At least the FR is somewhat accurate

I am astounded at what CCA has done with 8 drivers in one shell at this price. We’ve come a long way from the Ultimate Ears TF10 Black Friday $100 deal 10 years ago. Good Stuff . Edit: also, if one ever had the pleasure of installing the TF10 torture devices in your ears, you would not complain about any of the new stuff
Maybe CCA isn't sending him big enough kickbacksI have just seen the review of the CA16 at the phonograph.net: https://www.thephonograph.net/cca-ca16-review/
I disagree with everything! What is going on?
For me, the poor ergonomics really inhibited my enjoyment of the TF10. They especially require a solid seal for the bass to pop and just moving my jaw would break the seal. And if I could get a solid seal, and I tried every trick in the book, pain would ensue in less than 15 minutes. So when I attained a solid seal, it never lasts long enough to the enjoy the admittedly good sound they can provide. Maybe if I invested in a different cable for them things would be different, but none of the dozen 2 pin cables I have fit them, and they feel so delicate I feel like they will crumble if I squeeze them too hard. Today’s custom type over ear fit works very well for me, so even budget chi-fi provides more enjoyment than the TF10. And considering the CA16, they are the best that I have in the chi-fi offerings, both in sound and fit, with a detailed yet relaxing sound that I can listen to all day and all night, I think they are great, so there really is no contest.That's funny - I've been using the TF10's since that deal 10 years ago! (Now with a Balanced cable - I never realized how uncomfortable the stock one was).
I have the CA16's on order, as well as a few other IEM's. How would you say the CA16 compares to the classic TF10?
Anyone tried KZ Z1 (bluetooth) and able to recommend wired IEM that have the similar sounds? I love KZ Z1 but the battery is very bad, barely even reached 2 hours.
I tried CCA CA16 because I like the KZ Z1 shell, but the sounds is completely different. Z1 is more fuller and CA16 is more detailed.
Any suggestion would be nice. Thanks
They are one of the worst sites out there if you want to get accurate information...
I dont even want to give them more "clicks" either...their so called "review-site" is just a marketing site nothing more. Bunch of affiliate links and coupon codes. DisgustingAgreed. Sometimes I use their site for the graphs, comparing earphone graphs on their site. Their text is not so useful.
Anyone with a caliper able to take height & width measurements of the CA16 & zsn/zsn pro/c10 shell?
I've only hesitating on purchase as that size shell barely fit my ears.

I also took a look at the S2 TWS, it uses a similar arrangement of dynamic with the BA right next to it, instead of in the nozzle. Perhaps they are finally learning lol.
Yours look like they need to be rotated a bit. Per your photo, if the shell was rotated counterclockwise about 30 degrees they might fit even better.
Wish I could comfortably. That rotation is due to my ear canal angle. The back of the shell was resting against my anti-helix.
