The Origin is a beauty in every single aspect. I think it's a proper replacement for the Oxygen and also, an early contender for IEM of the year.

Please do not apologize for having a point of view

It makes no sense

The materials are amazing too and that cable was simply astounding, personally.

Congratulations, you acquired the underground best IEM of 2023. This is the SW2 though. The SM2, whilst pretty good, is not as great as this is.

So disappointed... I am tired of the planarmyc garbage products

I have all of those except the Dolce and the Zero 2 is on the way. It's probably a wise decision to stay clear, your wallet will thank you.

I will be real, if you can catch it during one of the sales events, it's absolutely worth it. Hell, I'd buy it full price again with no issues. If you want a beater that's inexpensive, get either the OG 7hz Zero or the Truthear Hola. If you want something a bit more refined that will last you a...

I have both the SSR and SSP. The SSR is okay, not terrible but maybe a bit outdated by this point. It's also a good pick for treble-heads. However, I do find that the SSP holds up quite a bit better. I still bring it out from time to time and I even purchased a second unit for posterity when and...

The original Zero was also a Crinacle collab, he just kept it low-key until months later after it was released. Out of all the beater IEMs I have, the original Zero definitely gets the most use from me, so I'm pretty much locked in to get the sequel.

Sure do: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DEXRj5d

I am gonna get them as they also caught my attention, thanks for letting me know your thoughts for the beryllium DD, that builds the anticipation even more!

I haven't seen much in regards to the Angelears Abyssal posted on the forum yet: So, I took the plunge and snagged myself a unit from the digital wilds of Aliexpress. I have seen some praise around the internet for this cable, but not a lot of it is in English. Mainly Japanese videos (I...

I agree fully with your review, the Tanchjim Kara is amazing and I'm glad it's finally getting some love.

I though you did well, actually. Their tuning is quite different from the BL-03 and it's one of the sleeper hits at that price range imo.

Agreed, very musical and fun

As it was mentioned to you, the source was just a few posts back. Didn't think you needed to have it cited again.

The icon from the original generation is being reported as a terrible sequel, that's why

This is a terrible start though

Great reviews without getting into the cable war!

Don't believe your deceiving eyes

I am guilty of buying it for exactly that reason and my impression was exactly like yours. Same applies to the original Moondrop Chu. Though I can say nicer things about the Jiu and the Chu II.

I'm afraid that, if you don't want the battery dying quickly and interrupting your activities, it's a no-go.

I have both. As much as I love Moondrop, you're better off with the Soundpeats, the battery life of the Space Travel is laughable, you're gonna get 3 to 4 hours. Space Travel is mostly an aesthetics purchase.

Grey plates inside the resin? Yes, that is very much an S8 "inspired" design. I don't mind that though, even as an S8 owner. Let's see what KBear can offer and at which price point!
