Quick impressions of the Airpods Pro. I'm coming from the BeatsX, which I like, but the sound quality is mediocre. I have had other wired IEMs by Dunu, and CIEMs. The Pros are definitely better than the BeatsX, with good bass and a decent amount of detail. Not as good as the IEMs I'm used to...

Hi everyone,   What is the latest best successor to the Piston 2.1? Something that's durable, with good bass and blocks out ambient noise? Is there anything better these days below $100?   Thanks!

Let me add a bit of perspective here.   Over the years, I've followed many sagas here on HF, where there was an initial hype train that ended up being debunked, for instance the whole Aurisonics, Tpeos, Altone lineups, Shure 846, Ditas, IE800 and many others. After the initial shine wore off...

Best soundstage? Tralucent 1plus2.

  I'm using bass rings on my DN2000J and I get less flex and pressure with my spinfits than my spiral dots. Not sure why though.

I really recommend burning them in for 100 hours before judging the treble. Also for those using the bass rings, I recommend no spacers and spinfit tips instead of the spiral dots. The treble is not too aggressive and the soundstage is great.

I think these sound great, I'm using the bass rings, JVC spiraldots, and no spacer rings.

CTC has a deal for $299 + a pair of spinfits.

  Thanks Brooko. Your comparison is very helpful. Have you heard the 1plus2 with gold/silver? Which Dunu has a similar signature?   One issue I had with the DN1000 is the esssssss sound in female vocals. In that respect which one/ones would be better? I'm inclined to go with the DN2000J, but...

  Thank you!

Brooko, fantastic review. I have 2 questions:   1) if you take the DN2000J and boost the bass a bit, how does it sound?   2) which genres of music would you say each of the 3 is most suited for?   I've had the DN1000 and loved the bass, but the midrange wasn't clear nor fast. I'm inclined...

Hi Bass Club,   I'm currently using the Xiaomi Piston 2.1 IEM as a tough everyday phone. On the other end I have a pair of Tralucent 1plus2 for quality listening. I'm looking for something in between that I can use on a daily basis for to replace my Xiaomi. It should be fairly durable, cable...

  Thanks for sharing. Looks like my medium is in between a medium and small. Since the Spinfits seem to go deeper into the ear, do people generally go for the smaller size if they're between sizes? thx

Bump.   Right now I'm considering the DN2000J but it has less bass and still has a treble peak.   Any others I should look at?   Thx!

How do you guys decide on sizing? I'll be trying these out on Tralucent 1plus2, Dunu DN2000 and Xiaomi Piston 2.1.   I'm usually a Medium. Do these run small or large, and should I order 2 different sizes just in case?   thx
