Just got mine yesterday and its super good. Hands down best iem I own by far especially for the roughly 130usd with coupouns I paid for it. Again a great accurate review for this iem. Your particular unit looks so good. Although one question I have is would you consider this near basshead levels in bass quantity? Cause for me personally its not really near that basshead level like what some other reviews say but regardless this iem is still superb sounding.
It is just under the amount of bass I enjoy in the mid bass region. Bass head IEMs to me have a bit less ear gain than this to help bring out the bass more. I wouldn’t call this a true bass head IEM, however I think it has sufficient bass and quality bass so much so that a bass head could enjoy the set… if that makes sense… any less bass I might not have loved it as much haha
Nice review, could absolutely hear your excitement talking of these! I am looking for an upgrade to the Zero Reds, and its either these or the P5. Would you consider these a good jump? For reference, my favorite sound signature has to from the Audeze Maxwell.
@@HobbyTalk I went to check them and the also might be a good pick! I'm into progressive music with a lot of strings and vocals. Maybe they might just be it right?
You said "the TECHNICALI-TITTIES". ehehehehehe. These sound quite impressive though. From my understanding, these are the same as the Pula PA02, which I ended up ordering today after seeing so much good hype surrounding it. Hope they deliver.
I have tried P5, video is sitting in unlisted cause I haven’t gotten to posting it yet, I like this much more than P5 because of the upper mid and treble tuning
Hello man! Awesome review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One question: How are these compared to something like the Kiwi Ears Cadenza or the KZ Zs10 Pro X? Are the CKLVX a shock factor? Just curious cause these are the only ones I have and listened to for the past month amd I'm planning on ordering the D41s. Also what 75 ohm adapter are you using? (Saw that in your rank excel)
These destroy the cadenza in my opinion. Haven’t tried the KZ sorry. But ya, this is much much better than cadenza to me. I use the VE 75 ohm adapter. I should have a video on it with a link to the adapter.
@@HobbyTalk Thank you so much 🔥. That's all I needed to know. Ordered them and I'm so excited to give them a listen. I found the adapter in your vids also, much appreciated. Easy sub ⚡
Don't have these but ZS10 Pro X is an excellent set. Especially for the price. I got it for $13 and love it stock but I'm in the process of modding it to make it even better. If you have a chance auto EQ the ZS10 to this me let me know if there's a different sound. I'm gonna guess probably not.
If I didn't already have the Pula PA02 I'd probably be grabbing this one. From everything I've seen they're basically the same except for the obvious difference in appearance and cable. I was able to pick up my set on a sale for $145 and really like it so I'm sure I'd like this one too. Thank you for another great review! 👍
@@sleepyrhythms6668 hahaha glad you enjoy my jokes. I didn’t notice ear pressure problems really, but I’m not overly sensitive to that and I use foams and find that helps a lot.
Omg that case feels amazing inside lol! The zipper is smoooooooth! Man I want more of these cases! The tips…..meh like spinfit cp100 and kbear 07 had an ugly baby. Dollar tree spinfit basically, little messy. I never use stock tips, so that’s not a knock anyways lol.
@@Philwastakenfromme a cheap dongle like the apple dongle or similar should be good enough if your computer isn’t. I can’t say cause I don’t know your computers specs.
how is it compared to Yume 2 in terms of tuning. Im new and i have the kato and i felt like it's a bit shouty/in the face sometimes and mids a bit recessed/not forward. So i liked the yume 2 tuning wise when i tried it but the bass is a bit weird, and the technicalities are subpar. If you can, can you recommend me like an upgrade to the yume 2 too?
@@HobbyTalk Yeh, I was ready to get the CKLVX until I heard about the sl-41, but there's only 1 review of it at the moment! And it's too outside of my price range to grab off just 1 review, lol. But the other Sliivo model sounds like it's really good too!!
@@HobbyTalk Thanks for the reply. Was debating on these or the performer 5, but again, my main thing is having a good quality iem without needing a dac if I'm out and about
Thanks for the review❗️😎 Same with me Meteor kind of destroyed the hobby for me, Symphonium has sent me on different, new journey… anyway you have to be treble sensitive, because the Meteor has the smoothest treble ever😆🙋♂️❤️
You get me hahaha 😆 yeah Meteor destroyed the hobby for me, everything sounded like trash compared to it… BUT this was a nice surprise and gives me hope. Meteor is just so damn good though… one day I’ll convince a company to make a clone for 1/3 the price hahaha one day…
Im too tempted in buying these 😱🥰. I am waiting for the blessing x crinacle dusks and 7Hz Aurora. Im new to the hifi world and the only IEMs I have are Questyles M15 usbC. Which I am happy because its a 2 pin usb C cable with a built in dac and I want to try that cable with more IEMs. But I also have the m15 dac dongle by questyle.
I hope I get the chance to hear the new dusk… that being said, dusk costs quite a bit more than this and I’m not sure it’s that much better… not sure about the 7hz at all… but ya, take your time making purchase decisions, nothing is a rush.
Hello, I really need an advice as i truly belive in your reviews. I cant choose between d41 and dunu falcon ultra. I can get a deal falcon with velbet eartips only 40 dlls expensivier than d41 + a 30 dlls 6n monocryastalline copper cable that could be helpful for my kz as24(btw my best iem at the moment) i own ifi zen can signature 6xx and ifi zen dac v2. I mainly listen rock and 2000's numetal. Thanks in advance.
Personally I’d take the CK-D41 over the Falcon Ultra, that’s because I like BAs tho and don’t love DD treble. Some may say otherwise, but this CK-D41 is wild!
@@HobbyTalk haha i know! Thats cool, i didnt discover her music until late 2011, but fell in love. I listen to almost every music genre out there, but Lights the listening album has been playing alot now so when you said that, i took it as a sign so im getting them too now. Only other pair of iem i have is the Zero Red, and a bunch of over ear headphones
@@HobbyTalk bro, i just bought the CKLVX from meyer audio on ali, however they have to listings from the same store, same description and same pics but different price like 30 dollar difference, i bought the cheapest one, but am i missing something?
I typically use kz as24 and I guess they are kinda same size, my solution was dunu eartips small size. It was a game changer for me. So I guess if someone loves this ime but think their ears are small probably dunu s&s eartips could helps
@@HobbyTalk thanks for the reply, Can you please talk on below differences between the two (chopan vs d41) Soundstage/imaging/instrument separation Base Treble Thanks a lot in advance
@HobbyTalk this industry would die if everyone learned how to tune. Lol. Qkz HBB with a better cable? Damn, at least the look better! I just returned my OG EDx PRO and EDx PRO X(balanced bass unlike og) . They sound so good that I can't put them down or pick my jaw off the floor. Kept ProX on the brighter side and gave OG a warmer tuning with pretty big 3d soundatage!
@HobbyTalk Red Katacco is very similar to the Kiwi Ears Cadenza too, blue one supposedly tuned more like the Mele. Went down a rabbit hole with this brand, supposedly Penon in there, Pula and tbh could be anything chi-fi
Myer says Red and blue Katacco are the exact same tuning and model number. Same graph. I love my Katacco and the cable is very nice. My dog unfortunately chewed through one of the nozzles so I'm trying to to figure out how to fix. Katacco and D1 are sold out and discontinued.
@@alexandersimon8647 I don't want to buy a replacement, I want to fix my set which I got for only $13. I really like it's look too. I think it's slightly diff to Cadenza. If I do replace, will probably get KB Ear KB01 which is Cadenza. Plus I got D-Fi for next to nothing, seems it's also similar. Do you know? MYER is getting new single DD, they are waiting for stock.
This could absolutely be end game for most people and it’s under $300. WILD!
Can get it for about $120 in US. Not to be confused with the single DD again 🙄🤣
Nice technicalitiddies bro. We finally share an IEM in our top list. Glad you enjoyed it.
LOL 😂 it’s loved by you and me? It must be good…
mines based on smiles but its top 3 atleast it might be number 1@@HobbyTalk
@@dylanangel2870 yeah it is!
@@HobbyTalk and they are really dang close to your METEOR!
Who doesnt enjoy a great technicalitiddie f* from their IEM's? 🥳
Nice glad you found theese too. The PULA PA02 is the same IEM
Huh… and basically same price… good to know!
Ignore that guy, he's tone deaf😝 it's def the same. Pula claims they aren't affiliated but Myer says they make both brands and a few others.

