Nice review, I'm between this or the Nuarl N10 Plus ? any advice ? it seems that the N6 Pro 2 is newer an almost the same as the N10 Plus, also looking the SoundPeats H1 Premium. Do you have any recommendation? need something that sounds good and also double as a meeting set, the only think right now that make me gravity towards the Nuarl N10 plus is the multipoint and multipairing capability.... any suggestion will be nice.
Edit: Reviewing the details on the specs, the N6 Pro 2 looks better for me and the intended dual use (more playtime, I don't need ANC) I would love them to have multipoint but at least they can multipair, now is between the N6 Pro 2 and the H1 Premium.... the H1 premium is intriguing and after reading the review by @regancipher I was about to buy those until I read about the Nuarls. I think in performance / price ratio the H1 Premium wins but being this my first pair of TWS I don't care to spend more.

Hey thanks for the comment

Gotta keep answer short due to word limit + tendency to ramble

I recommend these over the N10 Plus. I got a set of the N10 Plus a few weeks after getting the Pro 2 and the Pro 2 is still on top. Looks like you have already decided on that though. I will say the N6 Pro 2 is a cleaner design and I think the sound is better too.

For the H1, I was also looking into them before discovering Nuarl. My main motivation for Soundpeats was the design with the H1 and Soundpeats True engine 3.

I didn't mention this in the review but you can use one bud of the N6 Pro 2 at a time. I am testing this to double-check that for you as I type and can certainly use left or right individually of the other if I leave the other in the case.

A few weeks of writing the above review my main infatuation with the Nuarls is the way it delivers sound in a way that doesn't feel like it is coming in through your ears. You hear it inside of your head.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply @SynaestheticA. I appreciate the confirmation on the sound quality, still haven't bought any TWS but it seems that right know the N6 Pro 2 and the H1 Premium are the only one (under $200 bucks) that have my attention, I was in some point going to go for the FA Evangelion edition (big fan of the series), but the N6 Pro 2 really looks interesting (I have read more on the type of tech they use, etc). The H1 Premium also looks promising and more for the price, I cant buy the two and test them out (I'm oversees in Latam). For now I have both on my list, I will comment back and maybe do a little review / impressions of any of them when I got them. Also thanks for checking up the single bud use!

@Tjdx Hey no worries. I've looked more into the Left-Right situation and see that it is more advanced on the N10, but I don't know how other than being able to select specific ones on Bluetooth if they are both out. Although selecting R gets both connected so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

As for the Final Evangelions, they are super cool. I almost bought those on a whim a day after getting the Nuarls just for the design. Looks like we have similar taste.

The shape of the FA didn't look it would fit securely in the ear though, a few Amazon reviews confirm this. As well as that some complaints on the quality of the plastic being brittle and cheap... Still they look so cool. and Sound quality seems fantastic.

Thanks again, @SynaestheticA for the research, I can live with just using either the L or R bud (would use them also for online meetings + music while commuting) regarding the secure fit If they stay safe while I commute or moving around is fine. I think I would go with the Nuarl N6 Pro 2. The FA EVA are just beautiful crafted and looks awesome for any EVA fan but I don't want something that I wouldn't take out too the street too much. I have some other wired IEMs and Headphones that I can use to compare when I get the Nuarl´s (Sennheiser, Fiio, Panasonic) can you compare the N6 Pro 2 with any wired IEM or Headphone? (I know isnt fair) also got the Bose QC 35 II. The pair that I currently use exclusive for work meetings are the Phaiser ARK BHS-790 that for the price at the moment (around 25 USD) was a steal.... But the use of cable is a PITA in work/office environment and after using better IEMs or headphones this sound like a toy, but for meetings they are decent.

I can compare them with the Beyer DT770 Pro and the Audio Technica MSR7b.

They are closest to the DT770 in most aspects. Very Neutral yet somehow energetic as well with a touch of warmth to them. Like an indoor fireplace that you're about 4 metres away from.

The AT's are a little faster and less warm. Their mids and bass are put more forward and are more energetic than the Beyer and the Nuarl. Maybe I even prefer the N6 sound over the AT, but I still love the AT for electronic music.

I still use over-ears above in-ears for long listening experiences at home. I mostly use TWS for running which might last 1.5 hours. With the N6 Pro 2 it is pretty close to bringing the DT770 with me on a run. Of course the sound experience is still different, with over-ears it is more obvious that the sound is coming from the cans, with the Nuarl it exists more in your head and wraps around a bit.

Now I'm more eager to get the Nuarls, but I have to wait a little bit (cashflow, like always), if they are that good even while running I can bet this would work very nice in a not that loud office environment or at home, and probably also while commuting. For me TWS are no a replacement for wired headphones, BT tech has come a long way and would continue to improve but I hate that everything now runs on batteries I cant stop thinking that in some point the battery will die and I would have a paper weight (let aside the pollution) but anyway the practicality is there for some scenarios, I would love that TWS could use a "standard" so you can replace the battery like one do with AA or 18650, etc. Thanks again for the feedback I would post back once I lay my hands on the N6 Pro 2, hopefully I can buy them at the end of the month. Now the only question remaining is what color to choose :speak_no_evil:

Fiio fw5 also focuses only on sound quality like this too and I found that you has both n6 pro 2 and fw5. Can you compare them? I'm quite curious about the sound signature and soundstage difference.

@JustBimBim Hola amigo.

Yes I have/had both. The Nuarl review was one of my favourite tws at the time.

I've heard a few more since and learnt more about sound.

The soundstage is about the same on both with the FW5 having better seperation and clarity. I do find the Nuarl more "musical" in that it feels more cohesive and "together". It is a darker sound signature though unlike the Fiio which is a brighter one.

Nuarl is more out of head and can drive louder due to the darker signature.

I'd probably say you'd be happy with either but choose what sound Sig you prefer and go with that :)

Thanks so much. I think fw5 has better seperation and seperation because of 2 BA.
But I'm surprised that nuarl can do the same soundstage when having a small dynamic driver only. I guess that hdss module does a good job.
