Fir Audio KR5 Reviews
Fir Audio KR5 reviewed by: Shuwa-T
Comment: Silver model tested. W-shaped tuning with excellent clarity; detail-focused iem Midbass hump can interfere with the midrange on crowded tracks
Canpur CP74E Reviews
Canpur CP74E reviewed by: Smirk Audio
Punchy bass with some bass body bloat. Pleasant, euphonic vocal timbre with good note body. Decent treble minus the lower/mid-treble dip.
Canpur CP74E reviewed by: Shuwa-T
Retains all the techs of the 622b with a more tamed bass presentation, overall arguably more balanced sounding than the 622b Bass transition to lower midrange may not work well for slower genres requiring a higher midbass shelf; less versatile
