Wood You Believe It? Twistura’s DD Stands Tall
When I was asked if I’d like to review this one, I jumped at the opportunity. I love single DD’s and the cohesive sound they bring so couldn’t wait to try this one out. The Twistura WoodNote uses a wood diaphragm (10mm), in a dual chamber config. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a wood…

JUZEAR x Z Reviews Defiant – Groove Mode: Engaged
The Defiant comes in cheaper than my usual price point, however for its inclusions and sound you’d be forgiven for thinking that it’s more expensive than it is. Let’s get into it! Build & Accessories:The Defiant arrived in a really nice box. The packaging includes the IEMs (surprise), a modular cable with both 3.5mm and…

250 sets in… and the Kiwi Ears Septet still surprised and delighted me
What an intriguing set! I’ve had open TWS before, but I don’t think I’ve had an open IEM, at least nothing memorable. In my headphone stable I have many, many open sets so was looking forward to how this would translate, and if some of the upsides (and downsides) of open sets would come with…

ZiiGaat Lush
A step away from the ordinary Thanks to Linsoul for the chance to review these. All thoughts are my own and not influenced in anyway. ZiiGaat have been making waves in the IEM sea for the past year, I’ve been a big fan of their other models (I own most of them) so was excited…

Kiwi Ears Airoso
Thanks to Linsoul for a review unit, all thoughts are my own. I’ve spent a week with these as my daily drivers. I have 124 IEMs, and 109 full-size headphones from budget sets to TOTL so have experience across many price points and listen to a lot of music. Rating is based on its price…

AüR Audio Aurora
Listening to some Shpongle through this IEM, happy days. It has a laidback sound which pairs perfectly with Psybient music. The bass is quite unique, has a wavy texture which I haven’t really come across before in an IEM. The iBasso DC04Pro is also an awesome little dongle, 4.4mm balanced and 3.5mm SE output. Also,…

Another day, another IEM
The AüR Audio Neon Pro arrived yesterday, looking very nice here with the Effect Audio Eros S 1st anniversary edition cable: Initial impressions are great! They have a bass switch, which increases (or decreases depending on how you look at it) the bass by 3db. I’ve tried them in both, think I prefer off, but…

AK x VE – Aura update
So after landing on the spinfits I was still having an issue with my right ear. I spent the weekend tip rolling, finally (!) landing on the Sennheiser Foam tips from the IE series. These create a great seal, which doesn’t budge when moving, and surprisingly the filter on the tip doesn’t impact the sound.…

Astell&Kern x Vision Ears – Aura
So I’ve treated myself to the AK x VE Aura’s. They arrived at the start of this week and, while I’m still gathering my thoughts, they combine what I loved about the VE Phonix with some amazing DD bass. Bliss. My thoughts on the Phonix (from head-fi post): The pairing of the EXT with the…
