Match of the year?

This is definitely one of the most anticipated match of the year, YanYin Canon II vs AFUL Performance 8. They are quite a match with their respective capabilities, good build quality, premium inclusions and a well-balanced and smoother sound quality. They indeed trading blows on one another.
This is the content I needed, The Canon II is the most expensive set I have so I have a ton of bias pushing me to enjoy the sound, but the Aful Performers were one of the other sets I was tossing around. I'd love to hear more about the similarities and differences between them to know if I should try and snag one down the road or be happy with what I've got. (I'm no longer feeling an urge to upgrade, I might snag a set on a killer sale but I think I'm mostly set now.)

Hisenior Okavango

Okavango is just pure fun, it delivers a joyful experience where your feet will start tapping to your music.
Not the most resolving set out there, but this was never what they tried to make here.
Bass is lush and full, mids are full and forward and treble is present while not tiresome.

Feel free to read it if its of any interest, cheers.

Just got my NiceHCK IEM case and I am VERY happy. I don’t have any of the high end cases others do but for me and the $36 I paid for it, incredible quality. Unless your cables are huuuuge you could double up IEMs per spot
I got the 9 compartment version and it's a bit larger than I thought it would be.
They are well made and look the part, IMHO.
For sure better than the watch display cases my other IEMs are in.

I think this picture is floating around. But what do you guys think of the Cantor? Team white or yellow? I love the idea of custom faceplates. Reminds me of the custom Thieaudio faceplaces in a way but with more colors in some cases.

Van Gogh cut his own ear off. So not the best audiophile association...
