The first Amazon review from me. Dsnuts got another woodie!
As hobbiests and enthusiasts alike all look for that elusive sound that will scratch that itch for the perfect sound. Sometimes it is the smaller companies ran by someone that clearly knows their sound that will come out with something so good to say I am surprised by the sound of the Rain2 is a bit of an understatement..
For the price of these earphones. These are some of the best tuned, balanced and engaging sounds I have heard from a phone at this price point.
When properly sourced these earphones easily hang with the likes of a CKR9, Sony XBA-H3, CKR10 and even the FX850. The FX850 is perhaps the worlds best wood earphones and to me the Rain2s are a clear second. Considering the FX850 cost 3 times the cost of one of these. That makes the Rain2 a clear value leader in sound. Some will actually prefer these over the phones I mentioned here including the FX850. These are that good.
The bold, smooth, full, fluid sound of these earphones engage and excite the core reason why we are in the hobby. A meticulous sound tuning that incorporates clear up front vocals and instruments that has great reach in both depth and width. Treble extension and shimmer bring a timbre to the sound that highlight your favorite tune with exacting detail. A smooth forward mid section that encompasses the meat of your favorite tune in full reaching detail. Bass with a solid level of quantity that brings the impact and a very solid quality that provides the rumble.These earphones sound absolutely complete and natural from one end of the spectrum to the other with a level of refinement that is not common at this price point and missing in a lot of earphones twice the cost. If sound engagement is how one gauges an earphone. These are clear winners. These earphones are why dynamics tuned right are still some of the best in the world.
Easily a 5 star earphone.
