I’ve been trying to come up with something intelligent as an introduction for a long time, but decided to say the hell with it: I just liked the unusual appearance of YU9 U-556. That is, it was clear from the very beginning that it is conceptually something a la Etymotic, but judging by the unusual shape of the enclosures, it seems to be made for normal human ears. Up to a point, of course.
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.
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.
Which in-ear headphones and for what money should and should not be bought at the end of 2024.
