A 'Magnum Opus' among IEM comparative reviews! Many Thanks for this magnificent comprehensive survey, Tony! Bought Kefine Delci for $40 USD during the recent Spring sale. What a value! High quality and affordable IEMs produced in China are a delight, benefiting audio enthusiasts everywhere! Best Wishes!
Wow Tony, how you pulled this one together so eloquently is a testament to your experience in this crazy hobby. I should have the Delci in a couple of days. This one is a real market disrupter imho. Thank you. An epic review and comparisons.
Great comparison video Akros! I have the 500 LM's and really enoy them. You still make me want to purchase the Delci, hangs pretty well with some heavy hitters! I would love to see you do a video with some "End Game" level IEM's and some lower priced ones and how close they come to the big boys. Kinda of a dimishing returns video. Anyway, thanks as always
One can tell your favorites by fancy cables attached to them. Your ability to remember and talk minute details about the models (even considering the preparation for the recording) is commendable.
Looking for insight from your experienced ears 😎 I'm listening to my EDA balance, forgot how good it is! Just for kicks I pulled up HBB squigs for it and Delci and normalized at 500 and 1000. They look so close I auto eq'd at several different points and listened. There is a slight and I mean very slight bass increase and that is about it. I realize graphs aren't everything and I'm guessing there is a slight additional difference between the sound due to metal vs plastic, but based on review descriptions of the 2, I cant imagine there is a huge difference. Just put a Tanchjim filter on my V80 that I've been eq'ing, and wow, sounds amazing! No need for eq now unless I want to get a darker sound. I've been on the fence about the Delci and PA02, are they really that much better/different from what I already have? Hearing lots of tribrids are coming soon. I don't own any and really looking to add only different configurations and sounds to my collection. Just a few of my other sets... T10, Katacco, Conch (modded), ZS10 proX, EDx ProX/Lite/Ultra, Castor Bass (MOD soon) , SGOR Venus/Adonis, KB Bassfinch (modded/pure silver cable), Wyvern, Tanya, ZVX, Liberty Z2 and Orca. Also a $2 surprisingly clean and quite good AK6 Pro.
Hey Tony! How does it compare to Orca? I'd love to see more Orca comparisons to any price range with similar tunings if you can fit it in to future reviews or make a video. You are the only one to do a review and I use your reviews to place my own IEMs 😁😎👍Thx
Hey Tony, I bought the Delcis and have to say that I really like them so far. I did want to ask how they stack up with the Hexas? Is there a noticeable enough difference between the two to justify having both IEMs? I use my IEMs for male vocals, R&B like, and I don't have any instruments in my audio. I like vocals that are natural, clear, and a little bit crisp. Thank you!
@@walden9612 well the May is 2 drivers, thus the main reason for not comparing with Delci. It's well tuned ,but lacks the bass authority of the Delci. Personally I like them both but if I could choose only one I would opt for Delci as I like the tonality and timbre more.
@@akros9333 both May and Delci are around the same price at the moment, hence my question. speaking of the bass Delci is 3 times more expensive than QKZ x HBB, judging by squig graphs their bass and mids are on par, is there anything in Delci to justify 3x price tag, both sound-wise and in terms of comfort, isolation, build, eartips, etc.? would really appreciate your thoughts on that. perhaps even compare them to KZ EDX Pro which are even cheaper? just trying to understand where diminishing return starts nowadays)
Tony, i've purchased delci recently. I want to buy a portable dac& around $50 price range. My choices are- ifi go link, shanling u1 plus and moondrop dawn pro. What do you suggest? If another one outside these then please also tell.
Just a quick question, i have a Shanling up4 2022 dac, is that enough for drive the Delci and the Artti T10 properly? And if you had too choose personally between those.... Which would you choose and why?
I have the artti-t10 and the up4 22. The artti-t10 is more power hungry than the delci and you need 70% of the up4 22 to power the t10 to deafening levels.
I don t like that 2-khz thing of the Simgots.The best tuning for we is Origin but for the price..Nope especially nowadays that it rains iems every single week.I think Simgot has to try to make an EM6L - type iem with dynamic driver and leave the 2khz area alone..
i actually find it nice they have a house sound with some particular traits, while allowing you the option to tune the iems differently. One of the worst things of the hobby is exactly when every brand launches "the same" iem. Just look at harman tuned iems - the market is completely overloaded with them.
@@anatol1204 that doesn't actually contradict what i was saying. I mean more or less that. Yes they are similar as they share a brand's signature house sound. And because it's a particular one that's not the norm, even though they share similarities between them (which i find good, gives the brand some personality, identity even) they are different from that "norm" that most brands end up following.
@@JoseFerreira-zb7wh Sorry but what means house sound? You have DOZENS of similar " oxygen - ish.. " tuning iems out there that have that similar tunning before Simgot appears in the game
Yea.. LG v60 is a gd source.. but u r usin usbC or audio out?.. Cs43198 is an upgrade to cs43131, with dual rt6863 as op, just ingredients thats suits peoples mostly. These current time i mean.. An upgrade still goin on bra.. Try to find extincted cx31988.. my worlds best dac.. Yup single chips built for Balanced perposed.. Cx31988 not abvious Cx31993 which's not as good.. Delci frm Kafine...thumbs up frm me.. Peace!
That's a hard question, but there are a few that follow that idea. TinHIFi T5s, HISENOR T2, Pula PA02 ( I've seen it as low as 135), Kefine Delci, Shozy P20.....but let me know what you listen to!
@@akros9333 Thank you, i bought the topping nx7 and the KZ Castor Harman to start, i hope it sounds bether than my standalone Sennheiser Cx 3.00. Later i will update to the best dac with the nx7 and the best Earphones for me (one of you choice). Thank you! Jazz, Soul, Trip Hop, Eletronica Music Style.
Wow now there's a name I haven't heard for a long time....one of the best TinHIFi iem. Delci is More detailed than Ouranos, but tonality is similar. Delci is more polished....more.mature.
@@akros9333 I was rocking Ouranos just yesterday.... I did a small retune to make it more fun. I think the CNT drivers share lots of similarities with DLC drivers, for example good quality bass....
@@akros9333 Could you say that the delci is a brighter and more energetic ouranos? I love the ouranous for what it is, but it left me wanting a little bit more "spice" if that makes sense.

