I can't believe I just replaced my old UM MEST MK2 with a Thieaudio Hype 4 and I get the same enjoyment minus the extra sibilance These new Sonnion drivers sound good i will build my own IEM soon with mix of knowles and sonnion ba
Hello! Great video as usual with mouthwatering deals, need your advise on my next IEM. So I had the Hifiman HE400SE and Fosi Audio SK01 as a combo, and loved using it for the long hours in office where I could book a room and work all day long (Open planar magnetics, so need silence to enjoy listening). They were also great for gaming. But as people have started returning to office, it has become harder and harder to book a room to myself. Had to sell off the the combo with a heavy heart. I am now looking for an IEM as they are great for isolation and hardly leak as much as open back planar mags. I am confused between the Pula PA02/CKLVX, Simgot SM4 or the Aful Performer 5 or Binary Chopin. Pula is coming the cheapest for me, almost similar to CKLVX, then SM4, then Chopin and P5 being the costliest (not huge difference). Have heard rave reviews about the new SM4. Are they arguably the best of the bunch? I listen mostly to soundtracks like Dune, Dark Knight, Pop songs (Jason De Rulo and other mainstream pop artists) and play games like Valorant and Apex Legends. TIA for the advise!
@@1fareast14good product good price compare with other old school brand Shure Senheiser , 64audio.., they are amazing products and price with no doubt . Good products and good prices always sell well.
What would you pick between these four: the blessing 3 for $383 cad, the DaVinci for $408 cad, the performer 8 for $434 cad or the studio4 for $500 cad? Thanks!
Was able to snag the Performer 5 for $151 on AliExpress. With Dunu Ss tips Have the SuperMix 4 on the way as well. My Dac/amp is the FIIO K5 pro ess and dawn pro I got for $80 and $40. Just starting this hobby. First pair was the Truth ear reds. How does my set up look as a beginner? And what would you suggest my next upgrade be? Add to the IEM collection or upgrade the DAC. Music is mostly Rap/hip hop like but also a little of everything. Also gaming, Apex Legends and Rocket League. Appreciate your videos! Definitely my go-to for knowledge on this
How do you feel about AFUL P5 compared to Supermix 4? I have the latter and was thinking about getting P5, SM4 feel too bright and forward in vocals for me.
It’s a great all arounder. It’s my go-to. Sounds good with everything. Tips are easy to fit. If you can get under $150 I recommend. If not there’s something probably newer better options. Just got the Tea Pros and they sound amazing. Though if I was to buy only one set for general use it would probably be the P5
Pretty neat! I am just getting into the hobby too, i got TRI Starsea and Tinhifi T3+ back when they were popular and kind of forgot about audio for 3-4 years. Now i am getting back into the rabbit hole and frankly, crazy to see how much everything has improved. Aful P5 was on my radar unfortunately i seem to just barely missed all recent discounts. All good tho since 11.11 is on the horizon. In the meanwhile, i ordered Letshuoer S12 Pro + DT03 (their recently released dac) for 165$ on Aliexpress. Could've gotten just the S12 Pros for 105-110$ but i don't have a dac anyway and that one seems clinical/analog which is something i want to try. Onix Alpha and Dawn Pro were on top of my list but i kind of want to start with something clean to see how iems actually sound instead of having coloration.
Given the content of your reviews, I am sure you know that such deals (almost identical) happen 3 to 4 times a year. Is this kind of content (more or less advertisement) part of your deal with Hifigo ?
Thanks for watching! Must be a misunderstanding. Maybe I was just talking too fast😅? But I couldn't find where I said that. Either way, apologies for the poor communication, and again, thanks for taking the time to check out the video!
I listened and heard “super discounted” as the key focus. Not super budget. Later there’s mention of a range including from entry level to more expensive with a focus on discounts on his favourites.

Ah Fu is correct. AFUL is still making quality sets that I love.
Okay, that's good to know! Thank you for watching!
David, thank you for another wonderful video! 👌
Thanks for watching!
Thank you ♥️ ✌️ I wanted to ask, which one it's your most used dongle besides F6❓😊
Are they overstocked, just making room, or in a good mood?
lol, not sure but I know they have sales regularly several times a year and this is one of the better ones! Thanks for watching!
I just think the profit margins are massive, no real skin off their back

I think the studio 4 rated the highest,bass just not enough for some people.

AFUL-AH foo means healthy wealthy in Chinese ❤阿福❤ Great Video , in so much love with this channel , Dave is a great guy with nice manner l meant it .
Thank you so much! And thank you for watching!
His editing skills, the music, the voice.. i just come here for get calm😂
Hi Dave,, thanks, help me, the blessing 3 for 238 it's a good deal? I'm tempted...
Is that new or used? I think I've seen used sets on Head-fi for around $200. Seems like a pretty good deal for a new set. Thanks for watching, btw!
@@Audio-In-Reviews new, with aliexpress coupons and discounts. Thanks for the answer
Gd Elysian acoustic labs is frm my country..yup Malaysia..Another great name of hi end iem makers is Alpha Omega..Peace!
Ah-foo is correct. You got it right.
Oh good! Thanks for watching!

Considering choice deals on aliexpress with coupons are cheaper than the hifigo sales, I'd say yes.
Used market is still nicer :)
Where do you go to find the used market?
bro dont use your intro any more,, is not eficient today, all people im pretty shure skip it, good video btw, nice edit and opinion keep like that
U mentioned "super budget" and started at $100

@@Audio-In-Reviews I have a belly button
The word budget is pretty subjective
The first time I saw that IEM, I thought what an awful brand name. 😬
I still have not bought an Aful set just because of the name
