NiceHCK Rockies

• Jays Audio: Balanced, clean, airy, with a slight treble emphasis, good EST implementation, great overall package and accesories at the price. Similar to TOP PRO but with ESTs and not as vocal centric. Easy rec...
• Jaytiss: Trebble so nice. Feels faultless and amazing.
• Tim Tuned:  The Mega5EST but a slight bit more technical and bright
• IEMRanking AI: The NiceHCK Rockies is a five-driver tribrid using 1DD + 2 Knowles BA + 2 Sonion EST in a resin shell with Pietersite stone faceplates. Specs list a detachable 0.78 mm 2-pin cable with swappable...

Softears RSV MK II

• Jays Audio: Bassy dynamic all-rounder with great low-end texture that slams hard with good note-weight/body. Slight Hype 4 upgrade. Treble is smooth, and vocals are well-tuned. Overall unboxing/accesories are...
• Jaytiss: So Softears didn't forget how to tune. Tactful Basshead
• IEMRanking AI: The Softears RSV MK II refines the original RSV with an all-5BA design and a 4-way crossover, targeting a stable “reference sound” while improving driver control and airflow management. It’s...

Letshuoer Mystic 8

• Jays Audio: Vocal benchmark for female vocals under $2000. Clean, airy, sweet, ethereal. Better than Diva and direct upgrade to OG Oracle and OG Mangird Tea. What the Braindamage and Cantor wishes they could be....
• Gizaudio Axel: Neutral-bright tuning with natural midrange tone. Vocal-focused with realistic timbre.  Natural, lifelike mids and vocals. Refined treble with air and clarity. Good technicalities.  Light BA bass. Unvented design. Upper treble may bother those who are extra sensitive to treble.
• Jaytiss: Lack Bass Richness, but is a beautiful set.
• Super* Review: Surprising in a lot of fronts. Maybe a little bit overpriced but I like it
• Shuwa-T:  Vocal magic, midrange and upper mids are crystal clear while never being too technical  Both sub and midbass presence is less than normal which makes this more genre specific, not particularly suited for bass heavy genres

Thieaudio Hype 10

• Jays Audio: U-shaped, nice treble extention and dynamics, solid vocals, more low-end emphasis than MK3, dynamic and great all-rounder that doesn't specialize in anything.
• Gizaudio Axel:  More detailed Hype 4.  Too similar to the Hype 4.
• Jaytiss: It leaves me lacking nothing, just a fantastic set.
• Shuwa-T:  Rather similarly tuned to the Hype 4, which is regarded as a mini Monarch 3

Thieaudio Monarch Mk3

• Jays Audio: Better low-end texture and overall more engaging than MK2, but lacks the mid-range/vocal magic, so depending on your preference either is great. Still TOTL tech like MK2. Great all-rounder.
• Gizaudio Axel: I prefer the Monarch MK II for its tonality, vocals, and timbre, but I get why some prefer the MK III.  More bass, treble, and detail than the Monarch MK II.  The vocal magic of the Monarch MK II is gone.
• Jaytiss: Fatiging at times for me, too fun at times.
• Precogvision: Still perplexingly poor bass performance, but improves upon the Monarch MKII's treble extension noticeably.
• Tim Tuned:  MK2 but more fun and more V-shape  Not as natural in timbre
• Smirk Audio: Elevated, well-textured mid-bass. Pleasant mids. Elevated upper-treble may be pesky to some.
• Fresh Reviews: Borders A for some titles
• Shuwa-T:  Better bass response compared to the mk2  Trades off the lush midrange in place of a cleaner sounding, almost boring midrange
• Nymz: An improvement in the bass and treble department over the Mk2, but without the same special sauce in the mid-range and with some imaging problems still.

Intuaura Purple

Thieaudio Monarch Mk2

• Jays Audio: Neutral tuning with one of the clearest mid-ranges. Natural and clean vocals. Great resolution, separation, and detail. Can be a little dry with its analytical presentation. Bass is well-seperated...
• Gizaudio Axel: Outstanding tuning.  Smooth, balanced tuning with natural vocals, beautiful timbre, and excellent tonality.  Detail and could use more bass. Treble depends on ear tips.
• Jaytiss: Too much unit variation to recommend to others highly.
• Precogvision: A solid improvement in imaging with slightly more palatable tonality than its predecessor.
• Tim Tuned:  Cohesive, smooth, balanced, technical  slight treble wispiness
• Smirk Audio: Good treble with tons of air. Forward, ethereal mids. Good detail retrieval with tons of microdetails. Lackluster mid-bass.
• Shuwa-T:  Organic midrange  Wooly bass response and less prominent treble may not work best for certain genres
• Nymz: 11/10 mid-range. Mid-bass could use more texture and stage depth could be better. Yap, that's all. Oh and the fit - I'm blessed, but you may not be.

Letshuoer EJ07

• Jays Audio: TOTL mids. Most 3D and holographic staging yet. Imaging, separation, layering, and staging are all S level - only thing that's holding it back is the darker treble which can lead to softer notes vs,...
• Shuwa-T: Comment: My favourite of the EJ lineup.  Vocal centric with great clarity and thick note weights in the midrange  Bass may be too polite

Hisenior Mega5-EST

• Jays Audio: New unit is better tuned/balanced, smooth, good all-rounder, and sounds like adjusted diffusefield.
• Gizaudio Axel: A "plain water" type sound signature with a bass boost.  Great tuning, neutral with bass boost, smooth, safe, and balanced.  Could use more detail, incisiveness, and excitement.
• Jaytiss: If you get the good tuning, this is way higher.
• Precogvision: Very bouncy bass but midrange sounds sucked out and has some oddity. Original sounds more coherent even if less exciting/detailed.
• Tim Tuned:  Exceptionally tuned across the board  Could use more "wow" and details
• Super* Review: Fantastic tuning.. it really does not get better. Technical performance could be better.
• Smirk Audio: Well-tuned and great techs at this price point. Lacks dynamics and the mids are a little lean. Otherwise a great all-rounder.
• IEMRanking AI: The Hisenior Mega5-EST is a tribrid with a 5-driver array—1DD+2BA+2EST—using a four-way network and triple bores; published specs list ~25 Ω impedance and ~105 dB sensitivity, making it easy to...
• Fresh Reviews: Great for music
• Shuwa-T:  Bass layering, treble detail are excellent; midrange leans neutral and focuses on clarity over musicality  It is not for people who seek addictive midrange or musical presentation