This is the mother of reviews ever so rare to find on the internet. Love your work.
An hour vidéo 🤩
Let me sit comfortably and enjoy.
Thanks 👌
Chi-fi completely took over the market with IEMs. Literally no reason to shop Sennheiser, Sony, Shure... at $1000 or below
That stuff is also made in China, anyway.
⭐Professor of sound!🎶
Love your assortments of balanced cables matching the individual iems.

I really appreciate your content Akros. Very thorough!

Fantastic comparison!
would you possibly make a ranking list of every iem you’ve owned or tried with points ?
An epic review ! I ordered the Delci. What an audio adventure ! Thanks Akros !
30:25 Thanks! I recently got the QKZ HBB for cheap, and it's warm and mellow. I'll put Delci on the future list.
This is awesome review.
Super stuff Tony. Thanks!!

This is the Gone with the Wind of iem reviews. May need to take a vacation day to watch this. :)
Excelente reseña comparativa👏 Gracias!!
Haha wow the incredible breadth of IEM comparisons! Cheers Akros thanks always for the great reviews
Appreciate the information!
Que buen resumen. Agradecido por tan practico analisis. Saludos!!
New to the iem hobby , ordered the Delco after watch your video,.thank you.
Thanks Tony. Great review .😊
Great comparison.
Wow! 😮
Thanks for this massive comparison presentation Akros, man I think the question is, what IEM do you not have, you have so many.
iam enjoying this hour long video with a cup of americano coffee with coconut milk!

This videos shows how saturated the market is, in a good way I suppose. You need to put in an effort to buy something bad.
Would love to hear your thoughts comparing the Delci with the KZ EDC Pro

How does the Kefine delci compare to the Tangzu Fudu verse?
Hi friend. I can't keep up with all these iems on the table without them being labeled some kind of way.
Ok I will try to find a way to label them. My apologies
@@akros9333 that would be a nice idea. When there are a lot of them it's easy to get lost.
Or you can say the names when you point to the 😊 your comparisons and collection iare pure passion!
👍👍
Hi Tony, i am still curious about your answer to my questions below (shanling up4 sufficient? and if you had to choose between Delci and Artti T10?).
Hi Akros, I am looking for an iem under $110 best suited for rock genre, is the delci the best choice or are there better option out there under $100?
Are those stock cable or you buy them???😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Here in philippines Kefine delci have close price to moondrop aria 2, which should i choose? which is a better pick? please help me
How does delci compare against Oxygen? Is it similar to your comparison against Origin?
Quick question, artti r1 vs Delci?
Both are excellent....R1 a little more.forward....Delci is all about musical.elegance.
delci vs artti t10 ? they are at the same price
dang it, no Delci vs Moondrop May? i am thinking about these 2 at the moment. any feedback, please?

I would look at the Shio from Truth ears and if your budget allows it , go for CDA M1P from Colorfly

@@Bass_no_Treble finally i bought the EPZ Q1 Pro, and i know its lacking in bass, so i will eq it with 2 or db up, and lower the uppermids a bit.

Clear has very good bass , but it's emphasized when compared to Delci.
Delci is more balanced more correct sounding, while clear is coloured but fun.
