Did anyone try the Airpods Pro 2? A lots of reviews tend to better audio and I was wondering how they compare to wired options in the 100-500 USD brackets
The sound is about $500. This made me wonder if there was something wrong with the Chinese! If TWS can sound like this without cable, then why do we buy wired??? I’m a big fan of them.
What a wonderful deal mahn. Surely you’re going to sell these fast.
Thanks. I have the OG and was wondering if an upgrade is worth it.
$3k for a single DD set, madness I say …
Well, if Etymotic can be the most accurate since 30 years or so with only 1 DD and Final Audio can sweep the budget floor with 1 DD e Line and many great examples of DD usage can be exampled; belive in DD magic man
Can I say these crazy prices don’t even surprise me anymore?
Prices went crazy. If world inflation continues a little longer, next year these IEMs will be considered cheap! I believe in the development of technology, but not exactly in Singapore.
P.S. They might be good though
VS OG AirPods Pro it’s clearer with a bigger stage, imaging/separation also a little better, but vocals are not as forward. I think they’re worth it for the transparency feature alone, where sounds over 85db outside are automatically lowered REAL TIME to a safe listening level. So ya, I’d upgrade, but then again I did end up returning my AP2 since I already really liked the OG and I don’t use them much (only when I workout), but if you use them almost daily then definitely upgrade imo.
AirPods Pro 2s to me are the same level as the Olina. Great clarity and stage, but the things holding them back from endgame sets like the EJ/Oracle2/MMK2 are micro-details/texture, and 3D/separation. Best TWS for my library. YMMV.
Was originally going to remake these vids, but I ran out of time. They were rushed, and the audio/editing is… not the best but here ya go if it helps:
Thanks a lot ! I actually saw the second one, I will watch the first too.
Right now I’m listening to Jason Richardson with the Pods2 and I’m hearing more detail than with the FH7 and 07m!
Interesting Dunno about the 07M, but Oracle2 definitely has more treble and bass detail vs AP2. Oracle2’s a detail monster under $1K; I’d place it around the same level as the Variations/Monarch MK2. And to be fair Olina (around the same as OG Tea if not more) has very good detail already, so AP2 definitely not a slouch.
Oracle2 must have more clarity, I haven’t listened to them. They are also more expensive than Pods2 and have a cable . This does not negate the fact that Pods 2 can compete in price up to 450-500 dollars. By the way, the dynamics is much better than FH7 and B2 and competes with 07m, and for me dynamics is very important.
Got in touch with Joseph regarding issues with my EJ07s. Looks like I’ll need to send them back.
Has anyone here had any experiences with an RMA to Letshouer? Just want to gauge process and turnaround time. It’ll be my first time doing an RMA for any of my gear - anything specific I should look out for?
Make sure you have the proper/exact name of the company you are sending to China, one thing the courier asked me to do when I sent mine for repair to make sure my package does not delay I believe.
You can also double check your details with Joseph, he’s very helpful
My Kinda Lavas are bound for Letshouer right now. Awaiting warehouse scan in Dongguan. It’s been a nail bitting journey until they’re in Letshouers hands. Now it’s held up because I marked the import documentation as repair but, for the full value new in case it’s lost. I guess be prepared either risk no insurance if lost and mark the package at a low price or mark it correct and pray customs doesn’t hold hostage.
Y’all have tighter sphincters than me. My butthole could not handle the stress of sending my IEM back to China for re-tuning.
Godspeed to you!
Didn’t really have much of choice. Either send them back or be left with a useless purchase. Unless I found probably the one in a million person with the right side broken and sold mine or bought their left.