Xenns Top Pro

• Jays Audio: Very technical, amazing resolution and detail for the price, treble is slightly crispy and sparkly, clean but dynamic all-rounder. Mid-volume set for the most part as treble can get hot at higher...
• Gizaudio Axel: A refined, genre-versatile all-rounder. One of the best in its price range.  Balanced tuning with clean bass, smooth vocal-forward mids, refined airy treble, and excellent detail and separation.
• Jaytiss: Has some odd warmth for me, but is great.
• Tim Tuned:  New meta tuning with boosted bass and upper treble  BA timbre
• Super* Review: A little bit unengaging to listen to. Bass kinda lacks definition. Kinda reminds me of the Mega5 EST. Not a bad IEM but not my favorite at 500 bucks.
• IEMRanking AI: The XENNS Mangird Top Pro is a 10-driver hybrid (2DD + 8BA) using a 4-way crossover and launches at an MSRP of $499. Headfonics details the allocation—dual dynamics for lows, Knowles BAs for mids,...
• Fresh Reviews: Best in Valorant out of the games tested

ThieAudio Origin

• Jays Audio: Best bassy set under $1K. Bassy/thicker meta tuning. You can actually feel the reverb and vibration from the bone conduction drivers, great control and low-end texture. Mids and treble are also well...
• Jaytiss: Great set, has a lot of positives and is amazing on bass tracks.
• Tim Tuned:  Mega bass additiveness  Bass too much
• Super* Review: Interesting sound. It becomes it's own thing. Fit is not great.
• IEMRanking AI: The Thieaudio Origin delivers a bass-forward signature with a substantial 12dB sub-bass boost that provides visceral rumble and slam, particularly effective for electronic or hip-hop genres. Despite...

7th Acoustics Supernova

• Jays Audio: Super smoooth. TOTL dynamics and treble air - dunno how they managed this airy and smooth with only BAs. Very clean, no sharpness, or sudden peaks, endgame separation and detail. Only drawback is...
• Jaytiss: Natural king. Special iem at any price.
• Precogvision: Nearly immaculate tonality, coherency, and timbre with reasonably good technicalities.
• Smirk Audio: Rich, honeyed timbre. Well-tuned with solid techs. A very smooth listen. Could use better resolution and incisiveness.
• Shuwa-T:  Lovely midrange, vocal-centric set that never sounds fatiguing  Techs are not class leading
• Nymz: Made to order - 60 days. Brilliant tonality with technical support, just lacking the last hair of detail. Transient sharpness and decay are on point. You will be hard-pressed to find better under 1k.

Aful Cantor

• Jays Audio: LOW VOLUME SET. Clean, airy, and highly resolving at its price with endgame separation and detail. Low-end is quick, but lacks impact and a bit of texture. Notes are on the lighter side, not very...
• Gizaudio Axel: One of the most resolving IEMs. It reveals details you’ve never noticed before.  Exceptional detail, neutral tuning, and great bass quality. Very revealing.  Could use more bass for my taste.
• Jaytiss: Maybe best detailed set, fit is extremely difficult.
• Super* Review: It's super impressive but also really difficult to edge on comfort. It's not my favorite sound but good sounding. Competing well at it's price point
• Shuwa-T: Comment: A massive improvement over the prototype at canjam, a killer set for techs under US$1000, nothing else really comes close. Finally a true u12t competitor with better fit, cable, and...  Crystal clear across all frequencies, extremely revealing set that slices apart the layers in the music; treble so nuanced yet pleasant that you cannot believe an all BA set is doing this  Less midbass presence, overall tonality can come across as a little too lean especially with treble focus

Thieaudio Oracle Mk3

• Jays Audio: Great bass texture, much better than predecessors, smooth and slightly airy giving it a sizzly timbre, great layering/separation, vocals are slightly laid back but not gone, very balanced across...
• Jaytiss: It's like a Pilgrim OG with EST. It's kinda cool.
• Precogvision: Pretty detailed but sounds incoherent, particularly in the treble, which also seems exaggerated in a bad way.
• Super* Review: A step in the right direction compared to mk2. I like this as much as the mk1. Solid all-rounder, good sense of separation.
• IEMRanking AI: The ThieAudio Oracle MKIII presents a divisive tonal character that splits listener opinions. Its bass response, driven by dual dynamic drivers in an IMPACT2 subwoofer configuration, offers textured...
• Fresh Reviews: Stronger in Fortnite and COD vs other titles
• Shuwa-T:  Midrange has a tinge of warmth, likely from the greater emphasis in lower mids  Bass definition and treble remains unrefined as with the Hype 2 and Hype 4

Unique Melody MEST

• Jays Audio: A MEST MK2 with slightly more uppermid/bass. More v-shaped. Even more AGGRESSIVE than MK2. Also gets fatiguing when cranked up/long-listening sesisons.
• Crin: A smooth, relaxing listen (in custom form) backed up with good technicalities.
• Precogvision: Engaging imaging with some minor coherency issues.
• Tim Tuned:  Impressive staging and details  Aggressive signature
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Neutral yet fun due to subbass hump.  Impressive clarity, holographic soundstage

EPZ 530

• Jays Audio: Great set for jazz/blues/soul/acoustic. Thick and lush. Warm but with nice treble extension. Solid tech. Vocals can be overly husky and buried in busier songs.
• Jaytiss: It does some things very well. Very good item.

