I have Pula PA02 and most that have heard both say they are close if not the same. I love that set, it was a shock how good it was the first time I heard it. Awesome review as always Dave
@TheHonestAudiophile just order it! Your review convinced me. Hopefully it will sound as good as yours. Paul Wasabi’s unit doesn't sound as good as you describing.
Another great content and review Dave, for under 200.00 is a good value and could be an underrated iem/a hidden gem, and have a blessed, wonderful, positive, productive, peaceful and safe week
I have been really enjoying the CKLVX CK-D41 ever since I received it a week and a half ago. Female vocals are particularly nice since "s" and "sh" sounds are tamed by the frequency response dip at around 6 kHz.
Which should i buy? I own the ea500LM , gizaudio galelio. All of these iem are around the same price. Gizaudio chopin , cklvx D41 , sliivo SL 41 , aful p5. Which is an upgrade? Also i listen to lots of instruments , piano , female voclas , orchestra
Chopin tone, timbre and note weight aren't as natural. Slivo SL41 haven't heard. P5 isn't as detailed and resolving and has a touch of ba timbre. Personally, I prefer the D41.
Interesting...my main set is Tea 2's and I've thought about grabbing a set of these...so I'm guessing you're saying the tuning is about the same with the Tea 2's being slightly more refined?
Thanks Dave for the great review. You answered in the comments comparing to the Mangird T2 and the Hype 4. You love the Hype 4 and this Cklvx d41 . So I guess I can just get the d41 instead of the Hype 4 and save money . What do you think ? Thanks again Most Honest One !
Thanks Dave for the review❗️🙋♂️Good times for IEMs… another reviewer Hobby Talk added just for fun 75 Ohm impedance adapter and was laughing it is SO MUCH FUN💯✌️😁

D41 has a little more bass impact, isn't as balanced in the upper, similar stage width and depth. Hype 4 is better detailed and resolving, slightly better tone and timber, better layering, slightly more controlled in the bass and uppers. Both are excellent with the differences being mostly in the technical abilities.
Damn, over the last few months I bought the Hidizs MP-145, the ARTTI T10, and the CCA Rhapsody. If I buy this D41...I may have to go to confession. No regrets on buying the Muse HiFi M4 BT DAC/AMP...this little unit really does a terrific job.
Hype 4 has a bit more bass impact and texture, a bit more details and resolution, a little more natural tone and timbre and more treble extension that adds in more air and space. The two are similar sounding but the Hype 4 edges it out overall in performance
Top has more mid bass presence, little elevated mids and treble, little better detail retrieval and resolution, not as full sounding. Top is more fun leaning and the CKLVX is more balanced all-around presentation.
At first I thought it was Roman numerals, then realized there is no K in it. Definitely they do need to do something about their model naming. This IEM really looks beautiful.
Thanks for another great review! I am happy to see Myer Audio getting some more attention and getting their name thrown around more. This is a fantastic set for the price imo. Glad to see you enjoy these as much as I do!
Hello, I'm an owner of Thieaudio Elixir, if I wanted a smidge bit more treble from my Elixir, will D41 be a good pick? (hopefully without any sacrifice on the technical side)
I think I found an eartip for the CKLVX that makes it indistinguishable from the Hype 4 (at least in terms of pure sonics). Azla SednaEarFit Vivid Edition eartips, they bring out more flavor from the midbass, redirect the mids to sound more balanced between male and female vocals whilst still complimenting the tonality of lead instruments, and they "wake up" the treble so that it comes across as being more enthusiastic/less dull. I almost can't tell the two iems apart now, but I'm pretty sure the Hype 4 still has the better technicalities.
Great review Dave, I have the D41’s identical twin, the Pula PA02. Your sound description of the D41 matches what I get with the PA02 exactly. Kudos..!
Studio 4 is a slight improvement over the CKLVX in regards to technical abilities as it is a touch deeper, more layered and more accurate in placement.
F1 Pro review coming at some point. As for planar vs dd. They both have their pros and cons. Planar more about the technical abilities and dd about the natural tone and timbre. But those differences don't always apply and aren't necessarily better or worse than each.
Awesome review as always. I just got these today and everything you said is spot on how i feel about them too. I cant really make up my mind tho on which tips i prefer yet

