@@MariaAudioChick I don't have the E20, I've always wanted one, but I just haven't had the time to grab/borrow one. I didn't watch TDMs review, I try not to watch other reviews before I do mine because I don't want my opinions colored. I don't have the E20, but I've heard several people compare it to the Deuce.

I already put on my basket the hexa, the EPZ K5 and 2 cables, the ivipq 526 and the Kbear ST12 In black Also, the piccolo seems like a nice sounding iem but there's literally no possible way to get it on black which is sad. Just for the video itself I can see you liked the C2, as mentioned on the unboxing of the 2025 version I own the og's and got them at 14usd, loved them and have been with me quite a lot now, bought the kefine klean as a sidegrade since it's a similar sound, with a little more base with a more refined treble Great vid as always 👍🏻
@AudioAmigoReviews I heard them and I love both, they have different goods, I love the Beast's bass they're not too overwhelmed and the vocal of Yu Xuanji is beautiful but shame that I can't tell much difference between these two's treble. Plus, the Beast is aestheticly pleasing to look at and the Yun Xuanji is loaded with accessories but I think I'm leaning toward the Beast since I have alot of vocal forward IEMs
@@trietphan2702 Thank you for sharing!!! It helps people who come to the videos and look through the comments for advice. :) My opinions basically line up with yours. The vocals on Yu Xuan Ji are stellar.
I know it is a little late for this video, but the new 7hz G1 deserves a spot in the Bright V category. It ia literally a Zero.2 with a 4db rise past 3k. Now, the crazy part is... Despite being boosted 4db... there's no sibilance... there is voodoo magic in that IEM. All the detail. All the treble, and i can listen to Rose in Spanish Harlem, at near full volume, and never grind my teeth. I have $200/IEMa that can't do that. My only wish ks more sound stage, but for $30.... Its solid. Even the cheap cable is plenty serviceable.
@@AudioAmigoReviews the pouch is cool. I question how practical it is in practice though. For something like the G1 I am sure it's fine. Something a bit more fragile...ehhhh??? Plus I can't help but play with it like an Otamatone, and make wah wah noises with it like the teacher on Charlie Brown.
I love my Cadenza. Got it last year and it's great for listing in bed. The shells and nozzles are small and they don't weigh much, making them very comfortable to wear. What is the iem that dethroned it from the $35 category?
@@spamcan9208 It’s not so much been beaten, as it’s now a lot more crowded. The Kinera Wyvern is very similar, and $5 more gets you the EW200 which is a good upgrade in my opinion. I still think it’s fantastic, just no longer the go-to best option in that range. You have more choice now.
I bought the Kiwi Ears Cadenza early last year, and to my ears, it was fine for listening to music, but in gaming was just bad, imo. After watching your review and seeing that I could order the Kefine Klean for around $34, I thought, why not buy one to see if there’s any difference? Thanks for the detailed review!
@@AudioAmigoReviews Depth perception and imaging, I would say. The width and height of the soundstage are also somewhat small but still serviceable. - I find footsteps quite hard to hear in PUBG, and locating them accurately is also challenging, especially with a lot of gunfire or when in vertical spaces like multi-story buildings. I mostly have to rely on my teammates in this game to locate enemies. - In a game like Counter-Strike 2, I can hear the general direction of an enemy but can’t pinpoint their exact location unless they’re right next to me, separated by a wall. Also, I usually miss some sound cues. I'm not an audiophile, so this is my opinion after a year and a half of using it ^^. Maybe it's just me asking way too much for this price range. Other than that, the Cadenza is absolutely fine for listening to music. Also, I was supposed to comment this on your Kefine Klean review .😥
@ I don’t know if the Klean will be an improvement since I don’t game. If you use the black nozzles on the Klean, there might be a slight improvement due to the extra treble, but I personally didn’t see a massive improvement in soundstage over the Cadenza in terms of music.
Another great recommendation video! Would it be worth picking up the EW200 on sale if I already have EW100P? I listen to allot of electronic music such as Synth Wave/ Chill Wave. Would the Hades work well for that and occasionally rap music? Thank you for any help.
@@UFO-Audio I’d say skip the 200 and go for the 300 or 500. I personally think the hades works well with lots of EDM, but prefers some types to others. For synth/chill wave you might have a better time with the clear.
Would love to find Z300 for $19!! Still waiting for Clear to get back down to under $25 like it was a few months ago. Hard pass on Hades. Your description is classic, winning!
There really isn’t anything as female vocal focused as the Wan’Er in this price range. The Zero:2 is probably the closest, but it’s a bit different. The Wan’er’s tuning is kinda special.
@@AudioAmigoReviews Ah I see, thank you for the feedback. I got the tangzu wan'er based on your recommendation, since I mainly listen to kpop and jpop, and I am loving it so far!
@ the IgniteX Beast will give flutes, violins, piccolo and other brighter instruments a bit more pop and focus compared to the Cadenza. It won’t be by a lot, but there will be a difference.
@@CervezasObsonMex I don’t have a set yet. Looking to get one at some point. The accessories are amazing. 3 sets of premium tips and the mini q-lock cable is awesome. The case is great too.
@@stale_. I’ve only tried it once at a friend’s house. It’s good, but I don’t think it’s worth MSRP, especially with the standard cable. If it’s $80 or under sure. But I personally wouldn’t pay more than $110 for it.