ORIVETI OH700VB

• Jays Audio: Replaced by Astral. A more engaging Supernova, cleaner, with better sub-bass, and vocals. Very big stage and fantastic separation and layering. Vocals are airy without being too sharp. Lots of...
• Jaytiss: This is like a supernova with better Bass, but slightly less technical.

Moondrop X Crinacle DUSK

• Jays Audio: Inoffensive safe tuning, less fatiguing uppermids good for jpop/kpop. Vocals lack the last bit of extension, detail, and power. DSP APP is a shit show. Heavy competition from Nova, Cincotres, Hype 4.
• Gizaudio Axel: Excellent tuning and a highly detailed, all-around performer.  Great bass quality, rich vocals, balanced tonality, sparkly treble, and excellent resolution.  I prefer more bass.
• Jaytiss: Just a tad on the bland side.
• Tim Tuned: Pros: Balanced tuning with world class timbre decay.
• Super* Review: Overall high engagement factor.
• Fresh Reviews: Borders C+
• Shuwa-T:  The most neutral of the triple threat, caters to the safest of tunings

Softears Twilight

• Jays Audio: Slightly warm/neutral, very well balanced, good scaling, TOTL male vocals, big staging, wait for sale
• Gizaudio Axel: My top choice for timbral accuracy.  Beautiful warm sound signature with outstanding timbre and an open sound.  I wouldn’t change a thing.
• Jaytiss: It's like a tubed iem, it's really fun. Something about DDs, so good.
• Tim Tuned:  Warm tuning done correct, one of my favorite single DD  Need more treble

Moondrop S8

• Gizaudio Axel: Smooth, detailed, and balanced tuning.  Harman-like sound with plenty of detail.  BA bass.
• Crin: More faithful to the Harman target compared to the A8, with a smoother bass response.
• Jaytiss: Special set.
• Precogvision: Excellent treble extension and detail retrieval.
• Tim Tuned:  Smooth engaging harman signature with fun bass  BA timbre
• Smirk Audio: Very resolving with a sweet, pleasant timbre. Good mids and treble. Average bass. Upper-mids may be shouty to some.
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Technically proficient.  Clarity and tuning well done  BA timbre
• Bad Guy Good Audio:  Great detail,relax tuning upgrade of "A8"  only a slight upgrade to the previous A8

Night Oblivion Butastur

• Jays Audio: Overpriced as hell - I don't get the hype. Vocals are way too shouty with masking. Treble peaks around 10K with a dip in the air afterwards. Low-end is "good", but nothing amazing for the price....
• Jaytiss: I'd be careful buying it due to QC issues of others. But I enjoyed my time with it.
• IEMRanking AI: The NIGHT OBLIVION BUTASTUR delivers a natural timbre and cohesive sound, with its standout feature being a lush, dense midrange that excels in vocal and acoustic instrument reproduction. Vocals...
• Shuwa-T:  Similar tonality to the Supernova, please stronger female vocal extension at the cost of less refined treble, lovely midrange

Noble Fokus REX5 TWS

• IEMRanking AI: The Noble FoKus Rex5 delivers a detailed and resolving sound signature, leveraging its uncommon five-driver tribrid configuration (10mm dynamic driver for lows, three BAs for mids, and a 6mm planar...

Moondrop Variations

• Jays Audio: Very clear with lots of detail. Sub-bass has a nice rumble and texture. Amazing treble extension and stage air. Female vocals are vibrant and shines. Mid-bass cut is real, affecting some genres and...
• Gizaudio Axel: A solid benchmark.  Great sub-bass, Harman tuning, and excellent detail.  Can sound thin.
• Crin: Sub-bass-focused signature with Moondrop's clean tuning makes this one of the best $500 tribrids.
• Jaytiss: The more I listen the more perfect I find it.
• Precogvision: A more refined B2 Dusk with better bass texture and treble extension.
• Tim Tuned:  Great separation and details  Thin lower midrange
• Smirk Audio: Great tuning, neutral timbre, and a satisfying bass with a sub-bass focus. Solid all-rounder.
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Too much subbass, dry sounding lower mids.  Clarity Clarity  Subbass overpowers lower mids
• Nymz: Resolution king for the price point with a fun tuning. Great sub-bass and treble. Lack of mid-bass bass and somewhat thin mids murdered it for my library. Can see the appeal for others tho.

FlipEars Legion

• Jays Audio: Fun and bassy, v-shape, great low-end slam and texture, full, rumbly, solid tech imaging, and cool faceplate... but price is a bit high.
• Jaytiss: What this does well, it does very well. Fun set.
• IEMRanking AI: The FlipEars Legion makes a commanding entrance with its striking Roman legionnaire-inspired design, featuring jewelry-cast rose-plated brass faceplates hand-painted by master artisans in Bulacan,...

Hidition Viento B

• Tim Tuned:  Most speaker-like IEMs I've heard. Extremely cohesive  Timbre a bit grainy. CIEM graphs better
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Clarity takes a backseat with superb tuning.  As perfect as tuning gets  Bass quality is lacking in layering and detail

Softears RSV

• Jays Audio: One of the best vocals I've heard on any IEM (especially for male artists). Mids and Treble is TOTL, smooth and well extended and has great naturalness and the perfect bite. Bass has great speed and...
• Gizaudio Axel: I prefer the Studio 4.  Warmer, bassier, and slightly more resolving than the Studio 4, with great timbre.  BA Bass.
• Crin: Very well-balanced tonality with surprisingly good timbre, though slightly lacking definition.
• Jaytiss: Great upper treble, but its overall tonality isn't perfect.
• Precogvision: Well-tuned from top-to-bottom with good timbre. Safe to the point of boredom.
• Tim Tuned:  Timbre so beautiful you think it's not a BA set
• Shuwa-T:  Mid and vocal centric set, this is not reference tuning despite the name
• Nymz: A BA set that almost sounds like a DD. Needs low OI source. Bass close to U12T with more mid-bass impact. Great treble. Sub-bass and imaging can be lacking for some. My favourite vocals ever.