Totally! So glad you guys got me on to them!

Thanks for the review! How would this compare to the Tangzu x HBB Heyday Edition? Would you prefer this one over that?
I’d much prefer this to heyday myself… they have some similar vibes but the CKLVX is better bass. CKLVX is a bit more versatile as well.
You said "the TECHNICALI-TITTIES". ehehehehehe. These sound quite impressive though. From my understanding, these are the same as the Pula PA02, which I ended up ordering today after seeing so much good hype surrounding it. Hope they deliver.
Yeah, they seem real similar! Lol but hopefully you like the PA02 as much as I liked this thing.
Hi Hobby nice review!
Im confused between these and Aful P5 , have you tried p5 if yes can you make a comparison video if possible! Thanks
I have tried P5, video is sitting in unlisted cause I haven’t gotten to posting it yet, I like this much more than P5 because of the upper mid and treble tuning
This is making me more excited.
Heck ya! I hope you like it as much as I do!
They took a month to reach me, but it was well worth it! I think my em6l has been dethroned for my budget banger.

I hear that, they look a pinch different on the graph in the treble but probably just how it’s seated or something.
Nice review! You sound very impressed by these. There are two of the same at two different prices in the link or am I wrong?
Yeah it looks that way… not sure why
How’s ear pressure build up over time? That vent looks so tiny.
Liked video for technicalitities

You are very excited for this. It's great. Can you compare this with the performer 5?
I have the P5 on the way to review from Danny. Danny told me this is better though especially in the bass.
Oh, great, thanks. I must be ask him. I know he like the both. Thanks again
Thanks for the review! How would you compare these to the Chopin? And would you say they are an upgrade?
I like the mid bass quantity on the Chopin but prefer the CKLVX
This video makes me wanna buy it. like now. hehehe... I felt your passion. Appreciate it!
Subscribed for the passion... Looking forward for more great content.
appreciate it! I am not always this passionate haha only when products are legit good at their price. but I appreciate it very much!
Do you think this goes toe to toe to the Aful P5? Also for someone who listen to vocals more would you recommend this?
I was told by Danny this is better, I have P5 on the way to borrow and try.
Omg that case feels amazing inside
lol! The zipper is smoooooooth! Man I want more of these cases! The tips…..meh like spinfit cp100 and kbear 07 had an ugly baby. Dollar tree spinfit basically, little messy. I never use stock tips, so that’s not a knock anyways lol.
Yeah I never use stock tips usually myself lol but I did use these foams…
I have a question, do you need a DAC for this? I have a laptop but idk if that's enough to get the full sound out of this.
@@Philwastakenfromme a cheap dongle like the apple dongle or similar should be good enough if your computer isn’t. I can’t say cause I don’t know your computers specs.
So where is the better and more powerful bass, in Sliva or in D41? Especially for rock and metal
