  • Опубліковано 13 жов 2023
  • There's a gap in the IEM market between $300 and $500 where there really aren't a lot of notable options. With the recent arrival of the Aful Performer 8 and, now, the Yanyin Canon II, this price point is heating up. But just how notable is the Canon II? And who might want this sound? Let's talk about it.

    Just got this IEM and its amazing. The bass is amazing on every setting. I have yet to find something that it doesn't handle super well.
    I personally love the look of it. It looks like the side of a cool looking fish.

    Canon 2 looks like something that would pair well with the Moondrop S8 signature wise.
    Looking forward to the upcoming 11.11 sales, I'm considering both as a "budget" endgame option.

    what eartips are you using and do they change the sound ?

    • @SuperReview
      @SuperReview  8 місяців тому

      The tips in this video are Softears Ultra Clears I believe. Tips can have some impact on sound, but it is particular to an individual's fit -- I don't think it is generalizable.

    Now if something is higher than a very solid 4 stars. Does that mean you'll give it a Very Very solid 4 stars or is it like a very extra Solid 4 stars or are we jumping to 5 stars?

      I quite like Marks rating system, 3 stars is basically a skip. 4 stars is considered as worth a price/Good/minor issue from tuning or technical performance. 5 stars for a absolute he’s preferred signature or something punch way above the price for products offering in the market right now.

    Hmm, the graph seems similar to KE Orchestra Lite. A little warmer and darker, maybe.
    A good bit of distance in price there but, curious how these two compare?

      Xenns Up are a different price bracket and set up. Not really a comparison. Both Canon and UP have great Bass. Don't own the sa6 tho, but reviews are mixed and it seems over hyped.

    I love my P8, favorite signature ever. It’s super warm but that warmness doesn’t come from the bass, and I’m at a loss to explain it. Musical or full of melody perhaps? Gives me tea 2 vibes but way more technical

    Shame that a $380 iem with switches doesn’t come with a tiny switch tool when a $22 iem like the KZ Castor with switches does. I’d bet that the Castor is a better listen as well if you like your bass.
