Tripowin x HBB Olina Reviews
Pretty good for the price but a little bright/shouty stock. Slap a second stock filter on top, and it's much improved! Good vocals-focused set with decently sparkly treble and good bass punch. Technicalities are quite good for the price. Average stage but has decent imaging. Previously Owned
New HBB Xuan NV is just the way to go over this. Jaytiss Youtube Channel
Exellent tonality and shimmer (for a DD); nonetheless, could possibly benefit from better layering chops. Precogvision Youtube Channel

Close to Oxygen but for 99$ with better fit. One of the best price-to-performance you can get at the moment. Good imaging, great stage presentation and very balanced harman tuning. If you don't wish to mod, grab Olina SE instead.
