CCA Pianist Impressions: SPARKLE IN EVERY NOTE!

But that emphasis on the treble is what makes the Pianist such an interesting set. It’s no perfect treble set, even if I do hype it up to be as such. It’s far from being perfect. But for treble lovers who want an unhinged treble presentation and do not care about anything else, the Pianist is the instrument of choice.

KZ Castor (Bass ver.) Impressions: Impressively Clean

The Castor Bass Improved, also known as the Black is a set for those who love a lot of subbass and hates midbass. As a matter of fact, this is a must-buy for those who love a Harman-style tuned set with subbass emphasis, not a lot of midbass, and a lot of upper mids to treble to boot. It’s a genuinely fun, borderline bass-head set with a surprisingly clean and open sound for less than $20, but it can definitely use just a little bit more midbass presence. Just a little bit.

Yanyin Canon II Impressions: Quite a Surprise…

But in short, if you were to ask me in Q3 of 2023 what my favorite IEM that I’ve tried is, I can confidently tell you that it’s the Yanyin Canon II. I can’t tell you without going into a really really deep explanation why I like it so much. But all I can tell you is that this IEM has hit the right spots in my preference more than anything I’ve tried this year. It’s just a genuinely amazing set for my tastes.

LETSHUOER EJ07M Impressions: Jack of All-Trades

What the EJ07M lacks in flair makes up for in sheer inoffensiveness. It’s a very smooth yet well-balanced u-shaped set that neither shakes your buzzoms nor strips your music to its fundamentals. It’s a well-tuned, balanced set that regardless of what you throw, will play it with absolute certainty and enjoyability.

CCA DUO Impressions: BRINGING THE CLEAR IN CCA

The Duo brings the Clean in CCA. Not only in its lineup, but in it’s literal namesake. Clear Concept Audio takes two dynamics into one lean and mean set. A rather rare sight nowadays with the emergence for balanced or u-shaped sets following Harman and the like, yet respectable in how it was presented. A perfect set for lean, female vocal and trebleheads on a budget that is fine with KZ’s usual barebones presentation. Just avoid the marketing at all costs, I guess.

TINHiFi C0, “ELF” Impressions: TINHIFI IS BACK!

On my first few hours of listening, I can confidently say that these are quite a fun and energetic set for those who like an intimate vocal presentation and a little bit of treble spice

KBEar KW1 Impressions: Elegantly Unhinged.

The KW1 is confidently the Meze 99 classic in IEM form. On the outside, it shows itself as a classy, distinguished fellow. But deep down, this is a hard rocker sniffing powder down under. It’s a ludicrous amount of bass, probably too much. But I know for certain that someone out there with a desire for the dirtiest bass will adore this classy beast.

Tripowin x HBB Kailua Impressions: THE BAD BOY’S GOOD LUCK?

All in all, this is undoubtedly one of my favorite sets to come out of the HBB-tuned family. Such a rich listening experience that those warm-heads or people who follow HBB closely will surely love. I’d even argue this is his best-tuned budget set, although I’m definitely in the minority for that due to my slight bias toward this style of bass tuning. It’s not perfect, however, all thanks to that awful cable and tips, but it’s close. Very close.
