Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

Hey all, Wow at the amount of posts since i was last in this thread. Still catching up. I hit the review jackpot on Saturday and accepted offers to review the shure Aonic 215, reallly just hoping the adapter is a good one and then will find a pair of iems to use with it, never been a fan of the 215 sound. But then also the Beoplay E8 Sport. Anyone heard the Aonic215 since they were re-released, or the E8 Sport? i've never listened to anything from b&O so i'm intrigued.

Hey this the true wireless thread. I see a wire there! :) Why did Etymotic put a car battery on their BT cable?? Might need more than those two clips to hold it up. Not curious for many reasons. Kinda ugly, huge battery it seems, their design makes it good for their earphones but the angle coming out is bad for many others, $170 is pricey, 8 hour battery is very average.

Thanks for your impressions man. These are looking like a big disappointment for the price. Not a fan of that design at all either.
Sorry, man. I was in a hurry when I was writing and just did a search on the forum. That's too bad, the design is pretty cool. The ear fun free sounds really good, I have two pair, but for me the design just doesn't work with my .....what's the term the cool kids say? "morphology". thanks for saving me $70 :grin:

I have just pre-ordered the Jabra 85Ts, hoping they build on the 75Ts which I was very impressed with, but not quite to the extent of L2P which has so far (for me) seen off all competition to date.

Probably bassy being about DJ Daruma and Rave Yellow and Chill Purple and all that but they look pretty good...

so based on the consensus here, it seems like the Anker Sound Core Liberty Pros are the best sounding TWS at any price range at the moment? I assume that means they are also better sounding than the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 and all the Master Dynamic buds as well?

There is no consensus here on what's best sounding. To assume as much is simply wrong.

For anyone interested, here's my top 10 ranking of TWS based on sound quality alone. Just my opinion out of those that I've tried :)

1. Nuarl N6 Pro
2. Lypertek TEVI
3. Sony WF 1000xm3
4. Sennheiser Momentum TW2
5. Soundcore Liberty 2 Pro
6. Master & Dynamic MW07+
7. Galaxy Buds+
8. FiiL T1X
9. Airpods Pro
10. Sabbat E12 Ultra

Also, here some of the reviews I've done so far on head-fi, though they might not have aged very well lol. I've since gone down the rabbit hole of high end wired IEMs and have come away with different opinions of many of the TWS I tried in the past. So for those who look at the reviews, keep in mind that this ranking constitutes my more up to date feelings. Still, the reviews might be helpful for those who want to know what some of these earbuds sound like. Last thing, if you want to see my review of the Lypertek TEVI, it's currently the first review that comes up on Amazon with the title "One of the best":

TMa6, I like what you did there....very helpful. In fact, it made me think of an idea that could be very useful for everyone since this Thread is about 1780 pages deep. I think it might be interesting and fun if others posted their top 5 or so favorite earbuds just to get an idea how varied we may or may not be

what do you guys think?

No this is not correct. It might be the consensus pick at the sub 150 price point but as for best overall, no I don't think so. It sounds great for the money.

I haven't used my Tevi's in a while, but I'm trying them right now with the Xelastec tips and they are comfy and sound great with no EQ whatsoever. My Galaxy Beans and WF1000xm3 both need a decent amount of EQ for me to enjoy them, but the Tevi's just sound great as is.

Haven't heard everything on this list but the ones I've heard would be in the same order 1, 2, 3, 7. N6P are the best I've heard with the Tevi's a close second.

Curious, I noticed you had the Nuarl N6 Pro on the top of your list as best sounding earbuds and on your list further down you have the Fiil T1X listed too.....Have you tried either the Fiil T1XS or the Fiil TI Pro?.....I read on that Scarbir link that was shared as it was one of the top sounding earbuds, I was wondering how you feel about them?