Great video and why you are awesome! It's not always about the $$$$ IEMs! So how do these compare to Blessings 3 or any IEMs at that or higher level. What changes in the sound?
Thanks for the kind words. I've not heard the Blessing 3 since I reviewed it. I don't recall much about the Blessing 3 but if memory serves me correctly the details, resolution, tone and timbre are better. As for changes on price point, they can be subtle to drastic, depending on the tuning and implementation and qual8ty of components. Most difference noticed will be in details retrieved, how they're resolved, tone, timbre and staging abilities.
I've not heard the Blessing 3 since I review it. But if memory serves me correctly, the Hype 4 is a bit more fun leading and the Blessing 3 is more neutral, analytical leaning. I don't remember enough about the technical abilities to do a fair comparison.
Quintet bass is similar but not as refined, more elevated and forward in the mids, has less treble energy and extension, little less detail and resolution, not as natural tone and timbre.
As usual, nice review! It's always fun to see your genuine excitement over a piece of gear. How do you think this compares to the Aful Performer 5? Is it an upgrade or side grade?
@TheHonestAudiophile if I want better than P5 (which I really enjoy), do you think I should take the leap to something like Hype 4 or Studio4, or is the CKLVX is close enough for the money?
Studio 4 and Hype 4 are significant steps up from P5 but minor from CKLVX. Depends on how much you want to spend. Also depends on the presentation you seek, Studio 4 is the most neutral.
Excellent Review Dave! I've just got this set, and I really like the way it sounds. But, I have a following question, You did a review on Xenns mangird tea 2, and could you tell me, please, how is d41 compared to tea 2? Overall, I mean. Cuz, I have a chance to buy tea 2 for 140$ only. Will it be a step forward, or it'll be just a waste of money?
I've not heard the P5 in a long time as I sold it about 6 months ago. But if memory serves me correctly the D41 is more accurate with tone and timbre, slightly better detailed and resolving and has a little more clarity.
Kato doesn't have the sub bass presence, mids are similar, treble is not as elevated, details and resolution are a little less, noteweight isn't as full, tone and timbre is slightly less. S12 has more aggressive presentation in mids and treble, slightly more details and resolution, tone and timbre is not as natural.
@@TheHonestAudiophile i only heard s12 on youtube recording , but the clarity of sound seems to be superior to many, don't know if it's my cheap headphones or the recording, but cklvx would be a decent stepup from dunu titan s and s12? Mainly listening games/movie soundtracks with orchestra and vocals, podcasts
do you recommend these for gaming / music ? how does it compare to something like HD6XX ? i know its hard to compare but i kinda dont want buy a headset again since it's hot where i live and i dont want to loose too much in music quality. im new to iem's and wanted soemthing at 150 dollars. so do you recommend i get this one or the pula ( is the sound quality comparable to good headsets ) or just stick with headsets like hd6xx ?
You are mu most watch reviewer for iem.. I am about to decide either on d41 oh10 or timeless.. what do tou think.. i like my iem fun sounding with good clarity
I've not heard the P5 in over a year. I wasn't able to do a side-by-side comparison. But from what I remember about the P5 it doesn't have as natural tone and timbre, not as resolving.
Different presentations. The D41 has a fuller, more impactful, more detailed, more resolving, more spacious and extended sound. The ER2XR is more intimate and mid centered, the D41 is extended and balanced, very cohesive.
@@TheHonestAudiophile Hello friend, I really enjoy your content, I have learned a lot, but I have a question: I have several dac amps that have a 4.4 output balanced with 3.5 and another 2.5 balanced with 3.5. The fact is that I want to buy a good MYER AUDIO NCKLVX D41 iem and I can order it 4.4 or 3.5, will there be an auditory difference? I have thought about buying it 4.4 and a nicehck adapter from 2.5 to 4.4. The 3.5 is more versatile but I fear it will lose quality. Thanks in advance for your response. Greetings and blessings.
Personally I'd get 4.4mm and then use an adapter if you need to go to 3.5mm. Balanced will add in some subtle differences in presentation but mostly the gain and power will be noticable.
Chopin isn't as full sounding, isn't as natural with tone and timbre, similar details and resolution but maybe slight edge to D41, stage is more refined and focused on D41.
From what I understand, the treble and mids are slightly different between the two. I haven't heard the Pula PA02 though so I can't confirm. Glad you enjoy the PA02.
I respect your reviews of past but thus one was highly disappointed and here's why , You praise these iems and rightfully so , but then you go and compare them to 2 cheap iems that no one talks about , so if you going to give high marks for a iem then us consumers are waiting for price match and more so we'll known above price iem , because to really like something there should have been a challenge for it and you gave none . That being said I guess I have to search other reviews.
There are plenty of comparisons made in the comments. If you have a specific IEM in mind for comparison, please ask. I make comparison based on price and performance and similar technology.
@@TheHonestAudiophile we know there are products that smokes it's price class and rivals more expensive ones , and that will always catch attention from buyers
Are you talking about the CTM Clear Tune Monitor Da Vinci X or the HifiGo DUNU X GizAudio Da Vinci? I've not heard the DUNU. The CTM is a neutral tuned stage monitor.
Great review, Dave. Red shirt for the red stems...................right? My fav is still Moondrop Kato. Do manufacturer's sit in a bar at night and come up with the worst possible names for their IEM's? I was really impressed, you only got tongue-tied once. HAPPY EASTER. 🥰

You praise these iems and rightfully so , but then you go and compare them to 2 cheap iems that no one talks about , so if you going to give high marks for a iem then us consumers are waiting for price match and more so we'll known above price iem , because to really like something there should have been a challenge for it and you gave none . That being said I guess I have to search other reviews.
There are plenty of comparisons made in the comments. If you have a specific IEM in mind for comparison, please ask. I make comparison based on price and performance and similar technology.
@@TheHonestAudiophile we know there are products that smokes it's price class and rivals more expensive ones , and that will always catch attention from buyers

Thanks for commenting.
@@TheHonestAudiophile ok
I bet these are much better than a higher price davinci overall in sound . I think Dave not willing to step on toes and embarrass higher price iem 😂
The CTM Da Vinci X is a significant upgrade.
I'm not afraid to step on toes. I've done plenty of it as a reviewer.
@TheHonestAudiophile the davinci iem is not good and the bass is overwhelming
Are you talking about the CTM Clear Tune Monitor Da Vinci X or the HifiGo DUNU X GizAudio Da Vinci? I've not heard the DUNU.
The CTM is a neutral tuned stage monitor.
@@TheHonestAudiophile duno davinci
As mentioned, I've not heard it so I can't offer an opinion. Thanks for commenting.
Great review, Dave. Red shirt for the red stems...................right? My fav is still Moondrop Kato. Do manufacturer's sit in a bar at night and come up with the worst possible names for their IEM's? I was really impressed, you only got tongue-tied once. HAPPY EASTER. 🥰
