Hate to hear that, must be really frustrating. You are aware these are assembled by one guy in war torn Ukraine.

Which of those mentioned appeals to you the most and why? Did you audition their Rosefinch bass monster? (Akros reviewed it as a budget Legato with a 450 filter mod).

I have the Canpur Joyfull 1&1 IEM, (1 E-audio BA +1DD that was used in HZsound Heartmirror)), got it on super sale for $30 delivered, normally $158. Although it may not be worth original price I really like them. It's the best sounding IEM I currently own, I do have 4 incoming to compare to...

Does anyone have experience with both FiiO UTWS3 and FiiO UTWS5? Is there a significant sound quality, driving power and functionality difference between them?

Also have a KZ PR2 V1 incoming and KBear Rosefinch, (bring on da bass). Didn't enjoy the Wu Zetian to much, will be interesting to see what the PR2 V1 has to offer at $35. Will compare all to EA500, it's going to take some time though.

I ordered EA500's too. Prime Day sale for $63, along with TRN ST5's for $40. Going to compare them, a special full experience high quality single DD vs 1 DD/4 BA hybrid smack down. LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!

What is it called & where can I get-it? 😏 spoken like: Who is your Daddy & what does he do? (in Arnold Schwarzenegger accent)

Take a look at Fiil t1xs and t1 pro, not audiophile level, walking about, exercising I enjoy the t1xs, the t1 pro is smaller and more neutral than the bass leaning t1xs. There is an app that has equalizing options, and other features.

You have yourself a nice collection. P8 I believe refers to Aful performer 8. I had the Tangzu Wu Zetian, returned it, didn't out perform a hybrid 1 DD 1 BA set I have. You enjoy FH3 more than Variations?

How about the Simgot EA500, single DD $79. I don't know what IEM competes to it's level of vocals at $150. EDIT: Juzear 41T 1DD+4BA Hybrid $163.99

Please let us know if it improves on HBB's Kahn and Crin's Zero Blue and Red, and of course any other dual DD's you've met up with. Is pricing out? EDIT (found it $79, Linsoul "Earn a special super-early bird discount code with your $1.00 reservation card!get $10 off?, so $69)

Paul Wasabii take, not so fast grasshopper, EA500 is worth the extra green. EA200 driver is good, just isn't as "special" as EA500 driver, which delivers the rest of the experience. Food for thought.

Oooooooooo rubbing hands together, anticipating your report

@baskingshark observed "Simgot EW200 graphs very similarly to the Tanchjim Oxygen." Does it sound like it? 95%? yes no fingers crossed. Do we have a $40 budget version of a $279 set or a $79 set?

LOL! I had a WOW moment with the controversial Verum One MKII planar open-back headphones, they continue to impress. I can't justify, for myself, spending kilo bucks on an IEM or headphone.

I've had the Wu Zetian for just over a week, burned in for 100+hrs, (not in ear). Chain: Amazon Music HD/UHD via Windows laptop, JDS Atom stack, via USB. Stock white silicon tips, stock 3.5mm cable. Plan on returning them, they didn't WOW me. Am I missing something?

Any AS24 standard, (non-tunable), graphs posted? Paul Wasabii found his preferred settings were highest bass setting, mids and treble on intermediate setting. If that's how the non-tunable one is set, hmmm might be a buy. What will be the price?

@ToneDeafMonk liked them too.
