Got to try out Aful Performer 5 roughly a year ago, and it was easily one of the best midrange and vocal performance that I've tried under $300 price range.
That’s acceptable I believeAkros is highly praises constructive criticism, his fans are kinda pathetic sometimes.
Top IEMs under $300?? AFUL P5+2, ZiiGaat Estrella, and DUNU x Gizaudio DaVinci come right into my mind as recent launches. All three are great performers, and after spending 15 days with them, I am here with a comparison video.
Remind you, all three of these are fantastic performers for the asking price, they offer an amazing listening experience with DUNU excelling in providing a sweet, warm sound, Performer 5+2 promising a well-balanced three-frequency response, and the ZiiGaat Estrella delivering some solid vocals. So which one among these is your favorite??
Thank You
I haven't seen or heard the other two in real life, so, yeah, P7 is my favourite![]()

I have no doubt that if you end up falling hard for the Cantor, I'll end up following suit.For a first iem, I can't think of a better recco. And it plays higher than that price range too. I don't find myself yanking it off and trying to get to P8 etc. Quite solid.
@Hypops would agree. I got it on his recco. Happy purchase.
I prefer 4.4. Physically stronger connector, plus most portable gears bias toward 4.4 anyway, so it's a waste to go 3.5, IMHO. If both outputs sound the same on your DAC, oh well, at least you have a beefy jack. If 4.4mm sounds better, you win. 3.5mm is pretty much lose-lose in this case.Meanwhile, my preferred store has stocked up Cantor starrynight.
Oh ho ... Decision time today.
P.S: @o0genesis0o 3.5 better or 4.4?
That Mojo 2 is like a skin, adapts any iem/HP you plug with it. I miss mine, but I am happy with the Earmen Angel.Testing performer 5+2. I am really impressed by it. It is a serious contender in the mid-fi segment. Pairs very well with mojo 2.
