The fact that airpods are so popular is proof that most people prefer ergonomics and convenience over sound quality

I have Hexa, Og Olina, Cadenza, and Salnotes. Salnotes is a $20 banger, but the Cadenza is an upgrade at $35…better bass, mids, treble. Hexa and Olina trade blows, but the Hexa is very musical and euphoric and never offends my ears. The Olina still wins at being holographic. I use spinfit cp 100+ for all IEMs for better and tighter bass, better midrange and treble control, and open soundstage.

ER2SE is insanely good. Superb tuning and timbre. I'm blessed to be one of the few with no problem with the deep insertion.

Hey thanks for making this. Good to know that you are taking the comments seriously. Way to go buddy.

1:29 I don't know if you have access to Adorama, but they sell the er3se for 50 dollars every so often. I find it to be a step up from the er2, my current daily drivers. For example, less distortion on fast clarinet notes.

As for the bass-shy ness, the er2xr was less balanced and preferable to me overall, but there were tracks where it beat the er2se. I still preferred the er3 in those situations.

u r great! like ur perspective and insight. thanx

[nicolasduarte]

Thanks for talk about eq in the iems that you review

[eddusii]

Soundstage and imaging of 7Hz compare to the Hexa?

[taipan]

Thanks. Great review!!! Love your style of reviewing. Keep up the great work 😎👍

Hexa has a great base tuning for those who want to experiment. The airiness and layering that it provides is amazing and hard to get in its price range.
Detailwise it's right up there; a step below my sennheiser hd560s'. It has cleaner details but 560s has more nuance and i don't think it would be that easy for them to compete directly.

I've started with a few cheap then i've bought the Fiio FH3, then other cheap and last year I've buyed the Kato, the most expensive of my collection. I've been soo shocked for how little improvement that I've let them in the box for a few month. Now I think it's was worth to get and test the items from 20 to almost 200$. Obviusly there are good and bad iem, but the end it depends on what users you are. I've tried to make listen to music to a friend with qkz hbb, salnotes zero and the waner. QKZ win directly, waner meh and salnotes zero kick out instantly.
This is why when people ask for iem my first question is "what music you listen and what sound you like to get?" then we can talk how much you want to spend on the iem.
At the end the very important part is how you want to listen to music and enjoy it. All the audiophile terms is just wasting time at that point.

Great review. Can you recommend straight cables eim’s. I dont like the over the ear ones. 150 dollar range. Currently using shure 215 but don’t like over the ear cables. Thx.

[sukinelson]

I place comfort and stability ove sound because no matter how good it sound if you can’t get a good fit or it’s uncomfortable then you won’t want to wear it. Yes you can buy different tips but that might not be enough at least in my experience.

[peponline]

I have Hexa, Er2se and Zero.
They are all great !

[jeffli]

Would you recommend the Hexa or the ER2SE for on the go audio work, assuming both the price difference and the ergonomics of the ety were not an issue?

[hmf]

Hi, I was considering the Hexa for listening to vocals (male vocals similar to R&B). I listen to vocals-only audio.

How would you say the Hexas do at it's price range?

There is the new Kefine Delci that is said to be similar but with more well rounded bass and a little warmer. Would you be able to recommend one?

I prefer natural vocals with good clarity and just a little bit of energy.
