I'm having a really hard time deciding between the 2

I have no way to test either as there are no dealers close by

I will soon have the Sony IER Z1R totl IEM and i am looking to pair them with something

so far this is the what i've concluded

All my music is in tidal

LG +Ve
- Significantly cheaper
- Functions as a back up phone
- faster and smoother OS and Tidal offline support
- LDAC and Aptx HD support
- MQA support (not sure if the A&K has this yet)

LG -Ve
- Less power output
- ? Sound quality is slightly less


A&K +Ve
- Balanced output
- Higher Power output
- ? Better Dac

A&K -ve
- double the price of the LG
- EQ is apparently subpar
- ? improvement in sound quality only minute

In common
- similar battery life
- similar screen size
- similar use case (playnig video's etc)

Any input would be greatly appreciated

I had the se100 and absolutley loved it, so much I sold it and got the 1000m, which I sold because it was too delicate. I'm planning on getting the se100 again, or maybe the Sony 1a, which I haven't heard yet. But I loved the se100...

How would you describe the sound?

vivid, smooth, holographic, detailed. air between the notes, layered sound with great bass detailed mids, great vocals and extended highs...
