BQEYZ in-ear monitors Impressions Thread

Ok, my Spring1 arrived last night and I can say unequivocally, this is the best BQEYZ to date by a very wide margin. Detail, stage, and dynamics are on another level compared to previous models. Seems to follow Harman pretty closely to boot.


I'll be very interested to hear how it stacks up to the KB100!

Also, rated at 43ohms...looks like they'll be power hungry like the other popular triple hybrid with piezo.

Do you have uncompensated FR? Thanks

Yes they will be power hungry as piezo drivers need power juice to wake them up

It stacks up like this according to FR

That is straight off the machine - no anything applied

What?? are they that bassy? or need power juice to wake up the piezo?

Hmmm, I don’t see anything (at least not with my phone). I’ll check with my laptop later.

Tests run back to back with no changes to settings or adjustment to volume made.

Graph looks good. Like a KB100 with a bit more low end grunt.

Dang, I don’t need any more earphones, but Spring 1 is tempting.

I’ll wait for your full review before deciding, and perhaps the price will come down to $90-$100 for 11.11

its more of the same with better bass .. I see from the graph but it looks very smooth

Not sure that is a fair assessment as it has great detail compared to the KB100 which is one thing the FR simply cant show you.

other technicalities like soundstage and imaging?

are they more mid bass bleed than KB100?

Looks great! How is the timbre on the Spring1? Is it natural sounding? Or is it cold? Or however you might want to describe it? Do acoustic instruments sound accurate?
