That would make sense. I guess the zs6 are not a thing for treble-sensitive ears. I just hope it wont be the case with the svaras.
Sort of, but treble sensitivity can mean a whole variety of different things, and doesn't seem to necessarily correlate well with being bothered by a Beyer peak like elevation :shrug:

Still, might be worth your while to give them a chance with a little adjustment from burn in, brain burn in, tip rolling, EQ, impedance adapters, etc... at least some people seem to be able to cross the fence, as it were.

Guys I have really tiny ears and need help choosing a good Chinese IEM.

I used to own the joyroom e107 and those felt amazing with the smallest stock ear pads, so I tried out different joyrooms and they were all way too big for my tiny ears.

I'm not really interested in the hybrids because I like ska and rock music.

@ Sniper 77
The TFZ King is/was around 70 USD

That was too much for my goal now, I wanted travel earbuds that won't cost me more then 20 USD ...but with decent sound.

At home i also have a BEyerdyanmic T51i on ear headphone (330 USD official price; i paid around 240 USD on a promo for them) if i want to have a real good sound :) (unfortunately it is in for repair under warranty, so i m waiting for the return and in the mean time i bought cheap chinese stuff to see how they fare)

Thanks for the suggestion though,

bought best possible cheapest iems with best possible discount like bought Zircon for just $3.8, Memt x5 for just $9 and KR49 for mere $5 with new user $4 coupon from 3 different Emails :D
and yeah with free registered shippings for all of them :D

I made three different orders on mine on aliexpress, so the total of each package never exceeded 22 EUro's (the max. amount you can import from CHINA/ USA to Europe without custom or VAT costs)

But smart idea of using different emails to get free 'new customer coupon' from the alixpress ... i ll remember that trick for the next sales :)

Compared to the T2, do you find ZS6 brighter on the highs?
the T2 is not as bright as the ZX6 by a long way, I find them most pleasant

Hello again Panda, are the svara reds any brighter than the T2 & ZS6?
Thanks again. Your comments throughout this thread during my research have been invaluable!

I would say both Svara red and TinAudio T2 have perfect treble for my ears and the ZS6 is much more of a treble monster that I like at times

Thanks brotha, on my first listen fresh out of the box on the ZS6, i really find the highs harsh for my liking, EQ'd them down at -6 db and -4 db at 8 Khz and 10 Khz respectively which really helped a lot, but decided to not use the EQ after a week and put some foam around the BAs, well they sounded quite better, but after 2 weeks of burn in time, they sound amazing now LOL, i just hope the T2 would be just as good as the ZS6s if not better for my liking haha

Fantastic. I cannot wait for my reds to arrive!
I also ordered a spinfit eartip and a round t400 knockoff to pair with the Svaras, incase I wont like the stock tips. Will post my results once they're here.
