Just checked this out. Yeah, you nailed it. It’s fine and if you nitpick the sets you can find it’s thing it does a little bit better, but seriously it is just another competent $20 set in the market.
We like good sets, but there is no reason to buy them all.
The Simgot and JD7 looks interesting! I’m also eyeing the 7th Acoustic Supernova, but dunno if I’m willing to drop that amount of cash for what looks like a sidegrade to the SA6U:
@GooberBM I’ll put the JD7s on my list. So much things to try At first I miss-read as FD7 cuz you know Fiio - F, and I was like $500?? So this price is much better
If you try to measure it against sets that are trying to be balanced, are trying to have a clean tuning, and are trying to appeal to a wide audience, then it fails miserably.
If you judge this as “can you make deep, stinky, dirty bass and still have a level of musicality?” then you can’t really touch this under $100 and the Focus EDM is discontinued and hard to find. I love it for a completely niche IEM set!
Not balanced in the best way possible Makes everything so much more immersive. Honestly would love to see a 2DD set tuned this way instead of the harman scoop mid-bass.
