As the topic suggests I’m looking to buy an iem with a budget of around $300 USD. Dac and Amp isn’t a concern as I’m gonna use them with a btr5. As for sound signature, I’ve no real preference as I listen to a very VERY large selection of genres of music, ranging from game ost to hip hop to edm to metal to pop song, anything that sounds good is good to me (What I’m trying to say is I’m extremely open to suggestion) I’ve tried a few already at a local shop and here’s some of my impression of them,
Tanchjim Hana - Great vocal and details, Sharp high-end (ear hurty)
Starfield - Comfy and bright great but not very wide
Honeydew - Punchy bass ok mid sweet treble overall airy
Satsuma - Slight bass boosted detail centered mid bright treble
OH10 - BASSSSS overall detail is great wide sound stage POOPY cable
This is the same guy who liked the Satsuma, which I did purchase. They are ok and I love them for their lightness and size but sound wise they are only ok, nothing compared to the Thieaudio Oracle in terms of tonality. So I don’t necessarily trust this review as the PD1 is getting panned by other reviewers. I could purchase the PD1 for half it’s price used right now but I’m reluctant to throw money away and I don’t like selling used gear.
But ones a $200 “budget” iem and the other is $500 flagship tho 0.0
Ah, I see
Sure I’ll give it a go
Its’s there any iem tune like the satsuma and honeydew (mild v-shape?) but better overall, what about the oh10? Where does it stand among this price point (they are on a slight discount recently so I might consider them)