Kiwi Ears x HBB Punch

• Jays Audio: Endgame "balanced-basshead" set. Amazing low-end texutre, rumble, reverb, slam, and more bass than Origin and Titan - goes harder than those. Vocals and treble also still well extended, not...
• Jaytiss: It basically a cheaper Mega5est Bass. Great basshead set.

Softears Studio 4

• Jays Audio: Best all rounder under $500. "Correct" and neutral tuning. Perfect vocals, not as forward like RSV but zero faults. Slight Improvement over RSV in-terms of seapration and stage size/treble is...
• Gizaudio Axel: A benchmark for tonality and timbre.  Neutral, accurate sound with great bass, tonal accuracy, forward vocals, and natural timbre. Excellent isolation.  Unvented design and BA bass may not suit everyone.
• Jaytiss: Something magical about this set, but it's not the Bass.
• Precogvision: Sounds plasticky and smoothed; inoffensive to the point of being offensive.
• Tim Tuned:  Just great all around, balance with amazingly clean midrange

Elysian Pilgrim Noir

• Jays Audio: Good but expensive. Recommended if you can find it for around $500. Direct upgrade to the AFUL Explorer. Scales great. Reminds me of the EJ07M but a bit smoother and less dynamic. Prefer it more than...
• Gizaudio Axel: Sound is similar to the original Pilgrim.  Bassier than the original Pilgrim with similar resolution.
• Jaytiss: Way different than Pilgrim OG, less bright. Smoothe.
• Super* Review: Relaxed at the vocal region compared to orignial Pilgrim. Too expensive. Texturing is a little bit better than original Pilgrim
• Smirk Audio: Cons: Similar to Pilgrim OG at twice the price.
• Fresh Reviews: link is for the less expensive one

Sennheiser IE600

• Jays Audio: Tons of detail and amazing clarity. Stage is smaller than most IEMs at/below its price tag but very well defined details and imaging within that space. Bass is detailed, but amount is not as much as...
• Gizaudio Axel: Fun, V-shaped tuning.  Fantastic bass (both quality and quantity), great V-shaped tuning, excellent detail, and precise imaging.  Treble is too much, could use more vocal focus.
• Crin: Well-tuned mids, powerful yet controlled sub-bass, with highly extended (and somewhat spicy) treble.
• Jaytiss: Lots of upper trebble.
• Precogvision: Well-extended on both ends of the spectrum and adds back in the upper-midrange the IE900 lacked.
• Tim Tuned:  Very well rouned fun subbass focus sound  Treble might be too much
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Stock eartips are a disgrace.  Superb clarity with good tuning and bass response  Treble is on the energetic side
• Nymz: The most technical DD I've heard. Tuning is not perfect for my library - V-Shape. Get's a rec for those that really enjoy a well done V DD. Could use more stage size and bass impact. Fit is not the...

Symphonium Titan

• Jays Audio: Most balanced bass set I've heard so far without sacrificing the fun/texture/impact in the low-end. Open staging, full sounding, deep sub-bass, vocals aren't buried either. No big peaky treble, good...

TangZu Tian Peng

• Jays Audio: A cleaner more neutral Bajie with less bass and more treble energy. Clean, slightly vocal forward with some bite. Azla tips for more bass and treble energy/bite but can get shouty - Sancai Nobles for...
• Jaytiss: Packaging is fantastic, sound isn't...
• IEMRanking AI: The Tangzu Tian Peng offers a V-shaped sound profile that leans towards reference while maintaining musicality, with bass quality being notably source-dependent - it requires amplification to achieve...

Dunu DK-3001 BD

• Jays Audio: Technical, but thin, and bright tilt with LOTS of planar sizzle and timbre. Needs more low-end (small scoop), noteweight is very light, not peaky, but just artificial. Needs 10hm adapter to be...
• Gizaudio Axel: More mid-bass and less treble would be perfect  Excellent bass quality, deep sub-bass, transparent mids, and great resolution.  Low mid-bass, slightly lean vocals, and bright treble.
• Jaytiss: I prefer this with the adapter, but is fine without.
• Precogvision: Not to my taste - treble sounds slightly brittle and harsh - but plenty of resolution and clean presentation.
• Super* Review: My second 5 star IEM in 2024. The Braindance is a very satisfying IEM to listen to.
• Fresh Reviews: Some titles arguably A-

Letshuoer EJ07M

• Jays Audio: Holographic staging with an amazing midrange. Great bass texture and impact. Incredibly immersive and endgame for most. Has more sub-bass and treble air than OG doesn't scale as well.
• Jaytiss: Fit is an issue same as the Blessing 2 Dusk.
• Precogvision: Excellent tonality and dynamic bass held back only by a lack of intangible performance.
• Shuwa-T: Comment: EJ07 but more low end.  The bassier EJ07

Thieaudio Hype 4

• Jays Audio: One of the best all-rounders under $600 (v-shaped harman). Treble quality is smooth and well extended. Great low-end texture with lots of impact. Good vocals. Solid tech, and just solid in general.
• Gizaudio Axel: A fun and exciting IEM.  Fun, bass-boosted sound with powerful bass, great treble extension, and clear vocals.  Treble can be overly crisp at times.
• Jaytiss: Upper trebble is odd on many tracks, but is a strong set.
• Precogvision: Bass sounds somewhat 'BA-ish' for being DD, but well-tuned, decently technical, and a very solid package overall.
• Super* Review: Great imaging and headstage. Width is outstanding. Even at 400 bucks it's outstanding in this pricerange.
• Shuwa-T:  Contains some DNA of the well tuned Monarch 3

Dunu SA6 EST

• Gizaudio Axel: I prefer the SA6 MK II.  QDC Anole VX tuning, excellent resolution, and great bass.  Unvented design, no bass switch, and less airy than the SA6 MK II.
• Super* Review: Not a bad IEM if you get the right tips. It's a bit disappointing compared to the original SA6.

