I’m relatively new to the world of in-ear monitors, and my first pair was the Blon Bl-03. While I’m not entirely certain about the sound signature I favour, I can share the genres of music I typically listen to. My preferences span Bollywood hits from the 90s and 2000s, Indian Pop, EDM (especially trap), and genres like Hip-hop and R&B. Budget is 200$ at strech. I don't have any Dac/Amp. I've been eyeing a few options and would love your insights - 1. Simgot EA500LM 2. Oriveti OD200 3. Letshuoer S12 pro Any other suggestions within the budget are also appreciated.
Without hesitation EA500LM is the best option. S12Pro is incredible but needs a good source and power behind it ....being a planar makes it power hungry If Planar is what you are also considering Artti T10 is a very solid choice . But honestly go for the LM
I agree with akros the s12 pro if you can get on sale (130) or find open box maybe? I got mine open box for 90, but usually they are around 100 open box will be perfect for what you listen to. I have a lot of genres I like but the s12 pro is my GO TO whenever I am listening to any energetic music like k-pop, punk, post hardcore, etc. I would highly recommend if you want to spend a bit more over the EA500LM or can't find any open box.
adding the comment in the latest video as well, Amazing review once again! One request, I know its a lot of work, but it will massively help your peeps if you have some kinda ranking list, i really find my preference similar to mine, hence would always would want to know how you would rate the IEMs so that many can take their purchase decisions based on that! I am willing to help create one if you wish to!
I have the BLON BL-03, which to my recollection also has a 1 DD made of beryllium. Wondering if this newer R1 is offering a justifiable reason to buy over my venerable BL-03.
It looks excellent! I was looking for exactly this type of tuning: relaxing, smooth, organic. But I ended up buying the Bloon HBB Z300. It's only now that I discovered the Artti R2 and I'm in doubt: would the Artti R2 be better than the Blon Z300 when it comes to this more organic and smooth type of tuning? Thank you and greetings from Brazil.
I would purchase the ea500LM, and use them alongside the galileo to see how you like the combo. You can sell whichever one you don't like on the online forums, and if you end up liking both of them, keep them. P.S. i like the your lie in april profile photo 👍
I watch many of your video but i admit it's too much to keep up, it would be very helpful if you could narrow it down to top 5 pick for certain price bracket like (under $100, 200, 300) once in a while 😁
Hi Tony, i like a smooth sound with a bit of a lift in the sub bass and no sibilance in the treble, i am deciding between the Delci or the Artti R2, what would you recommend?
@@akros9333 Jayaudio (i do not know if you know his channel) he told me today to go for the EPZ Q1 Pro and eqthe bass 2db up and the mids 1 or 2 db less and that would be the best between those 3 iems. I am already more then happy that you always take the time to respond but i am only curious what your opinion in this matter will be, thanks Tony!
They dont have the first 2 editions of the x one anymore its all version 3 now until the have a mk4 they keep making it better i have the 2 first and ordered a new one
"I could have brought out a lot more IEMs"
Good to see you back Tony ❤

I just recieved the xsl x one mk3 in black marvelous

Great review.
R2 or R1?
Hi Akros, which IEM under $100 has the tightest bass? It could be DD, Planar or BA, I don't mind but want the tightest, tactile bass
those shell remind me of tartans.
I like your super revieuws

Olá Adriano....sem dúvida o R2 é superior ao Z300..... é uma diferença grande....não ....o Z300 é energético e suave, enquanto o R2 é "silky smooth"
Muito obrigado! Thank you! @@akros9333
Thanks, another great review! Will you review the new Neo 3?
Coming this weekend
Pula PA01 vs R2? what are your thoughts about comparing music genres, soundstage? Both are in the similar price range
Cable black too
I already own the gizaudio galelio is it worth the upgrade to the ea500LM? Or do you think it compliments the galelio?
Galelio os my first IEM.
I would purchase the ea500LM, and use them alongside the galileo to see how you like the combo. You can sell whichever one you don't like on the online forums, and if you end up liking both of them, keep them.

I couldn't disagree more 😭 the reason I love his chanel is for the long and super in depth comparisons.
Hi Tony, i like a smooth sound with a bit of a lift in the sub bass and no sibilance in the treble, i am deciding between the Delci or the Artti R2, what would you recommend?
They both follow that principal..... but Delci does it better!

R2 vs SiE? Thank you.
Can you review the Pula pa02 please and do a comparison with this one and the Simgot ea500LM?
I will do that review... waiting for PA02 to arrive
Which IEM is the one on the white cable?
XLS X1. Careful as they’re 3 versions. The first is the most bass heavy and they lessened it a bit and altered tuning slightly in the newer versions.
They dont have the first 2 editions of the x one anymore its all version 3 now until the have a mk4 they keep making it better i have the 2 first and ordered a new one
