TWISTURA WoodNote VS BQEYZ Cloud

Youtube Video Summary

TWISTURA WoodNote comes in on the pricier side at $180, touting a wood diaphragm and a surprisingly excellent cable—arguably the nicest of the bunch. The shells fit well and feel thoughtfully built, though the chin slider is basically decorative without a DIY fix. Ergonomics aside, this package reads premium where it counts: comfort, accessories, and overall presentation.

Sonically it’s a lively, V-shaped tuning with a bit of lower-treble/presence lift that pushes vocals forward without tipping into sharpness or sibilance. Imaging is tidy with a decent headstage; the bass isn’t the tightest or most incisive among peers, but the whole presentation stays engaging and balanced enough for long sessions. More energetic than a safer, neutral set yet less fatiguing than the spicier options in the round-up, WoodNote earns a confident B-tier placement—an easy pick for listeners wanting a brighter, livelier single-DD that still plays nice over time.

Youtube Video Summary

TWISTURA WoodNote is a single dynamic-driver IEM that leans premium in presentation: compact metal shells with recessed 2-pin, proper venting, and a smooth, durable finish. The kit is generous—multiple eartip sets, a plush case, and a supple modular cable with a twist-lock plug (swap to 4.4 mm if needed) plus a firm chin slider. Its party trick is the trio of tuning nozzles—Normal, Vocal, and Instrumental—that subtly shift energy through the mids/upper-mids; Normal comes across the most balanced, while Vocal and Instrumental add presence and bite. MSRP hovers around $189 (previously spotted lower), and availability is broad through the usual audio retailers.

Tonally, this set pursues a warm, mild V-shape with easygoing musicality: full mid-bass, rich lower mids, and a smooth, inoffensive treble. There’s a touch of metallic timbre at times and the top end trades precision and “air” for comfort, so micro detail is merely decent. What stands out is the sense of space—a slightly “hollowish” stage that feels open without turning sharp—and an overall engaging, fatigue-light listen. Nozzle rolling meaningfully nudges its character, but the core signature stays clean, fun, and broadly genre-friendly.

Against peers, AFUL Explorer offers more technical clarity, air, and bass control, while WoodNote counters with better build, packaging, and tunability. Versus sets like Binary Chopin, expect thicker upper mids from WoodNote but less etched detail; compared with “Volume S,” the similarity in warmth is clear, though WoodNote’s treble is less incisive. In a crowded ~$180 bracket (think JM1, ZiiGaat Lush, Cadenza, etc.), this feels like a dark-horse: not the most unique or analytical, yet strikingly well-rounded, gift-ready, and satisfying for DD-timbre fans who value smoothness over scrutiny. Final word: a solid 83/100—competitive at MSRP and an even sweeter pick if found closer to that lower street price.

TWISTURA WoodNote shows up with a surprisingly premium kit: a super-nice box, a plush purple case, chunky stock cable (beefy and good-looking, though the earhook angle begs a quick heat-gun/hair-dryer fix), and interchangeable nozzles labeled Standard, Vocal, and Instrumental. The shells are small and comfy, with a soft grip fin that makes insertion easy. Under the hood: a single 10 mm dual-cavity DD with a “revitalized wood diaphragm” pitch. The accessory flex continues with four custom tip trays—including sticky/tacky clears and wide-bore options—so there’s plenty to tune before touching EQ.

Sonically, this is a big-stage, high-energy single-DD that favors imaging and note weight. With the Standard nozzle, the balance clicks: bass hits confidently without smearing, mids stay forward/focused, and treble extends cleanly without turning spicy. The Instrumental nozzle pushes air and sparkle but tips into too-much-treble territory; the Vocal option feels “off” versus Standard. Drive is easy, and character shifts nicely with source—clean/linear, warm, even tube bloom. Played too loud, the midrange can get shouty; back off a couple dB and it snaps back to “ahh, that’s right.”

Value check: discovered around $180, which feels like a cheeky sale price on a set that performs closer to $220. The cable angle quirk is fixable, the nozzle filter deltas are subtle (stick to Standard), and the accessory spread is downright generous. Net take: a solid, fun, aggressively big-sounding single-dynamic that earns full marks for the money—great for music, totally game-ready, and easy to recommend if a lively stage and crisp imaging are the brief.

BQEYZ Cloud comes in a fairly simple package with a semi rigid pocketable case, a very soft selection of narrow and wide bore tips plus foams, and a thin but pliable cable available in multiple terminations. Build is solid with a vented shell, metal nozzle and nearly flush 2 pin socket, and comfort is easy thanks to the lightweight design and pre formed ear hooks. Priced around mid fi territory, Cloud clearly aims for a vocal centric tuning rather than a bass head crowd pleaser.

The bass is clean, clear and detailed with good slam, but sits slightly below neutral in quantity, with less mid bass punch and sub bass rumble than many listeners might expect for hip hop or EDM. There is no bass bleed and the transition into the lower mids is tidy, yet this leanness robs male vocals and lower instruments of some natural thickness and weight, making voices like Barry White or Johnny Cash sound a bit thin. Where Cloud really shines is the upper midrange, where the presence lift delivers excellent vocal clarity and articulation, putting both male and especially female vocals front and center while exposing small breaths and nuances in recordings.

The treble is energetic with a lot of air, clarity and detail, and although a bit peaky at times it generally avoids harshness, especially with the included foam tips. High frequency sounds often feel as if they come from a separate distant tube just outside the ear, giving Cloud a uniquely spacious and separated top end that works brilliantly for vocals, acoustic instruments, jazz and even positional cues in gaming. Overall soundstage width and imaging through the bass and mids are only average for the price, and detail and instrument separation trail sets like EA1000 or Relentless, but Cloud still offers excellent vocal focus, airy treble and a distinctive high frequency presentation for listeners who value clarity and midrange detail over slam and warmth.