Tangzu Xuan Wu Gate

• Jays Audio: Clean, neutral, balanced, technical, laid back, very detailed. Neutral tuning done right while being a little dynamic/engaging. Tip wise Azla spinfits for more detail, tangzu sancai regular for...
• Gizaudio Axel:  Solid mid-bass, natural vocals, and detailed treble.  Treble is a bit elevated, and upper mids feel a bit relaxed.
• Tim Tuned:  Great relaxed tuning. Satisfying subbass and treble  Female vocal lack a bit of life

Mangird Xenns Top

• Jays Audio: What the Variations should've been. Fantastic tehcnincalities. Neutral-bright leaning. Nothing wrong with it at mid-volume, but I can see treble can be too much at highet volumes.
• Precogvision: Very inofffensive tonality with a soft treble response, sounds like lower and mid-treble are too recessed.
• Tim Tuned:  Exceptionally tuned, full range and detailed  Treble might be too much for some
• Shuwa-T: Comment: What Variations aspired to be.  Layered bass slam, full midrange  Lower treble gets a little hot, cymbal strikes too prominent
• Nymz: Best Mangird has ever done - a slightly more fun Variations. Very clean and technical with a boomier bass. Lower mid-range is still somewhat dry.

Moondrop Meteor

• Jays Audio: Neutral, clean and clear vocals, vocals pop out, good tech. Next to no planar timbre - one of the least planar like planars. Treble isn't sizzly and bright, but vocals can get shouty on energetic...
• Gizaudio Axel: I need more bass!  Forward vocals, super smooth treble.  Bass lacks weight, impact, and slam.
• Jaytiss: Bright leaning. But very nice when it hits.
• Super* Review: Objectvly great but unengaging. Not a set I reach for often. Maybe I am underrating it a bit.

Symphonium Audio Meteor

• Jays Audio: Meaty textured mid-bass, but can be a bit much. VVery warm sound. Library dependent. Airy treble, but vocals are a bit pushed back and buried.
• Jaytiss: I'm just not a fan of the tuning, but I can see how others might like it.
• Precogvision: A fun U-shape through and through, at the expense of some detail. Fantastic bass and upper-treble extension.
• Nymz: U-Shaped warm tuning that is as easy to love it as it is to rec it. Despite being a full BA, the bass has great qualities to it. Great techs given the price and tuning. I had to buy one myself.

Tigerism Sunflower

• Shuwa-T:  Planar with a well balanced signature and solid technicalities to boot  Separation is still a few notches below the greats, planar treble may bother the sensitive

Hisenior Mega5-EST +Bass

• Jays Audio: The Mega5est 7th but with more sub-bass. That's it. Does sound better now, more "musical" and less vanilla and boring. A good comforting and smooth listen that scales well. Bass texture isn't as good...
• Gizaudio Axel: Great for bassheads or sub-bass lovers.  Hisenior Mega5est with added sub-bass.  The bass might be too much for some people.
• Jaytiss: Smooth dark, and enjoyable.
• Super* Review: Good sounding IEM. Nice fitting. New Meta tuning with much more bass. But I didn't need that

Fiio FH19

• Jaytiss: A very pleasing Colorization, but not exactly what I love.

Symphonium Giant

• Jays Audio: Super warm and thick, mid-bass centric, basically the Meteor with less treble and more low-end, needs power, turns into basshead at higher volumes, very bassy.
• Jaytiss: There's warm, warmer, then a huge gap, then the Giant. Warmiest.

Dunu SA6 Ultra

• Jays Audio: An SA6 with improvement in treble extension, and stage air; better tuned Oracle2 with wider stage. Relaxing tonality but also very resolving. Airy stage with great depth and height. Smooth dynamics...
• Gizaudio Axel: Tuning style is a matter of preference.  QDC Anole VX tuning, excellent resolution, and great bass with a practical bass switch.  Unvented design.
• Precogvision: A slightly refined SA6 with better treble extension. Very coherent.
• Tim Tuned:  Anole VX-ish tuning with less treble and details  Could use a little more upper mids
• Shuwa-T:  More controlled tuning compared to the VX, while maintaining the excellent technicalities  Clarity and staging takes a hit; it is simply not on the same level
• Nymz: Limited run. A baby VX by a fraction of the price with less detail. Tastefully done tuning with incredible stage depth. BA bass and timbre are present, but you won't even mind given how good it...

Elysian Pilgrim

• Jays Audio: Clean, clear, all-rounder, similar tuning as the Dusk but with better vocals, bass quality is great as well, aethestically pleasing too. If you want a clean all-rounder, or sensitive in the 3-8K,...
• Gizaudio Axel: One of the most resolving IEMs under $1000.  Elysian house sound with a balanced tuning, textured sub-bass, smooth mid-range, well extended treble, and excellent resolution.  I prefer more bass.
• Jaytiss: Great little set to consider for those after an Elysian Product.
• Tim Tuned:  Most technical sounding IEM under $1000
• Super* Review: Not a bad IEM. Very solid but in this price range it's really competetive. Very safe tuning.
• Shuwa-T:  The most chaotic and in your face of the triple threat, more focus to subbass and treble

Thieaudio Clairvoyance

• Crin: Inoffensive, pleasant tuning specialising in extremely balanced tonality and bass control.
• Precogvision: A more pleasant, warmer Monarch with cutbacks in resolution.
• Tim Tuned:  Amazingly balanced tuning
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Subbass hump is real.  Balanced sounding across all frequencies

Sony IER-M9

• Crin: Neutral tonality, highly coherent and decent detail pickup. The all-rounder of the IER lineup.
• Precogvision: Boring, but you won't find anything more well-rounded for the price. Exceptional timbre for a BA IEM.
• Tim Tuned:  Just great accross the board, nothing to fault  Not very special

Kumitate KL-Sirius

• Crin: Excellent technical ability, well tuned with a dash of Japanese flavour.
• Shuwa-T:  Japanese tuning done well  Japanese reference bass may be too light for some

Lime Ears Model X

• Crin: Technically capable IEM that goes from decently neutral to warm and smooth in a pinch.
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Switches didn't work on my demo unit.  Clean sounding monitor  Linear bass region gets overpowered by lower mids, very strong BA timbre

Dita Mecha

• Gizaudio Axel: Cohesive sound with great detail.  Great bass, vocal-focused, cohesive sound with excellent detail.
• Jaytiss: This is the best Dita iem that I've heard, I dig it. Big and Bold Sound
• Super* Review: Warm laid back and base-forward. competes with other IEMs in it's price range.

