I prefer more bass. Great tuning with forward vocals and excellent detail. Unvented design, BA bass, and can be slightly shouty on some tracks.

Youtube Video Summary

Softears RS10 targets a Harman-leaning reference balance with a clean, studio-grade presentation: bass is tight and linear with modest mid-bass punch, prioritizing speed, texture, and separation over slam. The midrange sits neutral and coherent, giving vocals accurate body without bloom, while treble extends with air and micro-detail that spotlights room cues and trailing reverbs. Staging focuses on pinpoint imaging and layering more than sheer width, creating a precise, microscope-like view into mixes that rewards high-quality recordings.

On the flip side, the tuning’s discipline means sub-bass rumble and warmth are restrained, and the upper-treble focus can read energetic on hot masters. It excels for critical listening, fast genres, and complex arrangements where transient clarity matters, but bass-heads and those seeking plush note weight may prefer a richer set. Build and isolation are solid, comfort is stable for long sessions, and the overall package feels polished and technical—a premium, detail-first monitor for listeners who value accuracy over indulgence.

A little shouty and intense but very resolving and well-defined. A somewhat refined Moondrop S8.
Youtube Video Summary

Softears RS10 targets the top of the detail game at $2,100, but its extras feel dated: a leather hard case, pouch, tips, metal card, and a basic cable—often without interchangeable plugs (current Hangout stock is 4.4 mm). The shell is fully filled resin with a glass-like look that reads premium despite the old-school accessory pack.

Tuning skews a brighter V/U-shape—think JM1 diffuse field (5128) with a bass shelf. Bass is competent, not class-leading at the price; the real draw is the treble: forward, incisive, and surprisingly non-sibilant. RS10 is a detail monster that shoves low-level information to the front and actually has the resolving ability to render it—thrilling for analysis, but intense over long sessions.

Best for listeners who explicitly want maximum resolution and can handle a more energetic top end; less ideal for those seeking a laid-back or warm signature or a luxe unboxing. Price and intensity are the trade-offs; the payoff is one of the most resolving presentations available with a tonality that stays natural-leaning despite its brightness.

Fantastic detail and clarity. Bass is quite an upgrade from its predecessors, but still lacking some salt to its lower mid-range. Not the easiest to love, but also hard to fault. Tiring after a not-so-long session.
