Some fantastic opinions I agree with wholeheartedly here.

@baskingshark, I definitely agree that low technical performance is unacceptable in the mid-range price bracket. Most reviewers are quite critical of the Yume's technical performance, and very rightly so.

I have to note however that the Yume's technical performance is not bad at all, a cramped stage and mushy transient impact perhaps and generally just not as much clarity as something like my Audiosense DT300 at the same price but not bad, especially with it's decently holographic imaging, and a presentation actually strays from the usual pill-shape stage.

Another thing that I have to say is that I slightly modded my Yume as soon as I got it, because my experience with the nozzle filter told me that it would cramp the stage. (see BQEYZ Summer, and nymphomaniac/Erik Ikomori/NBBA on that iirc). I didin't bother to compare it to stock but I believe that combined with non-stock wide bore tips helped my technical impressions of it. (do note my rating scale is relative to price as well, though somewhat arbitrarily).

I think that this was maybe something glossed over by reviewers because most of the Yume's reviewers got to do so via a reviewer tour, and of course modding wouldn't be permissible, though that is assuming my mod made a difference.

I would love to see SeeAudio release a retuned version of the Yume with improved bass performance (not quantity, IMHO) and better technicalities. A crinacle ~B technical score Yume would be something I'd be willing to pay more for, for sure.

Either way, like I noted in my review, I think the midrange tuning quality, and the relatively inoffensive performance everywhere else gives this its own niche, even if I would recommend another IEM above it. (Again, see Audiosense DT300/600 )

SeeAudio Yume 2022 with S- in tonality, B in technicality, and in the same price bracket?..
My wallet... she may not last

I just found out that TKZK is a sister company of another popular audio company, TIN HIFI. I think they are aiming on the budget realm.

SeeAudio seems to be making all the right decisions lately, especially listening to the community. The review tour for the bravery hasn't quite caught up to me yet but I've heard that thing has actually good technicalities despite leaning tonally warm.

I‘m still in the process of writing my review on it (and choosing what picture to use xD) but I simply love the Bravery and could not recc it enough. It will be my standard recommendation for the sub 300$ bracket and I honestly would take it over the Blessing 2 (Dusk) any day. Incredibly well done, balanced tuning and while the technicalities are not top tier they certainly are much better than the Yumes and come very close to the B2 while having much better coherency.

It also complements my Variations really well, so both share the spot as being my daily drivers

A rep from TKZK just send it to me. It is still not available in aliEx. But what I know that this will cost around US$39-40

That FR curve is quite similar to that on the box of the Aiderlot M5 (5 Knowles BA), I wonder if they sound similar?

Thank you for the impressions.

I am just waiting the Bravery to be a nice sale. Maybe Black Friday? If someone has connections with SeeAudio and can get me a voucher code so I can get the Bravery at the pre-order price, $249, or better , I am in.

I got an opportunity to review Xenns UP. Here is my first review and my take on it.

Hope you enjoy the reading as much as I enjoyed doing it.

The sad part is that the graph for GS Audio's cheapest set looks more sensible than the one for the Ceres.

Same 1+1 driver configuration at less than half the price with a graph that has a reasonably attractive curve that makes sense. Oof, Shozy has some real work to do.

So the GD3A is their cheapest set?

Nope, the GD2, which is the set from that graph, costs $73+S&H, which puts it as their cheapest set.

These set sounds bright, U-shape tuning in my ears.

if i had T-force Yuan Li final ver. Want upgrade micro details in treble area, and more airy and sparkle, which is better Hana 2021 or Kato?​

which is better 3d imaging presentation and holographic effect, Hana 2021 or Kato?​

It is that time of year again in the US. Spooky time! Saw these which would work very nicely....