Thieaudio Oracle

• Jays Audio: Amazing airy and relaxing vocals. Sweet and gentle presentation. Clean, clear vocals - could be too balanced tho. Great separation, but stage size could be better.
• Crin: Functionally similar to the Clairvoyance with slight cutbacks in overall clarity and resolution.
• Jaytiss: Great iem for what it is. Really impressive.
• Precogvision: Pleasant tonality, but low-level detailing and compression.
• Tim Tuned:  Tuning so good it melts your soul (kinda)  treble wispiness + slight incoherent
• Shuwa-T: Comment: A miniature Monarch.  Balanced sounding with good detail retrieval
• Nymz: Great vocals, very lean tuning. Not very technical for the price.

Thieaudio Monarch

• Jays Audio: Endgame clarity and layering. Great resolution, and open staging. Not holographic but very clean. Rumbly sub-bass but mid-bass tuck can kill some libraries, and affects vocal thinness.
• Crin: Neutral with bass boost
• Precogvision: Not particularly coherent, but an attention grabber with solid, surface-level detail.
• Tim Tuned:  Superb separation, fun clean signature
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Less steep subbass hump, clearer midrange.  Balanced sounding across all frequencies  Lower mids on thinner side

Kiwi Ears Orchestra

• Jays Audio: Great vocals. Clean and neutral signature. A bit vanilla and "boring" but scales great with volume.
• Crin: Very well-tuned reference-y signature with a mild bass and treble emphasis for added energy.
• Precogvision: Well-tuned with surprisingly good treble extension. Upwards compressed dynamics contrast poorly with tuning.
• Tim Tuned:  Slightly warm neurail tuning, well done
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Extremely balanced sound, my go-to for vocal tracks.  Mid-focused, minimal BA timbre, vocals intimate and forward  Low end is not the most dynamic, bass layering can be difficult to pick out

I/O Volare

• Jays Audio: Best Harman IEM under $600 (my unit is less harman), smooth and natural, great layering and tech, bass texture could be better/not as good as Oracle MK3, but overall very balanced and great...
• Jaytiss: Nice overall quality.
• Super* Review: If you are looking for the most bang for your buck in terms of the costs of materials - this is it. But not the most interesting sound.
• Shuwa-T:  Balanced subbass-focused tuning that borders the fine line between technical and boring, well extended treble that remains free of sibilance  The lower midrange does not sound the most natural despite how funny squiggly lines look

Dunu SA6 MK2

• Jays Audio: V-shaped SA6 Ultra with more recessed mids and vocals. Sharper and more bass than SA6U but mids are buried in busier tracks.
• Gizaudio Axel: Similar to the SA6 Ultra but with more bass, airier treble, and improved soundstage and fit.  QDC Anole VX tuning, excellent resolution, and great bass with a practical bass switch.  Unvented design.
• Jaytiss: Technical, nice but upper mids not for me.
• Precogvision: A warmer rendition of the original SA6, best considered a side-grade than a true upgrade.
• Tim Tuned:  Slightly more V-shape than the Ultra with small detail boost  Could use a little more upper mids
• Nymz: A more refined SA6u, with the freedom to boost the bass even more and costing less. Less natural upper treble at the cost of that terrific extension.

Simgot EM10

• Jays Audio: A more immersive version of the Pilgrim with better mid-bass kick. More airy and slightly more detailed in the treble. Harman vocal gain might be too much for some. Bass might be boomy depending on...
• Gizaudio Axel:  Bass-boosted Harman tuning, forward vocals.  Overall detail, PZT timbre.
• Jaytiss: Very Special set, but the Supermix might be the better value.

DUNU EST 112

• Crin: Good tonality, though the treble extension is its big Achille's Heel.
• Jaytiss: Has some great things. Nice technicalies. But lacks in tonality.

Tigerism Sun Wukong

• IEMRanking AI: The Tigerism Sun Wukong features an all-metal build with a striking Monkey King illustration, feeling durable but somewhat chunky. Its short nozzle and weight can lead to inconsistent fit and...
• Shuwa-T:  Sounds nothing like the DM despite being marketed as a bassier version. Lacks any sort treble bite, with all instruments requiring higher frequencies sounding muffled.

Yanyin Moonlight

• Jays Audio: Balanced, smooth, and clean presentation that scales beautifully with slightly forward/powerful vocals.
• Tim Tuned:  Great vocal centric signature & Imaging  a bit safe bass and treble wise
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Best tribrid around $600, addictive midrange.  Good detail retrieval backed by rich mids  Midbass light for some

FlipEars Aegis

• Jays Audio: Slight v-shape, but with less bass and low-end texture than Legion, more "balanced" and less engaging, but my unit was shouty and a bit sharp in the uppermids, also costs alot for what you can get at...
• Jaytiss: Shouty, bad, needs EQ, fully MID.
• IEMRanking AI: The FlipEars Aegis delivers a visually stunning and sonically powerful experience, featuring hand-painted, medieval-inspired rose-brass faceplates that make each unit a unique work of art. Its hybrid...

FATfreq x Effect Audio: Quantum

• Jays Audio: Bright and full sound, very detailed, sparkly, airy, tons of treble extenstion... but it gets fatiguing with the stock filters. Blue filter has the best balance but still doesn't scale too well. 300...
• Jaytiss: I don't want to like, but I love.
• Shuwa-T:  I struggle with this, perhaps it was insertion depth but that unconventional iem shape should never have been greenlit  Average bass, thin midrange, unbearably sibilant treble

Fiio FX15

• Jaytiss: Unique tuning, but the switch would be better in the mids or bass.
• Precogvision: Odd recessions in frequency response lead to unique imaging but uncanny tonality.

