Yes, I have the Allure too, and that’s a perfect description. Cheers!Maybe KiiBOOM Allure? I have it, it’s got a soft timbre, balanced sound with a bit of bass. Doesn’t do much wrong but also not much wow factor. Decent set for the price range, overall sound quality is there.

Hmm, I knew it, IEMs world to you are like for girls' jewellery, make-up boxes, etc...
Cheers!
You dirty dog............how did you end up with the 7Hz Aurora so fast? Wait don't answer that...........just enjoy it! Cheers!The 7Hz Aurora is a 12 mm DD + 1 x 6 mm microplanar + 2 BA tribrid.
It has a very clean and transparent U-shaped signature, extremely balanced and all-rounded for most music genres.
A highlight is the tight, textured and fast bass. Sub-bass extends well. For Sting's Englishman In New York, the Aurora aces the fast double bass solo in the middle of the track. Usually this kind of bass quality is seen (or rather heard) in pricier models, so this is very appreciated.
Upper mids are forwards without being shouty. There's a 6/7 kHz dip in the treble which is something of a trade-secret used in TOTL tuning to decrease sibilance without overly damping resolution.
Technicalities are also very well-done, with an expansive stage and solid imaging and micro-detailing.
Unlike other very technical sets, the Aurora doesn't sound sterile and maintains a decent note weight. Good mix of technicalities and musicality, so it isn't a one trick pony per se. The keyword to describe the Aurora's signature would be "Grand".
A nitpick from brief OOTB testing would be planar/BA timbre, but this can perhaps be mitigated with eartip-rolling or source pairing.
Quite a promising IEM, will do some burn-in and comparisons against other tribrids and report back.
The Tin HIFI P1 Max II is a V-shaped planar.
This set is quite hard to drive, with 98 dB/mW sensitivity at 16 ohm. Sonics will scale with amplification as such.
From brief listening, it sports a lean V-shaped profile. Very technical sounding with an expansive soundstage when amped.
Treble-heads and technical junkies will love it, with good capturing of micro-details with accurate imaging. Without burn-in (OOTB), it is a wee bit sibilant, but I'll see if tip-rolling or burn-in may mitigate this.

I’ll pay max $20 for a DSP IEM lol.How many on this board believe Crinacle's Dusk (the new one) is a landmark iem. Value? If not, what are better choices in that price range? I have my own thoughts but am inquiring about yours. I have not listened to the Dusk.

Writing the name in two lines would be nicer So I will wait for that, and also for $25-$30, I would expect a hybrid from KZ. (CRA+ has been steepedly priced at first as well, then the price became more reasonable).I can't be the only one, that sees, what I see ?
