Hi..
So i don't like wires at all and love bluetooth .
my #1 priority is sound quality and #2 is power(get loud)

.my options are:
1-bluetooth adapters like fiio btr5,3 etc
i tried shanling up2 with blon bl03 and liked the sound and power..but looking for more convenience if possible.

2-bluetooth cable
thinking about sony muc-m2bt1 neckband , but don't know anything about it's driving power nor quality
or waiting for Shanling MW200.on paper its really impressive
don't know any other option better than these 2
this option is better than #1 if SQ and power be the same

3-TWS adapter
thinking about fiio utws1
it's really cool..but unsure about SQ and driving my iems


4- TWS
best option with big IF
is there any good pair with SQ like blon 03 or tin hifi t4
i really like my iems..but can't stand those cables

is tws really worth it?especially when there are options like tws adapter or even neckband cable?
which one is better...high end tws vs one of those BT adapters with good iems
any advise?

thank you

1. Fiio Btr5 or radsone ES100. Not truly wireless tho.


2. Meh. Not a fan of them.


3. Utws1 is a good option, turns your current iems into a TWS.

If you don't mind controlling volume with your phone or device, the TRN BT20S is the same thing. (Trn makes the utws1 for fiio).

My BT20S gets plenty loud, drives my 150ohm earbuds with no issues and I'm not even listening past 40-50% volume level.


4. Lots of good options out there, depending on what sound signature you want.

Based on sound quality and detail retrieval the Nuarl N6 pro may be good. (Haven't personally heard, yet).

If you want good bass and overall sound maybe the Liberty 2 Pro or Mavin Air-XR. (Haven't personally heard the L2P yet, I own multiple Air-XR).

Neutral tuned buds maybe the Samsung Galaxy Buds+, they're reportedly pretty neutral. (Haven't heard these personally either.)


Those are some of the mid-range price options with feedback. There are also cheaper ones.

Lots of info here:

1. Works, probably the most robust solution but also the least convenient (still have a big dongle hanging off).
2. I have the MUC-M2BT1. It's ridiculously expensive for what it is, but it delivers: sufficient power for every single IEM I own, and zero hiss/noise to boot. However, still a cable.
3. I have tried the Fostex TM2 as an adapter. Similar to the MUC-M2BT1 in performance, but range is finicky and battery life is short. Not to mention, looks like a hearing aid.
4. That also works.

Only pick 1-3 if you already have a wired IEM that you love and what to keep: otherwise, pick option 4.

Maybe check to Noble Audio Falcon. Brought recently and sound better than my Athe40 and on all devices required less volume. Was staff pick at audio shop over the senheisser momentum. Good battery life too
