Just excellent

Posted
By AstralStorm

Pros: Very well balanced and very precise sound, no major flaws, adjustable nozzle angle

Cons: Slightly springy cable, over-the-ear only, sibilant/presence boosted with certain tips, slightly warm, could have more highest end

VSonic GR07 is a great example of IEM strong because it has few flaws and almost all of these are possible to correct with a good equalizer. Bass is perfectly controlled, excellent texture, very well extended (-6 dB at 30 Hz with perfect seal), perhaps a bit warm due to high-bass boost (~250 Hz). No bass bleed is present. Mids can be slightly forward to slightly laid back depending on tips and depth of fit. Highs... here's the issue. With shallow insertion, there can be a fair amount of lower highs boost, around 6kHz, which combined with some highest end peaks can sound sibilant. Using foam tips helps with this, deep insertion completely removes this issue. GR07 don't have a lot...

Top-tier sound for mid-tier price

By Reomero

Pros: Highly detailed, neutral, goes well with whatever you throw at it

Cons: Can be sibilant (requires 100+ hours of burn in), springy cable, unhelpful strain reliefs.

These are amazing IEMs for the price. It is a balanced IEM and isnt lacking across the spectrum. They can handle pretty much every genre you put through these. The bass on these is excellent, it rumbles down deep, while being very quick and tight. But the main thing which I love about the bass on these is the 'weight'. When the track calls for it these really do move a whole lot of air and slam it against your ear drums. As for the midrage, I would say it is neutral, but on some tracks the mids are somewhat warm. With that said.. I'm not sure if the mids are actually warm, or the IEM is just neutral and reproducing warm mids... The vocals on these are amazing as well. It is very...

Yes, I Have Finally Reviewed It ;)

Here is a link to my review:   http://www.head-fi.org/t/617169/review-vsonic-gr07-yes-i-have-finally-reviewed-it#post_8507628   Here is my summary from that:     Overall What we have here is for £115 a great IEM and a real contender in the price range. It offers a great neutral dynamic signature with mid-bass no BA IEM will be able to replicate but that being said BA IEMs do things that the GR07 can not. If you want neutral with good mid-bass slam then for £115 this would be the obvious choice in my opinion but if that is not your priority then do not right out the Rock-IT R-50 and the Brainwavs B2 from the scram and I am sure there others that would...

By tamleo

Pros: Wonderful bass, super transparent, good and accurate soundstage and detailed, adjustable-angle nozzle, couldnt be better build and p/p

Cons: harsh treble, lack of the hight-mids, a little uncomfortable to long-term wear(angular shape) , a little boring

Update on my 2nd time purchasing the GR07 in March 2013.. ...more about the GR07: warm mids IMHO: Sound: 8/10 (compared to the best iems i have ever had was W4 and Ex1000 10/10) p/p: 10/10

A Great IEM

Posted
By Cotnijoe

Pros: Great overall sound, HUGE bang for the buck, nice looking IEM, works well with most set ups

Cons: can be difficult to get an proper insertion (isolation)

For the price somewhere between $150.00 and $180.00 USD, there really isn't many other competition for the price. They really get the job done well. Can get a little stale in sound sometimes but that's really a rare case. These really are great!

great iems

Posted
By zachchen1996

Pros: not fatiguing at all, sounds great with just about anything, very very relaxing iems

Cons: dont like how you are supposed to wear the wire up and around the ear, and if you wear it straight down its kind of a weird fit.

just wonderful little iems. wish the isolation was a little better, not bad though, just nitpicking. The microphonics are unacceptable, just a light tap on the cable and i can hear it, annoying as crap, but definitely not a deal breaker.

REVIEW: VSonic GR07

Posted
By ItsMeHere

Pros: Great bang for the buck value, balanced sound-signature, very wide sound-stage, good building quality, a lot of included accessories.

Cons: The isolation is only average.

  Prior to the review, I would like to thank VSonic for the review sample.   VSonic is a Chinese IEM company. For years, they've been one of the leading OEM manufacturers in the world, manufacturing for some of the leading audio companies in the world. A few years ago, VSonic had started to develop IEMs to be sold under their own brand name. The flagship, the then called "R07" was developed for more than three years. Today, after its name had been changed to "GR07", I'll be reviewing it.   Before we start, here the technical specification of the VSonic GR07: Driver Type: 11mm CCAW Dynamic w/ Multi-layers Bio-cellulose Frequency Response: 7Hz-30...
