KING. Special. Inoffensive. But honestly where bass? Jaytiss Youtube Channel

Foam helps tame uppermids/treble. Amazing detail for price and new benchmark below $100. Better tuned "softer" Dusk with slighlty less accurate imaging. Note-weight can be light. Jays Audio Youtube Channel
Well done, clean midrange focus tuning Can be fatiguing in the treble Tim Tuned Youtube Channel
Unique neutral-bright sound signature, but overall feels a little unengaging. Clean, clear vocals with decent detail. Bass quality and impact, mids can feel lean, and treble can get a bit bright.Gizaudio Axel original ranking

Comment: A mini B2 minus the good stuff. Tuning done well, similar to B2 but less in everything Somewhat crammed soundstage
Like the B2 but a step down in resolution and separation - very well-tuned - could use a tad more bass quantity and tighter bass (it sounds a bit fuzzy and loose - I guess they aren't using a very good DD), and better treble (this problem can be fixed by using wide bore tips). Great value for $79 - no comfort, fit, or QC issues like the B2 but in exchange. Previously Owned
Sounds like a warmer, lo-res Moondrop B2, emphasis on lo-res in the bass. Precogvision Youtube Channel

Great detail & clarity. Fit took a long time to get used. Very clear and natural mids and treble. Lacks lower-extension, and couldn't handle bass notes on Time by Hikaru Utada (0:40+). Jays Audio Youtube Channel
See ER2XR but with less sub-bass. Precogvision Youtube Channel
Great detail Intrusive fit Tim Tuned Youtube Channel
Old, Treble for days. Jaytiss Youtube Channel
