A little tip from a road crew… heat those ear hooks up with a hair dryer( don’t use a heat gun) and you can form them to your liking, hold there till they cool off and you’ve got it!
I like how your review feel independent from the hype. Cohesive well put together. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, I appreciate that! 🎧
I’ve got Crin’s Midnight’s..they are extremely chill and competent.
Nice to see the sub $100 market getting some sophistication .
Great review 👍
Seems this is my type of IEM. Thanks for the review
Thanks for watching!
Love the Hexa and also the aria and t3+. Just different flavors. Depending on context I prefer using one over the other. Although i feel it won't suit a lot os people's taste, it has the main merit of offering a good an unusual experience/ sound signature. I really love using it with more complex and speedy genres like progressive rock/ metal and take advantage of it's excellent instrument separation. Everything is decluttered and you can really listen to what every instrument is playing whithout effort. Even sounds in the background you can easilly discern. This is something i can't get with most of iems around the same price range.
That's the 3 BA drivers doing their job ^^
Do you need a portable dac for them?
That settles it. I listen to a lot of prog metal/rock so I guess I'll go with the hexa!
@@PhoenixDecim be aware it doesn't have that Weight/ Kick down low. It's more on The cleaner SIDE. I Guess there's always a tradeoff One has to BE willing to make
@@JoseFerreira-zb7wh thanks for the heads-up! I dont mind the lesser tone weight and bass slam. I'm willing to make that sacrifice for better layer separation and imaging. I was thinking of getting these for more analytical purposes.
The cover title is a "a few good men" reference. Man of culture
You got it!
Agree 100% with your review. Hexa is following the new trend of leaner bass to enhance definition. For me, I had too put narrow bore tips to enhance the mid bass. Still I like more my Tinhifi T3 plus but both complement each other. For me, Hexa is good for long listening session, modern and not hip-hop music.
Right on!
hey how would you rate the t3 plus againsts this hexa and aria, I used to own arias but theyve gone bad and i need a replacement. I loved the nice rumble of the aria but the trebble was fatiguing
so the aria is better suited for gaming?
Reminds me of the symphonium iems in terms of design. A bit.
Any latest basshead iem suggestion
There has been very few IEMs for bassheads recently. I guess the Whizzer HE01B would be the closest I've heard for a while.
Hexa or s12?
Hi, i got a pretty old phone (samsung galaxy s8), do you think my phone will be abble to drive those decently ? I mean i know it will not be ideal but still wondering if maybe my phone will drive those decently without too much drawback ?
Yes, your phone will drive these just fine.

The intro 😂
Early out the gate today!

I have both the Hexa and T3 Plus and I hear the differences exactly the same as you. Both are easy and enjoyable to listen to, but the T3 Plus is simply less “boring”…
Thanks for letting me know. 🎧
I want to use IEMs for Video-Editing.
"DUNU Titan S" or "Truthear Hexa" for Video-Editing projects? Or do you recommend "TIN HiFi T3 Plus" or even other IEMs for Video-Editing projects?
I'd rec the Hexa - quality neutral sound and great comfort for long sessions.
It pairs really well with any ESS dongle DACs
Is it? Then it might sound great with my Qudelix 5K.
sorry for this super late comment, but i enjoy games and music both equally would you say these(the truthear hexas) be better for that or the truthear crinacle zero reds, i enjoy being able to have depth perception and be able to easily place enemies in games but also enjoy my music just as much, i use apple earbuds currently so i guess anythings a upgrade lol
Easily better for both games and music than the Zero Red. It's (the red) is massively overhyped.
@@PrimeAudioReviews I really appreciate the reply I didnt wanna get anything too expensive as these will be my first iem.
@@vool9031How are your reviews after 4 months? I am thinking to buy these instead of going for the red/blues and is there any other iem at similar price which u think would be better (I also equally like music and gaming😊)
How does it compare with the shuoer s12 pro? Was planning to buy the s12 pro but was thinking to get these and save some $$.
Bro, S12 Pro dumps all over these in resolution, end to end extension and tone.
