it has a recessed 2-pin connector (context: I've had an incident where my cable's pins got bent, fortunately I bent it back to shape and it still works perfectly fine but now the socket of my Wyvern's right unit is now loose beyond repair, so I'm leaning towards getting the Lan for its build plus its recessed connector should be able to make the cable more rigid) I wonder what I'll miss out on in terms of sound if I go for the Lan voer the Sonus.
Hey should I get Moondrop Lan? I ve bought EW200. Is there any differences? I must say ew200 midrange very thin. I am not basshead but the midrange on ew200 make me kinda disappointed.
help me sir, I want an upgrade for my Tangzu Shimin li got bored with it's sound and I listened to busy tracks like kpop but I want also a versatile one my options are TRN conch, Zero 2, Celest wyvern abyss , simgot ew200
@@Jaawaudio thank you sir Tanchjim ola is the one I decided to buy because it's a new niche in my ears to listen with 😅 but thank you sir and I love how you review iem's
Can you help, headphones up to $50, main genre preferences are post-punk, post-rock, metalcore, shoegaze, various synth music. I prefer clean sound, I don’t really like bass and this boominess in sound. Listen from my phone and my kbear ks1 headphones, of course I use equalization, only from another kbear model, and in general it’s not bad, can I get something similar, with more resolution? Thank you!
@@Jaawaudio Mmm, are there any of those proposed here, or what else? The same simgot ew200 will not suit me? I read a lot of reviews that they are very detailed with a wide stage and clear sound, what do you think? There is no way to listen, of course, and the source is just a phone with usb-type c dac
@@alexandereow I don't rec the EW200 as easy, because it's on the spicy side, too bright for many. 7Hz Sonus is the safer rec, in most ways equally capable.
Hi man, I really appreciate your videos. I mostly listen to rock, metal would I gain anything significant if I go for the Simgot ea500lm or Truthear Hexa over the 7hz sonus ? If possible I also want to use the iem for some competitive gaming (apex, valorant etc..) but I am going to be primarily be using it for listening to music. I'm really confused on what to buy although I'm leaning slightly towards the 7hz Sonus right now as it's the same price as the ew200 in my region.
CCA Rhapsody is the best of these, for bass, and that's also why for metal. The tuning switches allow to adjust the sound for different genres nicely, but it is a very bassy IEM 👍
@@Jaawaudio Awesome, i have the zero 2s, il pick up the rhapsody and see how i like them compared, i know they are big and i had trouble with comfortability with my Tin Hifi T3 plus', no issues with the zero 2 and i actually prefer the sound more on the zero 2s. im hoping i dont have that issue with the rhapsody, fingers crossed!
Bruda, kindly recommend an IEM under 100 dollars which suits genres like lofi, hip hop, rap, indie pop, electronic pop, chill wave, indie rock, trip pop....
I want to upgrade from the ZS10PROX witout spending too much, (got them for 15 dlls or 300 mexican pesos) what can you suggest or recommend friend... I saw this for example: polaris,(you said that is no upgrade kz zs10pro x vs polaris, but i wanted to still including it in this tiny list; trio, rhapsody ? Ziigaat Nuo, TANCHJIM TANYA, BQEYZ KC2? TINHIFI T2, Simgot Ew200, BLON BL03, Zero 2? Cronch? Kiwiears Cadenza? Moondrop Quarks? Moondrop CCA CRA ? CCA12 ? CCANRA ? CCA CSN ? Kz AS16 Pro? HIDIZS MS1 Galaxy, Moondrop chu ii, Blon 05, Blon JOJO, Blon z300, HBB KHAN? KZ PR2?Moondrop (SSP)Super Spacestation Pulse? or any other you think is way too good and NOT expensieve, budget price, cheap.
Heya, I highly recommend starting with the cheapest recs, like the ZiiGaat Nuo, or the 7Hz Zero2. Play around with that cheap set, get used to it, and see how you feel about the hobby and IEMs then 🫡
You could say this is relatively close to them, as far as my collection goes. Not inaccurate at all to think Sonus is #13. But also I'm talking preference, I do have a tierlist with two scoring systems, my preference, and then an overall score. The tierlist is in constant flux, so it won't reflect the current situation 1to1
When I bought ew200. I think when hearing Violin or cello would be great but actually its not. Female vocal are good but some song make female kinda unnatural. Its a dynamic driver. Should I burn it more. I just bought it for 1 week
Sigmot ew200 Or Trn cronch Which is better between them for gaming and selecting sounds to the right, left, up or down, and ambient sounds in general for FPS games, watching videos and podcasts, and a little music? I don’t care about the bass very much. I care about sound quality, sound purity, and sound details. And Is there a better option for the uses I mentioned in the same price category? And Is the ND x12 good for the uses you mentioned ? Or not
@@EGPIKA3 Very good, I rate my IEMs on gaming (many FPS PVP games) on my tierlist docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GuSB6BqrQTqulefRggVZiaAQWSW-MEbTiPdgEOAFkDs/edit?usp=sharing
I understand why the KZ brand is ignored by reviewers because of their sketchy past and ridiculous marketing style,but , probably like you, I dwell in the budget realm of IEMs and more often than not, I reach for a KZ over all the other options I have. I've recently bought the KZ D-FI non tunable version, and the KZ EDC PRO. Both are outstanding budget offerings! And just fun to listen to, and that's what I'm after,of course 😊
Amazing collection man. The cables matching is dope.
Appreciate the kind words 😎
Nice collection!
Sonus is grear for vocal and I also enjoy the drums coming out of it! Just super clean.
Amazing how you can remember all the characteristics of so many iems,I only have 3 but I think that I have found the one that check all the boxes for me in regards to sound profile….I’m done I think…I just love the Kefine Delci….
Definitely on the short list for me too, have heard so many good things about Delci!
Great video. Great collection. I came partly to see the cables...LOL. Can you start linking to some of them please?
Thanks! Sure, I can put a couple links in the description 👍
hah, I'm glad I'm not the only who uses a watch case for storing IEMs
They are so great for storage and displaying! Hell yea. Also I figured that for travel, compact camera cases are similarly a super nifty solution!
Moondrop LAN is actually goated. The tuning sounds mature, well at least to me.
True, at times it moves up the list, it's generally a staple budget IEM that should still be in the discussion 👍
Love your video. Great info and very helpful. If I can make one small suggestion---- if you can print out the name of the iem on the screen, we can remember which iem you are talking about when you say the name of the iem quite quickly.

Thanks, yeah I can put in timestamps that have the name on them. Usually I do info on screen, but these top12 vids have been quick hasty ones :D
I love that EA1000 cable, it matches really well!
It's among my fav stock cables yeah, kinda makes me wish for a 8W version 🤔😎

Thank you! It is better 😉
Have you ever tried tin hifi c2? i got it around $16
Ah the Mech Warrior, I'll see if I can pick it up for cheap on some future sale, thanks for the tip!

Awesome video!

How would you rank the Tangzu Wan'er in this list?

Check out the new kz edc pro, very cheap build but the sound and drivers you get out of it for 4.48usd is wild...
Thanks, I will, I might even have it somewhere, I've ordered so many budget IEMs it's scary :D

Hello there, thanks for watching! On a budget I think 7Hz Zero2 would be great for your music, it has nice bass and overall great musical tuning 👍
@@Jaawaudio I already own the Zero 2, need to try something new

Sonus to my ears sounds slightly more dynamic, slightly more presence in mids. Also a comfier set, to me Sonus is a small direct upgrade from Lan.
