I’ve been familiar with Focal headphones for a long time, but in a one-track manner: for 5 years now, I’ve had amazing Focal Utopia in my personal use, which I haven’t wanted to change for anything over all this time. But the old Utopia are one thing, and the new Hadenys are a totally different thing.
I saw Soratune YI01 earphones on AliExpress by chance, and, prompted by the desire to try something unusual, I impulsively bought them for $73. Therefore, today we’ll talk about what kind of earphones they are, whether it’s worth paying attention to them, etc. Looking ahead, it’s worth it.
I know the EPZ company only by a single, but extremely successful earphone model, EPZ G10. It’s those ‘earphones with a flashlight included’. P50 is a completely different story both technologically and in terms of the price/self-presentation. This is a bid for ‘real’ sound for a little less than $200.
With this post, I would like to somehow summarize the year of 2024 and describe my vision of what is happening in the headphones and sound sources market at year-end.
I’ve recently decided, “It’s time to become a real reviewer!” What should a real reviewer have? The first, of course, is an unboxing knife: beautiful, sharp, dumb, but making an impressive picture.
The traditional final post in which I praise myself, regret, complain, share my plans, and thank everyone involved.
Which in-ear headphones and for what money should and should not be bought at the end of 2024.
I wrote a big article about my measuring rig more than two years ago. A lot of things have changed since then. Today I’ll tell you what the changes were like.
It’s impossible to take no notice of headphones, which are highly praised in all reviews without exception and about which everyone to a man is raving about. Today we’ll talk about FT1 by Fiio, another attempt to make it both good and cheap, for some $160, and even in a difficult class of closed-back models.
