TRI I4 earphone
Budget Earphones Review 

TriAudio I4 Review (2) – The Schizophrenic Debutante

September 12, 2019August 31, 2021 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 3 Comments

Nicely machined, with a premium feel and look; tangly cable is nonetheless ergonomic and free from microphonics.

Semkarch CNT1
Budget Earphones Review Thumbs Up 

Semkarch CNT1 Review – Carbon Nanotubes For The Masses

August 30, 2019October 1, 2020 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 5 Comments

More and more I’m convinced that at least in the budget realm, well-realized single DDs like the CNT1 are a better pick than the multi-driver monstrosities flooding the market.

Moondrop Kanas Pro Review (3) – Profiles In Chromium

August 16, 2019August 30, 2021 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 2 Comments

Overall, I like the MKP more than my colleagues did—they show a mature, non-fatiguing signature which should appeal to most.

Budget Earphones Review Thumbs Up 

NiceHCK NX7 Review (1) – Another Piezo My Heart

August 2, 2019October 23, 2021 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 2 Comments

The NX7 immediately registers as a very bright, very detailed phone which, like the N3, has a treble-forward, reverse L-shape which deemphasizes lowend…

NiceHCK HK6 Review – Ruthlessly Revealing

July 11, 2019December 5, 2020 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 0 Comments

Polarizing IEM has been lauded for its giant soundstage and ruthlessly revealing presentation and criticized for its overemphasized midbass…

Einsear T2 Review – Another Cheap Gem

June 11, 2019December 5, 2020 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 4 Comments

CCA C10 Review – Second Opinion

June 3, 2019December 5, 2020 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 0 Comments

The C10 are actually the first KZ model I’ve heard since the ED9 that have this sort of unforced spontaneity and these point to a very promising direction.

KZ ZS10 Pro Review – Another Step Forward

May 22, 2019October 1, 2020 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 0 Comments

Simgot EM2 Review I – Refined and Revealing

May 2, 2019October 23, 2021 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 0 Comments em2, review, Simgot

The Simgot EM2 is very efficient and easily driven with a mobile; however these also scale well with more powerful sources, which deepens subbass impact.

Hisenior B5+ Review – Accurate

April 15, 2019December 5, 2020 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 0 Comments earphone review, Hisenior B5

10BA unit emulates the flat tuning and accuracy of high-dollar CIEMs to a degree which would have been unheard of at this $100 pricepoint only a few years ago.

Audbos Tenhz P4 Review – Quad Pro Quo

April 11, 2019December 5, 2020 Loomis T. Johnson (Chicago, USA) 0 Comments Audbos P4, earphone review, Tenzh P4

These will have considerable appeal to fans of a warmer, less treblecentric sound.