S12 is very sibilant with its treble spikes, if you are sensitive to treble, stay away.
@@Glenn056 I'm very treble sensitive. I was thinking of getting the s12 until a few reviews mentioned treble. What would an alternative be similar in price?
@@spamcan9208 i dont have any issues with treble. I dont think it dumps on these either they just work differently. These use 1 dynamic driver and 3 balanced armatures. So youre gonna hear sound from those things in a different way than planar. Planar is fast reacting and clear and snappy. Hexa is smoother, clear but the parts arent as snappy which isnt a bad thing it just means its a different type of sound its hard to describe but i have both and like both equally. I do like my s12 better though because i like fast responsive quality and clarity but i still love the hexa.
@@spamcan9208 you can turn down treble with any set using eq
How is the hexa compared to Olina Se and which has more technical abilities?
Hexa is darker and more resolving.. Olina se wider soundstage.
@@PrimeAudioReviews it gets more confusing for me which to buy
I have cca c10pro so is it worth upgrading to truthear hexa ?
Depends what sound signature you're looking for. These have nicer shells IMO.
Be late and have great opinion than being rush it's way better m8 thanks for your service, o7
Much appreciated!
Bars🎤
So, olina se or hexa? Im looking for better technicality
Olina SE
In terms of separation Hexa its got more instrument separation than Olina SE and vocal cause it was a hybrid iem, but little bit lack of dynamics. but Olina SE is absolutely great too even if just single DD, have a great layering, instrument separation and also the Olina have a more way better dynamics. Olina SE was a champ in terms of soundstage capabilities at this price point, its got a depth, height, width. Its just have the distance more like 3d against the Hexa, Hexa is more like a compressed sounstage imo.
How long is the cord on the Hexa?
Standard. Should be around 1.2m
I'm stuck between the aria or hexa. I listen to a lot of music and media content for a couple hours while working with my fiio k5 pro dac amp. I also play games as well. I would like more details with vocals and instruments but also want the wide sound stage with the arias. What would you guys decide? Current headphone is the 58x and 6xx.
Aria
@@PrimeAudioReviews thank you. Great video man , keep it up. I just ordered the SE( looks cool). Ik it have a slight difference
Thst is a destructive verdict, as the Aria gets surpassed by almost anything, sounding thin and weak and tinny, no matter what one does with it.
You mean like proper eartips and seal? Yeah, you're probably right : after all, I've only reviewed over 300 iems.
@@bfkc111 I got them and he's right about the bass hitting you. I think I'm going to eq the low frequency a bit down because it's a little too much and over shadows the rest of what's going on when I'm playing games. But so far they don't seem weak or thin. Could need a little more clarity in the mids but for $80,It's not that bad.
The cheese on the box is downright aggressive.
Downright gorgeous. I love waifus
Not sure if it’s cause you’re Aussie or I’m just dumb and haven’t caught on but you sound very similar to DankPods…
You’re just missing the energy lmao
isnt hexa the best iem under 100dollars/euro ?
Depends what you like or who you ask. I would put it in the top 10 currently.
How is it for gaming ??
Good for gaming - comfortable, not harsh and good positioning.
@@PrimeAudioReviews thanks
This or simgot ea500 lm?
EA500 LM is more rounded and balanced.
Bass definition & note weight are the main problem here, aside from that little EQ will fix most of the problems (peaky upper midrange & lack of mid bass/warmer midrange)
kato or hexa?
Kato for my tastes. Hexa if you want soft treble.
Def Kato
Can you also make a review with the Sennheiser IE 100 Pro? They also have their Sennheiser IE 100 Pro as a wireless option.
Those IEMs are supposed to be pretty good for 100,- €. Wireless version is 150,- €
I don't have access to any Sennheiser products
@@PrimeAudioReviews - Okay! Thanks for your quick reply :D
Truthear HEXA or Truthear ZERO?
I haven't tried Zero.
Animé female Child time
Why fap- I mean wifu time
Yeah, I bought the Hexa and was disappointed as hell. They sound good, but the bass sucks and music without bass is not music imho. My blessing 2 rule
