Bombardment of iems, but of quality price? Suggest me a good iem

It’s hard to say as I had the oh10 about 3 weeks ago, I wouldn’t say the Aladdin’s have a wide soundstage but the separation and imaging is better than the oh10. I remember a slipknot song coming on the OH10 and it just sounded muddled up to me.

That’s because it’s V shape. They get clarity from elevated treble but on the other side you loose clarity/definition of the bass

The Aladdin soundstage has more height and depth than the Oxygen and the S12 IMO

O just saw this exact comment on the Oxygen thread, the O2 is not known for huge stage just average. But it does have good imaging.

Yeah, the Aladdin definitely has more holographic soberana soundstage than the O2.

And compares vs spring 2, timeless or tea? (they are main top in ears i had/have)

I don’t have them, sorry

Any could do any comparison between aladin and timeless?

Aladdin will have better stage, imaging, a more darker tuning, DD punch, DD timbre.

Timeless will have a more balanced tuning but treble is hotter. Resolution and dynamics are over the roof compared to Aladdin. Stage and imaging are a bit clunky.

Between the two: Buy Mangird Tea and S12 :upside_down_face:

Aladdin vs Teas, in case you missed it.

Really depends on what sound signature you’re after - after all, one is a hybrid and other is a planar. If your budget is around 250, then Aladdin is a better all rounder with better fit and QC.

If you want to stretch your budget, then Tea sounds like the obvious rec.

I sold the Tea. In my A/B comparisons I found it very similar to timeless.
Timeless does what Tea does with better instrumental separation, more coherence, a bit more detail. The tea has a more holographic soundstage and can even be more fun with some songs.
The Tea’s setting is better.

Honestly both are fine.

If you’re happy with Timeless, I’d say to just buy nothing else unless you wanna go to the 600usd zone.

If I’m looking for something “better” it’s not that it gives you more bass or more treble… it’s an improvement in definition, holography, dynamics, X/Y/Z stage.
Of course I value coherence but personally I don’t like to change my iem just for a tonal adjustment (more treble for example…).
I would have to go to a Monarch…

Just received my Yanyin Aladdins. What I lose in sub bass rumble compared to the Meles, it’s made up in a more coherent and clear sound signature. So far I’m impressed and will continue testing against my library.

nice! glad you are enjoying them :slight_smile: Aladdin has much better treble extension than the Mele. It’s a clear upgrade, so congrats!

The sub bass rumble is still there but not as pronounced on the Meles, I am however enjoying the vocal presence and feel enveloped :raised_hands:t5:

Any iem to compare?

Just the mele. They are a clear upgrade for me and suit my ideal sound signature. To pay double for only another 5-10 improvement - no thanks!! I paid £200 total for the aladdins. I think I’ve found my endgame. Thanks for all the feedback

Congrats my dude - they certainly keep me and a few others on here very happy!
