Basically the modded Zero with slight more bass, airy and least shouty $20 sets.

Another harman-ish tuning. Similar to Tanchjim One but not as smooth.

Pleasant tonality but somewhat slow, blunted sounding with not much else going for it.

Tonality is pleasant, but it's mushy sounding and low res. Gets a very strong recommendation from me because of the cable. The cable would be a good value even at a higher pricepoint than the IEM.

Truthear Hola Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C+
  • A mostly enjoyable signature keeps things listenable despite a handful of quirks. It handles most playlists without major complaints.

Average Technical Grade

C-
  • Resolution is limited, masking finer nuances and narrowing the soundstage. Busy mixes still overwhelm it with ease.
Bass B-
Low-end delivery feels competent yet unremarkable, keeping a safe profile. Low-end bloom is kept in check.
Mids C+
Expect a competent midrange that keeps vocals grounded and instruments clear. Tone is acceptable across multiple genres.
Treble C-
The top end sounds acceptable but lacks the smoothness of higher tiers. Air is hinted at more than delivered.
Dynamics D-
Dynamic range feels limited, smearing micro-contrast and transient attack. Soft details are smoothed into the background.
Soundstage D
Depth collapses quickly, so even with stereo cues the scene feels cramped and two-tiered. It feels constrained even with live tracks.
Details D+
Modest detail presentation that sacrifices texture and masks subtle nuances. It conveys the basics but not the nuance.
Imaging D+
Modest imaging with basic left/right positioning that never quite nails the center image. Left/right cues exist but are rough.
Gaming C-
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

B+
  • Expect a friendly tonal balance that could use polish but remains inviting. Great for casual listening, less so for purists.

Average Technical Grade

C
  • Even moderate complexity exposes the limited resolution and narrow sense of space. Technical fans will find it lacking.
Gaming C+
Fundamental left/right positioning with limited depth perception. Works for non-competitive gaming but lacks precision.
