I have all three and I would rec the CCA C10, TRN IM1 is V shaped with huge bass, TRN V80 is not as natural as CCA C10

Your user always make me hungry


But in all seriousness here, have you experience TFZ T2 Galaxy? If so, do you pick CCA 10 over it? The gold TFZ looks bling bling

I only have TFZ Exclusive 5

I only have TFZ Exclusive 5

That one has a DD (9mm vs 12mm on the T2) as well. How does it match up to your CCA 10? Is TFZ quality "up to snuff" *Tyll's voice *

 

[HungryPanda]

I like it very much, It is more V shaped than the CCA C10. I like the small bean shape of the Exclusive 5 though

Hi, sorry to be that guy, but can anyone compare the TRN v80 (which I have), TRN IM1, and CCA C10? I'm looking for a neutral+natural sound signature with a big soundstage, all round value and detail.

You're not going to get neutral from CCA C10, just more of a balanced sound signature with big surround soundstage that's very hard to beat! But better yet, for a neutral + natural sound signature and around the same price as the C10 you should really look into the ****.

Best balanced + lively I've heard up to date: C10

Best neutral + natural I've heard up to date: ****

I'm curious how you (and others?) would differentiate between balanced and neutral? I would regard them as somewhat of a similar thing, a relatively flat frequency response.

Both the CC10 and **** interest me i must say, i like the ZSN and never had a piezo-driven IEM. The IM1 intrigues me as well. All three are on my list of 'might purchase in the future / keep an eye on'.

@HungryPanda any comparison between the CC10, IM1 and BQ3? I imagine the IM1 and BQ3 would be somewhat similar though I haven't exactly read up on the IM1 much.

Neutral means neither warm or cold. No color at all.
Balanced just means bass to mids to highs are all somewhat linear sounding. No aspects of the frequency are overpowering any others.

At least that's how I always viewed it.

In that sense warm means a focus on lower frequencies and cold (bright) a focus on the higher frequencies, whereas balanced means no emphasis on any frequency (=neutral?). Thats how I would interpret it anyway

@dodonut the TRM IM1 has even more bass than the BQYEZ BQ3 and has also more treble. The CCA C10 is just a more lively and better sounding ZSN to me

Given that IM1 and CCA c10 are practically priced the same now on Ali, which one is better?
I'd assume that IM1 has an upper hand since it's just 1BA+1DD, theoretically they should outperform C10'S 4BA+1DD, because Quality>Quantity.

 

[HungryPanda]

If you want a steep V-shaped earphone the TRN IM1 is the one and as much as I like them I prefer the CCA C10

I hadn't seen the ****. I've had very bad experiences with the EN900 (hot trash) but I might try S3nf r again.
Which would you say has better value overall, and a bigger soundstage? Which is warmer? I know the overall value question is hard to answer.
Thanks!

I just received my TRN BT20. I couldn't get it to pair with my phone yet as the intructions are just atrocious. Before getting this to work, I want to ask about a weird issue I ran into.

I cannot click the multifunction button (MFB) on the left unit. It is non-clickable & initially I thought it is defective. Then I realized that this button can be clicked only if the micro-usb charging cover is open. As soon as this cover is closed, the button becomes unclickable. I never saw anything like this before! There is no similar issue with the button on the right ear piece.

So, did I get a defective unit or is this issue common with other TRN BT20s too?

I've heard if the usb is shoved in too hard it can push the board around inside. Maybe on removal it dragged yours down? Try inserting the cable and wiggling it out again.

Here's the instructions if yours was missing:
