What is peoples biggest disappointment this year in audio?
Can be IEM, earbud, accessories or just a brand. Would be fun to see, it's easy to have high hopes and then your expectations gets destroyed. Got a few here, most come from ergonomic standpoint
Had two NiceHCK cables with such bad ergonomics they are practically unusable. And 2 faulty ones also from NiceHCK.
Oh, this is an easy one. I'm generally easy to please, and I haven't gotten very many sets this year. Winners have been the Etymotic ERX and the Truthear Zero Project RED.
The obvious loser is the KZ PR2 v2. I had to put in so much work testing it with sources, and especially, tip-rolling, to get it to sound good. And I didn't care for the fit. Others may have that part fine. It was only $30 out of pocket, but still, a disappointing result, no doubt.
