Let customers speak for us
So this was my first ever iem. I think I picked the right one Choosing this. The one I got is type c with mic the mic is not that much but the iems are amazing. Has good details and sub bass. And for me I play a ton of games the details I'm getting on this is just crazy.
Good case to protect your iem
Such a great 👍 product
Great as its name klean fun energetic sound comfy for long periods it's been month don't need some high budget dac simple dongle can make magic
Still pretty new to the audio hobby so I didn't want to spend toomuch on a player, and this thing is perfect. It makes my IEMs way louder and cleaner than my phone did, and the orange color looks crazy good in person. Battery easily lasts me through a whole week of bus rides.
My mind is blown listening to the vocal clarity and instrument separation, and yeah I'm using it without a dac 🤯
best for gaming in this budget and i love the service from the audio store ❤️✨
Superb iem
I got the recommendation from reddit and some YT videos and these the the best IEM for 1k in my opinion. if you are looking for budget IEMs go for it. i just found the treble to be on the higher side and the quality of the cable feels cheap but if you want value for money and care about the audio quality. go for it !
Good decent bass and excellent vocal vlarity and warm treble section. Total nice at this price range
Clean, detailed sound with good clarity.
Tight and controlled bass rather than overly boosted bass.
Forward vocals and clear mids. Very good iem
Simple definition: someone tried to make a iem, said screw it and made it as tws, that's it nothing else, sounds very much above it's price, no freaky ahh bass (like our water floater called boat).
Initially sounded terrible I was like what and then I found the issue, my liquid silicon tips actually altered the sound of it and so I had to use default tips which are actually small
Fit is little bit on weaker side with default tips but you should probably update a better tip without a graphite core like mine.
Easy ordering process, good packaging, and timely delivery. Overall, a smooth experience.
The IEMs are doing fine after 8 months of heavy use. they still feel as good as new. I use them every day. The sound experience of these IEMs is just so good for the price. I play a lot of games, listen to music, and watch multimedia content, and I get the same amazing, immersive experience across everything. If you guys love a lot of punchy bass, you'll love these for sure. Also, a massive W to The Audio Store for the great service.
Really loved the earphone.Sound is just awesome
