Deep, warm, bassy sound with suprisingly energetic treble. Fun Set. Build quality is a little sub-par at this price point.

The original Wan'Er. But with a better cable, better build, a full set of Tang Sancai Tips, and a nicer, more premium feeling build. Same great vocal focused sound.

Balanced All-rounder. Basically the same as OG Waner but with a little more treble air, helps boost resolution and imaging by a tiny tiny bit. Accesories are great for the price, sancai tips + nice cable

7Hz x HBB Elua Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C+
  • The tuning leans easygoing, yet occasional unevenness nudges it away from greatness. A bit of EQ polish can smooth things nicely.

Average Technical Grade

C-
  • Textural information blurs together, making the stage feel pinched and gray. Instrument edges blur together frequently.
Bass C-
Expect a conservative bass profile that maintains order but little excitement. Basslines track along but rarely stand out.
Mids C-
It delivers a workable midrange that could benefit from smoother transitions. Timbre isn't quite convincing yet.
Treble D
Treble response is uneven, jumping between dull spots and sharp peaks. Peaks poke out unpredictably.
Dynamics C-
Dynamics are average—competent yet lacking real excitement. It keeps music listenable but uninspiring.
Soundstage C+
It pushes sound outward confidently while leaving height development as an unfinished idea. Height remains subtle but detectable.
Details C
The presentation is fine for casual listening but leaves refinement on the table. There's some grain on quieter elements.
Imaging C
Depth hints are present though they rarely extend far beyond the stage front. Movement effects are understandable.
Gaming C
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

B
  • Expect a friendly tonal balance that could use polish but remains inviting. Great for casual listening, less so for purists.

Average Technical Grade

B-
  • Technical ability is serviceable, keeping basic detail intact across simpler tracks. It keeps up with acoustic tracks without much fuss.
Mids B
It offers engaging mid frequencies with pleasing clarity and layering. Details emerge without becoming harsh.
Treble C+
Treble is decent, offering acceptable extension without harshness. It balances presence with a touch of restraint.
Dynamics C+
Expect solid impact overall, even if finer gradations feel a touch smoothed. Micro-details could still be sharper.
Soundstage C+
Decent spatial presentation with noticeable width and a modest step forward in depth perception. There's a mild sense of width to enjoy.
Gaming B-
Moderate spatial presentation conveys general directionality. Suitable for casual play where precision isn't critical.