Dunu SA6

• Jays Audio: Gorgeous mid range and great dynamics. Good timbre makes me forget it's a full BA set. Good bass texture, but wish it had more rumble. Wish stage and imaging was more 3D. Could use more treble air...
• Crin: Tonality reminiscent of the Anole VX, though not up to the same level of technicalities.
• Precogvision: Slightly "wet" characteristic that takes the edge off of the qdc-inspired tuning. Very pleasant on the ears.
• Tim Tuned:  Engaging signature with great vocals
• Fresh Reviews: borders B-
• Nymz: Well tuned top to bottom only missing the last inch of extension. Bass has its quirks but a solid pick nonetheless and a great benchmark at its price.

Letshuore EJ07M Kinda Lava

• Precogvision: Basically the EJ07M with some adjustment to the bass for more clarity.
• Tim Tuned:  Balanced, Versatile. HBB's Best  Small EST (treble) incoherency
• Shuwa-T: Comment: My favourite out of the EJ lineup.  Excellent tonal balance, engaging midrange and somewhat pronounced treble  Driver flex is annoying though
• Nymz: Less sub, a hair more mid-bass 07m but well done. Keeps the techs and the other frequencies, adding warmth and bones to the mids and better clarity/coherency. I prefer it to stock 07m by a hair, but...

Fiio FH7S

• Jaytiss: Warm done well, but not good enough.
• Precogvision: Warm and gooey with some sparkle. Relatively pleasant overall.

Symphonium Triton

• Precogvision: Pleasing tonal balance and coherency, but not the last word in detail, especially relative to the Helios.
• Shuwa-T:  The more musical one versus the Helios  Cutbacks in clarity, a little too smooth sounding

Hidition Waltz

• Crin: Neutral-fun signature that works both as a reference monitor and a rock-out IEM.
• Precogvision: Fun tuning with Hidition's mid-treble sparkle and none of the Viento's nasty resoance.
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Nothing too amazing, V-shape with recessed mids.  Energetic sounding

Fiio FA19

• Gizaudio Axel: Great resolution and micro-details.  Warm V-shaped sound with bassy lows, sparkly treble, and excellent resolution.  Bass quality could be better and treble is bright.
• Jaytiss: Nice All BA set!
• Super* Review: I can't recommend this IEM. Even if it would be 1/10 of it's price.

DUNU Zen Pro

• Precogvision: Solid tuning with good speed. Could use more air and some minor work in the treble.
• Nymz: Great bass quality and slam, mids and detail. Stage and treble extension are not the strongest points. Great for instrumental playlists like jazz and classical. Very sensitive to source - "Amp...

Moritz Dragon

• Gizaudio Axel:  Smooth, cohesive Harman-like tuning with a single DD.  Overall detail.
• Jaytiss: Bonkers fun DD set, love it. Very V shaped.
• Shuwa-T:  The issue is not the sound but the build is criminally bad; a $600+ iem should not feel like a Wan Er

Ice Labs Prismatica

• Jaytiss: WARM!
• Precogvision: Fairly palatable, musical sound with some tonal oddity in the midrange.

Sony IER-M7

• Crin: Balanced across the board, though doesn't seem to excel in any particular area.
• Tim Tuned:  Very neutral tuning, great for audio work  Can be very boring

Tanchjim Darling

• Crin: A tad shouty but with excellent imaging performance.
• Precogvision: Excellent imaging, but with too much shout and an uneven treble response.
• Shuwa-T:  Imaging is TOTL  Somewhat wonky upper midrange

Sony XBA Z5

• Crin: All-rounder. Somewhat neutral both in FR and tonality.

Yanyin Carmen

• Jays Audio: An OG EJ07 that does vocal scaling. A blast your brains out kinda set. Full, powerful, extended, VERY forward vocals, might be too much for some people. Reveals every last bit of emotion from the...
• Jaytiss: I don't get this one. It's not good.

MIM Dark Magician

• Jays Audio: Weighted and airy vocals but with expansive staging. 3D/ball imaging. Coherency and dynamics are TOTL. Clear - details are "big"/forward, but can use better separation. Super immersive. Could use...
• Precogvision: Pleasant and smooth tonality; however, the DD being used does not seem very technical (for the price).
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Full-sounding note weight with proper bass layering, very coherent monitor.  Warm, "balanced" tuning that prioritises more midrange musicality, beautiful vocals, generally sounds coherent at all frequencies  Mediocre soundstage
• Nymz: Discontinued - new version isn't the same tuning. One of the best single DD sets you can buy. Micro detail level and bass texture are great for the tuning. Everything well done. Harder to get than...

Thieaudio Excalibur

• Crin: Probably the weakest of the ThieAudio tribrids, but still great on its own.
• Precogvision: Better clarity than the Oracle and more dynamic than most of ThieAudio's IEMs at the expense of some shoutyness.
• Shuwa-T:  Decent tuning  Narrower sounding, not as holographic soundstage as Oracle

ISN Audio EBC80

• Jaytiss: This is a nice set, great implementation of drivers.
• Shuwa-T:  Typical snappy V shape set with decent clarity  Driver incoherence is extremely apparent on this set, BA timbre plasticky

Mangird XENNS UP

• Jays Audio: Fast and clean bass but still rumbly and punchy. Beryllium DD baby. Well-seperated mids, and vocals still pop and aren't buried like other bass sets. Can use more treble extension (fixed with AZLA...
• Jaytiss: Highs on this set are very offputting.
• Tim Tuned:  Bass focus without over coloring. Smooth listen  Low energy, just okay note definition
• Shuwa-T:  Balanced sounding with good technicalities  A warmer, fuller-sounding, bassier Mangird Tea
• Nymz: The party starter. Very very warm, but fun. Different from anything else. Treble and mids somewhat ok even after all the warmth. Mid-bass is very good.
• Bad Guy Good Audio:  Guilty pleasures..love the slam, treble still fine. Beryllium baby!!

