7Hz Timeless 2 VS 7hz x Crinacle Divine

Youtube Video Summary

7Hz x Crinacle Divine takes the familiar planar recipe and refines it. The shell is vented, comfortable, and highly isolating, with a flat 2-pin that makes cable swaps easy. The stock cable is 3.5 mm-only, chunky, and a bit memory-prone but usable, and the included case is surprisingly premium. Overall build and fit are faultless at the price.

Tonally, this is a fun, slightly V-shaped planar with thick, satisfying bass that avoids the pillowy feel many expect at this price. The midrange is clean and well-judged (occasionally a touch edgy on some tracks), and the treble brings air and sparkle without harsh peaks. Crucially, it sidesteps the usual planar “cat-ear” spikes around 2–5 kHz, focusing its energy closer to 3 kHz for presence that’s vivid yet controlled. Technicals hit the planar checkboxes—speed, separation, and an expansive stage—delivering a cohesive, engaging listen.

Against peers, Divine feels like a course correction: compared with the earlier Dioko it adds more bass weight and smoother treble; versus the twin Diablo, it’s less sizzly and more balanced. Sets like Letshuoer S12/Ultra still appeal thanks to accessories and value, but Divine’s tuning direction is special and, for many, more versatile. Verdict: an S-minus pick and a favorite planar at ~$150. Not for extreme bassheads, but for listeners who want great air, detail, and planar speed without the usual glare, this earns a wholehearted recommendation.

Youtube Video Summary

7Hz Timeless 2 arrives as a polished successor to the original, delivering a smoother, more refined treble and a presentation that feels less “planar” in timbre. Its headline feature is the interchangeable nozzle system that meaningfully changes the sound—three distinct tunings rather than subtle tweaks—so fit and flavor are easier to dial in. Technicals remain solid for the class (layering, separation, staging), but the emphasis shifts from raw edge to easy, airy listenability; compared to brighter, snappier planars, this one trades a touch of bite for balance and comfort. Pairing with regular Sedna-style tips further smooths the top end without dulling it.

Midrange is handled with a calmer 2 kHz region, so vocals sound less forward and less shouty on energetic tracks. The silver nozzle tames that zone even more, appealing to listeners who prefer flatter upper-mids while adding a sense of openness and clarity. Bass is punchy, quick, and clean with good impact that avoids bleed; it won’t out-slam a strong dynamic-driver set, but the planar low-end here feels tight and versatile, fitting an all-rounder profile. If ultra-etched detail and hyper-tactile treble are the goal, some rivals push further; if the priority is smoothness without boredom, Timeless 2 hits the brief.

As a value play, sub-$100 options still undercut it, yet the combination of refinement + three nozzles makes Timeless 2 competitive at its price. Owners of recent planars may find it a side-grade in sheer technicals, but for anyone starting fresh—or seeking a safer, fuller tuning that scales reasonably—this is a confident recommendation. Use the smoothing tips and select the nozzle that fits the library, and it becomes a comfortable daily driver for most listeners.

Youtube Video Summary

Timeless 2 shows up with a bigger, round shell (carbon-fiber face, metal rim), a nice hard case, and an oddball-but-cool ribbon cable on MMCX that feels a bit stiff. The real headline is the swappable nozzles: tiny side-vent “pin” nozzles (stock), a “flower” top-vent nozzle, and a large side-vent set. Tip pack is a colorful grab bag (no foams), and care is needed because narrow bores can block those side vents. Power isn’t a problem—this set is very efficient and plays happily from a phone or desktop amps without turning harsh.

Sonically, the three nozzles behave like three different tunings. The stock tiny side-vents are wide, chill, and distant—easy listening with big space. Swap to the “flower” top-vent and everything snaps into focus: detail rockets up, staging comes closer, and transients clean up without tipping into sibilance; bass also tightens and gains punch. The big side-vent option brings more bass weight and a huge stage, trading a bit of hyper-detail for scale and fun. Tip rolling matters: wide-bore silicone (e.g., Dunu SS) or high-seal foams can make it a party in the head, while tight-bore foams can choke the vents and thin the sound.

With the right nozzle/tip combo, Timeless 2 goes from “good planar” to aggressively engaging: thunderous taiko hits, breathing and string texture on acoustic tracks, and club-ready energy on electronic. It feels like the most complete planar IEM here—big soundstage, real bass presence, and crisp clarity that invites louder listening. If pricing sits around the speculated $260–$320 range, this could muscle aside a lot of sets under $500–$600. Verdict: a bold, successful experiment that delivers three flavors of planar goodness, with the “flower” nozzle as the standout for clarity + slam.

Youtube Video Summary

Timeless II modernizes the original’s high-detail character into a more approachable package. The headline is four tuning nozzles (Gold Flower, Silver Flower, Gold Bullet, Silver Bullet) that meaningfully shift presence/upper mids and treble, letting listeners choose between a relaxed, natural profile and a forward, planar-typical clarity. Build quality, modular cable and accessories are polished, fit is comfortable, and the overall aim is to give newcomers an easy entry into planar detail without the harsher edges.

With the Silver Bullet, vocals move forward with crisp articulation and strong resolve; the bass shelf sits near Timeless AE levels with clean definition, while treble is consciously smoothed to reduce planar sharpness and sibilance. The Flower filters sound more relaxed and dynamic-driver-like but give up some nuance and air. Out of the box it is not as perfectly balanced as the S12 2024 reference, yet the nozzle/foam system provides real tuning flexibility: small foam changes can restore upper-treble air and add stage height, making Timeless II a versatile, top-tier option at its price.

Youtube Video Summary

7hz x Crinacle Divine comes in at $150 with a planar driver, a clean neutral-leaning tilt and an all-chrome aesthetic. The accessory set is solid (case, cable, multiple tips) and the shells are comfortable for long sessions. Versus its sibling Diablo, Divine trims the low end for a tidier mix while keeping a modest punch, trading musical warmth for clarity and focus.

On the WallHack gaming rubric, Divine’s imaging, separation and layering are consistently strong—just shy of the “A-” tier but clearly competitive. In Valorant it earns a B+ and edges the Diablo thanks to cleaner footsteps in chaotic 5v5s. In Apex Legends it’s the clear winner: the reduced bass keeps cues intact when storms, grenades and third parties stack up. Call of Duty also benefits from the shaved low end—slides, footsteps and positional reads come through with better definition—while Battlefield favors the weightier Diablo for immersion. Overall, Divine is scored at a confident B+: a balanced, competitively minded planar that prioritizes readability and positional precision over sheer slam, making it the better pick for sweaty lobbies while the Diablo remains the choice for music and cinematic boom.