Shuoer EJ07

• Crin: Tuned almost Etymotic-like but with underwhelming treble extension bottlenecking it all.
• Precogvision: Decent tonality, but weak treble extension and technicalities.
• Nymz: The Experience. It just immerses you and takes you on a journey. Infinite holographic stage with god imaging and layering. Treble can be too dark for some. Great tuning and techs to me - My favourite...
• Bad Guy Good Audio:  Polite bass near perfect mids. relaxed tuned set  Lacks extension for some ears and genre. Personally love em

FATFreq Scarlet Mini

• Jays Audio: Crap ton of sub-bass but still very well-controlled (for the most part). No mud or mid-bass bloat, uppermids/treble are smoother than Maestro Mini, still somewhat balanced without having the low-end...
• Jaytiss: Ohh this set is a special love affair with BASS. Not Neutral lol.

Moondrop Illustrious

• Jays Audio: Basically the Softears Twilight with less sub-bass extension, alot more neutral and monitor like, and very pricy since Twilight goes on sale for $700 with a more musical playback. This is just...
• Gizaudio Axel: Open-back IEM with a mellow sound. Good for long listening but not for those seeking strong bass or high resolution.  Warm, full-bodied mids with natural timbre and safe treble.  Light bass with low sub-bass, lacking treble air and sparkle, and underwhelming detail.
• Jaytiss: Nice single DD, not a benchmark, but very nice.
• Precogvision: Sounds like it has metallic timbre. Percussino compression around 5kHz due to lack of treble extension and generally bad tuning.
• Super* Review: Sounds like an open-back IEM. It delivers on open design. Something to consider if you are looking for that.

Unique Melody Macbeth Ti

• Shuwa-T: Comment: Satisfying subbass hump, only second hand units available.  Clean sounding with forward vocals  Thinner sounding midrange

I/O Sogno

• Jays Audio: Literally Harman 2019. Inoffensive and good all-rounder. A little sharp in the timbre vs Volare (I'd just save up for the Volare if you want Harman), more low-end than Volare, better bass and timbre...
• Super* Review: It's a fine IEM if you look for something which is Harman compliant. It's a bit narrow sounding but pleasant.
• Fresh Reviews: Very Tip Dependent

Thieaudio Oracle MK2

• Jays Audio: CLEAR with LOTS of detail. Nice sub-bass rumble with no mid-bass bleed. Treble is super extended as well as high-mids. Female vocals sound lively and sings, but can be too much at high volume and...
• Jaytiss: It's a little bright.
• Precogvision: A brighter Oracle. Shouty upper-midrange and artifical sounding treble response.
• Tim Tuned:  Detailed, airy, mostly well tuned  dry timbre from treble amount
• Nymz: Great bass dynamics and well done mid-range. Treble extension is great but a hair too elevated.

Fatfreq Maestro Mini

• Jays Audio: A basshead set that's actually well-balanced for the most part. Extension on uppermids/highs are good but can get shouty, sub-bass texture and slam is impactful and satisfying - this is the set for...
• Precogvision: Extreme basshead's dream. Incredible sub-bass shelf while maintaining midrange and treble balance.
• Tim Tuned:  Bass cannon with correct vocals and treble balance  Semi thin vocals
• Nymz: F*** you, bass. Default rec for bassheads.

Yanyin x HBB Mahina

• Tim Tuned:  A more balanced Moonlight with better bass  a bit safe treble wise
• Nymz: Terriffic warm tuning only sinning by the lack of better bass dynamics. Treble is relaxed but "flat" with terrific extension. Works wonders for poorly recorded tracks.

GS Audio SE11

• Precogvision: Good tonal balance and fairly coherent. Bass needs work.

Fiio FD7

Moondrop Blessing

• Crin: All rounder that comes the closest to the Harman Target.
• Precogvision: Harman target hitter with surprisingly poor bass for a DD. Get the Blessing 2 instead.

Tanchjim Prism

• Precogvision: Somewhat tinny in the treble and generally anemic.
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Best release so far from Tanchjim.  Well tuned with good technicalities  Offers nothing special

Oriolus Isabellae

• Jaytiss: Awesome shimmer, and cool unique sound.
• Precogvision: Midrange doesn't sound very DD-like; more along the lines of etched and gritty perhaps due to 11kHz peak in treble.
• Shuwa-T: Comment: Impressive sound from a single DD.  Warm and pleasing tuning, sweet coloured vocals  Treble peak may annoy some

Fearless S8Z

• Crin: Solid all-rounder with a safe, pleasing tuning.
• Precogvision: A more aggressive S8P with even more grit/BA artifacting in the treble.

Dunu DK-3001 Pro

• Crin: Well-tuned and coherent. Does little wrong and very easy to like.
• Precogvision: Solid tonal balance but excessively rolled-off in the treble.

ThieAudio Voyager 14

• Crin: Evokes a qdc-ish house sound, though stumbles in both tuning refinement and technicalities.
• Precogvision: Good tonal balance and technicalities. Just lacking a few legs of refinement.

Yanyin Mahina

• Shuwa-T: Comment: Best yanyin so far.  Same as moonlight but heavier bass response  Because of the heavier bass region, it does not sound the most balanced

Kumitate KL-Corona

• Crin: Well-tuned with somewhat disappointing technical performance.
• Shuwa-T:  Decent tuning and capabilities  Nothing noteworthy, almost boring

Etymotic EVO

• Precogvision: Slight improvements in staging over the ER series, but with setbacks in the treble response.

Final Audio B3

• Crin: Probably the best tuned of Final's B-series. Reminiscent of the E-series with BA characteristics.
• Precogvision: One of the better interpretations of Final Audio's house sound with some decent technicalities.
• Shuwa-T: Comment: The middle model of the B series from Final.  Surprising clarity and 3D soundstage  BA midbass hump not the most natural sounding
